Peebles 7th grade knocked off unbeaten Whiteoak...so Peebles definitely has a good 7th grade squad

Have heard that Winters is one of the top 7th grade athletes around
Heard he is on his way to burg also.BigBlueNation wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2018 2:42 pm Watched West 7th grade lastnight. In warm ups watched Sanderlin go up and grab the rim fairly easy, I would say with his work ethic he will be dunking pretty soon. Probably this summer.
Now that's interesting. Any West or Burg people hear this one?*Buckeye_storm wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2018 9:45 amHeard he is on his way to burg also.BigBlueNation wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2018 2:42 pm Watched West 7th grade lastnight.

Yep, we are known for our metal joining skills here in The Burg. Lol I think you mean Brazen.Oak wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2018 3:01 pm People act like 13 year old kids are NBA free agents.
His father has said to numerous people that he isn't going anywhere. He has other siblings that would have to change too. The class he is in is really good at all 3 sports and he is established there. It would be stupid to change now.
But everyone knows Wheelersburg recruits. They are getting very brazing at it.
I have to agree with this. These are kids. Leave them alone.Oak wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2018 3:01 pm People act like 13 year old kids are NBA free agents.

the exact same thing was said about this years STATE CHAMPION senior class when west beat them 22-0 in 8th grade....... JH means nothing lolWestfan wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2018 11:57 pmI have to agree with this. These are kids.

According to his father they aren't going anywhere. Combination of Basketball, baseball, football this might be the best class at West since the mid 80s and there are several good classes behind them.
As far as Wheelersburg, with their increasing enrollment and the multiplier they will bump up to D4 or possibly D3 football for the foreseeable future after this year. Based on football this fall and basketball this winter the 7th grade class at Wheelersburg is very weak compared to past Wheelersburg classes.
Dedication and hard work mean alot. It is why players get better. But talent does factor in there and around 7th/8th you can see players with more ability than others. It's no different than Ohio State trying to recruit 5 star players. Sometimes a 3 star turns into a star, but most times his ceiling is lower. It's no different here.
West put 5 - 7th graders in the second half who hadn't played the first.Blitz wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2018 9:39 am Same can be said about this years football and basketball games. Remove ONE kid from west who is physically dominate and almost fully grown and they cant beat half of the SOC. He is being caught by everyone else. Burg 21-0 at half without him and 35-21 final with him in the second half. There is the proof
Very good post West fan. The one player mentioned above is not being caught by the others, actually l think the gap is getting bigger. He has a great work ethic as some of the other West 7th graders do also.Westfan wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2018 1:12 pm The score of the game was 14-0 @ halftime. 30 to 14 final. At halftime the coaches let the 5 players that played up all year play and put the other kids back to their normal positions. That was the difference
The kid you mention is very good. There are several very good players on that team. That's why they win in basketball and football. It's easy to stop 1 person, it's hard to stop and bunch. You making it sound like 1 player made all the tackles, did all the blocking, and scored all the points is rediculous. All the touchdowns that Holden scored this year, did "he" do it by himself or did the team around him put him in a position to do it? Good teams put their talent in a position to succeed by keeping the defense honest and getting their best players the ball where they can use their ability.
By the way this summer this team beat Wheelersburgs 8th grade at SSU and lost to South Webster and Logan 8th grade teams by 1 at Jackson. Did maturity do that too?
You do realize that isn’t fully accurate correct ? For starters they did not beat Wheelersburg 8th grade team . There was never a Wheelersburg 8th grade team that was made up of their actual players. There was 2-3 kids who were regular season players who played in the Shawnee league, 1 of which who didn’t even play until last couple weeks because of family vacations and AAU Ball. Majority of the other kids who played, don’t even play on their 8th grade team now. Now they did however beat the 7th grade team with a 8th grader playing for fun to help bc they didn’t have enough players . Other than that, I can assure you they didn’t beat a Burg team made up of key 8th grade players.Westfan wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2018 1:12 pm The score of the game was 14-0 @ halftime. 30 to 14 final.

So you’re telling me Sanderlin was never in the 8th grade class of 2022? Bc if you think he wasn’t then you’re the one who is sadly mistaken . He didn’t go to West all of his life ya know . I know you know that, just like the rest of us do. We also know the grade/class he was in before the year he moved to West . Don’t forget , 3 of the 8th grade boys are from other schools that include PORTSMOUTH, (where he came from), West, and Ironton. We know him. And that is not false information. Great kid, and a great athlete. But , That is 100% accurate . I think Sissel was in the class of 2022 too ? But that I could be mistaken. And yes that is the case for Valley as well. You may not know that, but that doesn’t mean it ain’t true . So for u to say it’s false is inaccurate. I know ppl on a personal level that has a child who was once in the class of 2022 at Valley , she and another family held them back. 2 I know for sure .Ohiosports22 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2018 5:56 pm I'd really like to know where some of you guys are getting this information. The West 7th grade group growing up were always really well coached along with a lot of hard work. Same case for valley. As for as saying some of the key players on West 7th should be in 8th grade you are sadly mistaken. The kid you are mentioning doesn't turn 14 until the end of June. How does that make you an eighth grader. The rest of the starters are all near that same age. Valley is no different. Talent and gifted abilities only get you do far and both teams have developed their talent really well, and success is the result.
