Ironton didn’t play a MAC team or Kirtland last year. That didn’t help them break their 33 year drought.LockHerUp wrote: Wed Jun 07, 2023 6:53 pm If they would've played a MAC team or Kirtland, the burg wouldn't have won in '17. That title should have an asterisk beside it. VERY lucky...

You have no way of knowing that. Middletown Madison and Pemberville Eastwood weren't mediocre teams. They hit hard and had a tough offense. I would have put my money on Burg against a MAC team or Kirtland that year.

Burg can barely make it out of their region. Present day they don't pose any threat unless its a threat to wear out a couch cushion when the postseason progresses beyond their region.yabbadabbadoo wrote: Thu Jun 08, 2023 7:20 amLockHerUp wrote: Wed Jun 07, 2023 6:53 pm If they would've played a MAC team or Kirtland, the burg wouldn't have won in '17.

Btw, that ML team was ranked #11 in the state regardless of school size (possibly best ML team of all time), so impressive that Burg could be within a few scores of them. That’s something Ironton could only dream about.

Now Ironton? Regional title is the best they can; state titles in any sport are out of the question.

Since Burg’s last state title in 2017, Burg and Ironton have the same number of state titles: ZERO! So much for Ironton “getting out of the region” just to get embarrassed in the title game. But to be fair, that’s as good as it gets for Ironton. It’s not 1989 anymore.BTWNTHE__ wrote: Thu Jun 08, 2023 11:41 am

The real debate we should have is: how long will Ironton’s drought continue? 33 years is a very long time, but I think they can add to that. Put the over/under at 50 years?
