Re: Valley 7 - 60 Waverly 2022

Valley moving to the SOC I is not the answer. While it may always be hard for Valley to win the SOC II the schedule they play will benefit them in the playoffs. The playoffs will need to be the focus most years. Marion local has been in the MAC 47 seasons. They have won 8 MAC conference titles but ...

Re: Valley 7 - 60 Waverly 2022

I feel like this might be a knee jerk reaction by parents who love their kids and don't want to see them have to struggle and that's completely understandable. But Valleys numbers in this year, by all accounts is a lower number than usual for enrollment don't even put them within 20 kids of the clos...

Re: Valley 7 - 60 Waverly 2022

Not all enrollment numbers are created equal..I can agree with that. Notre Dame is a prime example. Nearly 50% of their male population plays football. Certain schools based on the success of their programs over the years will draw a higher percentage of their student body playing sports. Sometimes ...

Re: Valley 7 - 60 Waverly 2022

So I pulled up some OHSAA's Competitive Balence Numbers for 2022. Here's some of the local numbers. Green 65 East 45 Symmes Valley 94 *Eastern 109 Notre Dame 48 South Gallia 75 *Manchester 108 *Western 93 (I put a * next to those schools as they have larger numbers than the usual SOC1 Schools but al...

Re: Valley 7 - 60 Waverly 2022

I'm sorry for Valleys struggles for the parents who watch their kids go out there and compete night in and night out only to be judged by a bunch of anonymous keyboard warriors in this forum. I've been there in other sports and it's not a fun spot to be in. No into Valley rejoining the SOC1... IF......

Re: 2022 Junior High Scores and Standings

Wonder how they’d do at the school they are all originally from!? I wonder if these other ovc teams could get a win if they spent less time whining about Ironton & more time working on getting better? Facts! They love complaining! It goes from transfers to now where you were conceived i guess! ...

Re: Green 65 - 52 Southern

Amen... maybe it's a combination of opening they best field in southern Ohio and having a hungry team. But the games at Green and the atmosphere this year have been amazing. Props to Green. Not only the product on the field. But when you go to a Green game this year at that stadium, football fan or ...

Re: Week 5: Green (4-0) @ Ashland Fairview (1-3)

Fairview can surprise you, but I think Green is still going to go 5-0. Green doesn't even try to hide the fact that they are going to run it, run it and run it some more with athletes like Brannigan and Lodwick. If you watched the game last week Southerns QB was an amazing passer, possibly the best ...

Re: 2022 Junior High Scores and Standings

The "Early Redshirt" at this point is what it is. So many schools are doing it with the "Pre K" and "Pre 1st" or whatever they want to call it. Then take into account some of these kids still get held back through the normal progression for academic reasons. I know of o...

Re: 2022 SOC1 Thread, scores, standings and schedules... post all year.

No argument that it's Notre Dames to lose for the foreseeable future or until the next batch of recruits come in 😉 Never count Symmes Valley out though. They have a HOF Coach and are experts at not showing what talent they have until it's time to. What might surprise you is that prior to this year i...

Re: 2022 SOC1 Thread, scores, standings and schedules... post all year.

My not so educated opinion. 1. Notre Dame 2. Clay 3. Symmes Valley 4. Green 5. Western 6. New Boston 7. East 8. St Joe (if they have a team) Not too far off from my guess back in March. Would just need to flip Western and New Boston. Was pretty confident in the top 4 positions although some were ma...

Re: 2022 SOC1 Thread, scores, standings and schedules... post all year.

Wednesday Green 17 New Boston 3 New Boston had every break go against them. Thursday New Boston 10 Green 11 12 INNINGS!! Probably the most exciting game of the season. I believe the game was tied at 5 or 6 going into extras. Multiple lead changes, big defensive stops, 2 out RBI hits to stay alive. E...

Re: SOSA 10 Softball Players to Watch This Spring

Popularity contest. How about SOSA writes about the kids who prove themselves to be ones to watch on the field… 100% SOSA was great the first year or so... then I'm not sure if they started getting sponsorships from certain areas so they felt a need to cover those sponsors schools more? They hit th...

Pretty Accurate I'd say.
Burg is Burg
West has the best pitcher in the conference
Websters working really hard
