I appreciate you keeping us out of this. Not looking good on the basketball end for McDonald this year

Always a good tradition at McDonald. Good to see their football fans on here regardless of the season played out.

My best guess on this... Some of the losing teams turned in their pads and now need something to do to take out their frustrations. Once they get into basketball or wrestling practice in a few days, they'll leave this thread to the professionals.
Also, I think this is only some of those teams, especially those who weren't coached to learn how to win and lose with dignity.

I admit. I have zero clue as to who is good and who isn't in basketball.

Seopreps is a nutcase anymore. I can't post on there without being called a troll. Eastern fans are the main reason of it. Have their best season in 22 years and act like they can go out and beat anyone in the state.

Lowellville 's main guy was Ballone. When did it change to Bunofsky?If one kid getting hurtlike as if he was some wingback filling a spot on the field… You JFK people are so jealous it’s sad you all come on here and gang up on people. What a waste of time, do you ever go back through and listen to how bad your takes are sometimes? Lowellville lost their main guy on offense and a big part in the defense, it’s tough when you only have 15-20 boys in each class 9-12, there’s no backups there. Lucas is missing their 2nd string running back, but let’s call it even
Get a life You JFK dads, pathetic

I played for Dalton in 1995. Our non-conference that year was Malvern, Tuslaw, and Indian Valley. I don’t remember playing Lowelville?For those curious, you can find Lowellville results from 90-07 at this link (in fact, you can find any Mahoning Valley school just changing the name in the URL):

I did find it interesting Lowellville split a home and home with Dalton in 95-96

I like Matt. He’s a great guy who means well. He put a ton of work into rebuilding and improving the site c. 2014-2021. But, honestly, he would be wise to retool his moderating team. I like most of those guys, but for various reasons the content control has really fallen by the wayside… and making matters worse is you have well-meaning posters who call out the (at times) crappy moderation only to have those posts deleted or their accounts suspended.

When they didn't win because Bunofsky got hurt. Ready made excuses.
Both were a big part of their team. Bunofsky injury at the end of the quarter hurt the rockets. Bunofsky was their best linebacker and #1 receiver. It certainly might have been a different outcome with Bunofsky playing the whole game.
It might be hard times for a while for McD football unfortunately. Maybe year after next.

I agree with JFK and Ursuline winning, but South Range will easily beat Mooney.
Have a nice Freshman class, I’d expect another year at around.500 then in 2024 and 2025 good things

Danville has had some subpar seasons in recent history. If we include 2017 through this incomplete ‘22 season, the Blue Devils have amassed a 38-28 record.
1 - final four appearance in ‘17 falling to Cuyahoga Heights
They have lost to Lucas 3 times in that span. (We’ll get to why that might be)
They have finally beaten East Knox for the first time in their last 5 attempts.
Strength of schedule rating: 26th
The coaching staff is young enough to still be playing ball…and you might guess, has seemed to relate to the kids at a high level. They were painfully young a year ago and we’re still very much in every game. Another year in the weight room and I feel like Danville has arrived ahead of schedule.
Lucas has had a much more successful run in recent memory. If we include this incomplete season going back to ‘17, the Cubs have earned a 53-20 record.
1 - State Final falling to MSML
2 - Regional Final losses to JFK and Trimble, respectively.
They have, in fact, owned the last 3 contest with Danville.
Strength of schedule rating: 5th
Spitler and company have enjoyed quite a feast in DVII over the last few years. They’ve gone the way of the privates ironically enough this season. Joining the likes of Canton CC/Mooney in facing a tough (.500 at best) schedule and walking through the playoff’s against lesser…tested opponents.
In the right atmosphere, this is a low scoring contest. Lucas, I’m sure, is feeling very comfortable right about now. Prepare for a team you’ve bested recently. In a game you understand and feels normal. No more circus sideshow. Lucas was within the smell of victory in just about all contests this season if the 4-6 mark was giving you any sense of confidence…reconsider.
The first glance at Danville this year was surprising. The size presented well. Speed too. The physicality was always there, but the little devils have grown up. As the season has marched on they’ve had just a hint of trouble keeping the impressive pace they began. I would consider this a byproduct of youth. Within the team and coaching staff. What is important is that they have shown signs of being a REAL threat to this region. Sometimes that’s all you get… How important is consistency? Although East Knox isn’t keeping opposing coaches up at night it was very important to get a win there. Why? After 3 straight losses to Lucas, you’re going to need to know you can get it done when that’s all that’s left to do.
CalPreps has this one: Lucas 21 - Danville - 20
Fantastic50 has Lucas (-13)
That’s interesting.
Lucas - 35
Danville - 38
I really hope Danville can kick.

That would require Southern to actually line up to kick an extra point. Southern goes for 2 damn near always. Only way theyre kicking if the game is out of reach and they wanna practice extra points
