Home court advantage gone overboardSun, March 8, 2009 @ 10:42PM This season in both Tiers of the Inter-Tri County League, as well as a few schools in other conferences, a decided advantage went to the home team. My crack research department, consisting of myself, estimated that around 70 percent of the time the home team won when it came to contests in our coverage area this year, including games that featured ITCL Tier 1 vs. Tier 2 opponents. Who has the biggest home court advantage? Here's a list that I've weeded down to what I feel is the top 5. Be sure to vote in our new poll and let everyone know what you think. 1. Sebring - The Trojans arguably have the greatest basketball tradition in the area. It's an intimidating thing for opposing teams. Sebring at home was a different team not just this year, but for really as long as I can remember. Even in years when the team is down, Sebring is an extremely difficult win at home.
