Portsmouth Trojans 2008?

OZZIEOHIO · Post by **OZZIEOHIO** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 5:34 pm

Anyone know the schedule for next year? I know we have South Point in week 1, but thats all I know?

The conference schedule will not change until 09. So the schedule will stay as is other than South Point replacing the Peake.

I could be wrong on this, but I do believe that Portsmouth DOES NOT play Logan and Zanesville next year. We do pick up Marietta as a new opponent, and play Warren again, as well all the South Division teams. That leaves one open date on the schedule, with Athens leaving. Athens was supposed to play Portsmouth in 2008.

I hope we can fill the open date with a decent team, but I wish the SEOAL adminstrators would let us fill the date with another league team. Makes sense to me, and one less phone call to make.

GO TROJANS!!!

dave -

Some league teams have added other league teams. Logan replaced Athens w/ Gallia Academy in week 4.

I think one problem would be that only one school has a bye each week, GAHS must have moved their week 4 league game to week 3.

we do have logan and zanesville next year. we don't have them on the schedule for 09.

trojanofthepast, do you have the sched for next year? I was told we didnt play Logan, and Zanesville also. I had heard the other day that we did, and im not sure what there doing about replacing athens.

i don't have a schedule yet, but i was told we don't play marietta until 09 and that in 09 we play 7 games including our own on field turf and with all the speed and talent in the freshmen class that will be juniors then that really works in our favor. I am fairly sure we play both logan and zanesville next year and replace both of them on the schedule in 09 . i know one of those replacement will be marietta.

Then was athens not on the sched for next year?

trojanofthepast · Post by **trojanofthepast** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 8:34 pm

no, they were scheduled for 09 i think

Logan is NOT on the Portsmouth schedule for '08. The Chiefs lose Jackson and Gallia as league games and get Jackson and Chillicothe instead.

Trojans will be competitive. It's hard to win championships with sophomores, but I think that the Trojans will give everyone a run for their money.

Best of luck!

thanks for the info LL. Do you by chance have the league schedule for next year. Were trying to find out our league schedule for next year. We will be very young next year and may take some lumps but gain needed experience for these yourg sophs next year.

I was thinking Dave was right, we dont have Zanesvile or Logan next year, and will have Marrietta,and have to replace Athens who should have been back on the schedule in 08.

Look for the Trojans to go .500 next year at best

TrojanXplosion · Post by **TrojanXplosion** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 1:50 pm

LOL...The Trojans will be better than .500.....it's way to early to make predictions but, Portsmouth does have some good talent coming back and I see them going around 7-3 or 8-2.

Good Falcon. Name the 7 or 8 wins ??

we wont lose to Logan :lol:

we will be very young, so next season could go either way, 6 and 4 is realistic,and do think 5 and 5 is possible.

but look out when this team is juniors and seniors.

Alex Coakley is a QB and not a WR. Trey Underwood will play inside linebacker and Tim Mcgahan will not start on the DL. But alot of your positons look pretty close. You will also see alot of John Royster next year a CB and WR/RB.

2nd and 3rd Team this year at each positon and their grade next yr:

QB's- Josh Myers(SO), Alex Coakley(SO)
RB's- Chase Southern(SR),Jalen Kennedy(JR),David Mallory(SR),John Royster(SO),Angelo Jackson(SO) coming back from injury and didn't play this year because of it
WR's- Storm Bratchett(SR),Andrew Bendolph(SO),Ryan Jordan(SR),Collin Staker(SO),Kyle Simpson(SO),London Malone(JR),NicK Nelson(SR)
TE's- Nate Cadogan(SR),Adam Brey(SO)
OL- Brennan Howard(SO), Kasey Sanders (SO)Clay Lewis (SO) if grades are good

We have alot of youth next year, but if they work hard in the weight room they could be solid next year. This FR group coming up knows how to win if they just get stronger. They have never been beaten as a group, they were undefeated as 7th,8th, and 9th graders. They know how to win together. And with some of the experienced players coming back they could surprise alot of people.

What about Fo Johnson and White back at WR ???
