Glenwood will have to play there best game of the year to beat this Columbus Grove team, this Grove team has been tested by some of the very best in northwest Ohio in the tournaments

Hawks find a way to gut it out, Hiland 57-50,this Trimble team is a very good team and look out for them next season everybody is back

Mark Schlabach has been coaching Hiland now in his 15 season with a coaching record of 352-70, 10 district championship,5 regionals championships,1 state runner-up,2 state championship

We use to go to the canton regionals, it sure a heck of a lot closer for us less than an hour drive,and the canton fieldhouse was a great place to watch games and not bad seat in the house, for some reason they keep changing regionals on the east District,I think this is now fifth year now to go to ...

This is not the most talented team Hiland has had,over the last four years playing at regionals, after we had two of our starters go down with nee injury's before the season started, but this team has to have the biggest heart of any Hiland team I have ever seen to knockoff a very very good Malvern ...

After there first three games, when they gave up 67,57,70 points,there defense has really turn it around

Tusky Valley plays a very nasty 1-2-2 zone press that gives alot of teams trouble

Those teams out in western ohio are just so battle tested,I just can't see Glenwood or Federal Hocking, playing with them,Ottoville,Antwerp,Convoy crestview, Columbus Grove,Kalida,Botkins,Fort Loramie, those first five teams are all in the same regional,that will be a meat grinder of a regional

I think it might come down to Malvern and Shenandoah for the East, the Malvern people are saying this is the team they have been waiting for,three other teams with a decent chance to come out of the east, Strasburg, Caldwell, Hiland,the Tigers gave Malvern one of there two losses and it was even at ...

The seeding process this season is going to be very critical this season, more than ever,top seeds get home court advantage all the way,till the regional semis,at least that's way it looks in the east district

Doesn't look like a very strong field,this season

I'd say the Cadet's by 13 to 15 point range,Fort Frye defense is very good in the few games I've seen them play. Is this game to be placed this Thursday January 21,or is it this coming weekend

Yea just one team comes out, I don't there's one dominant team in this year's field, I've seen Malvern play on live stream, there's games where they look very beatable,then there's nights,that no one will touch them in the east district,I can't figure them out,they got real good size,there two bigs ...

D-4 East District Records as of 1/20, just putting them in order by there total wins 11-2. Malvern 10-1. Shenandoah 10-4. Strasburg 8-5. Caldwell 8-6. Hiland 7-4. Bishop Rosecrans 6-2. Monroe Central 6-2. River 5-2. Steubenville Cath 5-5. Tusky Cent.Cath 3-6. Shadyside 3-10 Conotton Valley 3-12 Toro...

For what it's worth,, Garaway is 4-6, Sandy Valley 5-5,Newcomers town 0-8, I only kept the IVC league teams scores this season too many cancelled games to keep track of, with all the covid going on

The Cadet's are are a easy No.1 seed as of now

I would flip Tusky Valley and Ridgewood around at this time, since TV beat Ridgewood at TV 59-49,the rematch is coming up later this month at Ridgewood

Seems like sense the Tigers, beat a very good Malvern team at Malvern, Strasburg seems to be heading in the wrong direction, losing to Claymont and then just barely beating a not very good Kidron Christian team,the Cadets will be best team the Tigers have played so far

What will happen when tournaments start,will there be alot of forfiets,if covid-19 hits your basketball team , there's no guarantee with the higher seeded teams making it very far, could be alot of teams with losing records advanceing, what's everyone thoughts about this year's tournaments

I know this has nothing to do with the West M.game, but love to see Fort Frye take on the this New Boston Glenwood team, I'm sure that would be quite a trip for either team to make to play one another, I'm not sure where New Boston is located at in Ohio
