What is everyones thoughts on this game? I think Waverly will win this one but it will be close. The Tigers are looking for some revenge on the mohawks and i think they will come out fired up.

This should be a fun game to watch. Waverly has some very good talent, but hasn't gotten that spark when they need it. This could be there game with the Mohawks playing some young starters in that loud environment. I'll take the Tigers in a close one with Walls having a big night.

It could be loud if Tiger fans come out in force. Waverly had a decent crowd Tuesday night but we need a much better turn out Friday night. Just don't turn out - TURN IT UP A NOTCH! This team is ready to turn it loose, maybe Friday night is the night.

This will be a good game. I think it will set the tone for the rest of the season for both teams. Northwest has played flat the last two games and Waverly has realy played good its last few games. The team that comes out with the most energy will take this one. I'm goning with the Mohawks in a very close game.

I'll take the Mohawks in this one, we have one of the loudest cheering blocks if not the loudest in the area.

WKKJ in Chilly reports 79-76 Waverly. Looks like Waverly finally got the offense rollling. The have the weapons, but have not been able to get three guys off at once.

GO CAVS!!!

Congrats to Waverly on good win tonight against a very talented Northwest team. Looks like the Tigers are making there way back up to where they should be, and picking up some much needed wins. Good luck to both teams down the stretch...

Congrats to the Tigers on the victory. They had a rough first half of conference play, but should continue to play well the second time around.

Congrats Trevor on an outstanding performance.

I am so impressed with Harrison Martin. The kid has grown up so much this year. He will be a fun one to watch for the next 3 1/2 years. Derek Roback played very well in overtime for the Tigers, along with the glove Ray Ray Conley. Trevor Arnett hit some big three balls early. IMO he should be on the floor at the end of the game.

Congrats on the win Tigers, you earned it.

Waverly hit 17 of 24 from the line but only 6-10 in OT.
Northwest shot 8 of 13 from the line, 3-4 in OT.

72Xcurl, everyone played well in OT.

These guys are getting more confidence and starting to play better together. This team could easily be sitting at 11-2 instead of 4-9 but have failed to win the close games until tonight.

tigers2010...do you have any stats on Waverly's 3 point shooting percentage?

That was a great basketball game last night. Both teams played hard and battled one another the entire night. Plus, we were able to see some free basketball in the overtime period. Waverly was able to win a close one tonight and every player contributed. The Tigers had a good night at the foul line and limited their turnovers. Hopefully they can keep it going and build on these past two wins.
Congratulations Walls on tying the record and playing an outstanding game! Martin continues to improve and impress, Conley played fierce down the stretch, Roback made key plays at the end and rebounded well, Murray played under control and managed the offense, and Arnett made key shots in the first half. This was a team effort and is what the Tigers need to do to be successful.
Great job Tigers! Keep working hard!
