On a side note, Burg was no way the number 1 team in the state.

Truitt has to shoot more for them to move on come playoffs. He scored 8 points in the 1st qtr and then never scored again until midway through the 3rd qtr. He has to be the go to guy for the Pirates. Ater has to recognize that and get him shots. He is there best player.

Burg missed WAY to many wide open shots in the lane. Burg was down I believe 47-31 when they went on a run to cut it to 53-52 with the ball and chucked up a three. Not a good shot there. Waverly then went on a run that a Burg couldn’t recover from.

Burg will bounce back and maybe pull out a win at Waverly.


On another side note the technical on Truitt might have been warranted but the Waverly player was running his mouth as well and got nothing. Oh well, that’s expected when you have Nichols and Throckmorton reffing a Burg game.
Shocker....Two more refs out to get Wheelersburg.

The play that Truitt and Futhey went at it should have resulted in a double technical, when the technical was called everyone was thinking it was on Futhey and was shocked when it was called on Truitt. Did Truitt say something? I could not tell you, the call should have been a double technical. Unfair to call that on just one player, IMO.

I've watched 2 Burg games this year and in both Truitt has gotten a technical... maybe I should stay home!

Anyone know how many technicals he has had this year? Great player, just wish he'd keep his head a little more.

As for the game, I thought Waverly was the better team for all but about 5-6 minutes. They were stretching it into a blowout and then Waverly looked complacent, made silly mistakes, and couldn't put the ball in the hoop. Then the last couple minutes Robertson just decided to flat take this game over. Special player, especially for a sophomore.

It was a fun, intense, competitive game. I'm glad I came.

Is there any team in the SE District that has more player technical fouls than Burg the past 4-5 years?

Robertson was the star of the show, I will give him props, but Burg will win 9/10 times against this Waverly team, just had an off night.

I guess we will see. A lot of ppl without much basketball knowledge on here saying burg “missed shots” or had an off night, but they missed shots because almost everything was contested. Waverly played an active zone majority of the game and burg never figured it out, just passed it around the perimeter and jacked 3s over top of, what look like, a bigger more athletic waverly team.

Side note: burg move of the night was scorekeeper turning off side scoreboards w 1:30 left 😂

pretty sure they always do that with scoreboard
shots were contested but burg missed a lot of shots at the basket that they should make, contested or not
burg had some players that didn't play smart
I would have sat at least one particular burg player for his own good and the teams

Maybe it should have been a double T. But I'm sure Truitt had to have said something, the ref was standing literally arms length away from him. Honestly, burg is lucky Miller didn't get a T throughout the game during different times. Miller is a good player, but he'd be a lot better if he'd just play ball and not get caught up in the extras.
Seems like the past few seasons Burg has been known for getting Techs a little more than others. They seem to do poorly when it comes to controlling their emotions and let the moment get the best of them.

Burg didn’t play well and waverly played great. These two teams play good games on one night it’s a coin toss. Both are good.j

I forgot that Wheelersburg lost to the Waverly Angels. 🙄
Personally, I tend to overlook a little bit of excitement/taunting. But since the jabs are starting, on four different occasions, Mullet Man for Waverly was taunting as well. Once towards the Burg bench when they called a timeout and a Waverly assistant pulled him over to their bench to reprimand him. Second time on the locker room end of the Burg crowd he put his middle finger over his wagging tongue to flip off some people in the crowd. Third time he was literally dancing a little jig in the middle of the floor on the same end. Lastly he was starting to dance again at mid court but Coach Robertson yelled at him from the bench by saying “Knock it off and act like you’ve been here before!” All of which were not seen by the referees. But like I said before, personally I typically overlook things like this and chalk it up to excitement/emotion in the moment. Intense games like this are what make high school sports so much fun.

But back to the game, Waverly played great especially Robertson and Futhey. The Tigers’ defense kept the pressure on Burg most of the night, making a majority of their shots contested. It was tough to keep pace scoring wise when Waverly offense and defense were clicking. Looking forward to the rematch on February 7th. Should be another good one.

Exactly why I prefer watching girls games. Just as skilled, physical play, aggressiveness, probably better shooting but none of the nonsense.

I agree. Some good, intense games every year.
