... 5 of my Elite 8 teams are playing in the Regional Semi's with Cinderella /Southeastern the lone outsider ... I'm happy with the selection process of the committee of one - me - this past season ... the committee of one got it right ... I'm pretty sure the committee will hang onto the Ouija Board it uses when things get tough in the ranking process ...
... I just wanted to throw out "Thank You's" to ALL who have made this past 2016-17 season outstanding in my view from the Cheap Seats ... I had the pleasure of attending some great "in season" tournaments : the Zane Trace Tip Off Classic , the Shawnee State get-together at Portsmouth High School, the Beasts of the SouthEast Tourney in Chesapeake , the Pike County Holiday Tourney in Waverly - outstanding shows from all of the organizers and volunteers that make those fine tourneys happen in Southern/Southeastern Ohio ...
I have met sooooooo many posters from SEOPs over the years ... now I run into all of you whenever I roll into high school gyms around Southern/Southeastern Ohio - thank you for giving pfloyd shoutouts when I get into your area gyms ... posters, parents, players, coaches, assistant coaches , administrators - so many great folks who are fans of the game - supporters of the teams , players & coaches ...
... not sure what my regional timeline will be as Pfloyd will be headed for OSU - The James Cancer Center in C'bus tomorrow morning to begin the ALL day "rat race" of CT scans, blood work, & finally an appointment with my oncologist Dr.Kari Kendra to get the results of testing ... as most know I have battled Stage 4 melanoma since 2010 ... the last year has seen me FREE of any treatments ... I had a one year out CT scan in January of 2017 - they found a NEW nodule in my left lung - being a new find the protocol is to wait 8 weeks then look at NEW CT scans/blood work - that's where I am now - 8 weeks out/scans in the morning ... my regional hoops schedule will be dependent on the CT scans & the "game plan" that follows ...
... hold down the fort !!! so to speak ... get out there and support our Southeast District teams at the Convo this week !!!! let's get a couple of teams to the Big Show - the Final 4 in C'bus next week !!!!!
Thank you all for a great 2016-17 hoops season Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line - pfloyd
