The #2 team in the East (Symmes Valley) also gave Notre Dame (#2 team in the West) one of their only two losses. Notre Dame and Clay are definitely the teams to watch to come out of this bracket. It have a tough time trying to figure out exactly how they seeded everyone after the top three teams. It definitely doesn't match with their records.

Valley only has 10 girls so to play games with weather below 40 and all the rain they was lucky to get in that many. Played mostly conference games

The HC works his butt off to get the games in. He puts in the time on the field so the ladies can do what they love to do!

Not odd at all in my opinion. If it's nice out you have to play. Field maintenance has a large part in playing as well... Too many schools around the area are borderline unplayable if a light sprinkle.

I think number of games played only played a small part. I think who you played was another part and how you played against other teams.
I think that's what hurt St. Joe. Yeah, they were 7-2 but 7-2 playing some pretty WEAK talent. They didn't have to go against the Clays and Notre Dames.
The West bracket is by far the more loaded bracket. I don't expect an upset with the 1. Clay or 2. Notre Dame. But, the 3 & 4 anything could happen.

I am not sure of what teams St. Joe played this year, but they will be in the SOC starting next year so their schedule will change. The problem with St. Joe is that many of the girls right now with a lot of talent end of going to Ironton to play when they get to HS. In baseball, this situation is switched. Their baseball is doing quite well and have several kids that played for Ironton just a year or two ago. We can look at anyone's schedule and see some WEAK teams on their schedule with the exception of a few clubs that play larger schools to prepare for tournament play. I think OHSAA should look at each clubs wins and rank them for tournament play like they do in football. South Webster comes to mind, because they have 2 wins but play in the brutal SOC II. They are better than many in the East and West bracket.

Aside from Burg and Oak Hill (last year) many of those SOC 2 schools Minford, North West, West have had weaker Jr High and Little League programs over the past few years. Usually getting beat regularly by SOC 1 schools.
If that holds up I expect Webster to turn it around quickly. Messer has done a great job with them already.

Definitely South Webster's program is getting better. Their record doesn't reflect that because of playing in the brutal SOC I. I doubt other than ND, Clay, and the hit or miss SV program, that any other SOC I team could play with Minford, Northwest, Oak Hill, Waverly or Wheelersburg. I would like to see the SOC I programs schedule a few of these teams so they can get better but they won't. Many team like to enhance their record by playing small schools that they know their program is lacking from the bottom up, and say we have a winning record when the teams you beat also haven't won many games. It doesn't help these programs when it comes time to play a quality team for the conference or in the tournament.
