I assume it's the date and not day that is wrong on these ? Feb 27 is a Sunday not Saturday
I would think so. I just copy and pasted this from TwitterI assume it's the date and not day that is wrong on these ? Feb 27 is a Sunday not Saturday
Would love to see a Brush/Mentor district final. Based on all of their talent, m aybe Brush will finally break the ice & win a district title. It will be interesting.
The potential for a Brush vs. St. Edward rematch could be something to look forward to!And the winner likely plays St. Edward in the regional semifinal
Me too I will be definitely upset if we don’t get that matchupWould love to see a Brush/Mentor district final. Based on all of their talent, m aybe Brush will finally break the ice & win a district title. It will be interesting.
Yes!The potential for a Brush vs. St. Edward rematch could be something to look forward to!
That looks extremely easy
Thank you very much! This was very insightful for Boardman! Good luck on the rest of your season!Boardman is a pretty solid team all around and have a good coach. Tough defensively. Not overly consistent shooting the ball and have got into some ugly low scoring games. Their best player is 6’6” Trey Depietro who is more of 3/4 playing center. Most guys are 6’ or so in rotation of about 9. So not a ton of height.
They were competitive vs high seeds Hoover and Lake earlier in year losing by 9 and 5 respectively. Split with Youngstown Chaney who beat Mentor. They are 7-1 in 2022 w/ only loss vs Harding w/o Depietro playing.
They’ve got Massillon at home in 2 weeks who they could see again 12 days later if they can get by Alliance.
However, Brush is by far the heavy favorite in the district based on the talent they have and I think it would take a near perfect game from any team in the district to take them down.
Teams can choose any of the available lines on the bracket, the byes are pre-determined. Most higher seeds tend to choose a bye, though a small few higher seeds chose two games the first week (one of two reasons for that - get two easier games instead of having someone pick on them after an easy game, and/or they have a significant gap in time b/n their last regular season game and a first playoff game date).So what exactly is the strategy when coaches are picking their spot in the bracket? Is it to balance travel time and avoid the best teams? Can anyone choose any spot when it’s their pick- as in, could a high seed choose a spot next to another high seed so they play in the first round? If you look at how the bracket ended up, it looks like the first team to pick an opponent was Boardman picking Alliance- could any of the previous 15 teams have picked to play a team already placed? Are they limited by which lines they can choose from?
The bracket ended up pretty balanced, so I’m wondering if that’s because of rules, or just the good teams avoiding each other early.
I did wonder why Brush went to Euclid knowing that St. Ed'd might end up in Cleveland instead of Twinsburg where they would play the Alliance winner?Teams in this structure all have different goals.
The top teams are probably looking at regional play, how can we get there as easily possible and/or who do we play.
The next group of teams are probably looking at district play. How can we get there as easily as possible and/or how can we advance deeper into the district.
The last group of teams are probably thinking can we win a game, who might we get slaughtered least by, is there a convenient trip.
The reasoning is it’s closer and it’s also easier for fans travel, plus they would be playing teams they are used to. Trust me Brush isn’t scared of anyoneI did wonder why Brush went to Euclid knowing that St. Ed'd might end up in Cleveland instead of Twinsburg where they would play the Alliance winner?
