Re: Wheelersburg Athletes
My take on this topic is that some kids find two sports and classes all they can handle. Let them pick their sports then and do their classes. Too often coaches (and other parents!) protest if a good athlete gets a "spot" in front of their child who went to all the year round things and he...

Well, then; nothing lost at all and now a happy camper! Very good. He wins when he gets the degree. That's the real truth of the matter.

Go Burg! and fyi, I think Coach Miller has one grandson who is a senior captain on this team, and he is one awesome player!

Re: Derek Roback quits Notre Dame enrolls at Ohio University
I am confused: Is he playing football at OU and getting a "ride" or not? Can the football team there do that at this point in time, or does he have to try to walk on in the spring now? In short, did the player walk away from about $200,000 in scholarships to come home? And, if so, all that...

Re: Wheelersburg 2010-2011
Don't confuse one or two (even three) posters on a site like this with "trouble in paradise". It adds up to nothing compared to the hundreds, maybe even thousands of Pirates who love their coaches and stand by all of their programs, players, coaches, parents and community.

Re: Wheelersburg 2010-2011
Trouble in paradise? I don't know about that. One player comes in, decides he doesn't want to stay, then leaves. Burg goes back to what it was, with a few additions from the young kids. No big deal. Players decide all the time they don't want to play, because it is a tought sport and there is such l...

Re: DIII who got the best tourny draw?
when was the last time a d3 shl school got to the regional finals? What do you mean? Every year in D3 a D3 school gets to the regional finals???? Very confusing. If you mean from southern Ohio, wouldn't the answer to that be Burg, two years in a row? 07 and 08?? Also, it should be noted that Oak Hil...

Re: Watch Brig Waginger and WCU online
And Western Carolina won that game 83-81 in a barn burner that went down to the wire. Wheelersburg's Drew Spradlin plays for Elon, starting as a sophomore and now leading the young Elon team in scoring. For a few minutes, Western switched Brig to put him on Spradlin. Drew got the last Elon basket, b...

Re: Coaches Salaries
Coaches and teachers work 9 months or more a year in their buildings. They also work 3+ hours after school at home or in a gym on weeknights. (Others go home and are done with work.) They grade papers a few hours or even sometimes 10-12 hours per weekend and must plan for course work for 180 student...

Re: Final: Portsmouth 64 @ Wheelersburg 60 on 12/15/09
Wow. I am shocked. Tough loss. Portsmouth has not beat the Burg in a LONG time. Not enough basketballs for the Burg? Over-hyped? No D? What happened? Yikes. Not good at all. Congrats, Portsmouth. I am happy to see a new coach finally get something good from PHS. I hope it can continue, for the kids'...

Re: WK6 Minford 16 Wheelersburg 15 SOC II
Usually the ones yelling for a coach's job are parents whose kids are not getting to play or not getting the ball. That's all they really care about, no matter what they say. It's just the usual. Others are quiet and just know that's the way it goes with a bunch of kids playing games for their frien...

Re: Congratulations JD Hale 1,000 Points
Usually, coaches pull their player before he scores his 1,000 away so he can do it at home, but NOT in that game ! Barrick did that for Camden Miller his senior year, and then next game,Miller scored his 1,000 in Burg's gym. Sometimes, when the event happens away, unless the visiting team makes spec...
