There are 9 or 10 teams in D-II that can win over anyone else on a given night. Lots of variables. VC better than some of the teams seeded higher. FU and Unioto both playing their best ball right now.pioneer19 wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 1:44 pm There are a number of teams in D2 I can see pulling upsets. As a Marietta fan, a potential sectional rematch vs Fairfield Union isn't something I'm thrilled about. Should the two advance past their first opponents, I expect a close game. FU knocked MHS out of the tournament last season.
Sheridan is another team to watch. They are battle tested and I could see them pulling an upset or maybe two to get to the Convo. I think they can compete well with both Unioto and Washington.
Teams like Circleville, Hillsboro, and Vinton County won't be pushovers for the higher seeds either. It's going to be a lot of fun to watch.
Yep, every other district does it the other way. The Southeast District will continue to do what they can to do the least amount of work as possible and to get some teams eliminated before the regular season actually ends too.IVCHAWKS wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 2:16 pm Is the Southeastern district ever going to change and let the coaches pick there line, instead of doing like the NCAA does it,I would think maybe some of these higher seeds, would prefer not to take a bye and I'm sure would like to give there team a rest and to heal bumps and bruises also, I'm pretty the rest of the districts in the state,let the coaches pick there spot
Agreed. I would be very surprised if seeds 1-8 all advance to the sectional finals.SouthEast Hoops Fan wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 2:31 pmThere are 9 or 10 teams in D-II that can win over anyone else on a given night.

I’m not sure how much say that have in the overall changes, just that they would like to see some tweaks and whatnot. It would go through their district rep, at least it has in the past.IVCHAWKS wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 4:39 pm Hey danicalifornia, doesn't the coaches have any say in southeast district,on how they do the tournament draw, I'm hearing a lot of coaches are saying the MaxPreps RPI needs a lot more tweaks done ,with the seedings process,I myself still like martins RPI seedings alot better than MaxPreps seedings
Especially since both times burg beat valley by only six pointsThe Ghost of Swanker wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 1:40 pmBurg playing west or valley for a third time.basketballmind wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 8:38 am Who do y’all think is on upset alert come tournament time?

Only beat west by one the first time I think. Still have to play one more time. Bad draw for the burg if you ask me.Valley91 wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 9:27 pmEspecially since both times burg beat valley by only six pointsThe Ghost of Swanker wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 1:40 pmBurg playing west or valley for a third time.basketballmind wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 8:38 am Who do y’all think is on upset alert come tournament time?

You mean Valley don’t you? The Senators 1-3-1 doesn't do much. Teams like Valley will just pass it around and make West seem like they are doing something goodThe Ghost of Swanker wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 1:40 pmBurg playing west or valley for a third time.basketballmind wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 8:38 am Who do y’all think is on upset alert come tournament time?

It might work on inferior teams like valley or Burg but not the state bound South Webstern JeepsCameron34Crazie34 wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 10:46 pmYou mean Valley don’t you?

Don’t say that or you’ll make Dundas mad.
I’d love nothing more than VC to win their first tournament game and then upset Warren in the sectional final! There’s been some great games between the Vikings and Warriors in this postseason! Two of the best programs over the last 20 years in southeast Ohio. Bring it on.
Just don’t let them in the TVC though. We don’t need anyone interrupting VC’s domination of the conference.Dundas wrote: Tue Feb 13, 2024 7:20 pmI’d love nothing more than VC to win their first tournament game and then upset Warren in the sectional final!
