Ironton Schedule 2013-2014

[pembrook burrows III]

After graduating all five starters from its Final Four squad, the Fighting Tigers will be challenged by this competitive schedule. Only 9 home games versus 13 away games, plus special event games against teams like Africentric, Grant County KY (Ohio D-1 size, 24-6 last year), Athens, and a travelling team in the Huntington Prep event. By tournament time, this group will have been through the fire.

Indeed, looks like a challenging schedule.

Ironton in the AIT... Isn't it unusual for Ashland to invite non-Kentucky schools?

[trojandave]

Ironton did indeed lose a lot to graduation, but the Fighting Tigers should still field a competitive team. With that schedule, and more road games than home, getting to .500 will be doable but very challenging. Joe Bowling, Nate Garred, Tristan Cox, Jake Long, and Trevor Easterling should be the leaders on the Fighting Tigers.

Portsmouth is supposed to play in the Ironton Classic again this year, not sure of the opponent.

Heard the other kid that came from sp is pretty good,but he is just a soph.plays pg.their top 8 or 9 players will probably include just 1 senior.They wii be young just like football.

Ironton will be fine. Bowling and Cox will step right in and lead the Tigers to a solid season. Very tough schedule though.
