Re: Eastern (Pike County) Boys Jr. High Tournament

Waverly 8th beat Portsmouth 8th 44-43 in overtime last night in the first match-up of the night. The Tigers had not played for almost three weeks and definitely came out a little rusty. Portsmouth played well, and really should have probably won the ball game. Waverly was down 5 with about 1 minute ...

Re: Coaches have no true friends do they?

That is very well said, and I'm sorry you've obviously experience this behavior. This is really the very reason I left coaching. I played college football, and when I came home, I had a true passion for helping kids. I coached varsity football for several years, then moved to the little leagues when...

Wow, I haven't been on here in a while...so sorry to hear about Josh. I met him through some youth basketball tournaments when my son was younger...good guy. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and the Lucasville community.

Re: Waverly at Burg

Cats, I agree. Minford, Waverly, West, and Burg are all very competitive. You throw in our non-league of Portsmouth and Jackson, and it's a heck of a schedule! I'm excited that the Tigers have some talent in the lower levels...hopefully that will translate to some varsity success in the next few yea...

Re: WK3 (1-1) Waverly @ (1-1) Washington

The Tigers have to do a better job up front with inexperienced QB's in the backfield. The Oline is working hard, but must develop better consistency. We'll have great effort for two plays, then we take a powder. The backs also have to try to stay out of bad plays by getting downhill and understandin...

Waverly at Burg

Waverly is coming off a tough double OT loss to the Falcons (not sure what the Pirates did), so they will be hungry for a win. Last year's game came down to OT, so the Pirates will be looking for revenge...should be a good one.

Re: Jr. High football week two:

I think Minford coming to Waverly should be a very good game in the 8th grade.

Re: Jr. High football week one:

Waverly 8th over Vinton County 32-8. Tigers are a much improved team with some people switching positions on both sides of the ball.

Re: Division II District Semifinal games (May 20-21)

With all the talk about two games going on at once on here, I think the teams that played in the first game (Gallia and Fairfield Union) decided to play one game that lasted as long as two. :) Waverly/Logan Elm was supposed to start at 7:00, but didn't start until around 9:00 p.m. It was 4 very good...

Although D.R. is a very strong supporter of the program, he doesn't have time to coach and isn't interested in the job. :)

Re: Boys Jr high bball scores week of 1-21-13

Yeah, it sounds like your schedule looks like mine. My son played for Key Player last year, and that's a pretty good haul for me a couple times per week. He told me last night he wants to play J.H. baseball this year, too, and of course football in the fall...WHEW! I love every minute of it, though!

Re: Waverly vs. Chillicothe 7th grade boys

Well, it was another great game last night! The Tigers go down again, but they didn't go quietly. Playing the game with one starter out b/c of sickness, and another playing part-time after getting over a sickness, the Tigers couldn't get over the hump last night. They were down 8 with under 2:00 to ...

Re: Eastern Boys JR High Tourn?

Wow, a 4-team tourney...yipeee! It's a shame that the SOC is so pitiful when it comes to organizing their junior high sports programs. No league championships, no league tourneys....NADA! The SVC is light-years ahead of us in this regard.
