Re: Dont schedule games if you are not going to play them

I have been at Alexander for quite a while. I can tell you that would not happen. I hate traveling to Chesapeake only to lose ball games, but our AD will not get out of games. Our girls have traveled all over SEO this year and the past years to play the best competition. I know nothing about this si...

Re: OHSAA to Refs: enforce the "Rolled Shorts" rule, or get written up

I don't get why kids started rolling their shorts and I don't think it looks good, but I would say that as long as they tuck in the string that it really shouldn't be an issue. I haven't seen it enforced at the varsity level during a game, I'm guessing it is addressed in the Captain's meeting, but ...

Re: Jackson 75 Alexander 72... 2 OT

It was a great game. The people I was sitting with did not know why Caleb was not playing. We hope everything is OK with him for the tournament run. The mecum boy has had a great year and should be considered for all tcv second team. Stone is getting back to full speed and play just a great game las...

Re: Tuesday 2-13 games and results

Man, it was a great game. I just feel like we have got to figure out how to win these games.

Nice job by the Jackson team. Alex played had, just did not finish.

Go Alex.

Thoughts on running clock in tournament?

So last night Alexander's tournament game with Westfall went to a running clock situation when the Lady Spartans extended their lead to 35+ points in the second half. What are your thought on the running clock in the post season? Personally, for post season I am not totally against it. I don't like ...

Congratulations to Coach Combs. What he has accomplished at Vinton County is extraordinary. The standard of the TVC.

Good luck in the tournament.

Re: VC @ Alex

It’s always tough to get a win in the alley! I look to see Eli griffith get more playing time as Alexander’s weakness is an athletic big man! I’m gonna take Vinton County by 15, look for Nevan Yates to have a big game, thinking they will probably try to face guard naylan Have you actually seen Alex...

Re: Coaches Handshakes

I am pretty sure it is expected at regional and state tournament for teams to shake hands with the opposing coach prior to the games. I guess if you don't expect to make it to that level, then it is ok not to shake hands. I personal think you should practice what you are preparing for in the future....

Re: NY vs Alex

The Spartans are playing better than they did in the first matchup and it looks like NY is going in the opposite direction. I am not predicting another 40 point loss for the buckeyes, but I do think the Spartans will win by 20. This is just a matchup issue for NY. Alex can guard the Boyer kid with a...

Re: Nelsonville-York @ Meigs 1-12-2017

Meigs should win this game. They are 15 points better than NY.

NY the only team to beat VC so far and has not won another game in the TVC - Ohio.

Go TVC.

Re: Possible POY in TVC

To me Griffin Lutz should get player of the year. It is evident he was the biggest reason Athens was so good the past two years. He is missed a great deal... (a little tongue in cheek) Best players are Yates and Speakman. Then maybe Hines, but I am not sure Hines will get the most votes from his tea...

I don't dispute the roads are bad and it ended up being a good decision to call off the game against Jackson last night... just having some fun with your ability to estimate measurements... :lol:

He has really played well. He changes Alexander's defense by being a real shot block specialist. Would like to see him get the ball a little more in the low post, but he is doing a nice job.

Go Alex.

After seeing both, Athens will win by 20+. Athens will get any shot they want. This will be a track meet. The winner will be in the 80's.

Re: Athens vs Alexander

I think Alex wanted it more. They just hung around the whole game and pulled it out down the Stretch. They outhustled Athens tonight. I think the X-Factor Was Brian Mecum for Alex. He was everywhere on the floor, made some clutch shots and played great Defense. Kam Riley and The Kearns boy made big...
