3/7/25 Minford v Garaway @ Convo Regional Semi-Final

Post by CuckooNest »

Minford got the convo monkey off their back last week and continues their march forward.

Against ZT Falcons we’re 1/11 from three, they will need a few more I feel this week.

Garaway is listed as 18-6 and comes off a one point win in the district final. I can’t find a roster with any information. Watching some of their win over Coshocton they don’t appear to have much size, but maybe YouTube is deceiving.

Garaway didn’t play at the convo yet, I think that’s an advantage for Minford having played and won once there already.

I think Minford is definitely the better team in this match up and I think they are gonna take the dub 53-46. I look for Kayser and Myles to have a combined 45. I do not know much about the other team though they weren’t bad when I watched them play though.

If Minford gets the pace how they want, Falcons by 10 +, if not, it will be tight. Garaway will want a rock fight, Minford a track meet.

Garaway has good size. Start 4 guys over 6’3. Raber is extremely talented but he doesn’t have much help, just big, strong athletes. Haven’t seen Minford play but have watched Garaway a few times this year. I’ll take the Falcons by 12-15.

1/11 from 3-point land?!?!?!? Sounds to me like Minford needs to get a practice or two in up in Athens to get used to the Convo. If not, maybe since they're the earlier game, they can get there extra early to get in a shoot around practice for an extended warmup.

Garaway usually a contender and has been here before so I expect they are talented, Minford needs to shoot better from downtown as the only three they made came late in the 2nd half but it was a big one. As usual, Bennett and Myles will be the X factor. I think depending on pacing I think coach shoe should think about playing Glenn a little more as Jack has been a bit of a defensive liability down the stretch.

Evidently you don’t know much about the game or you haven’t seen Minford play. Glenn comes in and gives good minutes, but him and Shoemaker are two different role players.

Garaway doesn’t look the part but they’re good. Well coached and disciplined. Raber outstanding. Off guard lights out shooter. A wing player solid. The 2 bigs are ok and a good shooter off the bench. They’re playing well and have been there before.

Respectfully, evidently you don’t understand what I’m trying to say nicely, Glenn should play more than shoemaker.

Look for this to be a great game on Friday night, but in the end I think Minford and Kayser and Myles will pull it out. Do we know when the last time Minford made it to the elite 8?

Didn’t wheelersburg go to the state championship game. I’m thinking were overmatched against Orrville.
