He's small but has guts. I heard he was playing but can't confirm. Looked much better towards the end of last year than the start. They'll need him this year.

They'll need him this year. He wasn't at any of the open gyms and has not been to any of the practices so far. My guess is he's not playing.

Have they announced ticket sales to the public yet or is it just family of players only, like in football (if they have a season)?

According to the AD, nothing has been finalized yet but he was hoping for 4 tickets per family member per home game. That would leave me to believe there will be no tickets for the general public.

You’re teammates. And the 2 mentioned I can confirm it’s most likely true. I watched their reactions during JV when he wouldn’t kick it out for 3 instead he kept it and scored. Guarantee he works harder than any kid on that team. It’s a shame. Not sure who’s gonna run the point as he was their best option.

I liked him as a player and thought he had a ton of potential. BTW, there are options to report bullying if in fact it is true. If it is true and the parents failed to report it, shame on them for condoning it. What a disappointing situation all around for the player and the program. It takes a few kids to destroy what is being built. I sure hope they don’t think that freshman kid is going to step in at point, not ready from what I saw last year. Another missed opportunity.

His size hurts him but makes up for it with other things he can do.not sold yet on Trey running the point. Made some bad decisions at end of games but he was only a sophomore.if calab was being bullied and coach b knew about and just turned his head then shame on him.it wouldn't be the first time he turned his head to look the other way so it wouldn't exactly shock me. I hope they have a season. Does anyone know if Myles has developed a jump shot?

They’ll struggle this year and will likely end up putting the pinkston kid at point some.

They’ll struggle this year and will likely end up putting the pinkston kid at point some. We haven't had a true point guard on the floor in several years. Even with Brevon P. a few years back Parrot ran the point more than him, and by no means was Cooper a point guard. I agree, we'll see several kids spending time at the point during the course of any game. I'm not overly concerned about it. I can also say with a high level of confidence, people are dead wrong about the younger Dawson kid. He will play, and contribute on the varsity level. It's funny how some have an opinion and havent seen him, or any of these kids play in quite some time....if ever. Will they "struggle" this year? What team doesn't at one time or another? If your definition of struggle is.500 or worse, I think you're dead wrong. 14 wins is easily attainable. Another SBC championship is absolutely attainable. Will they win the District? Colonel Crawford and Western Reserve will have alot to say about that.

It's only the most important position on the floor.imo.if we are going by committee at the point then the team really doesn't have a "point guard" then that spells trouble.hopefully they figure it out very soon.someone has to step up.

Margaretta Polar Bears 3. Port Clinton Redskins 4. Huron Tigers 5. Oak Harbor Rockets 6. Edison Chargers Struggle doesn’t mean a losing season. Struggle sometimes means finding their identity. They will struggle at point, struggle at leaderships during crunch time and struggle with scoring. Preseason is usually based on returning letterman and a little history. They have talent, no doubt about it but those things I mentioned are keys to success and losing two high scoring leaders they had from last year, time will tell if anyone can and will step up. I know you have high hopes for the freshman but I remember the pinkston kid playing when he was a freshman and he was a hell of a middle schooler, he just wasn’t mentally ready. I’ll say it again, throwing freshman onto varsity is a mistake in my opinion, unless they are a superstar and sounds like your hope is he will be a superstar out of the gate. Lets hope you are right.

Fair enough but in my eyes you have to be some sort of superstar to be a varsity player as a freshman.

Lets hope you are right. can't agree more.ive only seen very few freshmen that can be a solid piece of the puzzle. A few.eric barrison is another one.prime time player in middle school but just didn't live up to the hype. So let's take it slow with these talented kids. Getting to much bite of the Apple at youngster is overwhelming.

When you have 3 studs like Willard had the past couple of year, a true PG isn't nearly as important as when you have a team of good players, but none who can take over a game.

In Balogh's 35 years he's only had 2 Freshman starters, Bryan Moloney and Griffin Shaver. And no significant contributors off the bench that were Frosh. Not even Benji or 6-9 225 DI player Matt Smith saw the varsity when they were Freshmen.

Fair enough but in my eyes you have to be some sort of superstar to be a varsity player as a freshman. It has become more common to see a freshman on varsity in the last 10-15 years of high school basketball. I think it is because many upper classman do not have the interest in being a support guy on teams. AND, there are a lot more kids playing a single sport all year round.

Willard, Huron, and Margaretta are very close. PC would be a distant 4th in my opinion. If pollsters are heavily weighting returning letterman then I get it, but Huron had the best JV team (undefeated) in the area last year. They may be lacking varsity experience but they have some kids that can flat out play. With Margaretta's loss of Raifsnider, I look for Huron to be in the top 2.

From all accounts, Myles was mis-diagnosed with a small bone in his ankle broken. He has participated in most/all practices/scrimmages and I believe well on his way to being 100%. Dawson 6'3" Weiss 6'3" Pinkston 6'2.5" Weirs 6'2" Cok 6'2" Adelman 6'1.5" Paxton 6'1.5" Mock 6'0" Dawson Fr. 5'10" Those are my best guesses based on the actual height of 1 kid and comparing him to the others. Also, I believe this will be the top nine kids, in no particular order other than height.

Not enough athletes to run and gun.its not a knock on the team,You can win many games that way if you can play great defense.

I could go on and on but I just feel that if Willard is going by committee then it spells trouble this year.
