D3 East Sectional Final 8. Coshocton (11-12) vs 5. Fort Frye (16-7)

[EasternDspy]

Coshocton not you normal (8-15) team they beat Meadowbrook and upset 3. Martins Ferry tonight.

[VetteMan]

Wow! Does Coshocton have a lot of larger schools on there schedule during the year, or have they just suddenly caught fire at tournament time?

[EasternDspy]

They play a crazy schedule but they are super inconsistent they lost to Cambridge twice a team Fort Frye just beat.

At this stage of the season, when it's win or go home, no team can be overlooked. Coshocton I'm sure is not feeling any pressure at all, they're playing with house money. I have a feeling that Fort Frye will be ready though.

The game will be played in Beverly Friday at 7 PM.

Coshocton is a dangerous 8 seed, but I like Fort Frye on the home court on a Friday night.

[EasternDspy]

Fort has struggled in sectional finals lately. Can they make it to district for the Srs?I called the Coshocton upset vs Martins Ferry. They are good come on they beat Meadowbrook the same week they beat us 62-34 but that was along time ago. I wouldn’t call either team the favorite.

Last 2 years Fort has lost to Ridgewood and Union Local in sectional finals in Beverly. 3 years ago they lost to Coshocton @ Meadowbrook.

[EasternDspy]

Coshocton runs the Princeton and has a good guard in Gaven Williams. I don’t think Fort can afford to get behind.

[E High]

This will be really close. If Coshocton gets a lead late, they’ll be very dangerous.

Coshocton needs to find someone besides Williams to score, if not they don't win. We lost to FF becasue we missed 12 bunnies inside..taking nothing away from FF, they played well. I don't think it matters if FF gets behind, they like to shoot the 3 anyway and shoot it well...Redskins don't.

Executed well, the classic Fort Frye man to man defense works very well against the Princeton offense. I have seen teams try to run it against past Fort Frye teams and get nowhere with it. I'm hoping to hit town early enough to catch this one tonight. It sounds like it should be an outstanding game.

[Netcutter]

It's a crazy time of year for basketball but I expect Fort Frye to pull this one out and play another day.

[E High]

Right about Coshocton and Williams. Their issues are scoring. Will have to win in the low 40 s.

[EasternDspy]

I hear Coshocton likes to get ahead and run Princeton offense until they get a layup. Fort needs to keep the pace of this game up. How physical is Coshocton? Last tourney game not many fouls were called and Fort forced a ton of turnovers and got into transition.

[Hawks1112]

Coshocton coach played under Bob Vonkaenel from Dover,he runs the same offense as Dover does, keep the score in the high thirty's or low forty's and Coshocton probably wins,if Fort can push the tempo and get up and down the floor fast then Fort probably wins,of course if comes to league comparison then Coshocton has the big advantage
