Frankfort - Adena Warriors.

[bigboss]

Adena has taken the top spot in Division 5 Region 20 as of now. Big wins early in the season have really gave them points that will be much needed late in the season. Frankfort hopefuls are praying to stay in at least the top 4, this town could use a home Playoff game.

What are your thoughts on Coach Thomas's program and the Warriors this season?!?

Adena looks to be one of the teams that could actually advance in the playoffs.

Adena has a great team this year. The OHSAA site has West Jefferson at #8 in the region and not Versailles. I think this has to be one of the toughest regions in all divisions though. Teams like West Jeff, and Coldwater, and Versailles, and Marion Pleasant are fighting for State titles every year. Good Luck the rest of the year. Represent the SVC well.

thanks for pointing that out, joeeitel is usually very accurate, and i find it more convenient than OHSAA site, although it is more reliable.

Coldwater just beat Versailles last week 36-19 handing them their first loss. Pleasant beat a 1-4 down St. Henry team by 8 so don't really know how good they are. West Liberty, Covington and Miami East are pretenders. Who knows what Dayton Christian has (a christian school coming out of nowhere every year it seems) ? The way Adena is playing the only team I see beating them head to head out of this region right now is Coldwater IMO.

by those teams being pretenders, what do you mean exactly? that they're not as good as what they may seem by their rank right now?

Yes, Covington (5-0) and Miami East (4-1) play this weekend. They are from the same county (Miami) so it's one of those county rivalry things. The schedule both of these teams play leave a little to be desired every year and it's not the toughest row to hoe, let's put it that way. West Liberty has some decent teams over the years but the teams they play other than one or two are less than mediocre at best. Usually between weeks 5-8 is where the separation begins in these divisions with league rivals or big games dotting the landscape and those that started out playing nobodies and getting to 5-0, 4-1 are now at 6-2 or 5-3 all of a sudden and it finally hits them and their fans that reality sets in when you play decent league teams and at that point struggle to get to 6-4, 7-3 or 8-2 at best. Adena shouldn't have that problem this year IMO.

1-4 St. Henry has lost to Div 3 Eaton (undefeated and state ranked, I believe), Pleasant (undefeated and state ranked in Div. 5,) Coldwater (last season's state runner-up in Div.5), and Delphos St. John's (last season's state champs in Div. 6.) I can guarantee NO team in this area would would do well against that slate of teams. A bottom tier team in the MAC would be league champs in most of the leagues in this area.

As an SVC fan, I don't think we can downplay the schedules of any teams. Luckily Adena plays a very competitive non-league schedule. If they played the same schedule SE plays, they could be 10-0 and miss the playoffs I have a feeling. Those other teams may not have great records, but their leagues are a bit better than ours. Is that Adena's fault? No, but thats just how it is. I have seen West Jeff play this year and they are the real deal. They are big, fast, and can play. Replace Adena in the SVC and West Jeff is 10-0 also. Any of the teams from the MCL are tough. Just a year or two ago a 4-6 Marion Local team made the playoffs and won the state. Adena just needs to take care of business for the next 5 games, and let everything fall into place for them. Many times, the winner to come out of Region 20 wins the state.

They're actually tied, and both sites have it correct.

On another site they've already handed the title in D5 to Coldwater , no reason to play the playoff games . Should be a little motivation for Adena .

I agree with this but my point on the original post for starters is that West Liberty, Covington and Miami East aren't in the MAC and are pretenders. Yes St. Henry has lost to the MAC schools, Eaton (who plays down a lot) and Pleasant (who's beat one other good team, North Union). The MAC is the real deal but you only have a couple of those teams in this region. That's why I say at this point in the season, Coldwater to me is the only team that would IMO decidedly beat Frankfort Adena.

I think last seasons Warrior team, may have been as good or better,,than this years.

I will see em in action on friday.

[nice guy]

they are pretty good especially up front.
but they will have to expand their offense if they are going to do anything in the playoffs.
that is my opinion.

Maybe this Adena team matches up better than the Westfall team that was destroyed by Coldwater in the playoffs a couple of years ago . We will take care of u in a couple of weeks also . There is a reason they actually take the field and play the games . Coldwater could get beat in the first round , no one knows .

Fantastic 50 has Adena already clinched.!!!
