From what I'm told...they are that good. Valley will continue to improve and would have probably given them a better game later in the season. Bad early season matchup for the Indians.

Valley is a good team

[ohiostbucks99]

With the great football would like to see the Indians play Ironton later in the year

[SOCMAN05]

Ironton is that good , look 4 them 2 make an appearance in CBUS later on !

[blue53]

always a good laugh to look back and see some of the predictions on who wins, by how many points.

good win for the Indians

Couldn't agree more. Great road win.

Ironton is that good, Clay is that bad. This year the SOC champ could have 2-3 losses before the title is decided.

[ohiostbucks99]

Don't see valley having 3 losses in league

Stats?

[oldfalcon]

Congrats to Valley on the road win. Their defense got better throughout the game. While both teams are good ball clubs, Valley showed that winning edge as they have in both football and bball the past two seasons. Valley just turned the SOC into a dog fight the rest of the season. Minford found out they have to do more than just show up to win.

Stats?

I can't remember them all. I do know that Dunn finished with 20-7 (positive on the 20-95% on the 7) I believe West was 12-7. Will Howard finished with 10 points and I think Brian Rolfe and Chris Flowers both had 9. Valley had 12 turnovers and was 6-16 from the line.

I know they announced McBee had 30 for Minford.

[SOCMAN05]

Classy post OLD Falcon ! 2 very good teams going at it ! The SOC 2 is going to be very entertaining this season to say the least .

[lrn4lf]

Coaching, coaching, coaching! McBee should be shooting 9 out of 10 shots. Stop passing so much. Best player on the floor and can carry us but needs to shoot more!

ughh here we go with the nay sayers..

Sounds like 2 great/quality TEAMS in SOuthern Ohio got after it in a Round 1 Matchup of Heavy Weights ... sounded like a great game to be in the cheap seats no matter which team you were supporting - great high school hoops is GREAT HIGH SCHOOL HOOPS! ... all the good teams learn win or lose , they get better and move forward ... Minford and Valley qualify as two heavyweights Below the Lancaster-DIxon Line - BOTH get nothing but better from this one - and move on ...

... looking forward to reading any/all of the napkin stats from this one - want to see the LVHS 2012 version of the BIGS did tonight ... as well as how they handle on the ball pressure ...


These kind of games is what high school hoops is all about - I love it !!! congratulation to both teams on a great game put on for the cheap seat guys ...

Pfloyd-

Valley flat out defended and got after it in the 4th. The big man in the middle, Hayden Dunn, led the Indians with 20. He is our one true "big" but we are very long on the perimeter. We got great games from our only senior receiving significant minutes, Will Howard, and the big time freshman Bryan Rolfe. These two were huge down the stretch. Jordan West had what I believe to be a career high 9 boards. Just a great team win.

Factor in that the Purple and Gold were 4-15 from 3 and 6-16 from the stripe, and the Indians are only going to get better as they get their basketball muscles.
