Another great game was displayed tonight in Minford. Both the Falcons and the Pirates both defensively and offensively played toe to toe with each other making both schools fans sit on the edge of their seats. Wheelersburg broke into the scoring column in the top of the 5th inning (1-0), but the Lady Falcons answered with a run of their own in the bottom half of the inning to tie the score (1-1). However, the Pirates retook the lead (2-1) on a blast by Addi Collins after Minford defensively made a nice double play. I'm sure tomorrow night in Wheelersburg should be another great game to watch.

Sounds like a great game , Minford almost got them 1-2 years at Minford but struggled in the return trip to Burg . Wish I was off work to go see this game .

It was a high level softball game. Minford used every tool in their arsenal to keep it in check and executed it well. Looking forward to the game tonight.

Worked to keep it close but 6-3 it ended. Tough to beat the burg. And playing back to back nights tough on the under dog.

Backup now. Your not saying that Minford is the underdog. But I guess every team the Burg plays is the underdog then. Minford played if not even but better than the Pirates, just doesn't take away from the fact that Minford is the second best team that Wheelersburg has on their schedule. It was a great game between these two schools like in the 1st meeting. Maybe their might be a 3rd meeting on the horizon in the districts. It only takes one inning of play to turn the game around and that's what happened. It was a pretty good move by their scoreboard to stop working though when Minford took the lead and that has not been the first time to occur. Hats off to Wheelersburg and my Lady Falcons on a great game to watch.

You really think the scoreboard was purposely manipulated with when Minford took the lead...what does that have to do with anything? Did it miraculously come back on when Burg took the lead?

Gee whiz. You really can't be serious about the scoreboard.

Minford was the underdog. They just lost the previous game to burg, automatically that puts them as the underdog going into the next game at burg. Guess what, they will be the underdog next game if they meet up in playoffs. I hope they do. Sounds like it will be a great game again.

Now that’s funny what does a scoreboard malfunction have anything to do with a softball game? Wheelersburg better call ahead if they play Minford again and ask that the scoreboard malfunction because if not they can’t play with Minford apparently. I love how it’s always some crazy reason as to why Wheelersburg has success. Minford got beat last night because Wheelersburg was the better team.

Wow, I can't believe someone would stoop to a level to blame the scoreboard for a swing in the game. Just another example of teaching today's generation to give excuses of why they aren't the reason for something to happen.

Minford was the underdog for sure, that does not take away that they are a good team, because they are … What does the scoreboard have to do with anything LOL

It was a good game between two good teams and there always is a winner and loser.

Obviously there was something about it that stood out to you other than it simply being funny. You wouldn’t bring it up if not. You stated in your post that this isn’t the first time this has happened. Your insinuation seems to be that Wheelersburg does this type of stuff in order to have success. People from Wheelersburg have to constantly hear fans from other schools constantly coming up with excuses or conspiracy theories as to why Wheelersburg has success or why Wheelersburg beat them. So whether you thought it was funny coincidence or not your post comes off as grasping at something to try to take away from a good win for Wheelersburg.

I think he was just a little emotional after losing a tough game , the equivalent of having a 16 point buck in your cross hairs and the gun jams or something to that effect. Minford has looked up at the Burg forever and you get that close to a huge win on their turf and the rug gets pulled out from under you , it hurts.

Everybody wants to beat the Burg but it’s really hard to do.
