IMHO, the difference in the game was made by the Viking defensive pressure. I have never understood how Combs gets his teams to play such ferocious D the entire game. Regarding the officiating, I really saw few if any bad calls on fouls. There were some errors in other areas though. None were game c...

You guys have obviously forgotten about Kenny Bixx. Now there is a vocabulary deluxe.

I have read all the posts on this subject and would just like to add my two cents worth. I'm a Vinton County poster. I was teaching and coaching here in VC before there was a VCHS. So I have seen it all down through the forty-six years the school has been in existence and have just one thing to say....

In reference to the Wikipedia article authored by 96, there is one significant error. 1970 was not the first year for football in the TVC to recognize a conference champion. The 1969 team of Warren went 3-0-0 in the TVC and were crowned champions. They beat Vinton County 33-0, Fed Hock 44-0 and Belp...

Remember, the TVC allows each school a certain number of players on the All-TVC teams in accordance with where they finish in the conference standings. I think the District is based on ability.

In 1966, when Pomeroy, Middleport and Rutland consolidated to form Meigs Local and Nelsonville and Buchtel-York consolidated to form Nelsonville-York, the SEOAL would be down to seven teams. The league decided at its March meeting to postpone action for one year on the acceptance of a new member. Th...

Forgot to mention above: What is the big secret? What is the logic for the conference not releasing the results as soon as they are available like every other league does? I just wish someone would answer these questions.

The TVC really sucks with the policy of not releasing All-TVC teams until all teams have been eliminated from the tournament. Many lose all interest in the whole process by the time it is released. Also, I have found through research that the All-TVC teams may not be reported in all newspapers in th...

In my records of All-TVC football players I have a Ryan Rex from Federal Hocking on the 2010 team. That name has bothered me since I typed it back in 2010. I thought that it was probably a typo and should have read Rex Ryan instead of Ryan Rex. Could someone clue me in on which name is correct? It w...

Gotta agree that Combs is one of the top coaches in SE Ohio, if not the best of all. It amazes me that he is able to get his teams to play such ferocious defense for a whole game. We have had some very adept offensive BB players in the past who were just as determined to play top-notch defense. I re...

Never did aee a final on Waterford vs Eastern. Anybody got it?

Now that the season is over, thought I would update on Tori's first year at Marietta College. Spoke to her recently and she was very happy with her situation at Marietta. For the season, Tori: Started all 25 games. Led the team in minutes played. Led the team in 3-point baskets. Led the team in assi...

This Viking heart goes out to the Derrow family in their time of need. God bless you all.

Derbyfan,

If you are a big Chieftan fan surely you can come up with the best off and Def linemen from the decade. Who are they in your humble opinion.

Saw an article in the paper regarding the fall athletics program that Wellston produced this year. They were named a gold medal winner for the program which is quite an honor. i finally saw the 2010 copy and have to wonder what the first place program had that the WHS program did not. The program is...

Luke doesn't know me from Adam, but I remember him quite well. One thing I can tell you for sure. When he was enrolled at Vinton County as a freshman, he was a HITTER!!! He needed a lot of technique work and experience, but he was not afraid of the big boys and would step right up and hit anything m...

Did I miss the post that named the TVC boys and girls Basketball teams? I also must have missed the same info in the local newspapers. Can someone give me direction to where I can find those teams listed?

I would have thought that TVC.com would have posted them, but could not find them.

Hawkeye,

I will double check my figures when I get a little more time, but I am pretty certain of those figures.

Hawkeye, Wellston first played in the TVC in basketball in the 82-83 season. Prior to that we played them a total of 35 times and had a 19-16 record against them. I also have us 9-8 vs Athens when they were in the SEOAL. Also, we were 9-2 vs Meigs before they entered the TVC from the SEOAL. I agree ...

Is the Osborne boy still with the team. He didn't suit up against VC at the end of the season. What happened to him? He played tough against VC in the 1st meeting which Wellston won.
