Fourth quarter surge earns Electrics first win
PHILO, Ohio – Seven hundred twenty eight days.
That’s how long it’s been since the Philo boys have won a game against a Muskingum Valley League opponent, a 51-38 win over Maysville on February 2nd, 2019.
The team has come within a fingertip’s grasp of multiple wins this season, including two losses where the opponent’s go-ahead score occurred with less than five seconds left in overtime.
Saturday night, the Electrics would have another chance to finally end the drought when they welcomed the 4-10 Crooksville Ceramics to the Power Plant for an MVL inter-divisional matchup.

New Lex girls sprint past Morgan; Rosecrans boys open with big win
MCCONNELSVILLE, Ohio – The last time the Morgan and New Lexington girls teams met, it took a half-court buzzer beater from Sophia Smith to put the game away for the Raiders.
But that game was nearly a year ago, and these teams have developed into two very talented squads who, some may say, are the favorites to win the MVL Small School division.
The Panthers came in to today with the unexpected advantage of actually playing games this year. Morgan has gone through multiple quarantine periods and postponements, meaning that Saturday was their very first time taking the court in the new season.
