Zanesville 76 Portsmouth 55

[ZvilleBlueDevil]

EEEEEEENUFF with the bad weather Can Zanesville continue there streak or will the Trojan's come out on top in this game..

GO BLUE DEVIL"S

[trojandave]

The forecast calls for temperatures in the 50's......so this game will be played.

As far as the game, the Trojans are suffering from lack of play, having played only 1 game since Jan.23........last Saturday vs. South Point, PHS built a 12 point lead, only to almost give the game away in the final 2 minutes. Portsmouth had 3 players in double figures, led by 27 points from Anthony Williams.

I don't think Portsmouth has played enough games lately to get any kind of momentum.......so I'm not sure what to expect Friday night. But I know one thing......Zanesville has been playing better, and Coach Aronhalt will have his Blue Devils ready. Since PHS and ZHS entered the SEOAL, it has been a one sided series with the Blue Devils winning big every time.

We can beat Zanesville, but it will take an above average game by the Trojans......something they are fully capable of.........Portsmouth is a better team than last year's Trojans.

GO TROJANS!!!

bring ozzie down we can get a pick up game going.

we are all 3 pretty good size fellars,,,who would pick us up when we fell

[ZvilleBlueDevil]

I think Zanesville thrives on cold weather it was in the below 0 when we played Ironton and presently a balmy 2 this morning so get ready for the artic express agin on friday hopefully if we play like we did against Ironton we can win this game...


GO BLUE DEVIL"S

[Hoopster]

[biggdowgg]

Can i hear a "AMEN"

[trojandave]

Tobias: You bring up an interesting scenario........right now the consensus opinion is that Portsmouth is going to be an #8 or #9.......but with the possibility of going 9-5 into the draw, I just can't see the Trojans dropping below a #6 if they sweep the weekend games..........at least I don't think it would be justified if Portsmouth got below a #6 with a 9-5 record........but the Waverly sectional is dominated by SVC and SHL schools.......so that leaves us on an island when it comes down to the voting.

I think it's important, regardless of the seeding voting, for the kids to win these two games to build some confidence and momentum heading into the next 2 weeks, with 3 games each week.

Zanesville will a be tough foe, but they are beatable.........GO TROJANS!!!

[biggdowgg]

I want to be a botom seed,and play the top seed.


24 hours from game time,and no snow in the forcast

[tropical breeze]

Anyone here that doesn't think Portsmouth can win their bracket? Looks like a pretty strong no 9 seed.

[ZvilleBlueDevil]

Zanesville need's this one just as bad as the Trojan's :
1-To keep pace with Marietta and we still got them at home 2-10
2-Our tourney will be brutal but we need momentum and confidence
3-Were taking 1 game at a time it's Portsmouth only right now

So if we cut down the to's tonite and continue the good "D" we have been
playing lately and run a good offense which we can we will be in this game no doubt!!!and make the trip home pleasant

GO BLUE DEVIL"S

[biggdowgg]

stil pretty cold out there.

hope we can get this one in

[trojandave]

Hope the Zanesville fans have safe travels to Portsmouth and back home. The weather should be fine for the trip.

[OZZIEOHIO]

I dont know, but the suns shinning we may have to cancel this one.

[oldtrojan]

Well with those kind of temps my prediction is no snow, and a TROJAN Victory.
I know we have not played in awhile, but its time to cross over that hump and get some victories and momentum going into the tournament.

trojandave,oz,biggdogg,tobias,and the rest of TROJAN NATION its time to get everyone in the gym up for ad cheering these Trojan Warriors to victory .
Does anyone know if 99.3 WNXT is going to webcast this game?

GO TROJANS!!!

[ZvilleBlueDevil]
