where will the regional final be played? could be an interesting factor for which team has to travel to the other site. big difference between the convo and the barn.

I recall the last time an SHl team defeated Eastern Meigs @ the Convo.....that team went on to the regionals...won their first game and then had the extreme disadvantage of playing the loaded Fisher Catholic team who just won theri regional semi by around 30.


.....but the SHL team prevailed again and onto the Final 4

I think sparky was at most of those games...is that correct or is my comparison way off base?



Seems like Oak Hill heard these exact words last year...how'd they end up?

Fisher Catholic has never been a good basketball school ( I don't remember them ever being loaded) and Oak Hill had one of their closest and most hard fought games with Newark Catholic last year in Athens before winning the state title. NC had their nucleus returning this year and have the talent to win their first basketball title. They'll probably win the baseball title again this year also as they have about everyone returning and next fall they've got a boat load of talent to work with in football to contend for another state title there also. All I know is that it must be nice to go from sport to sport and the biggest conversation topic is about which sport you won't be competitive enough in to at least challenge for a state title !!!!!

I understand that but the implication is that teams will come all the way back and beat you if you let them stay in the game in the middle of the 4th quarter after you had a 15 point lead in the 3rd.


Manchesters style of play is not real conducive to holding leads in tight ballgames, they will have to force the issue against TOL.

That's what I am thinking and it (style) could backfire !!!!!

i hate to get on here and bash our coach, but i just dont understand him sometimes...we ( manchester ) had a good lead-18,19 or so ? near the end of the 3rd quarter and he put 2 kids out on the court that never play, and pretty much had a 4 guard lineup...what happens? southern gets a few buckets and some confidence and slowly start to creep pback into the gm...my whole thing is, i played high school basketball when i was 15-18 yrs old and i NEVER got tired theres no reason to EVER have combs,hanson,blevins and ricketts sitting the bench "resting" at the same time.....with that being said go hounds, tough game tuesday, could of been worse ( harvest prep lost ) and hopefully coach lockhart reads this

Who in the heck is the Tree of Life? Is that really a school? Is this another BB prep school?

Good luck Manchester........the Greyhounds have already beaten some very good teams, so this game is winnable if MHS brings their best game.

This is from a newspaper article in December...

Tree of Life is led by 6-foot-4 senior forward Bryan Redic, who scored a game-high 25 points in a 64-57 win over Delaware Christian last Friday. Last season, he was named first-team all-MOCAL, all-district, as well as special mention all-state.

Also back are junior point guard Nick Levin, who was honorable mention all-MOCAL last season, and 5-10 senior guard Dannye Winkfield, who scored 20 points against Delaware Christian.

Senior center Joel Lutsch (6-7) has provided muscle in the middle and junior guard Tremayne Blanks (6-1) also has been a valuable contributor.

Also on the roster are seniors Michael Marrah (6-2), Sam Sheedy (5-10) and Mitch Shonkwiler (5-11), junior Chase Grayson (6-1) and sophomores Kyle O'Donnell (6-0) and Rashawn Thompson (6-2).

http://www.thisweeknews.com/live/conten ... up_sp.html

As for their schedule this year...

@ Northside Christian 68-22 (W)
@ Northridge 60-36 (W)
Gahanna Christian Academy 75-47 (W)
@ Fairfield Christian Academy 68-40 (W)
Whitehall-Yearling 57-69 (L)
Delaware Christian 64-57 (W)
Ridgedale 60-29 (W)
@ Grove City Christian 57-37 (W)
Fisher Catholic 57-53 (W)
Horizon Science Academy 70-37 (W)
Madison Christian 67-42 (W)
@ South Urban Academy 54-57 (L)
@ Gahanna Christian Academy 72-53 (W)
Fairfield Christian Academy 69-28 (W)
@ Delaware Christian 76-46 (W)
@ Mount Vernon Academy 57-43 (W)
@ Gilead Christian 58-37 (W)
@ Madison Christian 58-48 (W)
Grove City Christian 61-42 (W)
Delaware Christian 64-34 (W)
@ Marion Catholic 53-35 (W)
@ Harvest Prep 49-40 (W)

That schedule is from Max Preps. It's worth nothing that even though they have had an obscene amount of success in their Mid-Ohio Christian Athletic League over the last decade, this year marks the first district title the school has ever won.

I don't have either on hand as I'm on my mobil posting this, but tree of life is a pretty big team with 6 guys over 6"1 with a 6"7 and 6"4 guy... Their 6"7 center is not that good, just tall.... Their 6"4 Bryan redic is very good avgs about 20 pts and 12 reb and dunks pretty easily in games..... Tree of lifes schedule ( 23-2 ) was fairly easy beating alot of teams ranked 700th or worse, but with all that being said they did beat harvest prep , so we can't take them lightly

I like Manchester in both this game and the next one if you play with intensity.

I'm an Eastern Meigs guy and I believe you've got the ingredients to win this regional. Don't be distracted by the naysayers or the fact that this is a regional game. I know I'll get pounded for this but you're not going to play anyone better than you've already won against this season. You should go in expecting to win.

Few teams win a state championship without a little luck somewhere along the way....could be in one of their games or maybe somewhere else along the way (ToL knocking off HP). Preparation and hard work tilts luck in your direction.

Good luck and I hope you win.

Apparently Manchester must win every 30 second block of the game. No way can they allow more than 2 points in a row at any time or they'll lose.




houndsfan just said they had an 18 point lead late in the 3rd and took out 4 starters.......maybe in thsi game he'll leave thsoe guys in to hold onto that lead longer and then tire out very late and only win by 12 instead of 10.....big, big difference.
