West Union School is proud to be participating in Throwback Thursday where we can honor our rich Dragon heritage.
For the first time in the history of the Southern Hills League the Dragons won the championship with an undefeated record of 11-0. The undisputed league champs had an overall record of 19-4. This outstanding team provided great excitement for the students, parents, and the community.
Reflecting on the season Coach Fossitt stated that there are three outstanding memories: the best quarter was the first played at Lynchburg, as we outscored them 32-6; the best outside scoring game was against Manchester, where we scored six three-point goals on the way to a score of 88-50; and finally, defeating Belpre to the District Tournament Championship.
The top scorers on the team were Craig Campbell and Blaine Roush. Campbell led the team with 18 points per game, while Roush averaged 17 ppg. Both were named to the Southeastern Ohio District team, Roush on the first team and Campbell on the second team.
Roush led the team in rebounds with an average of eleven per game., followed by Robby Hawkins with six per game.
In the four post-season tournament games Roush scored 85 points for an average of 22 ppg while Troy Grooms scored 75 points in those games.
John Shelton was named the Most Valuable Player in the Shawnee State Holiday Classic. He came in the game and netted a total of 32 points in two games.
West Union is proud to announce that Archery is coming to WUHS. For any student interested please see Mr.Chitwood or Mrs. White #dragonpride
