Tigers have a tough road test tonight at Crab Orchard

The Thompsonville Tigers, who have dropped eight straight, make the short road trip to play Crab Orchard tonight at Dee Ozment gym in a Greater Egyptian conference contest.
Tiger coach Pete Gordon had this to say about tonight’s match up, “Crab Orchard is a very veteran ballclub once again we will have our hands full tonight I hope that we can compete and shoot the ball better.”
“We have to continue to work hard and improved in every aspect of the game.”
Coach Gordon had his team over yesterday. I do not like Jared Payne’s hoodie by the way.
The Tigers looked much better against Carrier Mills Saturday night. From social media, it looks like they had a good time yesterday bonding and big time NBA 2K 16 tournament with Coach Gordon’s family yesterday. (Please tell me the winners.)
The Trojans will be too much at home. I have a feeling T’ville will play well. I am going with Crab Orchard by eight this evening.
Tigers Fall To Carrier Mills

THOMPSONVILLE- Cold shooting continued to plague the Tigers Tuesday night as they fell to the Carrier Mills Wildcats 46-28 Saturday night at Doc Harvey gym.

Carrier Mills Coach Keil Peebles had his team in a 2-1-2 zone all night as expected, and the cold outside shooting continued for the Tigers who shot 10/45 (22 %) on the night.
The Tigers played a lot of zone most of the night as well being in a 2-3. They had a tough time stopping Justice Hill down low as he scored 16 on the night. The Wildcats shot 50% from the field and 78% from the line.
Thompsonville only turned the ball over six times on the night in which coach Pete Gordon mentioned they took better care of the basketball. He said even though T’ville did not shoot the ball well, they got some good looks. He said they competed much better than the last time out against Hardin County.
Anthoney Darge (21) is fouled on the play as Jared Payne (24) is mixing it up inside as well
The Tigers (3-9) have a short road trip tomorrow to Dee Ozment Gym to take on the Crab Orchard Trojans in which will be considered a conference game. Carrier Mills (7-10) will be heading down to Pope County to take on the Pirates in what will be considered a non conference game.

Boys high school basketball preview for 1/14/17

When you start flipping over the schedule, familiarity starts to set in. Both Games on today’s docket has been rescheduled from last night.
ZEIGLER-ROYALTON (1-9)(0-4) at SESSER-VALIER (2-3)(6-9) 2:30 p.m. start
Both teams know each other well. If Whiting gets hot and the Devils are cold, Z-R could hang around.
With the addition of Austin Bollinger on the inside, the Tornadoes have a way to neutralize Jamie Lance in the paint. Before, that would have been an area that S-V would
have dominated.
I am going with the Devils by 12 this afternoon.
I was thinking this week about the situation at Z-R. They play their guts out and just overmanned. They basically are a school the size of a GEC or an SEC school and playing in what is a 2A schedule now. One of these nights, they will surprise someone and knock them off.
CARRIER MILLS (6-10) at THOMPSONVILLE (3-8) 6p.m. start
Even though they are in the same conference this is a non conference game. The first conference game that is played is the only one that counts in the conference standings.
The Tigers come into this one banged up. Out of the thirteen on
The two teams in the first matchup at DeWitt gymnasium back in December
their roster, nine are only healthy. He mentioned that going into the GEC tournament week after next, that Carrier Mills is playing the second best in the conference.
Gibbs, Hill, Jackson and the rest of Keil Peebles crew are on the upswing. What looked to be a promising year for T’ville at the first is deteriorating in a hurry.
I won’t be there but Coach Peebles will come out in a 2-1-2 zone. I am going with the Wildcats by 15.

There will be short and sweet previews. Thank you to everyone who provided school closings and game information.
CHRISTOPHER (10-4)(9-5) at GOREVILLE (3-0)(9-5)
There is a Battle Royal down at Johnson County tonight. The teams are more than familiar with each other playing eight times in two years. Christopher won four times against them last year.
No introductions should be given. The Bearcats have Bradley Young, Kaelab Pedigo, and Jared Curry. in the other side of the fence you have Braden Webb and Brant Glidwell.
This week there were some scores that lit things up. Gabe Schimpf had 18 against Z-R. Mavis Helton and Peyton Massey had a big game against Sesser-Valier. You better not foul Cool Hand Luke Bryce Pratt if the Bearcats get the lead.
A lot of points will be put up on that awesome scoreboard they have
down there. It is going to come down to the benches. Goreville Coach Todd Tripp has played Cole Tosh, Blaine Dunning , Peyton Massey, and Morgan Bishop a lot. The first two off the bench for Christopher coach Eric Stallman has played limited minutes. guard Zach Snell and post player Cole Sanders.
I am going with Goreville by five. I am keeping a close eye on this one.
WEST FRANKFORT (6-7)(0-4) vs MASSAC COUNTY(4-6)(1-2)
This is the second meeting between these two teams. The Redbirds beat the Patriots 46-33 in the Consolation Championship of the Eldorado Holiday tournament.
Austin Glodich had his way against Massac the first game. Noah Allen kept Darius 
Roundtree in check.
I would love to see the battle on the bench between Kevin Toney and Joe Hosman tonight.
The Patriots will make some adjustments. Massac County is a burial ground. The Redbirds will come out of Metropolis tonight with a one point win.
HAMILTON COUNTY (4-11)(1-4) at JOHNSTON CITY (0-4) (6-10)
When I wrote the story on their game Friday night against Chirstopher, it had over 2,000 views. Several were from McLeansboro. With access to video on Foxes Fans.net, I can give them some very good coverage.
Oakley Dial has been dominant. He was WSIL’s player of the week. Jake Whipple has been playing well. Coach Varner has played nine or ten deep.
The Indians have some good athletes. They live and die by the three. They do not get their big man, SIU football bound, Max Edwards involved a lot.
The Foxes have played with a lot of good teams. They gave Harrisburg all they wanted in the BIT. They have been oh so close several times, but can not get over the hump. I am going with Hamco by one in a barn burner tonight.

Tigers drop their seventh straight
January 7, 2017 By Leave a Comment
Steve Dunford
THOMPSONVILLE- The Thompsonville Tigers were sitting at 3-2 on the season after their 71-55 win over NCOE on December 2nd. They dropped their seventh straight game in a 50-27 loss to Hardin County in Greater Egyptian Conference play.
“Cougar Chaos” traveled well last night, as the visitors bleachers on the east Side of Doc Harvey gym were packed. They did not make the long 75 mile trip back home on Route 34 disappointed.
6′ 7″ sophomore Center Anthoney Darge steps to the free throw line last night for the Tigers
Coach Pete Gordon all year has been telling over and over what his young squad needs to do. They need to cut down on turnovers. I had them with 10 in the first quarter alone. I don’t know how many they finished with for the game with but several were unforced.
Free throw shooting has been another point by Coach Gordon where they have struggled. The Tigers were 7-18 39% from the line.
In my view, there were several of opportunities to attack the zone that were passed up. Hardin County is very prone to get in foul trouble. It is something this young ball club is going to have to learn to do. The GEC is a dominant zone league. The only teams that play mainly man-to-man is Gallatin County and NCOE. Crab Orchard mixes it up.
Tiger G-F Reed Raubach being guarded by Tyler Winters, who has over 1,000 points in his career.
Even though they are struggling, it seems like any team filled with sophomores. Please be patient with the coaching staff. There are three very good ones on the sidelines. Most of all be patient with these kids.
I left a disgusted alumnus last night, I am going to be honest. I have thought about last night a lot. The Benton Rangers have a lot on their roster that had to step up and play when they were young. They were 25-4 last year. They are 13-1 and ranked 7th in the state in the latest AP class 3A poll. Again, I said just be patient. Good things will come in time.
I talk to Hardin County coach Rodney lane a lot throughout the season. I did not get direct quotes but he was very pleased with the defensive effort from the Cougars. He said they missed too many layups.
He also gave me an update on sharp shooting guard Cameron Shaw. He went down with a knee injury with six minutes to go in the first quarter. He said his knee is still swollen today.
The post players had their way last night inside for the Cougars. Craig Hudson led the way with 15. Jamison Hicks had 12. Tyler Winters had 11. Cory Wilce was the only Tiger in double figures with 12.
The Tigers dropped to 3-8 on the season and 1-4 in the GEC. They are 1/2 game ahead of Pope County for the cellar. Hardin improves to 4-8 and 2-2 in the conference. With last night’s win, they are in sole possession of third place.
Hardin County has Galatia at home on Tuesday night in their second home game of the year.
Thompsonville has Carrier Mills in a non conference game. The first game a team plays each other counts in the conference race in the GEC.
Around the GEC last night, Seth Ramsey burned up the nets in Golconda last night as he had 48 points in a 91-69 victory over Pope County. Crab Orchard went down to Century and won 77-67. Galatia made the trip to Marion and thumped Agape Chirstian 77-49.
I just got a Tweet that Gallatin County beat Webber Township 52-40 this afternoon.
The seeding meeting is taking place Monday. I always do some bracketology. Here is my “fly on the wall” ballot.
- Gallatin County
- Crab Orchard
- Hardin County
- Carrier Mills
- Galatia
- NCOE
- Pope County

HS Boys Basketball Preview-1/6/17
January 6, 2017 By Leave a Comment
by Steve Dunford
Every team in the county is in action tonight except Sesser-Valier, which they travel to Trico tomorrow night. I am sure the faithful from Pitchfork Nation will be a little sad making the trip over there as they took over an establishment in Willisville that is closed now.
I will have West Frankfort coverage from either the Southern Illinoisan or westfrankfortsports.com. I am going to Thompsonville tonight. I am also going to write something on the Christopher game. I am watching the video stream from FoxesFans.net in the archives sometime tomorrow. The other two games I will squeeze enough out to get a story out of.
Since the surprise icon comes up, you will have to look at my ugly mug for the pic for a while. Wherever you go tonight, sit back and enjoy a night of good high school basketball. There are some dandies on tap.
HERRIN (8-3)(0-1) at WEST FRANKFORT (5-5)(0-2)
Both teams have been off since the Eldorado Holiday Tournament and went 3-1. The Redbirds took the consolation bracket by beating conference foe Massac County 46-33. The Tigers ended up losing the championship to the hosts, 57-47. It is noteworthy after winning the EHT that the Eagles cracked the class 2A AP poll at #10 in the state.
Here is what WF coach Kevin Toney had to say about this evening’s contest, “I think Herrin is a very talented and deep team. Their inside players of the Downen twins and DJ Spell are athletic and very skilled. Add to that, the perimeter shooting of Nessler and Bush, make them a formidable group.
Hartline and Ringel handle the ball well, too. If by chance, someone isn’t performing well for them, they have Holloway, McCormick, and others coming off the bench. All that being said, I like our players’ attitudes and their work ethic. Winning some games at the EHT also gives us some added confidence.”
Here is what Herrin coach Mike Mooneyham had to say about tonight, “Herrin is looking forward to getting back to regular season action. We had a good Eldorado Tournament but came up a little short. The atmosphere was great and I can’t fault their effort.but we just didn’t finish it off when we had the chances.”
“I a chance to watch West Frankfort three times during the tournament and they are improving each game. Winning the consolation championship, must have their confidence at a high level.”
“Of course Allen and Glodich have to be a focal point, but we will not overlook what Thrash and Sturgill do for this team. Coach Toney does a great job and will have them ready. The Herrin Tigers will be ready as well.”
Going into the EHT, I would have said that Herrin would beat the Redbirds by 15 points. I am picking the Tigers to come out on top in a five point win.
HAMILTON COUNTY (3-9) at CHRISTOPHER(8-4)
If Tom Wheeler does not go to Massac to do the game with Jim Muir, I am naming tonight the Wheels Classic.
The Bearcats blew out Trico Tuesday night. The Foxes won on a buzzer beater by Oakley Dial 55-52 over GEC opponent Carrier Mills. 
The three prong attack of Kaeleb Pedigo, Jared Curry and Bradley Young will cause the Foxes some match-up problems. If the Foxes play a zone, to stop Young and Curry’s dribble drive penetration Pedigo and Gabe Schimpf will shoot the lights out. Pratt has played well beyond his years as a freshman. I am curious who will guard Dial, my money is on Curry.
The Foxes are a veteran bunch along with Dial, Austin Potter, the Rapps (which gives them some size inside) Jake Whipple, and Matt Rubenacker seems like they have been in High School for seven or eight years now. Kyle VanAbba had a good tournament at Eldorado.
This is a pesky team that plays like the “McLeansboro Foxes.” (Not a typo). HamCo will give the Bearcats a good game. They have lost three barn burners in a row. I am going Chirstopher by eight.
HARDIN CO. (3-8)(2-2) at THOMPSONVILLE (1-3)(3-7)
Thompsonville had their best game in a while in a 47-44 loss at Galatia Tuesday night. Hardin County casts the Demons out at win less Dongola last night 81-25. Hardin County Coach Rodney lane says that is not a good measuring stick to see where they are at. The game before that they lost to Vienna 61-44 in which four or five Cougars fouled out. Coach Lane said they are going “to get off the bus and play” after their 75 mile trip coming from Elizabethtown.
“Thompsonville Coach Pete Gordon had this to say about tonight’s contest, “We just need to play to our potential relax and play. We have been so tight, and need to have fun. If we do that we will play well, and when we play well, we can compete with anyone.”I see the Cougars coming out in a zone, which the Tigers have struggled with. Hardin County has a very good back court in Cameron Shaw and 1,000 point scorer in his career, Tyler Winters.
Thompsonville’s back court of Cory Wilce, Tyson Kessler, and Jared Payne is a pretty good one too.
The biggest key is the battle down low tonight between Craig Hudson and Anthoney Darge. Hudson is much more physical and Darge has developed into quite the shot blocker.
Freshman Corbin Fitch plays like a house a fire and Reed Raubach can come in off the bench and help bust the zone. 
Both teams have a lot back from last year and battled. The Cougars came out on top in both but by one at E-town and in OT in the GEC tournament.
Hardin is about five points better on paper than the Tigers, but I smell an upset tonight. The Cougars record is deceiving because they played a brutal schedule.
I am looking forward to going to my Alma Mater and seeing a good ball game.
BENTON (12-1)(3-0) at MASSAC COUNTY (1-1)(4-4)
Benton lost a heart breaker to Pinckneyville in the Duster Thomas Hoops classic 59-53 in the championship game of the tourney. As mentioned earlier, WF beat the Patriots by 15 in at Eldorado in both teams last outing.
This is what Benton Coach Ron Winemiller had to say about tonights outing, “It is a very tough place to go play. The number one reason it is a tough place to play is that the Patriots are always good and well coached. Roundtree can really catch and shoot and is as capableof having a huge game as any guard we have played this year.”
“Thompson will create us some match up problems with his size and athleticism. There other guys do a great job of filling their rolls and making it difficult to help into the post because they can catch and shoot. It will be another tough road trip on a Friday night in the River.”
Massac has some holes because Noah Farmer and J.T Webber elected not to play because they signed letters of intents to play baseball for SIU. Joe Hosman has been saying that he loves these kids but the team is not very deep. He says he will play more zone this year than he has ever played in his coaching career. I have heard Coach Hosman sing the blues before and win 20. He is a class act that I love talking to.
In my notes, I had Isaiah Thompson giving the Rangers some problems. Parker Williams has played very well down low. I look for Timmy Henson or Austin Wills to do a very good job on Darius Roundtree.
I think Derek Oxford will have a good night. Whether Coach Winemiller throws in Hamilton Page, Gehrig Winn, Blaine Pankey, or Cade Thomas into the mix, the depth of the Rangers will hurt Massac.
I am going with the Rangers by 12 tonight.
VIENNA (10-3)(3-0) at ZEIGLER-ROYALTON (0-2)(1-7)
The Eagles beat the Tornadoes 64-40 at home on their last time out.
This is what Vienna Coach Cory Waters had to say about tonight’s game. “Last time we played ZR it was on Homecoming night and we had a lot of energy. We need to make sure we bring that same energy and work on being more disciplined on defense. They have some kids that can score and we need to make sure they don’t get in a rhythm.”Zeigler-Royalton coach Matt Morgan gave me the following comments about tonight, “Vienna is an extremely deep team that brings a lot of athleticism to the game at every position. They guard extremely well and use their athleticism on the offensive end to attack. It will be key for us to contain their dribble drive and force them to take contested shots. The key for us offensively will be moving the ball and valuing possessions. When we limit our turnovers we usually have good results.”
extremely well and use their athleticism on the offensive end to attack. It will be key for us to contain their dribble drive and force them to take contested shots. The key for us offensively will be moving the ball and valuing possessions. When we limit our turnovers we usually have good results.”The Eagles have a good back court in Brandon Casey in Lucas Strickland. So does Z-R in Steven Anderson and Brendan Whiting. Vienna beat Sesser-Valier by 13 Tuesday night. I see them making a run for the BDC west title. I am going with the Eagles by 15 but the Tornadoes will show up ready to play and play hard.
Tigers fall short to arch rival Bearcats in consecutive games…
January 4, 2017 By Leave a Comment
Steve Dunford
GALATIA-For the second game in a row the Thompsonville Tigers faced their conference rivals and neighbors the Galatia Bearcats, and both times fell to defeat.
Last night it was a see saw battle and The Tigers had a three rim in and out in the final seconds to fall to defeat 47-44.
I know I say this time and time again but free throws and turnovers hurt the Tigers again. They took much better care of the basketball the last three quarters. They coughed the ball up 10 times in the first quarter but only ended up with 19 on the night. They were 6/14 from the free throw line and the Bearcats were 10/15.
Here is what Tiger Coach Pete Gordon had to say about last night’s game, ” We still had too many turnovers. The fact we had a decent look at a three to win was a positive. Free Throws, breakdowns, and just an overall understanding of how to attack a zone is disappointing. I am still happy that my players play hard and compete. We just have to still learn from our errors and try to improve. We will continue to get better and I know we can compete with anyone on our schedule and we need to find ways to win some of these games.”
Galatia Coach Rod Wallace described it as a very good defensive game by both teams.
Cory Wilce led the Tigers with 10 points on the night and led with three steals. Corbin Fitch added nine points, Tyson Kessler eight and led the Tigers with five assists. Jared Payne also added eight points. Anthoney Darge led the Tigers with five rebounds and four blocks.
For Galatia, Luke Lawrence led all scorers on the night with 15 points, Kody Matthews added 11 points with five steals, Austin Stevens scored nine and Will Pulliam won the battle of the boards with 12 rebounds on the night.
The Bearcats improve to 4-11 and 3-2 in the GEC. The Tigers fall to 3-7 and 1-2 in the GEC.
T’ville will be at home for the first time in a month on Friday as play the Hardin County Cougars in a GEC match up. Both games between the two last year were dandies, and I expect another on on Friday night. I smell this young ball club going on a run soon.
Galatia will be at home on Friday playing Agape Christian out of Marion in a non conference game.
Happy Birthday to Coach Gordon’s wife Sarah. I hope it was a great one.
