Luthern west was better team by far, just a shame that no one on the roster lives in Rocky River. Are they all Lutherans?

Agree, none of Rossfords starters live in school district either. Always good to see a TRUE community school make it.

I don't where Van Wert keeps getting their kids lately. Pratt is a force at 6'4" but he's hardly alone.

Lutheran West had a pretty nice dunk off an inbound pass early in the 1st that caught my attention.

The talk concerning the private vs public has been going on since the early 90s when it started to blossom. Certain coaches took advantage of the existing rules at that time with little oversight. Today, much of what happened in the past continues. New coaches coming in have figured out the formula for success in a hurry. More importantly with the pandemic closing public schools and canceling games (even this year) has forced kids along with parents to look for better alternatives than public schools. This has destroyed many once tradition rich big city schools. Kids with talents and parents want an education and playing time. The over zealous school boards closing schools have only added to the acceleration of talent moving to private schools. This is only the tip of the iceberg. Once the trend has been set up it will will increase in time. There are multiple examples of this if you study history and compare to today. Since the early 90s I have been waiting for privates to win all division in both boys and girls. Only a matter of time till it happens now

Only a matter of time till it happens now Once kids at other schools lose interest and no longer play and schools can’t field teams whether it’s basketball or football and the privates and Catholics take over then it’ll be an issue with the OHSAA. Look at how many schools already do 8 man football and also those schools that are very close to this. It’s just sad to watch the deterioration.

at least at the D2 level there's a chance to overcome the teams like Lutheran West...it's even worse at the D3 and D4 level...teams like Richmond Heights, etc.

Perhaps in a big city but smaller towns (d2) they’ll need a lot of help. May have a super player surrounded by role players but you need 2-3 others from outside districts to compete at that level. It’s turning into a big city title quest at all levels

9 years later, I still wonder how podunk Norwalk did it. And, I want to thank Coach Gray because I never heard the word "podunk " until he referenced it.
Rest assured, like Glenville in Football, Van Wert will give it all against West.
FYI, Sandusky is now 0-11 @ Regional. Not all were against all-star teams. 2017, you lost by nearly 25 to.....
Wauseon
Don't make excuses; get it done

Getting to see that Norwalk team and the Upper team was truly once in a lifetime teams for each school.

AAU Rossford came together from AAU. and if you watch them play.. they play like an AAU team.

Sandusky style of play works until you meet a team that has solid guards . The further you advance ,,,the better the guard play normally. Lex would have given L West a better game.

The private school enrollments in Mansfield have shrunk, along with the city schools. Mansfield St.Peters, Mansfield Senior AND the no longer in existence Malabar basketball is nothing like it was in the early 90s and earlier. St.Peters now barely has enough players to have a team, The biggest problem is the OHSAA is afraid to enforce their own Bylaws, for fear of protracted lawsuits that could bankrupt them. For example, did all those kids for Rossford that don't live in Rossford, did they have to sit out half the season and tournament the year they showed up in Rossford?

Except Lex's guard play was their weakness. Which was highlighted by having their 6-8 kid off the bench do a lot off the ball handling in the 2nd half.

One thing I don't understand, why can't Sandusky do what let's say a public like Rossford does? Do kids from Perkins transfer to Sandusky or is it the opposite?

Sandusky has NEVER won a regional game, in 11 or 12 attempts, so maybe the big lights/big stage have alot to do with this as well. Good season, but only 1 team gets to end their season on a happy note.

I agree WF,,,Lex's guards were just fair hence like you said they fell apart against the Sandusky pressure. LW was able to handle it so they won.
Speaking of Lex,,,I wonder if the really good Freshman stays there all 4 years or moves on to an IMG type school to play better comp and get exposure.

If st Pete’s can’t find donations to pay for tuition that’s a reflection on the economic condition of mansfield As to publics losing enrollment is a sign of a aging community Catholic charities do plenty for illegal aliens

Rarely does a kid from Perkins transfer to Sandusky. Perkins has benefited more from kids outside the district helping them in athletics. Both the Rowe and Young (football studs) kids live in Sandusky. I imagine the help those two could have given Sandusky in that game. Especially with all of the second chance opportunities LW got. If I'm a "big" in the Sandusky area right now, I would transfer in with the guard play they will have for the next two years. A post presence would make them pretty good.
