Agreed...early returns on Prater look really promising for Burg. Better get them this year because they are trending upwards talent-wise. I see them finishing around 13-9, and being that 7-10 seed that nobody will want to face in D3 tourney (just as we saw last year).*

... I was doodling looking at the tournament brackets, jotted down those teams that I felt could make noise in the post season - Wheelersburg is THAT team that I think can make a deep run in the one and done season ... strong/physical team across the board ... I think I posted it when they played the OT game @ Minford - they play physical but it is still basketball not just bullying - if that makes sense ... I like Burg in their part of the bracket to be in the district finals ...PineRider wrote: ↑Wed Feb 08, 2023 10:46 am Burg is looking good in time for tournaments. Good to see Coach Prater doing well. He has surrounded himself with assistants that have a lot of basketball knowledge. The Pirates are a good ball club. They have some young players that should be forces for them in the coming years. Looking for them to make a good tournament run. Good Luck Coach Prater & Pirates!
I'm going to agree with you Pfloyd. Wheelersburg has the players and coaching to make the deep run when it counts. I've given them credit all season that when it comes to crunch time, I felt the Pirates would pull together and make it happen. I am really surprised they didn't pull out the W against Minford. I think it'll be a different game Friday night. IMO Wheelersburg did get a good tournament draw. They should make a good run in the post season.pfloyd wrote: ↑Wed Feb 08, 2023 5:33 pm...
