Nice lineup pfloyd! Can’t complain about my Dragons. They’ve exceeded expectations thus far! Peake ahead of them is fine cause Peake is legit! Can’t wait to see how the Dragons play against Warren next Saturday.

[BigChuck]

Gallia is ranked WAY too high...just like their football team, that is a very bad basketball team.

[Ironman92]

New Lex must have an SEC schedule

[pfloyd]

New Lex must have an SEC schedule

Losses to :

Tri Valley (5-1) regional semifinalist last season
Maysville (5-1) D2 final 4 last season
Sheridan (4-2)
Bishop Watterson (2-0)

... New Lex returns everyone but 1 graduated senior ... 4/5 starters return ...

Sheridan feels like they should be much closer to them at this point

While I think this is a down year in the district as a whole, there are still some outstanding teams at the top that might be able to take serious advantage of the 7 division setup.

Will round 1 games be at the better seed’s home?

I believe so and starting with the district semi’s they’ll be at a neutral with the finals at the Convo for all divisions.

Obviously that changes if there aren’t enough teams to have district quarters and before.

Can’t wait to see the brackets for some extremely watered-down district championships. Will have teams beating a 6-17 team and then 11-12 team and being district champs

Does 5-0 Minford not exist? Or are my eyes just not seeing them?

No doubt and the watering down of the tournament will have the complete opposite effect in Division III.

With only 6 schools, the 2 seed will likely have to face the 3 seed in their first game (the top 3 seeds will probably be some order of Miami Trace, Warren, and Marietta), then the 1 seed in the semifinals if seeds hold (Sheridan and Chillicothe will be tough outs). Make it through those two games and you face the winner of the loaded DIII East District in the finals.

It will be a well-earned district title, but there won’t be the build up like in the past and you have district championship caliber matchups in the first round and regional final caliber matchups in the district finals.

Minford is ranked first, tied with Meigs.

[EagleNut14]

Waverly only has two wins. What’s your reason for having Eastern ranked below Wheelersburg after they beat Burg at Burg and Western also ahead of Eastern after getting beat by Burg at Western?

[/qu

Had a chance to to win the Watterson game at the end, very quality loss. Not to mention New Lex has given Steubenville their only loss. Don't let their record fool you, a very tough team to defend with 2 high level guards and play very fundamental defense. Not a team I'd want to play later in the year.

Oh no doubt they are a very good team and schedule has been strong with teams that no one might beat…I just don’t like 4-4 being over 7-0 team that has very quality wins. It’s still super early.

Pfloyd does great work…I was just debating some and now we all know a bit more about New Lex

Merry Christmas everyone
