I can respect a Willard team that lays the wood against an undefeated team in a tournament game. I can't respect a Willard team that seemed to have ducked Shelby because it wasn't convenient for them.

I can't respect a Willard team that seemed to have ducked Shelby because it wasn't convenient for them. Lookin' for trouble again I see. You know nothing about the matter, as usual. Willard wanted to play as many games as possible this year, and knew it was going to be a challenge with Covid. When Shelby "shut it down" in December, and couldn't provide a date to its scheduled opponents of a restart, Willard did the prudent thing.....scheduled another formidable opponent in their place. No ducking on Willards part at all, we wanted 22 games and Shelby couldn't commit at the time.

I re watched the game this morning. Not sure WHS could play much better and that CC could play much worse. They missed a lot of shots tHat I bet they normally make. A lot of it had to do with the defense that Willard was playing. The help defense was outstanding. A kid who really played well and not much got on the scorebook was Cole Weiss. Really has improved his overall game in numerous aspects. Strong with the ball. Makes good decisions and then is physical on defense too. Same with Micah Dawson. One of his best games all around too.
Trey's start def set the tone. Once Crawford got behind by 10 their whole confident mindset changed. Then it became 20, then peaked at 35 in the 3rd. It's what happens when you're undefeated and not really pushed by good competition. Although they were probably overated somewhat----#2 in the State,,,not sure about that one other than being undefeated. WHS was ready this time around, this year. If anything, we snuck up on them and executed to perfection for about 3 quarters and there wasn't anything CC could do to stop it. Myles is just a load in the open court. Not many D3 guys at least in this area can defend him in transition. He's improved every year. Very good in almost every aspect of the game. Adelman, another kid that just plays within himself and gets rebounds and plays solid defense and doesn't make mistakes on offense.
On to WR. It will be a challenge for sure.

I watched the sc v western game earlier in the year and wasn’t overly impressed. After watching again last night I gotta say they look pretty tough. Played good defense and that wing is tough. However, I think Willard is better and match up just as good as they did with Crawford. Another thing about last night I thought was great.. I assumed they would put Myles on the n10 player of the year. Instead he put Myles on the pg and that was huge. Myles kept a pg like that from attacking and pulling up. Completely took him out of the game. Same can be said about Austin and his matchup. Austin played one heck of a game. I don’t think cc was ready for how tough of a night it was going to be on the offensive end. At the end of the day coach B deserves respect as one the best coaches in the area. He fits right in with all the big name guys Ive heard on this website the last several years. Losing two studs from last year and not missing a beat is impressive. The players deserve respect as well. What a tough group of kids.

Here we are in game 24 and we're still improving. To me it's the mark of good coaching. We are getting every ounce of talent and skill out of the guys right now. Keep it going Flashes.

Congrats to Willard. They definitely took CC to the woodshed for a schooling in all aspects of the game. I agree with most of the game analysis of buckeyekid and jvchesster. When you are missing layups and short put backs while the other team is knocking down multiple NBA 3's, you won't stay in the game score wise or mentally for very long. The biggest thing in my mind is that Willard out rebounded CC by a lot. That opened up everything else. See you again next year for the rubber match.

It was a genius decision by the coaching staff. Moreover, as physical as Chase Walker is suppose to be, Dawson and Weiss played much more physical. I do believe Sheldon was out coached. Kudos to Joe and Staff.

Kudos to Joe and Staff. Preparation is always key but come tournament time being able to change your focus overnight is big. I have seen CC play a number of times in Walker's 4 years and I have never thought he was a highly physical presence. Willard played extremely well and appeared to be the hungrier team. Revenge can help with motivation, just the same that being 23-0 can make you impassive.

No ducking on Willards part at all, we wanted 22 games and Shelby couldn't commit at the time. So Shelby called Lima Senior, Wooster, Olentangy, SPIRE, and Tiffin Calvert before trying to work something out with Willard? The only reason we never attempted to rescheduled with Ashland was they picked up a different 22nd game after Shelby had to postpone. Shelby shut it down and came back by December 18th. Played Lima Senior on the 20th and Wooster on the 29th. They seemed to be able to work it in. Maybe the Shelby coach forgot Willard had a team? Shelby wound up with 20 games after postponing all non-conference games to end the year around mid-February (i.e. SPIRE). There was no 22nd scheduled game for Shelby all year long after that initial shutdown. Willard didn't have 22 scheduled games for most of the season after Shelby had to postpone. Thing is, we had Olentangy and SPIRE on the schedule for a few weeks ahead of time. How come Willard never got on there?

This season was stressful for whoever was doing the scheduling. When a team was shut down tough decisions had to be made and even though most think finding a date may have been easy you have to remember that most schools also have girls games and wrestling matches to work around not to mention if a school gym floor is being used by JH sports or maybe another event because it provided spacing. In saying that, some schools may have still avoided others because they could. I heard that Madison did that to Lex.

I personally enjoy my annual "fight an entire town" charade I do on here. Good stuff. I consistently have to find a balance between battling the nausea of Willard possibly making regionals two out of three seasons and being happy Shelby and Willard seem to be coalescing upwards at the same time. Long live the rivalry, by any means.

I’m going with Willard over Western by 10. Flashes playing great help defense right now and are in a zone offensively where points can come from anywhere on the court.
WR is good no question, I just once again think our schedule has made us ready for the tournament and we’re peaking right now.
