Congratulations to Easter Brown , that defense is going to give anyone fits .
I agree Ironton will be a tough opponent they will pound the ball into carrico if he gets the ball down there he is really tough to beat good luck to both teams but I will be rooting for our ovc.

Congratulations to the Eastern Brown Warriors and Coach Buechler and his staff.........EB was clearly the better team, but it didn't show until the 2nd half. The Trojans played a very good first 16 minutes, but then the offense barely had a pulse in the final 2 quarters. This game was exactly how Portsmouth played for a majority of the season.......one good half or quarter, then a complete turnaround in the other direction. The Trojans were just unable to overcome inconsistent play all year.......but I'm still proud of them and Coach Collins/staff for managing to get 10 wins.
Eastern Brown played pretty much the way I thought......not flashy, but a team that doesn't beat themselves. As biggdowgg said, Ironton will be a tough matchup for the Warriors because the Fighting Tigers are physical and athletic. EB will seriously be challenged on the boards by IHS. I look for a close, low scoring, defensive minded game. Good to see the OVC represented well at the district with 4 teams.
