He is on the roster on their website. It will be his first time playing his home school barring some type of injury like our last two scrimmages against them.jchitwood wrote:Dylan Brown still plays for Northwest, yes?
Thats what I thought too but they have beat a decent Waverly team and are supposed to be near the top of the SOC II. But Oak Hill almost lost to a sub-par White Oak squad so who knows how strong that conference actually is this season.peeblesfan97 wrote:Tribe,
Wheelersburg must be down this year if they only beat Northwest by 8 points.
He had 2111. Blake should get 2000 no problem but it will take some stellar play and a deep tourny run to break Cluxton's mark. If we win state he will only have to average 20.2ppg the rest of the way out to beat it by one :122245 .sparky wrote:how many points does cluxton have?
Someone always has to try to put a negative spin on an outstanding performance. Congrats on your victory Greyhounds.mhs95_06 wrote:I read on another thread that Justice hit 13 treys, scoring 42 points in the 67-65 loss to Manchester.
Any idea how many treys and total FGs Blake attempted? Also how many did he miss while they were up with less than 4 minutes to go? How many points did Peebles score in the last 4 minutes?
I'm from Marietta and have not ever seen Manchester or Peebles play anywhere other than at the OU Convo to which I make frequent treks during tourney time.mattchristopher wrote:riiiiiight mhs95_06.

Well just to end the debate he shot 65% from downtown.mhs95_06 wrote:I'm from Marietta and have not ever seen Manchester or Peebles play anywhere other than at the OU Convo to which I make frequent treks during tourney time.mattchristopher wrote:riiiiiight mhs95_06.

Manchester just showed up and played their best game of the season. I watched them against Reedsville Eastern and they had a completely different team on the floor last night. Turnovers down the stretch and # of free throws taken was the deciding factor in that game.hangman wrote:The shots he missed towards the end wasn't the problem, because he made his free throws when they were needed. It might have been the two turnovers in the last 1:15. That was probaly the biggest error, and Manchester also never gave up and it showed.
He shot 13 of 21 from the 3 point line, 0 for 5 from the two's and 3 of 4 from the stripe. You can do the math and decide for yourself. I was just amazed with the 3 point shooting of 62%, I guess you had to be there. Stats via maxpreps.commhs95_06 wrote:I was accused on another thread of already knowing the answers to my questions. I do not have any knowledge of the game other than what I've read here. What intrigued me was the comments by peeblesfan97: "Blake Justice put on one of the better shooting displays Ive ever seen in high school hoops." I thought great shooting performances are typified by high percentages, so I asked if anyone could give further info.
Then, being a great fan of the strategy of the game, I got to thinking how the game went in those last four minutes with Peebles losing their good 7 point working margin with no shot clock. Did they take some shots they maybe shouldn't have? Maybe Blake was hot and went cold the last 4 minutes. Was the score over the last 4 minutes 9-0 or 19-10, or somewhere in between? Did Peebles miss a lot of free throws? I've seen great shooters before have a great game, and get too much confidence. They are feeling it and keep shooting even though proper strategy doesn't call for it. A little fatique comes in with their great confidence and they start trying to get the ball into the hoop more directly and flatten out the shots and start missing, and then the lead evaporates. Just wondering if some of that may have been a factor in this game.
