Wow, Swampfox, that is a great line up, both days. Are you having anything over at the Convo this year? Also, where is the parking at Marietta now that they've built all of those new dorms and wiped out the parking there off of Seventh street? I'd really like to come and catch some of these games, but now I have no idea where to park. Can you shed some light on this?

They built a new parking lot by the new dorm.College won't be in so it will be empty

TTT - I put an ad on the TVC web site swampfox ... let me know if it looks o.k. (info, date, time) or if there is something you want me to add.

Unfortunately, the Convo and all Division 1 Courts are off limits with the latest NCAA ruling. The information I get is the NCAA believes it is a recruting advantage to hold these events at Division 1 schools. I guess it is not an advantage to hold districts and regional tournaments at some of these locations. Maybe money talks.

Thanks for the TVC promotion. The tournament will have the Athens boys, Federal Hocking boys Eastern boys and girls as well as both Alexander teams.

And Belpre

Well, that is unfortunate Swampfox. I always enjoyed attending the events at the Convo. I'll do my darndest to make it up to Marietta this year. It is a nice venue as well, and honestly, it is almost the exact same distance from my house as the Convo, so no complaints from me. :122245

CHANCE OF SNOW SATURDAY ... 70%

lets all cross our fingers that it will be just light snow - and that no travel concerns will affect the games.

The Athens-River game on Saturday night at 9:15 will be carried on 970 WATH and 97.1 FM. The game can also be heard online here: http://streamdb3web.securenetsystems.ne ... teURL=true

will anyone be their all day - and if so - would it be possible to have updates provided?

even if its just a final score after each game would be great!

So will this event be cancelled today or at least some of the early games?

It's on

Are they playing all the games today?

ALL GAMES ARE A GO ... EASTERN (GIRLS) VS FORT FRYE (GIRLS) ARE IN THE 3RD QUARTER RIGHT NOW.

Good to hear, who won the first game?

Not sure who won the first game (Alexander girls)

Eastern (girls) beat Fort Frye 52-49

Finally found a score for St. Clairsville vs Upper Arlington from last night's game:

St. C Red Devils 66

UA Golden Bears 63

The last tourney/classic from down around Southern Ohio ... someone posted EVERY SCORE (soon after the result was in) AND posted who the players-of-the-games were ...

it was on the girls forum ...

EVERY TOURNEY/CLASSIC/SHOWCASE during the regular season should have a person who does that - be responsible for media relations.

ITS 2012 ... ALMOST 2013 for goodness sake ...
