Bellevue/Dayton (01/07)

[Uphill Battle]

This one is tomorrow night at Dayton.... Bellevue coming off a 3 point loss to Villa puts them at 2-7, while Dayton off a couple big wins vs Heritage and Silver Grove putting them at 5-4 going into the game....

 

Emotions should be high in this one... Who has the edge?

[iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii]

I'm going to take Dayton in this one. 74 - 59.

Dayton has a very good basketball team they have players contributing everywhere I do not see Bellevue matching up well with any of Daytons players good luck Devils

Which players don't match up well? Give me what you think the match ups will be.

[Clyde]

Will this be a well-attended game since its a neighborhood rivalry?

I don't know what the matchups will be, but I know that Dayton is guard heavy while it has been made a deal of how Bellevue has struggled in guard play and is more post oriented, specifically Young...

I would be very surprised if it isn't...

No doubt about it. The fans will come out in droves as they always have as long as I can remember.

 

My first Dayton/Bellevue game was the first ever All A Classic finals between the two teams in 1980. I was 9 yrs old and it was held on Sunday afternoon down at Bellevue on that old rubber court. All I remember of that game was the Bellevue fans going crazy and it was a packed house. Every Dayton/Bellevue game after that I attended or played in was the same.

 

I think Dayton has too much firepower on offense this year though and will get the Tigers in the first matchup.

I have a question. I don't want to skew the thread in any way, but does Bellevue have that nacho cheese color on the walls? I remember going up there to play (at least I think it was Bellevue) and that had to be the most difficult background I've ever seen. Airballs galore. We called it the NachoCheesePalace!

Yes... Bellevue's gym walls are painted a very distinct yellow....

The end walls are now painted white.

Thats good. Was it done recently? Should be a great improvement. Though I suppose the old walls may have given somewhat of a homecourt advantage...

[the Hulk]

I believe they have a brand new floor this year. But I could be wrong.

[Eta Rho]

I think Dayton gets the W in this one.

[uk-jordan23]

I think Dayton wins this one in a close game, Bellevue's #21 Jones will singlehandledly have to keep them in the game and I dont think that Dayton will have an answer for him.
