Minford at Burg 9-10-09

[BIG POPPA]

Who wins this matchup? Thoughts?

I sure was impressed with Minford's big three Duncan Jordan, Jake Hackworth and the exchange student that is the icing on the cake. Waverly gets an exchange student from Brazil that has only played soccer in gym glass, go figure
Should be a heck of a game. On a neutral field I' d take Minford, but the Burg at home is hard to beat.

But I hear he's the real deal on the basketball court.

You can say what you want to about the Brazilian exchange student, but I know that South Webster had one from Brazil in the 97 season and he said that he couldn't even make his high school team...... HE WAS A SUPERSTAR UP HERE.

This should be a good game. Minford's defense seems to be pretty tough & Hackworth does give them potential on offense. I'm sure Burg will come ready to play. Is Minford better than people expected? Maybe nobody told them they were going to have a down year.

The Brazilan exchange student is a super nice kid but doesn't even start on the reserve team.

I'd go with Burgin this one
Minford did not drop much in form this year as many expected, their keeper is steller
But Burg at home in a fairly equal matchup is hard to look away from
I think Burg will surprise some in this one

Very fun game to wach, fast and physical play on both sides. I must say though that i lost a little respect for the burg forward who pulled the legs out from under the minford player after the whistle. fortunately the ref was on top of the situation and awarded him a card for it. The card was yellow but could have just as easily been red. He is a valuable asset at burg but given his recent antics at the waverly and minford games I think someone needs to help him figure out how to take just a little of the emotion out of his game. Don't take this the wrong way, I'm not trying to come down overly harsh on him. In years past he earned my upmost respect as a top notch player and I would hate to see him change paths and earn a bad reputation.
Keep the faith Burg!!! The next games with these two teams will certainly be highly anticipated.

Congrats to Minford for taking a share of the SOC lead. After not defeating Wheelersburg for a number of years the Falcons have now defeated (including the tournament) Wheelersburg three times in a row.
