Greatest Beechwood Basketball Team

I know their tradition has not been great over a long time. But what would say was the best team in Beechwood history?

Sadly for BW there aren't a lot of choices. I remember them being solid in the early 80s. I'd guess last year's team, though, may take that crown.

Totally agree. :thumb:

1968. They beat two very good teams in the 34th District tournament in Holmes and then Holy Cross, before losing to CovCath in the finals.

I saw that team play (Larry Miller was the star of that team if I remember correctly) and last year's team was much, much better!

[Reality Check]

I would have to say last years team. I think they had the most wins in school history last year and their schedule included big schools and not just the "A" schools. Last year was a nice year for the Tigers.

I think the year with Michael Romes has to be up there. He has beaten the Mt St Joe scoring record as a junior. Michael Romes' senior season they were good.

I agree, last year has to be at the top of the list. But there is a good chance last year's team will be surpassed in the very near future. This year will be a bit of a transition season. But the two years after that, Beechwood is going to have some very good size and talent. Their front line in two years will likely all be 6'5"+. If one of their good young guards can work himself into an outside scoring threat, they will be very good.

While I have not witnessed the incoming freshman class I did hear good things about talent and size. The sophomore class has talent as well.

 

I'd back off of Vocke until he proves he can shoot.
