DSJ defense is killer.

Good luck Jay's from M L Flyer country......

I saw Lutheran East has five new players this year. It will be a big challenge for the 'Jays!

As much as I'd like to see a Perry / Delphos St. John final, this is a HUGE challenge for the Jays. Lutheran East has played as tough of a schedule as almost anyone in the state. The Jays have seen nothing like this team athletically. If the Jays can pull it off it's got to rate as one of the biggest upsets in a long time. An All Allen County Final would be talked about around here for a long, long time

Lutheran East can be beat. I have no idea on the quality of St Johns, but as impressive as LE will look in warm ups, they are not that good. They are battle tested for sure and play suffocating defense.

I've noticed their schedule and was impressed but also noticed that in their Div IV tournament run their games have been close. Let's do this!!

LE is listed as having 82 boys grades 9-11 and they received 5 basketball-playing transfers in 1 year?! That is so comical I don't even know where to start, so I won't. Good luck to DSJ, hope you guys win the thing.

I don't think it would be that big of an upset. LE is talented but they will go through stretches in games where they are their own worst enemy. I've seen them play a few times and their behavior is not always very good. They also make a lot of unforced errors. If DSJ can take advantage of these, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them win.

A school as small as they are gets 5 transfers in 1 year..and they all happen to play basketball. Again, shameful.

Don't disagree with that. Thought something happen on the court.

None taken. Just frustrating to see a talented group of kids who have been playing together since 4th grade run into a team who handpicked its players.
