Division 2 Sectionals

danicalifornia · Post by **danicalifornia** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 8:56 am

How would you seed each sectional? The seeding meeting is Sunday, so lets get some thoughts out there.
If you have records for each team, post them below if they aren't listed, thanks.

Alexander:
Athens-2-10
Gallia Academy-3-9
Fairfield Union-7-8
Jackson-5-7
Marietta-8-6
Meigs
New Lexington-4-11
Sheridan-12-3
Vinton County-12-1
Warren-9-6

Adena:
Circleville-12-2
Chillicothe-10-3
Hillsboro-0-13
Logan Elm-11-3
McClain-10-3
Miami Trace-13-2
Unioto-13-1
Washington CH-6-8
Waverly-3-10

A couple of interesting games before the draw:
Circleville @ Logan Elm- Both teams are 8-2 in the MSL and LE took the 1st meeting, if Circleville wins, they are probably the 1 seed in the Adena sectional
Miami Trace @ McClain- This could effect any seedings between 3-6, IMO. MT won by 11 at home

A couple of notes in the Adena sectional:
Logan Elm defeated Circleville at Circleville
Circleville defeated Chillicothe @ Chillicothe
Circleville defeated Miami Trace @ Circleville
Unioto defeated Logan Elm @ Unioto

Adena Predictions:
1- Unioto
2- Logan Elm
3- Circleville
4- Miami Trace
5- Chillicothe
6- McClain
7- Washington
8- Waverly
9- Hillsboro

I'm taking LE tomorrow night over Circleville and MT over McClain. Assuming Unioto takes care of business against Zane Trace tonight, they should have the advantage over LE based on head to head. The 4/5 game should be outstanding no matter who is in it.

Alexander Predictions:
1- Vinton County
2- Sheridan
3- Warren
4- Marietta
5- Fairfield Union
6- Meigs
7- Jackson
8- New Lex
9- Gallia Academy
10- Athens

Sheridan plays a tough schedule and most likely has 4 losses(played 14-1 Tri Valley, D1 last night) Marietta may jump Warren if Warren losses to Chillicothe this weekend.

Warren is 9-6. If they beat Chilli saturday they are in the drivers seat for the #2 spot in the SEOAL North. I think that would be enough to swap Marietta and Warren with Warren getting the #3.

What does Amanda beating LE do to the seedings?

I like your Adena picks.And you may not be off by much.

danicalifornia · Post by **danicalifornia** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 9:38 pm

BP- I think that if LE beats Circleville again, that you can't possibly have Circleville seeded higher, IMO. That's why I had LE listed as the 2, if Chillicothe could've beat Marietta earlier in the week, then they would still have an argument for the 1, since the 1 point loss to Circleville.

If Circleville beats LE, I think LE is either the 4 or the 5 seed, either way, it doesn't really matter. All I know is that you want to avoid any seed that isn't the 1 or 2, because the top 6 are all so tough.

If Logan Elm beats Circleville

1. Unioto
2. Logan Elm
3. Circleville
4. Miami Trace
5. Chillicothe
6. McClain
7. Washington
8/9 Waverly-Hillsboro

If Circleville beats Logan Elm

1. Circleville
2. Unioto
3. Miami Trace (2 losses)
4. Logan Elm (4 losses)
5. Chillicothe
6. McClain
7. Washington
8/9 Waverly-Hillsboro

Circleville has to play @ Vinton County too on Feb 2.
Will not be an issue for the seedings, but should be a good game!
Could be a game between two top seeded sectional teams!

GO VIKES

Black Panther · Post by **Black Panther** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 11:51 pm

Circlevillle laid one on LE tonight so I would say the #1 is Circleville.Can Unioto make a case at this point?

danicalifornia · Post by **danicalifornia** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 12:32 am

BP- They can, but it's not much of a case. They beat Logan Elm and everyone else on their schedule, but Huntington(who is 14-1) All they can really say is that they don't control their own schedule, but I think they can't possibly drop below a 2 seed, IMO.

GO CAVS! · Post by **GO CAVS!** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 4:13 pm

Chillicothe defeated Warren today and they are 12th in the state, Circleville is 15th in the state. You can make an arguemrnt that Chillicothe could get a 1, 2, or 3 seed.

danicalifornia · Post by **danicalifornia** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 5:21 pm

Except for losing at Home to Circleville and getting beat at home by a 6 loss Marietta team.

Most likely, they'll land the 4 seed. State Rankings don't mean a thing, especially when your home town paper votes for you, no matter what you do.

GO CAVS! · Post by **GO CAVS!** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 5:27 pm

I don't think anyone will be voting to play the Cavs at this sectional. I don't thinl they care where they end up. It will be a great sectional. If you come out of that sectional, you have accomplished something and anything can happen.

danicalifornia · Post by **danicalifornia** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 5:58 pm

Go Cavs- Just because I think Chillicothe will get the 4 seed, doesn't mean that anyone wants to play them! I know I don't want to see Unioto get matched up with them! I think the home loss to Marietta will be what hurts the Cavs the most.

BTW, Who is Circleville sending to represent them? They play Kettering Alter tomorrow afternoon and I'm guessing no one will want to miss that from Circleville.

After the weekends games how do you see the Adena seedings? Is Circleville's body of work complete even though they have a game tomorrow?

danicalifornia · Post by **danicalifornia** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 10:13 pm

My guess is:
1. Circleville- Yes, they have 2 losses, but have beaten Logan Elm(split), Miami Trace, AND Chillicothe in the sectional. I think tomorrow's game should be left out, unless they win.
2. Unioto- I know the schedule isn't the toughest(down SVC year) but have only lost once(on the road, by a point) and defeated Logan Elm pretty easily.
3. Miami Trace- 2 losses, but will have some help from fellow SCOL voters to get them the 3 and that way give them a better shot at a district title(not having to play Chillicothe AND Circleville to get out)
4. Chillicothe- The scariest team in the sectional, but have 3 losses, including a bad one to Marietta last week. If not for that loss, I think they are the 2 seed.
5. Logan Elm- Funny thing is, I had them as the 2 seed before last night's game. They were pounded by Circleville, but they did get a win over them earlier in the season. They have 4 losses, so they could also drop to the 6.
6. McClain- Something like 10-4. You could almost swap them with Logan Elm, but they may campaign for the 6 seed, to avoid Chillicothe.
7. Washington Court House- Played Unioto decently at home, so I doubt they would be scarred of a rematch and may vote for it.
8. Waverly
9. Hillsboro

I think a lot of politicking will go on tomorrow for seeds 2-6. No one wants to see Chillicothe and no one really knows about Unioto. Unioto's schedule could hurt them, but it isn't so bad to where you can write them off completly. They play McClain on Tuesday, so if that could've just been today, it could've made a lot of movement for the draw.

No matter what happens, this has to be one of the toughest sectionals in the state. 6 very good teams, all with 10+ wins. I doubt many places can say something like that.

This sectional is as tough as nails. Some people feel a sect title isn't worth much but if you get a sect title coming out of Adena, it should be something to be very proud of.

This could be interesting.lol
