Re: Pitch Count Is Here!!!

You could but that kid would get shelled! Educated coaches is the answer. You can abuse any system you put in. Some arms (along with proper technique) handle 30 pitches better than others. I throw thirty today and I cant brush my teeth in the morning! lol! If a kid throws 120 pitches on Monday and c...

Re: Convo: #2 Portsmouth vs. #6 South Point 3/5 (3:45PM)

Congrats to Kendall. This game is a toughy! I'm gonna go with Portsmouth for the simple fact that South Point is not disciplined enough to win a close game. Point has been in a lot of close ones but struggle to finish. JMO.

Re: 2017 Fairland Dragons

The problem with the Dragons the last 5-10 years has been upfront. Even the good teams were limited there. It has been plugging the levy as far as the line goes.

Re: Convo: #1 Fairland vs. #4 Piketon 3/5 (2PM)

Athens is a different beast. I have seen good teams get beat by average ones. In my opinion, teams that rely on the 3 pt line struggle when they reach Athens. The background difference at the Convo vs. smaller high school gyms affect their shooting. Teams that pound it down low tend to do better. Fa...

Re: Pfloyd's Elite 8 of Southern/SouthEast Ohio Week #10

I would agree dave. Trojans will be a tough out for anyone. The Trojans lack of a dominate inside game hurts but they play sound defense and shoot it pretty well. Van Horn turns the Dragons into a contender just because of his defense. He eliminates drives to the basket and allows Fairland's quick g...

Re: Fairland @ Ironton 1/27/17

This game will be closer than the first. Van Horn changed the game with 3 blocked shots early. He turned the Tigers into a jump-shooting team which they are not real good at. Since he is out, look for the Tigers to attack the rim. Guarantee the officials will let this be a "banger" game an...

Re: Pitch Count Is Here!!!

Wow. Better have some depth. Also spending up the high school game just died a quick death. Pitching changes in the middle of the inning will cost an extra 15-20 a game. Personally i don't see the benefit in this. Any coach that is worth anything wouldn't jeopardize his pitcher. I've seen it done bu...

Re: 2017 OVC Preview/Predictions

Its Ironton's title to lose. I do look for more improvement from the Trojans. Its gonna take a couple of years to change the Redmen but if they do, look out. That's a program waiting on the right guy. South Point might as well give up and play soccer on Friday nights. No Shot there. Panthers will be...

Re: TEAM comes first

One thing I like about Fairland's team. 4 different kids have led the team in scoring this season. Maybe 5 not sure if their 6 man did one game or not. He was close.

Only transfer on that team is Howell. He came in Jr. High. Cunninghams family moved in 2 years ago from maetwan wva when his dad was named head football coach.

Re: [=== OVC (2016-17) ===] -- Schedule/Results/Standings

I think this will be a barn burner. GA will be fired up for the Dragons minus their big man. Look for a 10 pt game in favor of the Dragons
