That would be horrible when you have a high class stadium in Logan that is exactly half way for both teams.

Athens field itself is nice, but parking is a nightmare and it seems they forgot to finish the walkway and under side of the home side by the restrooms

Athens & logan are like 15 to 20 minutes apart. Travel is same. Lolyabbadabbadoo wrote:93Bulldog wrote:Game will be in Athens!

Adding space for 50 cars does not fix the problem! Also the visitors side is too small for playoffs .93Bulldog wrote:When is the last time u guys were at Athens? Softball field was moved, turned into parking. Its not the same stadium when Wheelersburg was here last.

Heard Peden Stadium was a possibility . That would have been nice.

More than 50!!! Plenty of parking at Athens. We had over 5,000 there for athens/ny a few years back & it wasn't a huge issue. And that was before softball field was moved.

With it in Athens, local county won't probably make the trip like they did in Jackson. I don't think it will be that big of a deal.

Athens is a large DIII stadium, it can handle a DV regional game for goodness sake.

Guarantee it will not hold the Burg crowd. Home side doesn't look any bigger than Burg's!!!

Yeah I Agree. We Filled 90% of Jackson's Home side and that might be the biggest in the areayabbadabbadoo wrote:93Bulldog wrote:Athens is a large DIII stadium, it can handle a DV regional game for goodness sake.

There is a big deck on Athens side where fans stand by concession stand, and then a lot of room around the fence. Athens had a state championship caliber team & an Ohio State quarterback for three years and never once had an issue with not enough room.
Re: Region 19 #3 Coshocton (11-1) @ #1 Wheelersburg (12-0)
Burg will be fine. My prediction is Burg by 3 scores. Coshocton will not travel well. Coshocton is big and physical. But will not stop the Burg's athletes.
Re: Region 19 #3 Coshocton (11-1) @ #1 Wheelersburg (12-0)
Omg I've never seen so much crying over where a team is playing in week 13 of a high school play off game I'm sure the coaches and players are,more focused on their oppenent then the venue .
I will get you that burg will NOT fill Athens home side either all the fans at Jackson was not all burg fans I know for a fact a large number of them was from Waverly to support the SOC and even seen Athens football team ,those fans are not going to drive 100 miles to see them again.
Good luck to the burg players and coaches win it all!!

Would have thought that this game and the Waterford vs Harvest Prep game would have been in reverse locations. Would have made much more sense in several ways.
Re: Region 19 #3 Coshocton (11-1) @ #1 Wheelersburg (12-0)
Common now you guys don't honestly think you filled 90% of Jackson's home side with JUST burg fans do you?? I watched the Burg vs Hartley in 2014 at Chillicothe and the home side was plenty enough for Burg fans and ALL the other fans who piled in there. You guys travel don't get me wrong but to say that you bring 2K to a game that are just pure Burg fans sorry you don't. Athens home side is plenty big enough and then some now the visitors side well that's another story really think that stadium needs an upgraded visitor side to host playoff games. Parking isn't an issue now, unless it rains, plenty of grass to park in. Was at the Jackson vs Zanesville game there last year just a headache getting out, bring you a flashlight though field where you're parking isn't level, couple banks to go up and ditches to watch out for.Neutron Man wrote:Yeah I Agree.

Hahaha agree about the field parking. You must have been down on the practice field. But there are two huge lots up by the school AND you can get out a different way up there as well. Go out by the baseball field, which takes you into the plains. Rt. 33 is just a mile away. You dont have to exit stadium via Johnson rd.
Re: Region 19 #3 Coshocton (11-1) @ #1 Wheelersburg (12-0)
Yeah that's where I was parked at we got there pretty early actually sat top row. Looked like the parking up top was full not sure if it was or not though there was cars lined going up the hill. If I hit this game this year I'll have to remember that, thanks. Thinking about taking in Waterford vs Harvest Prep though, I think Burg handles this game and I can watch them play next week. Harvest Prep brings a 3,800 yard 53 TD back against that Waterford defense that one is little more intriguing to me right now.93Bulldog wrote:Hahaha agree about the field parking.

Lol, I stood on the Jackson visitor sideline (NY side) last night.
You were no where, and I mean no where close to filling the home side to 90% capacity.
Athens is plenty large enough unless you bring 1,000 more people than you did against NY.
