You asked if I had seen them. The answer was yes..not once but twice. You asked where I got my opinion "Waverly just don't have the depth or talent based on what I saw". Maybe you need to learn to read.Sports-nut wrote:Wow I guess you can't read either. Check my post again. I asked two questions. Are from Wheelersburg, cause you act like one of them?
Who didn't give Waverly much of a chance? Lol. They had one of the best players in not only the SE District, but the State and a very good supporting cast around him. They were the 2 seed in the SE Sectional, behind the 1 seed Chillicothe, who also won a District Championship.toast wrote:Excited to see Waverly play at the convo again. Such a fun place to watch a game or two. The nice seats alone are enough to entice me to make the trip.
Waverly is the underdog. There's no disputing that. But we'll bring a big crowd, our kids will play hard and we'll see what happens. No one gave us much of a chance when we won a district championship just a few years ago.
I've been reading and posting on this site for several years. Here's what I've noticed. When discussing an upcoming game most of the fans from both schools are somewhat guarded and even humble in their comments. It's usually a kid or someone from another school that stirs the pot or makes crass comments.
One question. This game is scheduled to begin at 7:00. Are there earlier games at the convo Saturday?

I don't remember the seedings but I remember the thread on Waverly vs Fairland. Most everyone had Fairland winning the game. I believe their record was something around 20-2. Waverly had 5 or 6 losses if memory serves me right. Fairland was absolutely loaded and they were the favorite. Pfloyd gave a nice breakdown of the game and also had Fairland winning. It was a fair and accurate analysis.
Waverly was 17-5. Fairland, at best, was 18-4. They were both 14-4 at the time of the seeding. Fairland was the 4 seed, behind a 12-5 Unioto team. This all took 45 seconds to research.toast wrote:"Who didn't give Waverly much of a chance? Lol.

...and there it is. The lame post in about every tourney thread..hbk1999 wrote:Rumor has it VC has lobbied to have this game cancelled. Apparently Waverly is such an inferior opponent that the OHSAA has awarded them the victory and moved them to the championship game at which time they will evaluate that opponent and possibly move them onto the Regionals based on talent alone.
No offense but attacking the rim is VC's strength and what they do best. If this happens it gets ugly quick.king kong wrote:Waverly by 2, 58-56. They have the speed to slow down the VC offense, and the Convo rim creature will force the Vikings to have to attack the rim, thus playing into Waverlys strength of on the ball defense.
Umm, thats why I said Waverly has the speed to slow down that part of VC's game! lolhateraid wrote:No offense but attacking the rim is VC's strength and what they do best.

Come on man read your post. You said it would "force the Vikings to have to attack the rim" like that's not what VC will try to do anyway. Trust me that's what they want to do. You won't have to "force" them. You should really work on your skills of covering up rediculous statements.king kong wrote:Umm, thats why I said Waverly has the speed to slow down that part of VC's game! lolhateraid wrote:No offense but attacking the rim is VC's strength and what they do best.

The guy who can not properly use the word "thinks" doesn't want to get into a battle of wits?? Your grammar is as bad as your basketball knowledge.
