Well conditioning starts tomarrow for the boys . The first step in getting ready for the season. Work hard boys skies the limit.

[Lightle04]

Well with the first official practice comeing up I think the Eagles are going to be one of the most exciting teams to watch this year they are very, very fast have scorers at all 5 stilts on the floor can go very deep into the bench and can crawl up in a team on "d" and make them miserable . I don't know if they can come close to last years success but its sure going to be fun watching them try. They have solid senior leadership and good young talent. Good guards in Lands ,Thacker, Lightle,and Fultz. And good athletic bigs in Pickett,Murphy,Dyke. With depth like Alley,Creech,Lykins,Hesson,Volgamore,Fitch and a few others possible. PJ Fitch as coach they could be a very tuff game for almost any team in the area. Good luck on your season boys were pulling for you.

I see the eagles open with wellston..anyone know what kind of team the rockets will have this year? Who is coaching at Wellston and will they be near top or bottom of tvc? Also seen game 2 and 3 for Eastern are against St.Joe and Oak Hill. Pretty good tests early on

[Lightle04]

Yes coach Fitch has put together quite a tuff schedule to get the boys ready for anouther tourney run.

Piketon played without Brabson, Williams, Southworth & Ferguson I know that.

Add Jeremy farmer and Bowman.

I went to the games on Friday, Piketon looked ok considering the limited roster. Eastern looked a little rough at times, but both teams played a lot of young players. Very little coaching from either side which made the game pretty sloppy and with all the subs in and out there wasn't much flow to the game. Western was the most impressive from my observation, they played pretty well and look to be much improved.

[Lightle04]

I totaly agree Western looked much improved. And Waverly looks to be in trouble.

[Lightle04]

Eastern has a scrimage tomarrow I'm kind of wanting to see what the team looks like with the starters playing together. But none of the teams showed much of anything . They just street balled it. But it was fun and for a good cause.

lightle: I know South Webster is one of the teams scrimmaging against Eastern Pike tonight, who is the other?

[Lightle04]

Fairfield -Leesgurg .Hopeing to get to see Colton and Chad play together at the same time tonight.

[Lightle04]

Sorry it was farland

[beaverlover]

Anyone know how Eastern looked in scrimmage against Webster?

[Lightle04]

That looked ok not super they are transitioning to there new deffensive style . Coach is playing about 8-10 kids right now seeing what combinations are going to work on the floor. There going to be fine I think . Thay scrimage North Adams next. North Adams is a very good team we played them at Hillsboro this summer. There bigs did a number on us . There about 6'5 the 2 of them are very athletic .

[beaverlover]

Is the North Adams scrimmage at home?
