Braves Lose :( :( :( :(

Last night, the Logan Elm Braves boys basketball team played Fairfield Union. The Braves lost, by 3 points. The final score of the game was 56-53 Fairfield Union. At the end of the game, with about 6 seconds left, the Braves inbounded the ball to Adam Blake, who shot a three and just missed. The ball was rebounded by Logan Elm’s Tyler Pritchard, though, who shot another three and missed it. This time Fairfield got the ball and ran time out. The Braves next game is today, at Wellston. The game should start at 4:30. The Braves are now 10-1.

Braves Win!!!!

Last night the Logan Elm Braves Boys Basketball team played at Westfall. Logan Elm was schedualed to play at Hamilton Township on Friday night, but the was cancelled due to school closings, the roads and snow. They will make that game up on January 14th. Anyhow, the Braves won last night against Westfall, making them 7-0. The final score of the game was 72-47 . The Braves next game will be Tuesday vs. Teays Valley, at Ohio Christian University. The game is slated to start at 7:30, and the J.V. game should start around 6:00. 

The J.V. lost their game in overtime, 36-29.

Go Braves!!

Last night the Logan Elm Braves Boys basketball team played Bloom Carroll. It was a pretty good game to the end, but we were always neck-n-neck with each other. Logan Elm came out with the win though, and it was absolutely amazing how it happened. With about ten seconds left in the game, we were tied 50-50. So Logan Elm gets the ball and takes it up court, wanting to run the time out so they can get the last shot. Our senior Adam Blake is handling the ball. With about three seconds left, he dribbles to the left-wing and shoots a three-pointer with a defender right in his face. The ball goes in right as time runs out. The score was 50-53 Logan Elm. Logan Elm remains undefeated and their next game Tuesday, December 22 at home vs. Circleville

All The Way Braves!!

The Logan Elm Braves boys basketball team is 3-0.  They beat Waverly in the Zane Trace Classic 55-37.  They also beat Amanda 78-26 and they beat the Chillicothe Cavaliers Saturday, who has won a state championship.  I do not remember the final score of that game but as soon as I know I will put it in this post.  The Braves next game is on Friday, December 18th at Bloom Carroll.  The Junior Varsity starts at 6:00 and the Varsity should start at 7:30, depending on how long the J.V. game is.

A Very Sad Loss

The Bengals played the Raiders Sunday and they started out by taking a 17 to 10 lead at half. Then they almost scored but Shayne Graham missed the field goal. Then at the end of the game with 34 seconds left the Bengals got the ball back after the Raiders score and on the return our returner Caldwell fumbled the ball and the Raiders recovered and scored a touchdown to win the game. People are still sad about the loss but I think they are  glad the Steelers, Browns, and the Ravens lost.

Thankful For the Brown’s Season

I am thankful that the Browns have only played two quarterbacks this year.  As poorly as they both have played, I couldn’t stand to watch any more.

I am thankful that the Browns only play 16 games.  That way the most they can loose this season are 15 games.

I am glad that Eric Mangini is the coach of the Browns because that gives the fans someone to hate more than the players.

I am thankful that the Browns traded their two best receivers.  That way other teams don’t have to spend a lot of time worrying about playing defense.

I am thankful that the Browns are losing a lot of games that way the Bengals fans finally have something the brag about after 20 years as losers.

I am thankful for Jamal Lewis because that provides fans at least one voice of reason from the Brown’s locker room.

I am glad the Browns had a bye week that way fans didn’t have to worry about losing for at least one week of the season.

I am thankful the Browns got to play the Ravens on Monday Night Football because . . .  Hmmm. I guess I’m really not so thankful for that.

I am thankful that the Browns are so terrible because I can sit anywhere I want at the stadium.

I am thankful that Brady Quinn has a pretty wife.  Let’s face it, he needs something to be happy about.

A Sad Day For Brave Nation

Last night, the volleyball and football played.  The volleyball team played in the Final Four while the football team played in the Sweet Sixteen.  They both lost .  The volleyball team came out strong and won the first two games but started getting a little tired and unagressive in the next games, causing them to lose the next two games, sending them into a fifth match.  The fifth match only goes to 15, instead of 25, but you still have to beat your opponent by two points.  Logan Elm lost the last match 15 to 13.

The Braves football team lost the game against Springfield Shawnee.  They lost by a touchdown.  Shawnee scored with 1.6 seconds left in the game to break the tie and put them up 21-14.  Logan Elm tried to do something with the ball, but nothing happened. 

Both teams are done for the season.  Great job!!  The Braves basketball season will start a week from Tuesday!!  Let’s hope we have a good as a season as we had last year!  Maybe we could even get a little farther than what they did last year!

They Just Keep Rolling

The Logan Elm Braves just keep on rolling.  They are still undefeated with a win Saturday over state-runner-up, Kettering Alter.  Logan Elm lost the first two sets and then came back to win the last three.  They now will play in the Final Four on Friday, November 13 at 6:00 in Dayton.  Good luck and great job!!

Logan Elm Braves Football Game

Last night the Logan Elm Braves football team played the Circleville Tigers.  They were playing for the County Championship.  If Logan Elm lost, we would have to share the county title with Circleville.  Luckily, we won 23-20.  Circleville scored first in the game and then Logan Elm scored to tie it up.  From then, it was back and forth for both teams.  Circleville scored once then a second time.  Logan Elm scored twice.  They also got a two-point conversion instead of a field goal on the last TD.  That put the game up to 23-20.  Logan Elm’s defense held the Circleville offense to win the game.
