Re: Waverly@Washington Courthouse

Good to see that WCH & Waverly are meeting up - the teacher (Schaffer) vs. the pupil (T-Rob). Kyle Sloan is one of the top seniors in Southern Ohio - definitely worth watching.

Re: Piketon -vs- Greenfield McClain

What crap would that be, hbk123? VanMatre never scored a basket for McClain. Just got his players to overachieve for the better part of 25 years in a town where overachievement is the only path to success. Sorry we tried harder than your team, hbk123....500+ times. McClain will be in for a long seas...

Re: Montserrat National Team Coming to Southern Ohio

I know Coach Shoe has put a ton of time & effort into this. Buiding relationships is one thing Dave does as well as anyone I know, so I'm sure this Tour will be first-class all the way. Intersting notes on the younger players as well...it is important to show these kids some genuine Southern Ohi...

Re: SE District DII Semi: Washington CH vs. Warren

I stand corrected, Wiz. I was in between jobs that year, working nights @ Airborne...must be why it didn't register.

I suppose I can go back to disliking WCH now Scoop...that's more comfortable anyway! :lol:

Re: SE District DII Semi: Washington CH vs. Warren

I can't recall Warren ever playing McClain in anything, let alone beating them @ Rio Grande in 2001. Being a Tiger alum/fan I really can't stand Washington C.H., but after reading this thread you nimrods from Warren (except for the young man who is class president) are making this too easy.

Re: Marietta vs. McClain @ the Convo on 3/5

Jimmy Chipwood has the right idea. I've not seen Marietta but I know they dropped one by 30 to Chilli. McClain has made ultra-aggressive defenses pay in the past, shotting free-throws at least at a 2:1 clip vs. their opponent.

Re: Who's the real Tigers? McClain vs. Waverly in Sectional dual

Look for McClain to throw out several different defensive looks & disguises to confuse the young Waverly guards. Probably will settle in a 1-2-2 zone & chase the ball as if it were man. Offensively, McClain will need to be patient. They'll go right at the big guys from Waverly and shoot more...

Re: Dante' Jackson Sighting

Xavier has arguably the best senior backcourt in the A10 so its no diss to Dante to not be playing very many minutes. as said above he'll be competing for a starting job next year. Heck, I'd put Burrell & Lavender up against just about any backcourt in the country! Dante is really gaining confi...

Re: 2/29 Greenfield McClain Vs. Vinton County

Congratulations to Vinton County on their first District Title. It was a heck of a ball game - neither team deserved to lose. I expectd to see much I what I've read, and the kudos to the kids & coaches at VC are well deserved. All the verbal back-slappin' & cheek-pullin' is a little over the...

I'm going to call it like I see it. VC has better 3 point shooters, and a better big man in Guthrie. I dont see how the Tigers can hang. VC 67 GM 51 I like your enthusiasm but there's no way in hell Vinton County scores 67 points on McClain. They have a nice program right now with Combs at the helm...

Re: 2/29 Greenfield McClain Vs. Vinton County

The difference maker in this game will be which team can weather the storm if the other team goes on a run. There will be spurts in the game where Vinton County will go four or five trips without a basket. How the players respond to this adversity could tell the tale in this game. There will also b...

McClain hasn't pressed since the Carter administration, folks...they just play good, solid defense the way it's supposed to be played, year in & year out.

Go Vinton County!!! I would like to see Ethan Allen get more time during the press, he seems to be more comfortable with playing, and with his speed, he will be able to contribute to breaking the press. I am sure that Coach Combs will have the boys ready. Right on. Work on those press-breakers all ...

I personally do not like the offense that Greenfield is running. There is not enough motion, too many guys standing still. Their offense might work well in the scol, but maybe not in the tourney. Against Unioto Polley did run right to the rim a lot of times, b/c Unioto did a nice job of pushing gre...
