Is Mathews playing for Burg this year? Remember playing as a Freshman on the JV squad. To good of an athlete to be sitting in the stands.

My "source" at the Burg says he didn't play last year because he doesn't like the coach and wanted to focus on football. Unless something changed on that front, I can't see him coming out.

That stinks. He would have really helped them out this year.

After a long football run it generally takes Burg a few extra weeks to get their basketball legs. Should be a good season as long as people perform like they are expected.

Wheelersburg Scrimmaged Western Pike on Monday night. I believe they took 4/6 quarters against the Indians. Every quarter was close except one where Burg jumped out to a 15-2 lead and ended up closing the quarter 17-6 or something like that. Burg played well for coming off of football and I thought Western handled there pressure D, and Holden well.

Anyone have any other thoughts that was at the scrimmage?

Impressed they got a scrimmage in. I doubt many attended the scrimmage. Sounds like you have a good assessment of it.

Sounds about right. Burg has plenty of talent and is better than Western. Western has had time for Fitch to work on his kids, so that explains why they handled pressure pretty well.

Wheelersburg is still the odds on favorite to win the SOC II as well as the D3 District title.

As far as the SOC-2 is concerned, better be aware of Waverly.

I would agree that Waverly has a real shot as well. Burg is the slight favorite with Holden, but Waverly could definitely win. After seeing Oak Hill last week, don't be surprised if Oak Hill beats both teams at least once.

I believe the Jeeps won the State with a few transfers, correct?

A few? There was one.

They also won 2 regional titles before that with zero transfers (one was the regional championship that Africentric forfeited so only one other state appearance, but you get the point.)

There was a foreign exchange student on the roster if perhaps you’re referencing him. He didn’t sniff the floor though.

Also, the guy posting that above you is a troll. Most likely a young kid trying to stir the pot.

May have a slow start again this year. Our football season lasts a little longer then everyone else’s. The Burg should win the soc, not many have an answer for Holden and if he’s double teamed someone else steps up. I looks for a deep tourney run again. Go pirates

What’s taking so long for Wheelersburg to play basketball? Football season has been over for 3 or 4 weeks

I heard that being asked over this past weekend at the Rio Grande games. Mayby someone from the Burg knows the answer as to why they haven't yet played?
