Been away on assignment, rumor has it the young lady from West (pitcher) has committed to Valparaiso University. I watched her pitch this summer, I believe this is a good landing spot for her. Congrats and Good Luck (if the rumor is true).

Wheelersburg will dominate Southern Ohio and the State of Ohio for as far as you want to project. West probably in the top five teams in the state but will never see Akron.

I have to agree with the Captain, the two teams the Burg played at state would struggle to beat West.

How any coach under these game circumstances would allow Eaton to bat is totally insane. Yea, I have heard all of the excuses why it didn't happen but none make no sense if you have a winning game plan. Come on the girl from West is a good pitcher but not a formidable foe for Eaton. Sorry, the truth...

Let the hype begin, NO CONTEST, the burg will prevail. Can any division 3 team in the State stop them, I don't think so. Watched them early in the season was not overly impressed, however, they are beasts at the plate and defense is good. Their final four success will depend on their pitching.

Throwing a pitch to Eaton on the outside of the plate allows her to extend her arms and swing away. She hit the ball over the cars in the parking lot at Burg park. Pitch to the other girl was right down the middle of the plate after walking Eaton. Of course they were good hits but against the Burg y...

From a spectator at the game, the pitcher from West made two bad pitches. Burg lineup is better that West but that does not mean West is not a strong team. Only problem is they may meet again and if West plays the same game they lose again. Eaton very well could be the best hitter to ever play in th...

Very good game, young lady from West made two bad pitches, with these lineups West cannot beat the Burg. Have now seen Burg and Ironton several times I think the outcome will be similar to the score with West.

Good to be back and taking in games again this year, Burg is not near the team of last year, but no way PW beats them at home. Ironton pitcher is the best of the SO throwers, no question. Thought Trojans would shine but they clearly below the Burg, need a little more pitching. Regional finals Ironto...

Not surprised, congrats to the young lady.

Burg
Ironton
Portsmouth
Not necessarily in that order

Unfortunately, the "Eaton strategy" could be implemented every local game she plays and if it can be proven successful, could be carried throughout tourney play. As a hitter there only a couple of local pitchers who match up with her but she still has the advantage. Again, Burg has reloade...

IF the Ironton pitcher got a full ride from OU, how could she have gotten more? As far as the money being tight you are spot on, the 5th year seniors and transfers are creating financial issues for the new girls. I commend all of the girls who just want to play, right now college costs a small fortu...

Only two pitchers locally who have that potential are the girls from Ironton, Lewis County. Ironton supposedly headed to OU. The only true D1 player around here is the Eaton girl from the Burg. The pitcher from West DII at best unless she has improved greatly from the spring. Let the comments begin....

Burg will advance to the final four in 2022, beating the Ironton ace again. Game may be closer next time, if their pitching prospects improve Ironton better be wary of Portsmouth. Trojans have a fine team, offensively and defensively and are the only other team in the area who can compete with the B...

Burg spanked the Ironton pitcher, 14 hits, including bunts, line drives and one of the crazy plays for a run scoring hit I have ever witnessed. Too many weapons on offense, strong pitching and another gem from the defense. Once Burg got rolling it was over, congrats to the Pirates and ladies I hope ...

Caught the game last night, agree better game than score indicated but talent wise Burg just has a better team. Big crowd, game was intense first couple of innings both teams left runners on base but once the Burg started hitting it was over. Couple of home runs, clutch hits and of course the Burg p...

Haven't been to any games lately but based on conversation of friends, this could be a very good game. Webster beat a West pitcher who completely dominated Burg in their second game but at the same time Webster lost to Clay. The contribution from the "kids" on this Burg team has been much ...

Areukidinme, yes I am still around, everyone who watches softball knows the answer to this thread but its a no-brainer stay away from this debate.

Of course the word is out, the Burg can play like a normal high school softball team. Walks, bad throws, dropped fly balls, failure to hit cut off players, poor hitting with runners on base. Yes folks it happens, will they learn from it? Webster absolutely believes they can take the Burg down next t...
