1989 Teams

[8332 Granite St]

Teams back then were more smash mouth like Jackson but worse. Teams today spread the field and the passing game is way more advanced.

[Seabee_0586]

I think kids had more heart back then so I would have to go with back then to win against now teams

[OVC]

If I'm not mistaking, that year, Wheelersburg beat Coal Grove by like 2 in the first round. My father took me to that game. So Coal Grove may had won state that year if they beat Burg

That was week 2, Burg played the Brookville Tigers at Spartan Stadium in the first round. They didn't play the Grove until the following year, 1990, at Ironton

I think it was back to back years. I was at both. One at Spartan and one at Tank. Now that I think about it I remember Spartan Burg won and at Tank Grove won

Great year for seo. Probably the best year. Like how 12-14 were great for Athens county with Trimble and Athens being a machine. It's cool being able to watch two schools 10 miles apart at state

I remember these games like yesterday. NOt really was only 2 but looks like an amazing year for us southern folk

I remember Grove played their second round game at Spartan to win the region after beating Burg at the Tank in 1990. I really believe Burg played Brookville in the opening round of the 89 playoffs. I don trembler them playing CG other than the regular season. We need a pirate fan to verify for sure.

Couldn't find regional results, but according to the computer ratings, if Wheelersburg & Coal Grove each won their respective first round games in both years, they would've met in regional finals.

1989: 1. Wheelersburg v. 4. Brookville; 2. Coal Grove v. 3. Paint Valley

1990: 1. Coal Grove v. 4. Heath; 2. Crooksville v. 3. Wheelersburg

No I was just curious if green could play with the burg and ironton that year

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

89 was a wonderful year. I had forgotten that team green had. and I was an insurance agent at the time and a big part of my route was the franklin furnace area. but I remember now. ironton won the d3 title over the Campbell memorial devils. and I also watched burg win it as well, but for the life of me I can't remember which team they beat to win the d4 title. awesome year of southern ohio football. when I was in school we had 3 divisons A,AA,AAA and ironton was AA.

SO BURG AND IRONTON DID NOT PLAY THAT YEAR. WOW WHATTA GAME THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN.
IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AWESOME TO SEE THEM BOTH PLAY AT A NUETRAL SITE THAT YEAR AFTER THE STATE TITLE GAMES.
TALK ABOUT A CROWD.

DO YOU BURG FOLK HAVE ANY RECORDS LIKE THIS SHOWING YOUR PAST SEASON. IT WOULD BE AWESOME TO SEE THAT AS WELL HERE.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

somebody tell ole Seabee that this was a cool topic.

ironton had a chance to win titles in 1979, 89, and 99.

they beat akron saint Vincent saint Mary's in 79 for the state title AA.
and beat Campbell memorial in 89 for the state title in D3
and were beaten by Sandusky perkins on an extremely controversial win. ironton clearly converted the 1st down on 4th and 1. and the ball spot didn't favor us. then Sandusky perkins threw a hail mary type pass into the end zone. the guy very apparently had stepped out of bounds, at least that's what I though I saw. and what people closer to the field said. or they'd have won the state title in 79,89,99.

KINDA COOL LOOKIN BACK THROUGH THERE AT THESE. I'D LOVE TO SEE SOMETHING SIMILIAR FOR BURG.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

a very dear person on here was the starting qb here on the 1979 state championship team. but that would be up to him to reveal his name. but he's a fantastic person. you know who you are brother, an ole bait is proud of you, n prayin for you.

[bobcat3]

No I was just curious if green could play with the burg and ironton that year

You're such a liar. You literally only made this just to make Green look good at something for once.
