Pfloyd's Elite 8 of Southern/SouthEast Ohio Week #2
Posted: Sun Dec 13, 2009 7:32 pm
... okay!!!! has the merry-go-round stopped yet ???? what a week of hoops Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line - for the 2nd week running the Elite 8 numero "uno" has been beaten as Chesapeake fell to Southern Ohio strongmen Ironton and Waverly ... Piketon had in one week LOOKED to be one of the top 3 teams Below the Line BUT after taking down a talented Zane Trace team Tuesday night , the Streaks found life on the road vs last years nemesis Huntington to be the proverbial "pain in the backside" yet again as the Huntsmen knocked off PHS 52-49 ... Chillicothe came off their first W of the season against Xenia at the Hat looking to break their own losing streak vs Logan Elm ( losing twice last season) - not to be as the Braves soundly spanked the Cavs at the Reservation 49-34 ... Zane Trace continued it's fall from grace going 0-2 in the Week that Was - losing to Piketon by 20 before rounding out the week on the down swing losing to SHL's Peebles at the Convo by 5 , 61-66 ... ON THE BRIGHT side for teams on the elite list - Logan Elm picked up 2 W's ( Amanda Clearcreek/Chillicothe) to remain undefeated at 3-0 ... Peebles pushed it's record to 3-0 with wins over Ripley and Zane Trace ... Warren joined the 3-0 parade with wins vs Washington county rival Fort Frye and Maysville from the MVL ...
... taking a look down the lists there were quality wins had during the first full week/weekend of the 2009-10 Hoops campaign ... Waverly rebounded from its opening night loss to Logan Elm by picking up 2 wins - vs (2-1) Lucasville Valley (58-44) and finishing off the Peake at the Convo Saturday afternoon 63-56 ... Manchester knocked off Ironton @ I'town 66-62 ... Ironton itself had just come off of a home victory over at the time number one Chesapeake in OT 66-63 ... Jackson was a surprise easy winner over Athens 70-44 ... the Eastern Brown Warriors went to 3-0 on the season beating Fairland at the Convo 61-52 ... Reedsville Eastern continued to make believers by picking up their 4th win - beating a Huntington Ross team (50-36) which was fresh off an upset win over Piketon ... is your head spinning yet ? can you say "on any given night ...." ? ... this is exactly why as a sports fan that you have to love high school basketball - this year in particular the cream WAS at the top in the "preseason" list BUT it would seem that those same cream of the crop teams will have to "regroup" to get to the top once again as the season moves along ... finally let's give our congratulations to Coach Gary Shaffer of Washington Court House - Coach Shaffer picked up win 599 as the Lions beat Miami Trace 82-64 Friday night ...
