  The following years (85) might have been the best overall small school group of 4 teams to be in the final four. Both Wehrle and Van Buren were undefeated and Skyvue and Jackson Center had one loss each. Jackson Center beat Wehrle and Skyvue beat Van Buren in the semis and then Jackson Center beat Skyvue in the finals on a buzzer beater.

  Would that have been the same year that Buckeye Trail lost at state because of missed foul shots?
  
  Also, I miss when Skyvue was in existence, it wasn't the same when we played Monroe Central.

  No, Buckeye Trail lost at state a couple years before and a couple years after the year I am talking about.
  
  Buckeye Trail, Skyvue and Hiland were all very good for about a 6-7 year stretch. Definately some great small school hoops.

  remember the Skyvue win over the Hawks back in the 80's. I think an overtime loss....??? Was it at Steubenville or Athens?? Anyway, the local paper had a photo of Courtney Erb from Hiland just crying his eyes out. Every time I see him on the streets, that's the first thing I think about.

  I think your talking about 1985 when Skyvue beat Hiland in double overtime at Athens in the regional final. The game looked to be won or lost 3 or 4 times by one team or another only to have the other team make a huge play to tie it back up.
  
  In 1984 Skyvue beat Hiland in the districts at Steubenville. That was Charlie Huggins last game. I remember it very well because several of us had attended Charlie's camps as kids. After the game I heard him tell Mitch Hannahs "I guess you boys learned a little too much at camp!"
  
  In 1986 Hiland got their revenge by beating Skyvue in Athens in another nailbiter.

  Those team teams waged some great battles.

  I think they will have trouble replacing Jimmy Jackson(Ohio State committment). I look for Jimmy to be a pretty decent role player for the Buckeyes.
