Good take
Ironton recruits talent because they have to in order to be successful. Burg has built a program to make up for not having D1 kids in order to be successful. In the end burgs way is more sustainable long term
That sustainability must be why burg has only made it outta the region something like 3 times in the last 30 years or so. 😭

And a state title in 2017. You keep forgetting that, although that’s understandable. IHS hasn’t won a title for so long, you probably are unaware that such a thing exists.

Burg still has track, baseball, and softball at the regional levels. After that, we will be looking at another solid Burg year. Will be really good offensively, hearing good things about filling the losses at defense.

It will be interesting to see how the offense runs this year. Good size line and have 2-3 solid backs. I know they lost a lot on defense. Especially def line. They will have some holes to fill but Burg usually does pretty good job of plugging players in to fill positions.

And they won that title with no Kirtland. No marion local. No Coldwater etc. Very easy path.

Ironton had the same path over the past two years. How did that work out for them?

BURG is 2 -0 in state title games. What is the record in those games for the mid West allstars?
