What if we get this 6-10" of snow tonight and tomorrow. Do they cancel the game and move it to Saturday night?

If they don't cancel...getting to the game and parking might be a mess. Hope we don't get what they're forecasting.

19GarbageNews said 12" for Wooster. What a crock. Warm temps will allow roads to be wet only by tonight. It's game time.

Still on for a B-dubs meetup afterwards.....I'll be there anyways, so anyone that wants to seek me out is welcome to.

Just back from BWs and watching the Buckeyes struggle, but win in OT, the roads were pretty much clear and dry, so go traveling tonight! Maybe on BWs tonight as I do have more free wings left to use up.

You could start a nice Orrville vs Ursuline thread , I think they have a few fans on the Salem district thread that would help us out with that.
I found scores and a team picture, no roster.

Team picture

It appears they have a very physical looking big in the middle.

thanks Riders1!

Yeah the big in the middle looks 6'5" or so...and the kid front row on the left looks like he could be one of the taller ones as well. Probably a guard heavy team....with quickness.

They played athletic Buchtel and Kenmore close and did beat Massillon so your probably right OQB.

Well we are still playing with an 11-13 record, the only team left in DIII under .500. Triway was the last of the PAC teams still in and besides us 2 other OCC teams play Sat in district finals. Senior 15-7 plays Findlay 20-2 and Madison 16-7 plays our game #1 opponent Shelby 20-2 and #8 in the state polls, another of our tough schedule opponents. So we played 6 games this season against teams in district finals.

10-1 with 2 district championships, and a State Runner-up trophy....Hard to dispute that!


Just think what he could've done with those teams from 03-08....especially Hiller/Brenner's senior year.

Your not saying we had some talented players then?

3 wins over Triway in the last 2 seasons, plus 3 wins in football in the last 2 seasons, some great memories for these players :)

4 wins in last two years? I thought it was 3. We won at home last year.
