Gonna be hard for the Jeeps to come out with a win @ Burg. Tough place to play. Should be a great game.

I know Valley got beat but that dunk! Feel sorry for the Webster kid. I didn't know Vice had it in him. That was dunk of the year worthy for SOC.

I believe the youngins from Valley can keep it close in the first half. If Copley is on, game will be closer than expected. Foul trouble on the Indians could also be an issue as they don't like to use their bench. Not sure I understand the lack of subbing kids into the game. Valley can go 8 deep wit...

This should be a fun game. I personally want to see the Kayser vs Roberts matchup. I love Kaysers game. I personally think he's the best player on this Falcon's team and the best player in the County as well. Should be a great game to watch.

I’ll be honest southern Ohio to me means scioto and Lawrence county. Probably should clarify my territory but my top players I’ve seen Schreck from Ironton Lovely South Point Montgomery Minford Roberts Webster I think Roberts has the best upside. The two guards for western are pretty dangerous too....

Piketon @ Valley

In the football thread, we kept scores and records of Jr. High teams and thought we could do it with basketball as well. Valley 7th is 1-1 with a win over Waverly and a loss to Notre Dame. Valley 8th is 2-0 with wins over Waverly and Notre Dame. I didn't make it to either game, so I'm unsure of scor...

Valley is at Symmes Valley tonight.

Valley scrimmaged South Point. I believe SP won all 5 quarters. SP looked very good. The Lovely kid is legit. He was fun to watch. Valley is young and looked overwhelmed when facing any kind of pressure. They will get better throughout the year as they learn to adjust to the speed of the game. Cople...

Heard that Valley scrimmaged New Hope Christian Academy from one of the players parents. Indians won all 4 quarters. They said it looks like they will be willing to go 7 deep this year with 2 seniors, 2 juniors, and 3 sophomores. Said the player that really stood out besides Copley was Jalen Bender....

SOC 3 is a toss up between Webster and Minford. I personally think Webster will come out on top. Burg will be good but are still a year or 2 out from winning the league. I just think Minford and Webster for the next 2 years will battle for the top spot. Valley will be young but have Copley to lead t...

Great job by Powell coming in to finish the game. First inning he came in was kinda shaky but he ended up settling down got the job done. He's going to be a heck of a player as he is only a freshman. Also, great team win. The bats were out toward the middle of the game. Great job boys. Keep it going.

Thoughts on the Valley game: First, the sloppiest game I've seen them play. You will have that from time to time. Just hate that it was during the post season. Not sure they were mentally ready to play basketball. They would've lost to anyone last night. Only made 2 3's. Still a lot of shooting cont...

Congrats to Jace! I've known him for quite a long time and it has been fun watching him grow into the player he has become. Keep working hard.

On a positive note for the Valley Indians, Colt Buckle is a heck of a player. Best player hands down on that team. His toughness is unbelievable. Attacks the basket with an aggressive mindset instead of settling for bad shots and is the best rebounding guard I've seen in a while. Coach needs to make...

SOC Jr High Tournaments: Below are the tournament seeds 8th Grade 1. Valley, 2. Burg, 3. West, 4. Northwest, 5. Webster, 6. Oak HIll, 7. Minford This should be Valley's tournament to lose. Too much athleticism and length. However, on an off day, I could see Burg or even West pulling off an upset. 7t...

With the 2nd half of the season beginning this evening, what is everyone's records? Valley 8th is 8-0. It will be a tough ask of them to finish undefeated due to injuries, but I think they can do it. One of there main players is out for the season with a torn ACL and 2 other players that have starte...

I know Webster got the win vs Jackson Saturday, but both teams coming off tough SOC losses this past Friday. One of these teams will walk away with 2 conferences losses. Should be a good game. Hopefully the Indians can pull out a victory!
