Beat Dayton Chaminade-Julienne and Lima Shawnee, and lost to Fremont Ross and Tallmadge. Should be a top D5 team this year, and Ater will always have them rebounding and playing tough defense.

South Webster went 3-1; Minford 0-4; and Burg 0-4 at the same event. Real tough competition that made all these SE Ohio teams better.*
art_vandelay, do you know if Drew Haggy played with the Minford big 3 at this event ? 0-4? I really liked the sophomores (now juniors) at Wheelersburg last season - Rucker/Bivens/Evans/McGraw ... Logan Adkins (6-2) was part of that class - now transferred to PHS ... Lattimore WAS a big, big, big reason for the Burg success last season - going to have some adjustment to the roles without Lattimore this season ...
Carson Whitt who is in Burgs junior class is very athletic and has serious hops and why he never seen any varsity time last year was very surprising to me imo he should be a starter this year and we have the Miller kid who will be a sophomore is really good i think Burg is just lacking some size but other than that should be fun to watch and should have a great defense

I 100% agree with you on Xavier Miller. He is one of the best soph. in the area.

Carson Whitt is an absolute freak of an athlete, I think with learning to play with passion and not emotion he could be a great asset to the Burg rotation this season. Last season, he would play extremely well and then get multiple fouls in a row and then would have to sit down which hurt his team. Burg will be a force this season.

Agreed on Whitt…watched some Burg jv games last year and couldn’t figure out why he wasn’t getting some run on varsity. Only thing I’d add is his first name is Kasen.

Overall, Burg will always play defense and rebound. Scoring going to be an issue, but they’ll somehow win 15+ games and be right in mix for SOC III championship with Minford and South Webster.*
