Portsmouth over West could very well happen. It could be a very good pitchers duel if both go with their aces, which they should. Ryan Williams (PHS) vs Marty Knittle (PWHS) will both keep game low scoring and close. Could come down to which team commits the most errors. Just saw where this game will be on 1260 AM tomorrow night.

It will be interesting to see if Adena's freshman class will have an impact next year. For a small school, it's a loaded baseball class.

Se-alum. Freshman class make small impact maybe one or two. The sophomore class jv team is 36-1 this year and last year. Adena loses 10 seniors. But solid sophomore and few freshman this year will help out next year.

I wasn't real clear, I was wondering about the incoming Freshman class(this years 8th graders). I can see Garrison, Bennett, and Sykes seeing some varsity time next year.

Toss a coin, that decision will not be made until 30 minutes prior to the game..... they have Edler, Ooten, and Sigler available who have pitched over 30 innings each with ERA's of 1.43 or under

Who will Adena throw? Free or Dawson. I don't think it matters?

It shouldn't matter in the semi finals, so maybe go with #2 to set up your best against Wheelersburg in the Final.

The two SVC teams left are really different in personnal. Adena (13-12) has like 10 seniors. Zane Trace (18-10) sometimes has as many as three freshman and 3 or 4 sophomores on the field at one time. They do have a veteran pitcher though.

Adena cruises over Chesapeake, 7-0. Gunnar Free pitched a great game, with none of the 3 hits he allowed being well struck balls. He kept the Panthers off balance the whole night. Dratwa and Henness each had big hits to help break things open, with Henness' triple being the dagger.

If Dawson can pitch to the level that he has at times this season, they definitely have a chance to beat Wheelersburg on Saturday. No SVC team has defeated Burg in the tournament since 2007, which equates to an 0-13 mark in that time.

I think that is the last time that Wheelersburg did not win a District title.
Zane Trace defeated Wheelersburg 1-0 in eight innings at Jackson in 2007.

Freshman Jeremy Lambert throws a complete game. 4 consecutive 2 out hits in the 5th led them to 4 runs. Congratulations to Coach Allen and the Pioneers.

Really good baseball game, the Warriors just couldn't string together hits. Congrats on the fine season.

3rd place (SVC) beats OVC Champ 6-2, while Adena shuts out the other OVC opponent.

I'm sorry, but the level of baseball isn't even comparable. Since 2010, the SVC has won 19 District level games in D3 alone (Unioto has won 5 in D2) while the OVC has won 3. If we include the entirity of the SEODAB website, it is even worse, 32-5 would be the score in District games won :o
