Webster plays Oak Hill for their first game of the tournament on Thursday February 7th. Game should start at approx. 7:30 p.m. 8th grade team has alot of talent. I don't think they have been beaten by more than 6 points in their losses. I think Webster has a chance of winning the whole tournament.
Good Luck Jeeps!!!!

I would have to say Valley is going to Dominate the tournament........they only lost one game to Burg at that crackerjack box they call a gym.....and if that wasn't all one starter was out and two others were sick.......and they did kinda get ripped off......u cant denie that?

:-D :-D :-D :-D

Valley is a good ball team. I hope it is a good tournament. However, for the "valleyindian", I did not see a single excuse for the Burg's loss at Valley, but some are still making excuses for their loss at the Burg. Time to move on.

Yes, there is a bracket that has been published but apparently you must be one of the elite in some circles to get your hands on it. I got one from someone from another school but do not have it in front of me or I would post it. I will do so tomorrow.

/end of rant :-D :-D :-D

To come out and say Valley will dominate is a bold statement, they do have a good ball club, but I think there are other 8th grade teams in this bracket that could step up and make a run for the Championship

sportsfiend thanks for the bracket. Burg 7th grade should be a given but the 8th grade tourney should be good.

Not a problem.

The Burg 7th grade boys have to play like they want it and not think that they can waltz onto the court and be handed a trophy. That would be a dance competition and not a basketball tournament. (Although I would give anything to see this set of boys waltzing.) I hear their coach can dance pretty well though. You should ask him about it sometime. :lol:

The Burg 8th grade boys have to bring their A game which they have. Dig deep guys and come out like you want it. It's yours to take.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!

I am really excited to see how this tournament turns out. The 8th grade tournament has some really good matchups. Even though this tournament is held at South Webster, it would not surprise me one bit to see valleys student "cheering section" if the indians are able to make it to the championship. If you ask me Valley and Burg are the two toughest teams out there. They both have only lost one game and it was against each other. Good luck to all teams in the tournament, and remember, make sure you have fun out there.

I have a question.

How did Northwest get seeded above Oak Hill when Oak Hill has beat them twice???????? :evil: :evil:

Good question oak a holic. How did Valley get the 1 seed with Burg have the same record. It would be interesting for someone to explain the "logic".

Is it based on overall record or league record? In the Wheelersburg/Valley situation, if they were tied it could have come down to a coin flip. I have no idea, this is just speculation. I seriously doubt that the teams voted for the seeds.
