Re: FAIRLAND (2) vs. WHEELERSBURG (7) 2/25 @ Waverly Downtown Gym

Horrible ending to this game. Pirates upset the Dragons 45-43. Players apparently running their mouths when shaking hands leads to a huge fight which ends up at midcourt with people coming from near and far. One fan taken to the hospital and teams kept apart when leaving.

Re: Western vs Symmes Valley

SV tops Western 72-66. Western missed a bunch of free throws in the first half, and that basically kept them behind the entire game. Western also played a full court press defense that was ineffective against Smith. He got the ball several times on the inbounds pass and took it straight to the baske...

Re: MAC Schools and their success

Work ethic- many kids are farm kids, and are used to working morning, noon, and night. Daily football practice is easy in comparison. Family- 2 parent homes are the norm, not the exception. Team accomplishments are more important than individual accomplishments. How else do you lose upwards of a doz...

Piketon at Columbus Academy

12th seed Piketon goes on the road to 5th seed Academy. Streaks (7-3) and Vikings (9-1) meet for the second time in 3 years, both times in the playoff. Vikings defeated the Red Streaks 30-22 on the road. What does Piketon have to do to bring home the victory?

Re: Three teams drop out to avoid playing Marion Local in playoffs

I noticed that it is another MAC team that will play them, even though they lost to ML 62-0 earlier this season. MAC teams are not afraid to compete.

Re: Week 1 Northwest @ Piketon

Piketon opens with a 26-0 win over Northwest. Game was much closer than the score indicates. Red Streaks led 6-0 at halftime, 12-0 after 3. Northwest had their best scoring chance on the opening drive of the game, but the Streaks hold on 4th down on their own 5 yard line.

Week 1 Northwest @ Piketon

Week one has the Mohawks travelling to meet the Red Streaks. These teams haven't played the last couple of years, but have an extensive history against one another. I don't know anything about NW- who returns, who figures to be their playmakers- so seeking some information about them. The Red Streak...

Re: BIGS Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line for 2024-25

Bo Henry, a 6’6 junior at Piketon. With the Red Streaks losing 3 starters from last season, he will have to carry an even bigger load than he did last season.

Re: Transfers of note for the 2024-25 season ??? / New Coaches ???

I can't 100% confirm, but I believe there is a transfer going to Jackson for baseball, but also plays basketball. ~6'2", Senior leader/experienced, sounds like a solid contributor, role-player type. If I hear confirmation, I'll circle back so it isn't just speculation. Also heard that Coach Wa...

Re: Who is “HIM” in the Week that IS? 1/23 -1/27/24

Northwest defeated Western tonight 60-48. #12 for NW (Bolin I guess, couldn’t understand the announcer) had 50. Hit probably 6 triples and 12 free throws. Literally couldn’t miss.

Re: Friday 12/29 Scores and Updates

Piketon shot lights out in the first half, cooled off considerably in the second. Waverly has a very impressive group of freshmen, led by Russell (17 points.) Piketon did a much better job of handling the pressure than they have so far this season. Tigers will win some games this season as they gain...

Re: Western Pike 84 Piketon 83 Dbl OT a final

pfloyd, very accurate rundown from last night. Going in, I didn't know what to expect from either team, as both lost some parts from last year, either due to graduation or guys not playing/transferring this year. It was a bitter pill for this Red Streaks fan, but I was happy to see my nephew play ve...

Re: 12-1-23 games and scores.

Piketon missed a ton of free throws, and Western just never gave up. Piketon won’t face a group of guards like Western’s the rest of the season.

Two plays turned this game. Piketon got stopped on fourth down in the first half deep in PV territory when they had a shot at going up 3 scores, then gave up a long touchdown right before half. PV started every second half drive in Piketon territory, and took advantage of the defensive aggressivene...
