Buckeye Central beats Galion 65-62 Ouch. Bad loss IMO I share your opinion. Buckeye 5-14 record entering the game. And the game was at Galion. Buckeye gave the Tigers chances to win by missing 6 free throws in the final minute.

I know the Ontario coach has taken some subtle and not so Subtle shots from some on this and other sites but tonight vs shelby his team was well prepared and very well game managed and coached IMO. He also did a very classy thing in the last 39 seconds. No need to go into details but he and his team made a young mans night that he, and anyone who witnessed it, will remember for the rest of the kids life. Class move all around.

I happened to catch the game in this moment. It was a tremendous moment. It was a close enough game that I felt Shelby should have yielded a basket in return. Either way, if this is how the MOAC schools conduct themselves, I'll be a fan.

I think all the Central Districf teams will lose in the first round except River Valley. Pleasant and Highland will lose badly. Marion Harding will be a 6-10 point loss. R Valley is playing well. Jonathan Alder has lost two in a row to finish the season. Jonathan Alder scored only 46 and 33 points in those losses. I don’t think Jonathan has enough offense to keep up with R Valley.
I hope not but think the Whippets could get upset before the district finals by Senior or Lex. I would like to see Shelby play their best in the next few weeks. CF, Ontario, and Galion will likely lose in the first round.

Why did JA get seeded so high and RV so low?

Maybe has to do with how many Central District teams each played?

JA may be picking up some extra favors based on recent history. Over the past four seasons, they've had two 20 and two 19 win seasons. We can argue if the MOAC is better than the Central Buckeye Conference, but JA has a better non con than RV.
I know they play a very very very slow offense. They are 9-5 this year in games where they score under 50 points.

They are 9-5 this year in games where they score under 50 points. It is normal for a voting district whether it is for seeding or player honors, to see teams from the same league stick together. River Valley would probably get more respect in both if they played in the NWAD.

I agreed with you dude until I looked at the seeding on 270hoops.com Central District 23 teams, 7 leagues. R Valley and Highland from the MOAC. The seeding for each league is diverse. I don't see any leagues sticking together to hurt other teams. The top 8 are Cbus City League North, Mid State League Ohio, Mid State League Buckeye, Central Buckeye Conference, Cbus Catholic League, and Cbus City League South. Mid State and City League don't play cross-division. 2022 Seeding in Central Div 2: 1 Beechcroft 2 Buckeye Valley 3 Bloom-Carroll 4 Linden Mc Kinley 5 Jonathan Alder 6 Bishop Watterson 7 Heath 8 South 9 Eastmoor Academy 10 St Francis Desales 11 Granville 12 Bexley 13 River Valley 14 Bishop Hartley 15 London 16 Highland 17 East 18 Marion-Franklin 19 Licking Valley 20 Horizon Science Academy 21 Centennial 22 Lakewood 23 Hamilton Township
The bigger issue IMO is the lack of respect or lack of success for MOAC teams. Thanks to the crawford county basketball and MOAC site for the information following.
Highland has not won a tournament game since 2014. Scots last sectional championship was in 2009. Scots made the district finals in 2008 and 2009. Scots won state title in 1998. R Valleys last sectional championship was 2008. Vikings won the Central District championship in 2007. Harding is Division I. The Presidents have won four tournament games in 28 years. The last sectional championship for Harding was in 1980. Pleasant is Division 3. Spartans have been the best rep for the MOAC in the Central District. Spartans won the Central district championship in 2016. Pleasants last sectional championship was 2019. But the Spartans have had three straight losing seasons and have not won a tournament game since 2019.

To add to the point about the central district, Jonathan Alder lost to Hilliard Davidson by 3 (something absurd like 36-33, because JA loves to slow the tempo). Davidson lost to Darby by 3 points in a low scoring game earlier this year. Marion Harding then loses to Darby by 25 points. It means a lot more to play Davidson and Darby close than it probably does to play Shelby close.
It's almost more fascinating that the skill gap between Highland and RV is perceived as so close.

Senior 93 Galion 45 Final
Senior improves to 6-16. Galion finishes with 5 wins. Big improvement in the win column for the Tigers!
Senior vs Shelby Friday night for a sectional championship.
Harvest Preparatory 83 Pleasant 62
Final
Spartans finish the season 10-13.
Five MOAC teams yet to play. MOAC 0-3. Losses by 25, 48, and 21. Not a good start to tournament season. Good luck this weekend to the Whippets, Colts, Vikings, Scots, and Warriors!
