I didn't understand why people thought VC was a better matchup for eastmoor than fu, but thought maybe I was wrong. Great season Vc!
Re: 3/18 Vinton County vs Eastmoor Academy (2017 Elite 8)
Eastmoor is a very good team. Good run for Vinton County.
Re: 3/18 Vinton County vs Eastmoor Academy (2017 Elite 8)
Eastmoor has a great team. And we did match up better than FU did Falcon. You guys had a 6'5 and we had 6'8 and 6'5 to sub in. And we will have he same next year. Proud of what the Vikings accomplished this year. Now we have to wait 9 more months for the season to begin again!! Congrats to Eastmoor and good luck the rest of the way!!

Eastmoor vs Last Years John Glenn team would have been interesting.
As an outsider I thought neither FU nor VC matched up well. Eastmoor --- They were the real deal.
Looking back you wish after Desales jumped into the bottom half of the District (South went on first and went into top half). that Eastmoor would have been swayed to go into the district which Bloom Carroll ended up winning. But they knew they could beat Desales and South and the reward was playing in the Convo vs playing at Kettering vs Dayton Dunbar.
I truly wish the SE would go to that system. It keeps coaches from colluding pre draw and orchestrating the path to the District or Regionals. The NCAA system is fair but only if the teams are seeded correctly. If a coach felt he was seeded unfairly he could choose to go on the board perhaps against the team who organized the collusion.

Neither of VC big men are even close to FU's let's get that straight right now. However I do think VC has some elite guards, so I thought they may be able to hang a little more than they did.
Re: 3/18 Vinton County vs Eastmoor Academy (2017 Elite 8)
Yeah nobody is touching trotwood. They mashed Dunbar today.
And yes neither fu or vc matched up well with eastmoor. Agree completely. But to say vc matched up better didn't make any sense. Cause they have 2 bigs?? It's not like they throw it inside every trip or try to drive the ball the entire time. The one big from vc was a total mismatch in favor of eastmoor because he's not athletic enough. Fu had that game at 5 points after 3 quarters.
BUT I'm not trying to make this a negative about VC because I think they're a great team and made school history.
Eastmoor is a really really good team who doesn't rush things and just is methodical.

Vinton County played so hard and tried everything possible. They were just over matched in this game. The size was too much. Eastmoor shot well and was very athletic, but even when they missed they just went and got it for another shot.
It has been a pleasure to watch these vikings. I wish them the best going forward. The coaches, players and fans did it all with class.
Go TVC.

To Portsmouth Trojan followers, if I remember right back in 2015 I witnessed the Trojans almost beating Eastmor. I think 3-4 point loss for the Trojans, Eastmoor if I remember right Had same kind of lineup with a smothering D and great athletes. Portsmouth squad just came up short so yes there is southeastern teams that can play with the Eastmoors of Columbus. congrats to the Vikings on great year.

Agreed. FU nod has to go to the bigs it's not close. And VC nod goes to the guards it's not close.Bud07 wrote:Neither of VC big men are even close to FU's let's get that straight right now.

Too big too athletic.
I felt Bartoe played a bit timid but that could probabalt be credited to EAs defense... and WOW what a defensive team. Yates played his heart out today. Great season VC.
If EA doesn't win it all this year I can almost bet they will be back next year. All juniors.

We lost 49 to 45 , had the lead going into the 4th qtr and it was a 4 to 6 point game to the end ,their quickness made the difference.
Re: Eastmoor Academy 69 Vinton County 48 (2017 Elite 8)

FU had the benefit of playing with a familiar shooting background with the new team in the Convo. I'd take VC in 8 of 10 against FU.
