Thanks for the lineup. Looks like another strong lineup of games. Anyone know who some of the premier players at this years tournament will be? I know ohio state recently offered a young man from col northland. Also I believe one of the Florida schools has a highly rated player as does HMA. Thanks f...

I know Hargrove m.a. has some highly touted players. 3 rated in the top 150 of the 2013 class. anyone know of other players that will be playing which may be college prospects? I believe 1 or 2 boys from h.m.a are committed to Louisville, perhaps coach Pitino will make a return trip to ironton. I am...

Hats off to Portsmouth, they came to play. Seems like to big a stage for ironton. They just don't play fundamental enough when matched with great talent.

Has there been any word on potential college coaches in attendance for the classic? It was neat seeing rick pitino and bob Huggins last year. Hopefully if "the mouth" decides to announce who's there he won't butcher it like last year.

Hate to hear Oak Hill Academy wont be back but Northland and Taft should bring some nice teams down to Ironton. I know Taft will be loaded. Anyone know what Northland might have this coming season? Its nice when you can get those loaded teams and nationally recruited players in that you just dont se...

I had heard a rumor Oak Hill Academy might come back this year. They were fun to watch. Would love to see them take on Huntington Prep. WoW, that would be a game. I know Chesapeake has played numerous times, Cincy Princeton, Campbell Memorial. I'm sure St. Joe will kick it off with a great game. Per...

Many people have been asking me what teams might be playing in the Ironton Classic this season. I know people from fairly far away that have started hearing about the competition and talent level at the Classic. These folks are interested in coming to town to see it and keep hounding me as to who mi...

Come on Trojans, bring the state back to southern Ohio.

I agree it was nice having a decent announcer for that OH/Princeton game. Man my ears were hurting after 3 games of the other stuff. Especially that pregame and halftime, ouch! Was surprised they would start announcing Calipari was on his way if he was'nt. Dont say things you cant deliver. I'm no UK...

Here is a link to the recent article in the Ironton Tribune about the Classic. This will answer most of the questions people have about the event.

Those are good questions instructor, I'll have to find that out for you. I know last year that they sold all day tickets. You could come and go as you please. They even had shuttles all day going to and from Buffalo Wild Wings and the Ironton Hills Plaza. I'm not sure about the cost of a ticket, I'l...

Man that is one impressive list of schools. Should be one heck of a classic. I could'nt make it last year but I'm sure I will this year. With a list of programs like this no sportsfan in the tri state should miss the talent that will be on hand. You just don't get to see players and programs going h...

I'm gonna join both and I'll stread the word. I know alot of Ironton sports fans.

I agree with ya hitchbone, I do believe I'town will recover. It still seems as though I'town is still struggling to find that good cohesivness. If everyone stays healthy they'll get there, hopefully about the time playoffs start. Thats always a good time to peak. I'm just glad Chilli and I'town are ...

Was not at the game but from what it sounded like on the radio I was close in my idea of how this game would go. Game was very intense with alot of energy. When you are on the road and things start going south as they usually will at some point against good teams your true colors usually come out. H...

Has the makings of a very good game. Both teams are obviously talented. Chilli is playing very good ball right now, they need this win for conference standing, they are at home and of course a little payback to I'town. Ironton also needs this win. They need it for conference standing obviously also ...

Wells will be a good back in the nfl, how good probably will depend upon his health. While he is very good between the ends he has not been a factor in the passing game or getting outside very often. Wells would probably be best served in a system where time is split among backs. Many nfl teams use ...

The worst team may very well be San Diego. The Padres have dumped payroll and every decent player they had. Having to play LA, Arizona and Colorado so many times will make it even tougher. As for the best team thats tough to say. Its easy to pick the teams that spend all the money and pick up the ov...

Those are some very impressive scores. I hope some of these jv, frosh and 8th grade scores carry over to varsity ball in the coming years. It would appear by these scores I'town should have some good teams in the coming years.
