Piketon, Oh 45661 c/o Jason Taylor A.D. or email at [email protected] Make checks payable to Piketon Athletic Department $80 Entry fee

This is starting to shape up real nice, more teams are contacting me, I will keep everyone up to date on here and the huddle. Thanks

Piketon Jr High School will be hosting the 1st ever Jr High shootout on Saturday July 12th, 2008. Piketon is located 20 miles south of Chillicothe, 90 miles east of Cincinnati and 70 miles west of Athens. I was recently the 7th grade coach, but I took over the Athletic Director duties and we had planned on doing this, so I am going ahead and setting it up.

We have two gyms to work with so we will have 4 side courts that will be marked with lanes, half court and 3 point lines.

Entry is to the first 12 teams that contact and pay. The entry fee will be $80 per team. If we have enough 7th and 8th grade teams, we will put them in seperate brackets, if not everyone will play everyone else. Each team will be guaranteed 4 games.

Games will begin at 9 am, admission for non competitors will be $2 and a hand stamp good at both gyms for all day. Concessions will be available at both gyms as well.

There will be 4 quarters with 10 minute running clock. Shooting fouls will be 2 free throws, non shooting fouls will be ball out of bounds. The last 2 minutes of the game, the clock will be stopped on all dead ball possessions and non shooting fouls will be assessed with a one and the bonus.

We will have officials, score keepers and clock keepers for each contest.

This will be the first time for running this and I am sure there will be some small problems, however I am looking forward to hosting this and I hope to hear from everyone this summer.

You can contact me at Piketon High School 740-289-2254 ext 1036 or email me at [email protected]

Thank You Jason Taylor Piketon A.D.

We are in...and I will send the money in or around the end of May...THANKS

Huntington Ross just called, they want in. This is shaping up to be a pretty good shootout. We have teams from miles around wanting to play.

North Adams is also wanting to play and someone from Waverly has expressed interest as well.

Look like it is shaping into a pretty good camp...GO DRAGONS!!

Notre Dame just confirmed, so that should make 9 teams so far. Looking good.

Unioto is in! Wow, there should be some great games come July 12th. I will have fun matching them up.

Allright a month away and here is where we stand. Piketon, Peebles, Vinton Co, North Adams 7th and 8th, and Huntington have payed, Eastern Pike, Notre Dame and Portsmouth Clay have mailed payment.

Unioto, St Clairesville, West Union, and some I am forgetting have mentioned interest.

On the gym side, good news. Pike Joint Vocational School is currently using the old high school and they have cleaned up the old gym/auditorium. This gives us three full size gyms within a quarter mile of each other.

Is there anymore openings for this shootout.

Right now I have 5 that have paid and 3 that are sending payment. I am only wanting 12 teams and yes combined teams are fine. The shootout is on July 12th starting at 9 am, that is a Saturday.

That is 11 teams that have paid. I originally said 12 only, however in talking with a friend that has a program that creates the pools, he said we could go to 3 pools of 5 for 15 teams if we can get to 15. I am still taking payments if a team wants in.
