    Youngstown area boys scores/schedules/discussion

    Sat Feb 3 Salem, 4-12 and winless in the EBC, puts Poland, 12-4 and 1st place in the NE8 on a running clock in the 4th and wins 69-39. Was Poland at full strength? Even if they weren’t, would that player(s) make a 30 point difference?

    2023-24 Eastern Buckeye Conference

    Aviators got after it on the defensive end. Salem missed a ton of bunnies. The paper had Salem under 50% from the line.

    Salem Quakers Hire Tracy Miller

    https://www.salemnews.net/sports/local-sports/2023/09/quakers-turn-to-miller/ Tracy Miller hired as the new boss of the Quakers. Seems like a good hire. Thoughts?

    EBC Basketball 2022-2023

    As a fan of the EBC, and definitley not a fan of the Potters, I wanted to see the Warriors get the win. Having seen both teams play this year, I anticipated a very close game. Knowing how bad some officials can be, I still have a very hard time blaming them for a loss. You said yourself they had...

    How many players on the same team scored over 20 points in a game during the season.

    I assumed some of the teams to get 4-5 players would be or would have been very good teams. Salem's record was 10-13 this season. I know they play in the EBC which tends to be a meat grinder. And looking at MaxPreps, the Quakers schedule was loaded with a lot of above .500 teams.

    How many players on the same team scored over 20 points in a game during the season.

    Talking to a buddy of mine and he said Salem's boys basketball team had 5 different players score over 20 points in a game at some point during the season. Having been around basketball for quite some time as a player, coach and fan, I don't recall something like that happening very often...

    East Palestine update

    The bulldogs are scheduled to play Southern at Quicken loans arena on Monday. As far as I have heard, the game is still on. With the evacuation order lifted, hopefully the game will be played. Moreso as a reprieve from the stress that accompanies this type of situation, and also becasue it's a...

    4-2 'Stall Ball' Win In Oklahoma Boys Basketball Game

    Many years ago I was an assistant coach for a .500 ball team playing the local powerhouse that made it to the Final Four that year. The team had a penchant for blowing teams out in the 3rd qtr. Head coach made the decision to not let this happen and held the ball for the majority of the qtr...

    EBC Basketball 2022-2023

    Definitely could get on board with Rinkes and Aukerman. Take Rinkes off that team and their season turns out totally different. As for 1st team, Miller from Marlington, although Himelheber(?) could also be an option. Gonzalez from Minerva and Diego from Alliance WB and Salem seemed to have...

    EBC Basketball 2022-2023

    Alliance vs WB- You never know what you are going to get with the Aviators. If they show up, the game could be over by half. But I wouldn't be suprised if its a close one. Marlington is tough at home and if Minerva has injuries as stated, the Dukes could win relatively easily. Salem at...

    It’s Time for a Shot Clock

    I get both sides of it. But I don’t agree with a team being punished by a shot clock late in a game because they were able to build a lead and the other team was unable to stop them. Further more, the major upsets would be a thing of the past. I don’t mean a 4 seed beating a 1. The 16 seed...

    It’s Time for a Shot Clock

    I saw Holgate play for the first time in the early 2000's down at the state championships. Final score was something like 25-20 or less. I was in awe of their ball possession skills, ability to run their offense until they had a wide-open layup, execution of the game plan and the coaches ability...

    EBC Basketball 2022-2023

    Someone is going to catch Alliance on an off night. Still might not be enough. They are the real deal. Saw Salem knocked off 7-1 Girard at Girard tonight. WB lost to Ytown East. Any other EBC scores from tonight?

    Accusations of Bullying Against South Range Coach

    I disagree. It used to be helicopter parents hovered over their kids protecting them from adversity. Now-a-days, the lawn mower parents will be on the battle field mowing over any chance of negativity their enlisted kids might face from China. We’ll be fine! 😒

    Accusations of Bullying Against South Range Coach

    Knowing nothing about the situation, I'm guessing being 5-0 would make this situation a lot different than it is with the teams current record of 0-5.

    EBC Basketball 2022-2023

    I believe all EBC teams that played started off 1-0. Marlington over Urban Scholars Carrollton over Tusky Central Salem over Niles Minerva over Tuscy Valley Alliance over Northwest When does WB start and is Deshields playing? Heard from a source he needs surgery and may be out for the first...
