Miami East, Tri-Village and wait for it... Mississinawa Valley Girls basketball teams earn sectional championships. Speaking of Miss. Valley on the other side of the basketball (boys), they earned a first round sectional win for the first time... in a long time. Congrats to the Blackhawks and the their legion of fans up in the flats lands of NW Darke County. Well deserved.
Miami East girls exorcised a demon from their collective system not once, but twice in one year as they defeated Versailles to earn ANOTHER sectional championship. The Tigers are young this year, but so are the Vikings; so come on Vikings fans admit it... this sectional win feels real good under any circumstance.
As a Patriot alum, nothing gives you the Willy's more the Royal Blue and White than seeing the J. E. T. S. Jets, Jets, Jets in a sectional game. So to say that the Patriot Nation just breathed a sigh of relief is an understatement. Kudos to the Jets on a great season, but bigger Kudos to the Patriots for finding a way to win after struggling with Cedarville last Thursday.
Miami East will face Hamilton Badin in the District final game, who came in as the number one seed out of the Wilmington sectional. Badin plays in the Girls Greater Cincinnati League and won the Grey Division. They are one of a hand full of Div III schools in their league and only one of their 5 losses was to a division III team. The Vikings face the Rams on March at 3 PM at Springfield HS.
Tri-Village plays Williamsburg who is also a small fish in a big pond in the Southern Buckeye Conference. Williamsburg plays in a league with Georgetown who is 23-0 and marching their way through the Div. III tournament. So assume that Williamsburg is battle proven and mother approved as the Patriots face the Wildcats on Saturday, March 5th at Tipp City HS.
The Blackhawks will face last year's Div IV State qualifier in the Redskins of Ft. Loramie. Fort Loramie had 5 losses this year but they are to teams with a combined record of... a lot of wins and very few losses. The Blackhawks have the 3 PM game in Tipp City on March 5th.
The boys are having a pretty good run in the first round of the tourney. So far the CCC is 6 - 3 and the boys don't have to prey on each other like we do in the girls Division IV tournament.
Good Luck to all the CCC teams!
