Had forgotten about the highlight videos @TheJDubTweets used to do for the site being on YouTube. This was such a great championship game. Lots of talented guys on both teams making big plays. Down to the wire in OT. Great stuff. #wvprepbb https://t.co/kgQ2AdG6Iw
✅ Grafton
Bearcats taking on Southern Garrett in championship of Sam Bord Tourney.
Guess I still have 3 gyms left now that Summit Christian has joined the SSAC along w/ other recent addition Wood Co Christian. Union is the only public school/longtime SSAC member left for me.
With our season now over, I’m going to try to knock out a few more gyms where I’ve never seen a game before. I’m down to 11 WVSSAC schools where I’ve never seen a game. #wvprepbb
The 3 remaining on the list where I haven’t seen a game are Grafton, Union, and Wood County Christian. Should be able to finish off all 3 next basketball season. #wvprepbb
The first round upsets have really slowed down. A few have it a good run (Parkersburg South, Ripley), but no seed 6-8 winners again this year, and most weren’t close. Could be a game away from no #5 winners either. #WVPrepBB
If you think 4 classes waters down the tournament too much based on some blowouts & almost all top seeds winning QF games this year, don’t forget there were four 7 over 2 upsets and the only 8 over 1 upset ever in the first 3 years of 4 classes.
@cgatorwade Not sure if you’re in the building but I think the Hamilton twins from East Hardy would be in consideration. Short but strong and super quick. Relentless all over the court and never stop. And Evan Hamilton has 20 points through 3 quarters.
@cgatorwade@DwaineOsborne@RichWha @YSUCoachE First I’ve gotten to watch Youngstown all year and loved the way they battled. Huge shot for the 4 point play.
@DStahnke Don’t love the coaches voting either, but to me there’s no way around it in this format. Can’t force everyone in region to play twice when some regions have 11 teams. And I don’t want a computer metric to be used.
I like new regional format. Was never fan of losing team advancing. I think this accomplishes the same things without loser advancing. But as a fan, I just wish every one of these semifinal (quarterfinal) games wasn’t on the same night, though I understand why they are. #wvprepb
