Re: Fort Frye
I know Fort wants to play it. Last I heard is both schools are trying to get it to happen
Re: Fort Frye
You think Fort Frye versus Ironton or Wheelersburg would be competitive?dboy wrote: Wed Jan 28, 2026 9:27 amCan't imagine it because Fort Frye wouldn't want to play them or because those other schools wouldn't want to play Fort Frye? I think those would all be pretty good games year in and year out. Similar size and similar success in the past few years.efarns wrote: Tue Jan 27, 2026 7:18 pmI can't imagine any situation where Fort Frye would be scheduling Wheelersburg, Ironton, or Portsmouth. Harvest Prep or Fairland would be a long shot. Parkersburg South plays Fort Frye from time to time, but Parkersburg doesn't seem to have any interest.dboy wrote: Tue Jan 27, 2026 4:24 pm Didn't realize that they just recently started playing. Similarly, I think the football team should schedule Wheelersburg, Harvest Prep and Ironton and the girls basketball team should schedule Fairland, Portsmouth and Parkersburg. I prefer them to play teams that are good as opposed to teams that have been good in the past. Think it will prepare them for the long run. Hopefully the WC game gets played. I expect a pretty comfortable win for the Cadets.
Re: Fort Frye
I think they would be in Girls Basketball and, as I understand it, they will be in the same region next year in football so I hope they are. I actually have not seen them play in football but have read a lot from their fans on the football forum so it sounds as if they should be okay next year. I believe they have a lot coming back. I think I read that FF tried to schedule Wheelersburg a couple of years ago but couldn't get dates to match up.
Re: Fort Frye
They've met in Athens a time or two. I guess I could see it as a one-off or home and home "special attraction" on the schedule.
Footballwise - Fort lost to Barnesville by 28. Barnesville lost to Wheelersburg by 20.
