Really excited to see Chillicothe vs. Portsmouth. The Cavaliers are the Trojans' second most frequent opponent, having played 88 times, with CHS holding a 45-43 lead. PHS leads in tournament play 9-4. Ironton is Portsmouth's most frequent opponent, having played the Fighting Tigers 170 times, with PHS leading 94-76.

Looks like the overall schedule has some good matchups.

Warren vs Minford will be a great matchup!!

clevelandbrowns#1 ... exactly right on the money with this matchup! Myles Montgomery(MHS) vs Julian Stadelman (WHS) ... Stadelman doesn't get the push from the media but the young man is as good as ANY PG in SEO ... PG/2 guard shooter & scorer - simply outstanding ... I am assuming the broken wrist suffered in the New Lex game at the Convo has taken care of itself by now although he missed a big chunk of summer ball with the Warren Team due to waiting for doc ok to play - I believe I read somewhere on one of the threads that Stadelman played some towards the end of the summer season ... Montgomery vs Stadelman enough to get me there but throw in the 7-8 seniors Warren brings back - Cressey/Sealey/Wells/Anthony/Lupardus/Cochran/Barry to name a few to go with Stadelman matching up with Shoemaker/Kayser ... Warren is deeper across the board but they will be learning to live without the game contributions of 6-7 Trent Taylor's 16ppg & 8 rbs per game ...

... I like the Fairland vs Hillsboro game as well ...Coach Speed's Fairland Dragons will be in a (for the Dragons) rebuilding year Brody Buchanan will be the guy at PG/SG that will run the show finding players to fit around the lefty will be a big task while Hillsboro will be imo one of the quality teams to beat in SEO all season ...Tate Davis & Jack Howland are the real deal on the perimeter - as good as you will find anywhere in SEO ... transfers Xander Lake ... 6-4 or 5 so. - East Clinton & Jayceon Kibler ... 6-0 - Wilmington will add to the depth for Coach Howland's Indians ... this one will be fun ...
