TC at #2????? i dont know about that

[Vbwatcher]

cory beat them on a late pk because VB's keeper took a shot at a cory rawsons players leg...still dont understand why he would do that. But i guess a win is a win right?

[thebighurt]

I think bluffton should be a little higher. maybe three, probably two. Everyone has been saying that they haven't played anyone good yet or whatever. But they did beat cory rawson 6-3. Cory rawson beat Van Buren.. Both of these teams are in just about everyones top ten. But keep the top ten as you will. Bluffton has a tough patch of games coming up. We'll see how it is in two weeks.

[Vbwatcher]

Van Buren and cory would have tied if it was not for VB's goalie taking the kid out byt the legs..Van Buren is a lot stronger than people give them credit for

ok.....you cant make an excuse like that. soccer is won by taking advantage of the other teams mistakes. thats how you win
and Van Buren has to prove that they are better then people give then credit. you cant expect to get credit for some thing that you haven't earned.

[knightmare07]

If you watched the games that VB has won and played well in, you would realize that they have earned that credit, and even in some of the games they have lost, they still showed up to play instead of laying down to die as they have the past two seasons....

[Thumper]

Good catch former coach ... Its proven I make mistakes
I stand corrected and have updated my list.

Err... St. Marys? DIII?

[Thumper]

I have to agree with knightmare07 though .. Van buren is a good team from the games I have seen them play. Well coached and good ball possession.If 23 has an open look at the goal with the ball he is a serious scoring threat.

O'k boys, I've been wrong a lot, so here goes:

1. Kalida
2. Bluffton
3. Riverdale / Temple Christian
5. Miller City
6. Ottoville
7. Ottawa Hills -- I'm only listing them because everyone else is!
8. Botkins -- may be going too far south, heh?
9. Sidney Lehman
10. Liberty Benton

[whatever]

thumper thats really not saying much cause if anyone has an open look they are a scoring threat

[Thumper]

Guess you have a point Whatever.. I guess what I mean is the accuracy and power of the shots I have seen him take are pretty impressive even outside of the box.

[formercoach]

SL and Botkins are not NW Ohio.

Ottawa Hills is the real deal, just faced quality competition early on.


Big day for games today...

[Deuce22]

Ultimately Temple will have to continue to prove themselves if they belong in a top 5 Conversation...with Botkins, Miller City, Ottoville and Ada left on the Schedule they will definitely have their chance

1. Kalida/Bluffton- calling it now, Kalida and Bluffton will meet up in the regional finals
3. Ottawa Hills- i wasn't sold on these pretty boys last year and we beat them i have a feeling bluffton will also not be sold on them
4. Temple Christian- had a lot of young talent last year, look forward to watching them come tourney time
5. Riverdale- these boys really haven't lived up to my expectations yet this year
6. Ottoville- not too sure about them but they score as usual
7. Cory Rawson/Miller City- its not so pretty but someone has to be 7 and 8 right?
9. LCC........ and 9?
10. New Knoxville...................... maybe even 10???

[Thumper]

You might be right xfactor... but I was waiting to watch bluffton when they play some harder team. I agree they can definately score but even against moderate teams they are getting scored on. here is the rest of their schedule

Sep 13 Celina should be a good test not top rated this year but decent competition
Sep 16 Riverdale (Mount Blanchard) same as above decent competition
Sep 20 Wapakoneta Home weaker competition
Sep 25 Ottawa-Glandorf OG hardest game yet
Sep 27 Bryan Home not showing much this year
Sep 30 Van Buren Home good team good possesion not consistant - but should be decent competition
Oct 4 Shawnee (Lima) If they beat this team rank bluffton #1 in div 3
Oct 7 Kalida Away The matchup everyone wants to see with bluffton. Wished they played Temple as well

1. Kalida/Bluffton- calling it now, Kalida and Bluffton will meet up in the regional finals
3. Ottawa Hills- i wasn't sold on these pretty boys last year and we beat them i have a feeling bluffton will also not be sold on them
