... if ANY team is thinking Final 4 right now they probably don't make it out of their sectional ... good TEAMS take every game as THE game - looking down the road passed that curve will only find you in a ditch somewhere NOT down the road ... Coach Combs & his staff are waaaaay to good to allow the "down the road" mentality to creep in ... if anything it is only the coaches who are thinking "beyond the curve" - when you have a team that has the TRUE potential to get from point A to point B to point C the coaches look at the potential match-ups "down the road" ... might even go watch a "down the road match-up team" during the season BUT the coaches never allow the "down the road" thinking to get beyond "coach talk" among themselves ... even "coach talk" isn't talking past "SECTIONAL" match-ups/seeding possibilities imo ... Final 4 berths are a reward for "surviving and advancing" in the unpredictable "one and done" post season imo ... they're the "Evan Yabs in the right spot at the right time for the tip drill basket in the regional final closing seconds" ...THAT'S what "plans" for getting down the road in the post season look like in real life ...

Here in VC land, you will always hear. Win the league and make it to the Convo. One game at a time. That's the right mentality to have. When you see teams that have the potential to make it far in the one and done season. Some talk too far in the future. I see potential here , but never look past your next opponent. That's where upsets come into play.

The Northwest Mohawks pick up two wins over the weekend with wins against Portsmouth West and Ironton St. Joe. That gives them 4 wins on the season (4-13).

Pfloyd, I believe you may have missed one of their wins in the weekly rankings. The Mohawks also had wins at West Union and Whiteoak earlier in the year. Maybe this is enough to finally get them off the end table? :)
