Every year some of the local newspapers do a Hoops Preview for local teams/leagues … the Portsmouth Times, Highland County Press etc. does anyone in the Portsmouth area know when the Preview Issue will come out this year - it is usually around Thanksgiving I believe ???

Pink Floyd, the Portsmouth Times did not do a football preview this year so I am not expecting one for hoops either.

uggghhhhhhhh !!!! I hate to hear that alabama mike !!! … I liked having the schedules for all of those teams in the Portsmouth area … as well as the rosters … too much work for them to put together? not enough cooperation by the schools/coaches etc. … I'm going to miss having that info at my finger tips to read before going to see the teams in Scioto county …

The Ironton Tribune did a preview for the Lawrence County Schools but for some reason did not include Portsmouth or Gallipolis..........

I can't believe the Portsmouth Daily Times did not do a preview for the basketball season. These boys and girls work so hard to make the team and represent their school during the season, and represent our county during the post-season tournament. These kids (starter or the 12th man) deserve to be recognized by their local news outlet. Sad, sad, sad. Is there anything anyone can do?
