This isn’t the same old Fed Hock team. You get a chance to watch them you should. They will really get after you and have size and depth. I think the TVC Hocking is down a little too. Trimble and FH are the best of the division. They also have Peebles coming to town. That should answer some of the questions. We know how good Peebles is.

Like I said, happy they are moving forward nicely. The Hocking isn’t strong so FH being much improved should net double digit wins and go from there.

That’s a long trip for Peebles!

Oh I understand what you’re saying. Yes a very long trip. We went to their place last year. Really liked their gym. Good folks too

Agree with u on Green but what happened vs Clay? That shocked me.. maybe Clay is better than I'm thinking?

Then they shouldn’t have lost to Manchester

I know absolutely 0 about Manchester other than there purple+ Eastern beat them in regional few years bk lol

Fair, I don’t either but North Adams beat them 77-40 and NA didn’t get to 40 vs Minford or Jackson

bbjunky81 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2019 9:23 am Here are some thoughts on a few of the teams above and why I have them where they are.

#6 Alexander - I don't feel like this team is getting enough credit. Granted, they haven't played many games yet. However they have a near 7 footer in the post, a stud point guard, and plenty of athletes around them. This team is absolutely capable of winning the D3 district title. Once they face a little more stiff competition I think the pollsters will see what I already know.

#9 New Boston and #10 Peebles - New Boston was the last team standing in D4 last year, returned a ton, and had some transfers move in. I'm absolutely on board with Peebles being the other best D4 team in SEO this year (they're loaded and superbly coached)... but New Boston deserves to be ahead of them until proven otherwise.

#11 Logan Elm - I slid them down a few because of their loss. However, it was a loss to a terrific team in Zane Trace so I only slid them a few spots down and let some undefeated teams stay ahead of them. That could change this week with many key games upcoming.

#17 Oak Hill - This is a team that could eventually crack the Top 8 of pfloyd's list. They have veteran players, a solid big man in Hammond, and Norm Persin at the helm. The SOC 2 is a little down so don't be surprised to see this Oak Hill team end up around 18-4 or 20-2 for the entire season. Norm WINS! Right now though their competition has been weak so it's hard to gauge just how solid they are until they face someone better. Tomorrow night @ Minford will be a decent test to see where they are.

#18 North Adams - I know the Waverly posters are still upset with me for having North Adams over them. North Adams finally showed up last game and blew Manchester out (even though Manchester isn't very good). They had a loss to an undisputed top 5 team in SEO in Jackson, and the only 'bad loss' is to Minford.... and we're still not sure how 'bad' that loss is as Minford could be better than we're giving them credit for. I think talent wise North Adams is a top 20 team, for sure. If they have another 'bad loss' I'm going to have to kick them out of my rankings.

BIGGEST QUESTION MARKS?

Wheelersburg and Ironton hands down... Wheelersburg finally opens up tomorrow and have had nearly a full month of practices before their 1st game (when's the last time this has happened in pirate land?). They have plenty of size and athletic ability. Truitt, McCorkle, Miller are a terrific 3 to build around and they have one of the best freshman in SEO in Sanderlin (West Portsmouth must hate to lose a kid of his ability!)

Ironton gets a really late start to the season and according to their schedule they'll open up with Africentric the 21st only to wake up and play Alexander the 22nd, both at the Ironton Classic. Wow! Brutal opening for a team who only has just over a week to practice. Fitch will have his team ready by tournament time but I see a couple growing pains early due to a new system and minimal time to install it.

Went to go ask a fan and he said that Matt quit and will not be playing. I also saw that Kyler Diaugustino (the freshman) took his place and tied Terry for the game high 17 points. Won't hurt them too bad it seems.

it absolutely hurts them.
Brown was a good player.
Losing an athlete of his caliber would hurt any team.
