I watched last night too and it wasn’t pretty. I didn’t see Copley? Was he hurt? I saw him leave Saturdays scrimmage after diving for a ball. I saw a lot of freshmen out there in spots last night that they were not the other times I watched. Maybe coach was seeing who could do what. I have seen them...

Saturday was a great day to watch. I saw some good and some things that were not so good. Ontario is tough. Nolan will get them playing their best ball at tournament time. That has happened with his teams since he started there.

I was able to stop for a few innings the other night and Valley looked pretty good. Pitchers were a little wild but they were blowing ND away. The hitting against the Cassidy kid was really good. Valley has talent for sure. But I did see a lot of young players too. Valley will be a tough team but I ...

Copley has been pretty awesome on the court but I understand your point because he’s a darn good baseball player. Saw the same thing with Powell. You don’t see 90 much around here.

That’s a good run down as well. But as someone who follows Valley, I think Rideout would be the other pitcher besides Powell. He has pitched and played really well the last two years. That’s not discounting McNeil at all. Rideout has been a good player for two years. They also return a top notch cat...

jujubean that’s a nice run down from what I remember about the league. How will the new conference schedule affect SOC 3?

I have yet to see the matchups but I have heard it is 2 games a week. I bet someone will be fortunate enough to throw their best in all big games.

Final

I believe 17-2 is Valley's record. The final score was 9-0. Valley played a lot of kids last night.

Valley's strength is definitely pitching, defense, and hitting in that order. But having watched them many times so far, their hitting is very solid. The only lower scoring outputs were against very good pitching. If the hitting picks up a notch or two, they're tough to beat. The two performances I ...

Big upset last night.

SW 3 - Minford 2

This is one I’ve been waiting for! I normally go with conference loyalty, but after the utter lack of class the Valley Indian fans showed in Waverly last time, there’s no way I can be on that train. I hope the Western Indians beat the brakes off of you!! Must’ve been pretty bad As usual, it depends...

Kind of surprised that Valley is being viewed as the underdog on here. They have 4 losses, 2 to Waverly, 1 to Minford, and 1 to South Webster. They had a lead or were tied in the 4th quarter of all 4. They've had some ups and downs in their play, but they've been tested all year long. Both teams are...

Agree with this this. I didn't think there were any cheap fouls by either side. The calls that were made followed pretty substantial contact.

I’ll die on the hill that it was still a poorly officiated game. Just a shame to see Zimmermans last game end with him playing roughly 8 minutes after we jumped all over Valley. Well, RIP I guess. SW had to grab and bump to keep Valley from moving and going. Valley was slightly quicker and better 1...

Should never have happened this early in the tournament but here we are. Will be a battle no doubt. Agree but we’ll take being the dangerous 7 all day if the TVC and SOC1 wanna do us like that. I agree you are a dangerous 7 and it's on the TVC and SOC I, but Valley is the one that got done like tha...

That half by Valley was so impressive. They are playing at a high level right now.

Top notch hire for Valley. Sounds like a great staff in place too. I do not necessarily agree that the same amount of winning would have taken place under the old staff. It seemed there was a major disconnect between the players and the coach. I have heard many stories for and against the previous c...

It looks like the information I was hearing about Persin has made its rounds. I do not believe Valley will be a league favorite this year at all, the majority of their talent are freshmen and sophomores. I do believe that being in D4 will make them very dangerous the next 3-4 years in tournament pla...

It’s odd that West isn’t catching the same flack as Valley for letting a young coach go. Best of luck to coach Hafer in the future.

Heard a very interesting rumor for the Valley job. Really shocked me. I am not sure how much truth there is to it though because it seems very unlikely.
