South Webster @ Oak hill

Thoughts?

Oak Hill by double digits

[LucasDavenport]

We were talking about this game the other day and surmised that the last time SW beat Oak Hill at Oak Hill was Kreischers last year as coach. I think that would be 10 straight. Tough place to play for any visiting team.

Perhaps this year is asking too much of the young Jeeps. But — maybe next year the streak can be broken?

Good luck to The Jeeps.

Blevins foul trouble

The oaks are definitely the favorite, but you never know. That’s why we play these games. Some cold shooting on the oaks and some hot shooting by the jeeps. Some early foul trouble for the oaks. We just need to take care of the basketball and make the simple plays. That’s all the boys need to worry about right now. Do that and get some love from the baskets and they could make a game of it. Turn the ball over and Oak Hill will make us pay. That’s what makes sports some much fun. Put it on the line each and every night and see what happens.

Jeepmadness: Great post.

There’s always a chance. These kids will definitely show up and play hard.

I’ve undersold SW on virtually every prediction this year (my bad)...I now believe they will win 12-14 games this year, a convo lock and a regional contender.

But I don’t see a chance at OH

If Webster contends in this game I'll give them an A+. Note I said contend, not win. But you never know, Jeeps might come out and Holgate them for the win LOL

Oaks by 10ish

[Oaktown]

End of 1st qtr:
Oak Hill 24
South Webster 6

[The Ghost of Swanker]

Oaks win think it was 67-34

size and aggression isn't hard to come by in Oak Hill...
seen a little bit of bright spot out of Webster in the 4th quarter when they decided to shoot some 3's but otherwise Oak Hill looked like the Monstars out there against the toon squad ; unstoppable.

Every other team is playing for second place

The national anthem was the best part of this game. State law

[art_vandelay]

Jeeps got it handed to 'em tonight. Oak Hill just on a different level this year. But Jeeps 4-3 heading into break and got the hardest game on their schedule behind them. Regroup and get ready for New Boston next week.*

[JEEPNATION]

Jeeps just flat out weren’t ready to play! 24-6 1st quarter shows that. Whether it was coaching staff or the kids just not wanting to be there we just weren’t ready to play.

Oaks are the real deal though! I’m curious to see how far they go in the tourney!

Now time for an actual D4 test against new Boston! They’re pretty good so this will be a good game to gauge where we are!

Side note — what’s going on with our JV team??? Really thought our JV would have a good year but we’ve been getting smacked around and the coach typically just sits down the entire game? So strange! If we’re losing the kids need coached up not quit on!

Regardless GO JEEPS!!

[The Ghost of Swanker]

They were gonna get smacked around by Oak Hill regardless if Shane and Connor suited up and jumped in LOL

Next game Websters gonna have to try something besides having Blevins hold the ball at the top of the arc and wait for something to happen. Holgate ball only works if your not down by twenty.

Got to watch Oak Hill last night and they look like a complete team in my opinion.webster come out in the third and hits some 3's to make it a little closer. I think Oak Hill will make a lot of noise come tournament time.

The first quarter was definitely not great from a Webster perspective.

But that’s very interesting —- I’ve never seen a post on this board asking whether the coaching staff wanted to be there.

But then hey— Go Jeeps.

Oh stop I just forgot a comma! As in maybe the coaching staff didn’t have the boys ready to play, or maybe the kids just didn’t want to be there. You knew what I meant! No matter which way we word it it was a good ole fashioned butt whoopin!

Like I said before Oak hill is the real deal! No shame in losing to them I just didn’t like what I saw 1st quarter. New Boston is another team that is no slouch so I’m hoping we don’t come out like that next week!

[LucasDavenport]

Fair enough.

[LucasDavenport]

And let me try to answer your side note without degrading this current group of kids—- Cause they are a great group of kids.

South Webster is a small school —- you know that. And their best 6 maybe 7 freshman and sophomores are playing on Webster’s Varsity or New Boston’s varsity or Wheelersburg’s Varsity. How good do you truly expect them to be? These kids are being thrust into roles that they’ve never been in — and hopefully by the end of the year will have improved.

Let’s be honest, SW probably isn’t going to win the SOC. Oak Hill isn’t in division 4 so I don’t think SW is too heartbroken or discouraged about getting drilled by Oak Hill, or at least they shouldn’t be. Tournament run > conference championship
