Pfloyd's Elite 8 of Southern/SouthEast Ohio - Week #8

[Hookshot]

Can Warren off our 2nd #1 in as many tries Friday? Meigs for sure will be a tough matchup with their size.

I'd bet on Warren over Meigs, especially with the game in Vincent. How many times in the past two seasons (record of 33-6) has Warren lost a home game?

The only loss we've had was against Marietta last season.

New Lex 8-5 and 8th just sounds crazy….with that said all their loses have been to some really good teams…they got a very hard schedule….rankings looks about right

New Lex strength of schedule dramatically better than the team just ahead of them. Unioto among the weakest schedules to date of any high-ranking team in any division in the Southeast, excepting Chesapeake and Zane Trace.

As the only long term Unioto poster here, I’m shocked that our schedule has been better than anyone else’s lol

Our guys do have 2 loss Fairfield coming up this week, followed by Jackson and Zane Trace next week. But, when I looked at the schedule in the preseason, I predicted 18 wins and it looks on pace for that. And that was without them playing particularly well, which to their credit, they have done for most of the season.

I think Coach Combs has done an excellent job and he has a nice staff which should prep them well for the tournament, even if the schedule really hasn’t done so. Hopefully that will be improve for next season, even if I’m not sure that they are as going to be as strong.

I’ve seen both Unioto and Z.Trace play and I thought Z.Trace was better….obviously Unioto beat Z.Trace….they do play again so we will see, i wouldnt be surprised if Z.Trace beats them

As far as The Peake schedule 7 of those games have been OVC which you can't avoid. 2 wins Adena is way down and Fairview is bad. But they have beaten 2 WV schools who would be Div. 1 in Ohio, Lincoln county and Cabell Midland. They also beat Franklin Monroe who is a top Div. 7 team. They still have 3 out of conference games against Raceland Ky , Valley and Trimble. We still have Fairland and Ironton twice so lot of tough basketball ahead.

The Peake has the worst Opponent Winning Percentage RPI of any high-ranking team in the Southeast. Lincoln County is 1-8 and Cabell Midland's opponents are 19-40 with no substantive wins. Not saying The Peake has intentionally scheduled this way, and I'm also a believer in rewarding a team who wins every time. If they don't finish 20-2 I'll be surprised.

[peake71]

I would like for the Peake to go 20-2 even 22-0 but right now I would settle for 13 -0 after play Raceland tomorrow night.

[TrueFan]

Small note, but Washington CH is 7-8, not 7-7.

Fairfield came to play at Unioto

Fairfield came to play at Unioto

I haven’t watched it yet, but they are a bad matchup for Unioto, especially if they played McIntosh at the 5. But, I think Unioto zoned a lot to make up for it.

I’m not surprised that Wheelersburg beat West, even if I did pick West, but the score is crazy to me.

Burg came in allowing 67.3 points per game and held West to 27…40 points below their average of what they allow.

What in the world happened?! Did Burg decide that Tuesday was the time to lock in?

I was there wests best player is done. Wolfenbarker i guess never actually moved houses so by rule isnt eligible 2nd half of season.

West has some dark days ahead without him bc other than kegley they are down so teams just gonna focus on kegley

Probably didn’t play football at Northwest. If you don’t play a sport at your previous school, then you don’t have to sit for that sport.

I don't believed he played his freshman season, but I don't know about last season. Anyways whatever the case is it's definitely a huge lose for the Senators the rest of the season.

[Hoopie74]

Does this cause forfeits in some other games after the first of the year for West?
