Re: Week 3 Portsmouth @ Wheelersburg

VERY PROUD OF THE TROJANS FOR SHOWING A LOT OF HEART LAST NIGHT!!.......Even though we lost, this game was a lot easier to swallow than the game vs. West.......our Trojans battled back from a 2 TD deficit to even the score.......we did hurt ourselves with penalties in the red zone on a couple of po...

Re: Week 3 Portsmouth @ Wheelersburg

Congrats to the Burg on the win. The team need to thank their lucky stars they had Brandon Schankweiler on their side tonight since he scored all 5 of the Pirate TD's.

Re: Week 2 Portsmouth (1-0) at West (1-0)

I agree about Roger Gray. Thank god he had some help in the booth tonight. I don't know who the guy was helping him, but without him I would have had no idea what was going on. As for the Trojans, I think it all went downhill after stopping West on the first drive and making a nice return on the pu...

I do not know how far back an all time team is to be but,,the 1953 Trojans would have to be right up there with any team mentioned...I know, it was a long time ago but for some of us we remember these teams of the past...the 53 PHS team would give any team all they could handle.... wipalawalt,,,an o...

Re: What determines if a high school coach is a great coach?

IMO, even more important than league or tournament titles when discussing greatness is CONSISTENCY over time. Anyone can run into a great class and stay out of their way as they achieve. Some coaches (I wont name names) have made a career out of going where the talent is and when the talent pool dr...
