Interesting, pretty sure a top half finisher in the SOC II lost to them last year!!

First time Portsmouth West played Wheelersburg it was 28-7. I’m sure WC would of won with ease if McGahee would been 100 %.

Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
I think Fort Frye will be the favorites over Nelsonville-York this year. Maybe the 2020 game will be a little more competitive. Too early to speculate on that one.

To early to tell until we see what new Qb can do. I do know he’s working everyday to be ready. Also Fort has more kids lifting then ever. They should be bigger this upcoming season.NYBuckeye96 wrote: Fri Mar 08, 2019 2:20 pm I think Fort Frye will be the favorites over Nelsonville-York this year.

Make no mistake WC will be good.
Even though losing their QB RB and All State Linebacker Shadyside will be as good as last season.

Is fort Frye a new school I thought the Beverly kids went to warren local?
Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
FF has been around for a long time. So has Waterford. Both schools are literally seperated by the Muskingum River with Warren a few miles south.allamericanironman wrote: Sat Mar 09, 2019 2:44 pm Is fort Frye a new school I thought the Beverly kids went to warren local?

Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
Maybe you are confusing Beverly and Barlow? Beverly had its own high school until Fort Frye district consolidated a few schools into FFHS no later than the mid-sixties.allamericanironman wrote: Sat Mar 09, 2019 2:44 pm Is fort Frye a new school I thought the Beverly kids went to warren local?

Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
Ok here is the deal. the sign where you turn says Beverly. Or I think that it does. But Barlow is the other town. Had a family member that lived in Beverly but went to warren local.enigmaax wrote: Sun Mar 10, 2019 9:53 amMaybe you are confusing Beverly and Barlow?

They must have open enrolled or something.

Beverly and Barlow are about 12 miles apart, connected by Rt. 339. Warren also has Bartlett in the district, which is a few miles out Rt. 550. Those two roads meet at the 4-way flashing stop in Barlow. Belpre is the other direction on 339 and there are lots of people who have a Belpre mailing address, but live in Warren district.

Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
My goodness no wonder I’m confused all the towns sound alike. Warren has to cover a lot of area to be the size school they are.enigmaax wrote: Sun Mar 10, 2019 3:08 pmThey must have open enrolled or something.

It really depends on what their incoming recruiting class looks like.
1980-82.....the glory days of Southern basketball. We almost did it!
Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
I see what you mean. The exit from Route 7/50 onto SR 339 is the Beverly exit, but Beverly is further down the road. Fort Frye has been a district since the late 50's, and before that Beverly had its own high school.allamericanironman wrote: Sun Mar 10, 2019 11:19 amOk here is the deal. the sign where you turn says Beverly.

Absolutely , always a factor for WCC. Their Jr hi teams have great difficulty in fielding teams .Almost Champions wrote: Mon Mar 11, 2019 10:05 amouterbanksjake wrote: Sat Mar 09, 2019 6:34 am Make no mistake WC will be good.

Re: Fort Frye adds WV State Champs to schedule
Those were playoff teams last season. Waterford won't be next season and as I stated NY will be down. So, it may be loaded but not because those two are on it. Of course this is JMO. I'm guessing we can still voice those on here.EasternDspy wrote: Wed Mar 06, 2019 7:57 pmWhen your D6 and you add 3 playoff teams one which won state and Nelsonville York your schedule is loaded. 9 of 10 teams will be .500 or better. So yea the schedule is loaded.Ground Buck wrote: Wed Mar 06, 2019 2:20 pmNY will be down again and Waterford will be taking a nose dive back to normal. So, with all that FF returns one would think those would be wins. I can't see Caldwell improving enough to threaten them, and Belpre won't have enough. I don't know much about the rest of their schedule, but those I mentioned don't constitute the "loaded" label.EasternDspy wrote: Fri Feb 22, 2019 3:40 pm Fort Frye will host Wheeling Central in Week 6.

Waterford will still be a playoff team. Nelsonville has good players so I guess we will see.
