Region 4 Pretty much the usual 3. Springboro is on a good run...

Ok, What is up...WEST looses to Lebanon 13-14? is it true...If so, how did so many runs get scored...

 

[Strohbro]

Lebanon did win, 14-13. Way too many pitches were on the plate.
Four 3-run dingers and a grand slam helped with a lot of the scoring.

Maybe Milford ain't as bad as some say... West 2 earned runs of the 7...

I have never heard anyone say Milford was bad - have not heard that once.
They just are not at the level you seem to think they are. They are a Top 10 team in the Cincinnati area.
That is good! But not close to that for the entire State!!!

 

[Stedman00]

tough way to lose for West. Up 13-9 going to bottom of 7th, give up 5 runs to lose. couple bad hops, couple errors, couple hits and boom.

Lebanon is very tough team to fight back and win. I think they need to play better to beat Mason though.

 

[CARDS]

If ANYONE said 27 runs would be scored in a top GMC/GWOC match up I think everyone would say"... "your crazy...
Was it truly play or, umpires not giving corners? Dam that is a ton of runs for teams that do not give up many...

Thunder I will say it... Milford is good, just not the level of a #4 GMC or GWOC team... Very good coaching and in their league they should be top dawg...I think they are more realistically on the level of a Harrison..Good But...

 

[tankerlab]

With practically the same teams milford beat Lebanon last year 3-1.
Milford beat western brown 3-1 this year. Lebanon beat them 1-0 in 8 innings... how many runs did West score on Lebanon in 7 innings? How many did West score on Milford in 11?
But... they didn't prove it. Props to West...

 

[tankerlab]

Harrison??? Really????
Wow. Yea I think they beat them 12-4 this year...

Lebanon beat Greenville 2-1, Milford beat Greenville 6-3 Greenville beat Western Brown 8-0. Scores don't mean much it's about what day it is. Milford had a great season but it's over and arguing about it won't change anything.

Tanker Milford went as far as their talent would take them...Nothing bad but its HS Softball...If Milford had the likes of Harrison/ Edgewood/ Fairfield/Oak Hills in their league they would be .500 vs. them. Likes of an EAST,WEST Lebanon, Mason may squeak out 1 W... Now I know they cannot choose their league but it is rather weak...
I do not recall and after looking at the league and non league games Harrison Playing Milford this year...If they did I say a coin toss...

You are delusional....lmao
Need to have Bruce singing "Glory Days" in the background for you......

If "If's" & "But's" were candy & nuts we would have Christmas all year long!
Your team beat Greenville, a D2 school & Kings twice.........They played no other team in Ohio worth mentioning.....Get over it & move on with your life!

 

[tankerlab]

No way am I saying that! How could you derive that from what I said? The whole argument here is they were better than being given credit for... that's all. No beef with Lebanon at all! Great team! Milford is being made out on here by some that if they played Lebanon or Mason the game wouldn't be close...

Again, you are the only one who keeps saying other's are talking bad about Milford. I have not heard or seen that written once.
What they are saying in Milford should never have been considered a Top 10 team in the state! They are not. They are a Top 10 team for Cincinnati, & possibly one of the 30 better teams in the state. They did not play anyone this year to even make a case. Not sure why they backed out of the game against Lebanon????

And as Dominic Toretto says "It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or win by a mile - A WIN is A WIN!!! Score doesn't matter....
I think most believe Mason & Lebanon would win 4 out of 5 against you........doesn't matter what the scores end up!
But since there was not even one of those match-ups this year - You can continue to live the dream........

See the negative mind set??? Why they "backed out " of Lebanon game???? It's called league rules.... Conference games being made up take preference over non leuage games.... trust me, no one wanted that game to be played more than Milford... especially when Milford's pitcher held Lebanon scoreless for the last 6 innings as a Soph. in District final and beat them 3-1 as a Jr....
Season is over for Milford....
Going to watch the two best teams in Southern Ohio tomorrow! Should be a great game!

 

[Captain_Thunder]

To be the Best, you have to play the Best!!!
I would be willing to bet any amount of money that Mason would not have cancelled a game against a top tier opponent to make-up a game with Middletown!!!!
They would have found another day for the GIVE ME Win.......

I'm just glad you have all these Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda memories to grow old with......LMAO

make up game with
MIddletown??? Shows how much you know about Milfords schedule. Did you even see milford play? More than one game? How do YOU know what talent level they had to play to? Correct their conference is no way close to GMC.. . That has nothing to do with their talent level or potential. Nice woulda coulda shoulda comment... oh well, good luck trying to even the score with Lebanon... and I will have some great memories, 4 conference Championships, the last two undeafeated with a 52-2 four year record and a 4 year career 49-8 pitching record and 27-0 career pitching conference record... Especially all the polls are done... Milford was in print at #3 at one point, No one can take that away from them... I know, all that matters is where you finish. Congrats to your team!
