Re: 2018/19 Portsmouth Trojans

Trojan Dave can I add something else....when we talk of shooting anymore I think it’s strictly about the 3 pointer...the game has obviously changed...the Steph Curry effect...but how about the mid range game? ...A kid doesn’t have to be a 3 point shooter to be considered a great shooter or scorer......

Re: 2018/19 Portsmouth Trojans

As a whole I think the kids have hustled but they have had some lapses at times for sure... that too probably has a lot to do with lack of experience and maturity...I see a lot of frustration mistakes especially of late

Re: 2018/19 Portsmouth Trojans

I agree totally with the shooting... I have thought about that... how much can someone really improve over a summer? ... there is no doubt you can improve but by how much remains to be seen... I will say this ... I’ve seen Roe and Johnson knock down shots before and I don’t think their form looks to...

Re: 2018/19 Portsmouth Trojans

Through the course of a season teams go through highs and lows but when it’s all said and done most teams will end up being the team they are supposed to be. In my opinion, the Trojans were overachieving early on. Then once teams figured out that they only have one legitimate shooter the game plans ...

Re: 2018 OVC Football Offseason Talk and Outlook

Coach Duncan and his staff FINALLY got the program going in the right direction, now it’s up to Coach Kalb to build on what he has started. I believe him and his staff will do just that.

Re: 2018 OVC

Portsmouth has beaten only 1 team with a winning record the last 2 seasons, and the defense continues to be porous even though there was a slight improvement in that time (from 32 PPG to 25 PPG). Offense is not the problem, and the last 2 seasons have produced near a 27 PPG average. For the Trojans...

Re: Fastest Throwing Pitchers

Preslee Lutz is a talented up and coming pitcher who consistently throws 54-55mph with an improving change up. She has hit 58 on my radar but consistently sits at 54-55. I’d also add that it was early and cold. I believe that 60 by the end of the year is within her reach. Not bad for a younger 8th g...

Re: Portsmouth Football Coach

Trojan-85:

Sarcasm? Not at all
Have been called a clown before though
U used to go to PHS? 85 grad?
Trojans had a great team in 1984
U play football?
Power football is what they played that year
Killed almost everybody they played
Boomer Reid was a stud

Re: Portsmouth Football Coach

If true it’s a good hire. Why wouldn’t you hire someone from the current staff that was a part of Back to back non losing seasons? Not only is Bruce a great coach but more importantly he is a great man, father, and husband. Not to mention he is very intelligent. With him in charge and Matiz, Mayo, C...

Re: Portsmouth Football Coach

Regardless of who the next coach is they are facing an uphill battle and I’m not talking Sunrise Hill I’m talking the Himalaya Mountains. There are so many great people at Portsmouth but until the leadership at the top changes nothing will change. Poor leadership-and I’m talking administratively, la...

Re: Portsmouth Football Coach

First of all it’s a shame the Aaron Duncan is no longer the head football coach.Every parent in that school system should want their son around Aaron as much as possible. He is a class act and truly cares about the kids beyond football. Not to mention he led the Trojans to two consecutive non-losing...
