Re: 2024 OHSAA State Boys Basketball Attendance...End Of The Four Class Era

I went to the boys state tournament for 35 straight years until 2015, and now enjoy watching the semifinals and finals on Spectrum. I did enjoy going to my 1st girls state tournament with Portsmouth making the Final 4 this year. UD Arena is a really nice facility. I just wonder how the logistics of ...

Re: Seven Divisions Won't Change This Problem

During one of the girls state tournament games, an OHSAA official was interviewed about the state of the OHSAA. She revealed that not too long ago that the OHSAA did not have much of a reserve fund, but now that fund is around 8 million. Can't help but think the OHSAA will monetarily benefit from go...

Re: Portsmouth lady trojans move on to final four!

We have been blessed as Trojan fans to see quite a few of our boys and girls basketball teams play in the Final 4. For me, today will be the 7th basketball Final 4 that I have watched in person with a Portsmouth team playing. 1978, 1980, 1988, 1990, 2011, 2012 (all boys), and now 2024 with the Lady ...

Re: D II Regionals @ the Convo

Saw Hartley play North Adams at Shawnee State in December, and the Hawks edged the Green Devils 56-55, a game in which NA led most of the way but struggled vs. BH's press in the 4th quarter. They have some good size, and are very athletic, but they didn't shoot the ball all that well.....but that wa...

Re: Portsmouth lady trojans move on to final four!

What is particularly sweet about making the Final 4 is that not too long ago the Portsmouth Lady Trojans program was mired near or at the bottom of the OVC, with many games not being competitive. In fact it had been nearly 40 years since a district championship. Now Coaches Amy and Mike Hughes have ...

Mc1196: The Fairland Lady Dragons made the Final 4 in 2014, 2015, 2023, and now 2024. They haven't won the state title as of yet. The Fairland boys made the Final 4 in 1961 and 2017, and both teams lost in the semifinals. My point above is that Portsmouth, Eastern Meigs, and Oak Hill are the only 3 ...

Re: Portsmouth Trojans 2023-24

Portsmouth ends this season with an all time record of 1,532--854. Coach Lisath's 17 wins in his 1st year at PHS coach is the 3rd highest total for a 1st year Trojan HC. Only Joe Suboticki (27-1 in 1988), and Tom Smith (20-4 in 1982) had more.
