7th grade in Scioto county is between Valley and West. Valley has some really nice players and West has the Sanderlin kid who is really tough.

Not buying. We’ll see how they fare against Waverlytoast wrote: ↑Thu Dec 07, 2017 2:08 pm Looking like Wheelersburg may have one of the best 8th grade boys team around this season. Word is they have a couple of kids playing that were not at Burg last year. Apparently the best player from Portsmouth West last year and the best player from Ironton last season are at Wheelersburg this year. Should be a very good team, maybe the best around.
Should be a good matchup. They play each at Burg this coming Monday. Does Waverly’s jr high press like the high school? If they do, should be interesting to see who plays against the press better. This group from Burg can smother you with their press.Ironman92 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 07, 2017 10:33 pmNot buying.

Waverly can definitely press. I’ve heard Stully is out? Hope not but if he is you might be able to press Waverly...but Robertson is the best ball handler in 8th grade anywhere around here. I don’t think I would press them but I’d definitely be ready to be pressed.Proud_Pirate63 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 08, 2017 9:42 pmShould be a good matchup. They play each at Burg this coming Monday.

Both of those kids looked pretty good when we played them, but the Tigers were just too much still.toast wrote: ↑Thu Dec 07, 2017 2:08 pm Looking like Wheelersburg may have one of the best 8th grade boys team around this season.

I was told Burg also had a new kid from Portsmouth that wasn't there in 7th grade. Relievable source I believe. The rematch should be another good game. 7th grade game should be excellent also. Looks like Waverly's 8th grade will have their hands full again tonight. I hear Minford is good and that they are HUGE.TIGER#27 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 8:21 amBoth of those kids looked pretty good when we played them, but the Tigers were just too much still.toast wrote: ↑Thu Dec 07, 2017 2:08 pm Looking like Wheelersburg may have one of the best 8th grade boys team around this season.

Maybe that's what was meant by my source. He was a credible guy. I'll make sure I get more confirmation before posting for now on.
Don't know about him but some of the other stuff is pretty brazing. I know their superintendent has been made aware. Let's see if they back offJEEPNATION wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 3:19 pm everyone knows the guy at Burg recruiting is Mr. School Board President Matt Miller! it aint no secret anymore.
