Click beside the TIGER face down in the middle of the page.

It's a triple header night [Fr, JV, Var] and sometimes the Varsity game is a little late getting started if the earlier 2 games run long. The pre-game show is not yet on the air at 7:10 PM which is the correct current time. I've got a couple of distractions going on - I've got the radio on - I'll be back when they switch to the Fighting Tigers.
It's now 7:40 PM, and the pre-game show is still not on air.
FINALLY - at 7:47 they've just announced that the Fighting Tigers Countdown Show is coming right up after these commercial messages. Here we go at 7:50 PM.

FRESHMEN GAME - GALLIPOLIS 35 - IRONTON 28

[obviously my numbers don't always track - sorry I missed some stuff]
Great scrappy, never-quit, game by Gallia Academy.
Safe trip home - I'm out of here!!!

[wemufans]

WOW I can't believe this was so close? Are they really missing Tommy Waginger due to injury or is he off the team?

[Tiger Man]

Way to go TIGERS!!!

[TIGERS90]

Was told Wag Quit the team....not for sure but a pretty good source...couldn't get an answer to why...

Great outing by Koch and the fighting tigers......he was on fire...how many did he end up with on the night...points...and 3's?

[philthyphil]

Not sure on the 3s but he ended up with 34 points.

[Gray Fighting Tiger]

Congrats to the Fighting Tigers and a tip of the hat to the Blue Devils for making it close when many expected a major blowout.

For what it's worth, I think one more league win will give the Fighting Tigers their first league championship in basketball since 1980. That team pretty much had to be content with their title as they made an early exit from the tournament. Here's hoping history does not repeat itself in that regard.

Was told Wag Quit the team....not for sure but a pretty good source...couldn't get an answer to why...I dont know what is up with this team but other kids have Quit for some reason I hate to see this In Itown

Great outing by Koch and the fighting tigers......he was on fire...how many did he end up with on the night...points...and 3's?

[85inside]

Another great win by the Fighting Tigers. Still shocking to see what this team is doing. It shows what happens when you play great defense. Not much height at all on this team, but the determination is awesome. Great showing by Freshman Trey Fletcher tonight. Tim K. just continues to lead this team. Keep it rolling Fighting Tigers!
