Didn't the burg win the basketball co-soc championship with sw during 05? That would have been Tommy Kaskey's senior year. Carrington was a jurnior. Miller, Cowgill, and Salyers were sophomores, and Spradlin was a freshman. ??? They lost at the convo in the last minute, but I may be wrong.

tough loss, Pirates! Keep working. Find some answers.

We are proud of both Brigham and Drew in the SoCon!

Congrats, Oaks. Nice win and you played an excellent game.

Lamb is back and doing ok, I see. Good for him. Ironton needs him.

When Ben Bowman left for Virginia due to his family's relocating for employment, the Burg really lost an amazing basketball player--and so did the girls' team! Can you imagine if he had stayed, he would have played guard alongside Cam and Drew, and that would have been three DI players on the floor ...

Smith from Minford.

Burg:
Burleson (both of them)
Eaton (M)
Miller and Spradlin

All three play(ed) D-I after leaving Wheelersburg
Didn't see any of the other earlier ones.

I disliked the Times coverage, too. Very unnecessary. I also question why anyone posted a thread on the topic? What was the real motive for that, too?

As the parent of a DI basketball player, I don't think either record that you mention is really that outstanding to attract attention. So, go wherever. I think AAU is a better venue to really show the shooting power. Most college coaches never see many high school players b/c the AAU programs offer ...

I am proud of each and every one of our Pirates after that great game. Ironton also came out and played hard. The Burg's new kicker, Aaron White, was so calm and cool under pressure! WOW! WHAT A HERO Lang's leadership and strong decision making in the first two quarters to get the Pirates rolling, S...

cheat? recruit? Oh, the irony! Burg by 2 td's. I guess if you call getting buried before halftime cheating, then ok...????? Let's go Burg. Let's make it an opening game tradition! BEAT IRONTON. Put an end to all of this. Many of the same players are on the field for Ironton. Let em have it one more ...

3 on 3? Does the OHSAA restrict players to two from one school on any one team or on the floor at a time during the off season? What exactly is the rule here, and is that legal? Just curious b/c eligibility is at issue???

Tough loss, Pirates, but hold your heads high. 2008 will go down as one of the all time best baseball teams at Burg. I am very proud of all of you and I enjoyed watching you play over the years. Good luck in everything you do in the future. You have certainly been held to high standards by all of yo...

Way to go Pirates! Every trip to the state takes a little luck, and during that game luck (and Adam Wamsley's defense, base running, and pitching really frustrated Indian Valley. Good luck, Burg.

For Wheelersburg readers: Drew Spradlin had 8 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 blocked shot, and played 14 minutes, playing a little at the 2/3 slot and finishing up at the point guard position (:)) Ohio was very TALL and STRONG, something Kentucky just could not overcome. On Friday night, Drew comp...

Dennis Gagai- Northern Kentucky (DII) (I am not 100% sure on this. Anybody?)

Congratulations to Drew Spradlin for being named All State 1st Team. Does anyone know of other Wheelersburg athletes who received All State 1st Team in both football and basketball during their high school careers? Also, was named Player of the Year for both football (offensive) and basketball in Di...

This makes no sense. Of course the parents of some of them are employed by Burg's school system. That is always the case. Do you know how many people live and work in the district, and send their kids to school where they pay taxes. Seems like a stupid and obvious post to me. So what?

Looks really political to me, especially when the Wheelersburg girls team that went to the regionals couldn't get a single girl named to FIRST OR SECOND team, when their team beat many of the other league's teams and clearly has very talented girls who deserved to be named to the first or second tea...
