Briefly describe your best win at Wheelersburg

 

The best win was probably Portsmouth 2004, but I think Valley 2002 and West 2003 need some consideration. Against Valley we tied the game up at the end of regulation on a Weaver-Webb hailmary pass and then won it in overtime to give Coach Lewis his first win. The win against West in 2003 gave us our first SOC championship since 1999.

 

 Briefly describe your toughest loss at Wheelersburg

 

Both losses my senior year were tough. We lost 21-0 against Ironton in the first game. It was hard never winning against them. We always got so close but we couldn't get the breaks at the end. Then losing to ACC 27-25 in the regional finals was tough because it was our last game and it was for a spot in the state-semis.

 

 Describe the most memorable event while playing at Wheelersburg

 

There are so many.. But I will never forget Coach Eaton's speech before Portsmouth in 2003 and his halftime speech against Valley in 2002. I will never forget Suter's stories before practices and running out of the tunnel against Ironton my sophomore year.
