Oak Hill 44
Northwest 32 a final

... If I had to describe Coach McKinniss' Oaks the words patient, disciplined come to mind ... 8 men in the rotation, 4 of 5 starters are seniors so they have been there, seen that and know what the expectations are from the sideline/court side ... after watching the Oaks I would add that there are no what I would call "super stars" ... no flash, but definitely TEAM - players who know their roles/play within those roles ... a deliberate motion offense, where the goal is getting shots at the rim ... the Oaks do a nice job of controlling the tempo of the game ... solid man to man at the defensive end ... one of the "little things" that I noticed - and it's just a thing that I have when I watch teams - I look for fundamentals - the Oaks KNOW how to throw a "chest pass" , none of the "pushing the ball to the other player" with one hand behind the ball, but true 2 handed chest passes ... winning napkin stats in the game for OHHS - turned the Mohawks over 18 times to only 7 on their own ball ... the Oaks scored 36 points at the rim/in the paint on the night vs NHS converting 7 fgs down low in the paint at their end of the court ... the Oaks converted 5 of the 18 turnovers for the Mohawks into points in transition ... in the end, the Oaks controlled the tempo, the pace of the game, held Northwest to 2 fgs in the 4th quarter ... discipline, patience, play your roles ... Oak Hill 44 Northwest 32 a final ...

Quarter Breaks

Oak Hill ... 11 ... 23 ... 33 ... 44
Northwest 06 ... 14 ... 27 ... 32

... Oak Hill jumped out quickly in the opening frame, taking the lead and never looking back as 5-10 sr. Andy Meldick hit a midrange jumper for 2pts, 6-2 freshman Colben Beucler scored in transition 2pts, Ethan O'Connor followed with a strip and score 2pts ... jr. Will Morgan & 6-3 sr. Joseph Anteby each took the ball to the hole for 2pts ...for the Mohawks, 6-4 sr. Brenden Vice had the only fgs in the qtr. getting NHS on the board with a putback bucket 2pts and a shot down low in the paint for 2, 6-2 big man in the middle Aiden Armbrister added 2/2 from the FT line to finish the Mohawk scoring in the first ... Oak Hill 11 Northwest 6 after one ... Northwest looked to attack the paint with Armbrister in the 2nd, the sr. post player scored off the glass in the paint for 2pt & 1 to go with 2 pts on the block (5pts in the period) ... between the Armbrister scores in the paint, 5-10 jr Ethan Crabtree drained a deep triple for the Mohawks ... Oak Hill followed suit by finding its own big man in the middle - 6-3 sr. Joseph Anteby for 2 fgs down low (4pts), Morgan added a stickback 2pts and 6-3 sr. swing forward Ethan O'Connor scored 4 pts ( 2/2 from the line, and a coast to coast score in transition) ... Oak Hill 23 Northwest 14 at the half ... through 2 quarters the big difference was shots on goal - the Mohawks had turned the ball over 9 times in the opening half vs 1 for the Oaks ... Northwest had taken 5 three pointers with nothing to show on the scoreboard ... the Oaks were 0/3 from downtown - not part of the offensive game plan for OHHS ... in the 3rd NHS Brenden Vice found the bottom of the net from deep, scoring the Mohawks first 8 pts of the quarter - 2pts in the paint, followed up by back to back 3 balls , Armbrister added a bucket at the rim 2pts with a miss on the "and 1" attempt ... Jake Brown drilled a 3 from the top of the key to give NHS their best scoring quarter - 13 pts - that chipped into the OHHS half time lead ... the Oaks continued to run their offense, look and find cutters down the lane ... O'Connor took a pass, drove the lane for 2 pts/ Anteby 2 buckets on the blocks (4pts) ... Meldick hit his 2nd 12 footer of the night ... players "playing/staying" in their roles for OHHS ... O'Connor followed the Meldick jumper by scoring in transition off of a Mohawk turnover (6 in the 3rd period) ... the Oaks turned the ball over 3 times in the period, when you work the ball to get shots at the rim with 30-40 second possessions, it hurts turning the ball over ... in this case the Mohawks clawed back to within 6 pts by the end of 3 ... Oak Hill 33 Northwest 27 after three ... the 4th quarter was textbook basketball by the Oaks ... they took care of the ball (2 turnovers while forcing 4 on the NHS side) ... defensively held the Mohawks to 2 fgs with the first not coming until 3:49 remained on the clock - a bucket in the paint by Armbrister, the final fg for NHS was a 3 pointer by Vice with 1:08 to play ... the Oaks controlled the pace of play, got the shots they wanted , by the role players they wanted shooting the shots - all of them in the paint or at the rim - Ethan O'Connor with 2 straight shots at the rim 4pts, a Meldick transition 2pts, an O'Connor drive and finish 2pts followed by the freshman - Colben Beucler with a drive from the foul line to the rim - 2pts ... game, set, staying in SOCII hunt ... Oak Hill 44 Northwest 32 a final ...

I will add that Oak Hill does a good job of taking what the defense gives them. Typically, O'Conner, Meldick, Beucler, Morgan and Fowble each have a three or multiple threes in the game. Northwest's style of D allowed the Oaks drives to the basket with little helpside defense to get tough but makeable shots at the rim.

symmes valley is the only undefeated team left they beat oak hill and western

... when I did my writeup last night of the Oak Hill win over Northwest ... I used SOCII standings information from a website that had the league records posted incorrectly - they have Symmes Valley with a 1-1 record (should be 2-0), and had Oak Hill with a 2-0 record headed into last nights game (should have been 1-1) , Northwest was listed as undefeated at 2-0 as well (this was correct they were 2-0 before playing OHHS last night) ... my opening 2-3 sentences spoke of OHHS entering at 2-0, NW entering at 2-0 ... playing where the winner would sit undefeated at the top of the SOCII ... well that's "where pfloyd was wrong" ... the Oaks with their 44-32 W last night made it a 3 way tie for 2nd place in the SOCII BEHIND the now ONLY undefeated SOCII team the Symmes Valley Vikings of Coach Carpenter ... my apologies to SV ... the current SOCII standings SHOULD look like this:

Symmes Valley ... 2-0
Oak Hill ........... 2-1
Eastern Pike ..... 2-1
Northwest .......2-1
Western .........0-2
South Gallia .... 0-3

... again my apologies to the Vikings coaching staff, players, faithful ... I knew finding the information I was looking for all in one place was too easy ... If I'm going to post/do write-ups I should only post after my own research - where pfloyd was wrong ...

Even though I don’t have anything to do with the upkeep of our website itself, I’ll acknowledge it was our website. I think that’s the only mistake on the boys side, but it was identified by someone else and should have been fixed. It will be this evening at the very least…

But, it’s also less than 30% of the way into the league season and for pfloyd to have to issue an apology because folks fly off the handle at any mistake is wild.

He won’t say it, but if it wasn’t for pfloyd’s efforts, there would be 3-4 basketball posts a week and maybe less if Webster didn’t play that week.
