Waverly looked good today as did Amanda and Adena. Amanda, couple of nice bigs. Good point guard. Well coached. Two kids wearing knee braces so not ure about their depth. Should compete well in division three. Adena really impressed me. Would struggle in a bigger league but I think will have a shot at winning SVC. I know it is Zane Trace's to lose but Adena has height to match them and the fout kid is pretty good. Waverly going 11 deep is going to cause teams fits. The defensive pressure is intense!
... if a team doesn't have guard play to take care of the ball vs Waverly the Tigers will eat them up on the perimeter - we saw that last year at the Convo in the Waverly win over Sheridan ... I just looked at the napkin stats from that 71-60 win ... the Tigers turned Sheridan over 12 times in the 2nd half ... outscoring SHS 50-23 in the last 2 quarters ... that was with Remington in foul trouble the first half ... I'm curious as to where the perimeter scoring will come from for the Tigers with Howell gone due to graduation ? ... but Coach Robertson will get the roles figured out I'm sure - having almost his entire TEAM back from last years Convo TEAM ... good stuff !
Robertson can light it up from the perimeter and mid range

I mean Howell was nails...Robertson is a freshman. He’s going to have some freshman moments but I’ve watched this kid some every year since he was a 3rd grader. He’s hard to handle if you’ve never seen him play. He’ll have to make adjustments, but he always has.

Waverly will be a fun team to watch...even if they aren’t hitting shots.

... 12/1 @ Piketon ... Waverly vs Athens - I'm looking forward to seeing the young freshman - sounds like he is one of many freshmen Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line who will make an impact THIS season, determining the success of their respective teams in league and post season play ... the rundowns of the freshmen on your thread I92 make it sound like it will be great to watch these youngsters develop and do their thing for the next 4 years - makes me smile ! makes me want to continue traveling the Southeast District for years to come for sure ...

The Holiday Classic Has the potential to be a dandy again this year. Waverly & Eastern facing each other in the semi should be a war. Piketon is looking to be very good and Coach Fitch has the Western Indians back on track.
Hope you can make it back again this year, pfloyd.

With 11 kids, all who can play and all athletic this team reminds me of the Arkansas teams of the 90’s and 40 minutes of hell. This will be the high school version of 32 minutes!

Thanks Uk! I Should be able to make this one. I know Waverly has a nice back court. Gonna be fun to see how our youngsters match up. It’ll be a good test for them early in the season. Also looking forward to seeing the renovations to the gym in person!!

If Travis doesn’t start his kid out of the gate he is nuts

By far best kid on the floor for the Tigers

Kid is amazing!

Like ukfanatic said, Travis will rotate 10-11 guys in and out frequently with high intense pressure. Really doesn’t matter who the starting five is with the exception of positions.
