Nice season, Trotwood. At least it was settled by the teams. We don’t to listen to your mouthy fans p**s and moan about how they got screwed by some refs or babble something involving race. Maybe they’ll shut during hoop season and let the kids play.

I was surprised by the convidence of the Trotwood community leading up to this game. My research led me to believe that TM might be completely overmatched and they were. Gilbert is quick and has nice moves but wasn’t very hard to bring down. The big TM offensive and defensive lines were no match for the warriors physical play.The Warriors held Gilbert to less than 50 yards and Brown had 165 yards and they were co-players of the year?? TM is an up and coming program but they were totally overmatched and the score should had been worse.

I never said that Winton Woods was going to win the state title. I was just shocked the folks around Dayton thought that Trotwood would win that game. I don’t know whats going to happen from one week to the next but I do know what I saw in the Trotwood game. One team punched the other in the mouth and that team was overmatched in speed, power and toughness. I like trotwood cause they mirror Winton Woods in alot of ways and are going to be very good, very quickly.
