Riders Grab #1 seed in Wooster District

It wasn't really a surprise, but it's nice to see, and a feather (albeit a small feather) in the cap of Coach Slaughter, his staff and the players...the Orrville boys basketball team has been tabbed as the #1 seed in the upcoming Wooster Division III sectional/district tournament.

Here's the unofficial, official bracket.  Again, big thanks to OhioBasketball.net for getting this up in such short order.

The Riders will open play on Friday March 5th at 6pm against the winner of the Black River/Norwayne game.  From there, assuming a win, the Riders would play the winner of the (6)Northwestern/(8)Tuslaw and (11)Columbia/(3)Hillsdale game on Monday March 8th.

The bottom half of the bracket features #2 seed Triway, #4 seed Smithville and #5 seed Loudonville.

Let's all digest the bracket and talk about it as we approach tourney time.  For now, one question from my end....when's the last time an Orrville team was the #1 seed in a sectional?  I have to think it's been at least 10 years.  Anyone know for sure?
