Any thoughts?
Predictions?

I like Western in a close one at home 69-65

I as well like Western in a close one @ home on a few conditions.

1) - They play as a team like they have the past few games.
2) - Everyone is back and healthy. (Shanks has missed last several games due to illness, Riggs and foreigner due to injuries.).
3) - Control the ball and do NOT turn it over. Several, and I mean several dumb turnovers in the loss @ Paint Valley over the weekend.

All in all, I'm looking forward to the match-up tonight in Latham. If Shanks is back, I'm looking forward to the matchup of him and Thacker from Eastern.

My early prediction is Western on top 50-42. Without Shanks/Riggs/Foreigner, could be a different story.

Nonetheless, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO INDIANS!!! WOO!!!

36-24 Western. Halftime.

59-53 2:12 to go. Shanks at line for 2

62-56. 1:19 to go. Shanks at line again for 2. Both in dbl bonus

1:08. 64-56 western. Timeout

71-62. Western. Final.

I told you!!!

You were definitely close buckeye. Was a hard fought game by both teams. Western jumped out to a quick 5-0 lead and never looked back. Think Western may be a sleeper this year in the league. Watch out for them, they're playing good ball.

Couldn't agree more

Coach Miller has molded this team in his image ! Tough nosed team plays hard start to finish . I'm not sure how the rest of the season will go but these boys sure do make our community proud by there effort on the floor.

Western has shown "major" improvement from that 32-75 opener with Adena !!! great to see the turnaround … usually a "turnaround" or "big improvement" means the kids are "listening to the coaches", "executing on the court" , "getting good coaching" , "believing in what the coaches are teaching" , " learning from mistakes" … sounds like all of the above for Western … great to see !!! - and the committee of one - me - I'm watching the Latham boys … best of luck vs a good Portsmouth Clay squad this Friday night !!!

Leist was not in this game, due to an ankle injury. I was told at the game that it's a pretty bad sprain. Unknown how long he could be out.
