It's always good to get a win. Gr Latrobe is not a good team, but Fremont has learned to manage those types of games. I just wish they could get over the hump and be very competitive and win some of the games against the bigger schools.Wednesday night final....
Fremont Ross 58
Greater Latrobe, PA 56
If Lima can get a couple wins against SJJ and Central this week that would help their case. They did not look that impressive against Dunbar and St. Francis held them to their lowest offensive output so far this season. Not sure what that says about St. Francis.Good slate of games this week.
Tuesday:
Whitmer at St. Francis
Findlay at Clay
Central Catholic at Fremont
St. John's at Lima Sr
Friday:
Lima Sr. at Central Catholic
St. Francis at Clay
Whitmer at St. John's
Fremont at Findlay
The league standings are a jumbled mess right now. Is St. Francis' hot start a fluke? Can Central stay unbeaten? Can Lima and Whitmer start separating themselves from the pack? Can Fremont pull off an upset? Can St. John's get back on track? After this week, these questions will be answered and the standings will start to take shape.
Keep your day job!I predict Ross beats Findlay tonight. Call me Kreskin.
STOP THE COUNT!
1st in TRAC, but 3rd at best in WBL.The first round of conference games is almost finished.
Findlay at Lima
Clay at TCC
St. Francis vs St. John's (at UT)
Whitmer at Fremont
Although Findlay is in 1st place, I would still consider Lima the favorite for that game. TCC and Whitmer will take care of business to remain in 1st place (although Central has played one less game). St. John's should beat St. Francis. If the Trojans can knock off Lima, they would be the surprise of the first half of the season. They were picked 5th in the preseason poll.
That right there says a lot about the TRAC.1st in TRAC, but 3rd at best in WBL.
Even with Lima at top, they would lose to WBL eliteThat right there says a lot about the TRAC.
Who is elite in the WBL besides OG?Even with Lima at top, they would lose to WBL elite
This season Defiance has a 10-1 record and no losses in the league. They still have the bulk of their league gamesWho is elite in the WBL besides OG?

I agree with this, also the WBL only plays a single round robin because there are 10 teams, so just 9 league games while it’s a double round robin (14 games) in the TRAC, NLL or NBC. Speaking of which, what will the NLL schedule look like for basketball next year? I would think it should be a double round robin in divison and single out of division. 15 games for the 6 team division or 14 games for the 5 team one.Defiance has already beaten 3 of the other top 4 WBL teams besides O-G. I'd like to think it has clinched no worse than a tie for 2nd place, but we will see. I don't see the Bulldogs winning at O-G. Defiance already beat St. Francis & Findlay in the TRAC and has Whitmer ahead. Defiance is currently #3 in the Martin RPI in D-II (one spot ahead of Central) and has some good wins, but I wouldn't see it getting through the TRAC without at least a couple losses. It's more of a haul than playing low-level WBL teams.
Looks like it will be that way. Decided to check out arbiter and see if anyone in the NLL had league basketball schedule uploaded for next season. Perrysburg has their league schedule in. Home and home with AW, Findlay, Whitmer, and Northview. Single game with the other sixI agree with this, also the WBL only plays a single round robin because there are 10 teams, so just 9 league games while it’s a double round robin (14 games) in the TRAC, NLL or NBC.

Findlay 47 Lima 36
I can’t remember the last time Lima had four losses in conference play. They lost a ton of super talented guys to graduation (Moss, Luster, Miles, def forgetting a few). Not surprised they are in a bit of a valley, but maybe a little at how deep it has been so far.I think at this point we can say Lima is not nearly as good as they were the past handful of seasons.
Young team this season. If they can win 10 or 11 this season I'd say this team did pretty well going forward into 23-24. I want to say that Mosley is the only starting senior.I think at this point we can say Lima is not nearly as good as they were the past handful of seasons.
Senior high went 9-5 in 2016-17 and 6-8 in conference play in 2017-18. The next two years after that they went on a pretty good little run. So hopefully that similar scenario plays out.I can’t remember the last time Lima had four losses in conference play.

Simpson v. Wortham in the City League will be a great series to watch.Senior high went 9-5 in 2016-17 and 6-8 in conference play in 2017-18. The next two years after that they went on a pretty good little run. So hopefully that similar scenario plays out.
