I guarantee I will never post on here again if Crooksville defeats Jackson.

Shouldn't this thread be Jackson Vs Circleville?

[Ironman92]

Only if you want it to be correct.

It's Jackson vs Circleville

Jackson is playing much better after just knocking off Unioto and Vinton County.

Circleville is coached by Jackson alum Eric Evans...who played for the Ironmen in 1999-2001

I think Chapman and company wins this one hands down. Would like to see the Author boy start this game with strength and speed. I think Ray comes out shooting the 3 and increases the lead to allow good passes and the team to stay in cruise control mode.
McNelly has really moved his game to a higher level. He has dominated the floor with his speed and jumping ability. Limit the turnovers and IMO Jackson wins this one.
Quinn has a natural ability to set the screen and needs to apply it early. This will limit the pressure on Ray for the rest of the game.
Play hard, have fun...

THE RED WILL WIN.....LOL

[Ironman92]

Game is at Southeastern.

The boys are playing much better. Quinn screening can get Ray a quick 3 point attempt...but IMO he's better when McNelly or Chapman can penetrate the middle and draw a crowd of defenders and then kick it out to Ray....he's automatic on those shots. McNelly driving inside has really helped our offense.

Quinn and Arthur both give Jackson some very good qualities. Quinn has a good base post move that is pretty hard to defend and he uses his size for good screens and even shielding a defender on one of our players driving. Klay just flat out keeps the ball alive. Jackson is not a great rebounding team but Klay always seems to get a hand on the ball and keep us with a better chance of getting a loose ball. He also is very quick on defending the post players and his quick jumping ability messes up a lot of shots. IMO Coach has done a good job of seeing which player is best fitted for each opponent and adjusting as the game goes.

I will say when we have Chapman, Ray, McNelly, Arthur and Eisnaugle in at the same time we are extremely quick and athletic.....especially for a Jackson team.

[Ironman92]

I assume he is still there. I THINK this is his 2nd full season....and I believe his brother is one of his assistants.

[Ironman92]

Jackson down 32-20 at the half. Not sounding good at all. In fact it sounds similar to last week's game versus Logan.....Jackson coming off a big win does not respond the next game like they want to.

Still 16 minutes to get it going.

[Ironman92]

Jackson was down 16 but cut it down to 7 at 42-35

[Ironman92]

Jackson down 13 points with 2:00 remaining

Circleville was definately the better team tonight!


Congrats to Circleville and good luck agaisnt Chillicothe.

Wow, very shocking, especially with how well Jackson played in 2 of their games last week.

Circleville is a team full of athletes, but have struggled to get wins at all recently, but that's definitely a good win for their program.

[Ironman92]

They've had trouble playing 2 very good games back-to-back.

Gotta give Circleville credit.
