Selecting the Division I and Division II-III-IV Players of the Yt•ar for the 19Y6-97 season wasn't an easy job. But, after reviewing the statistics and evaluating what t•ach player contributed to his respective team, the pictun· became dearer. Mikt• Ensminger, a 6-6. 230-pound center from Oak Hills, won as The Enquirer's I>ivision I Player of the Year with Craig Sanders of McNicholas receiving the honor in Division II-III-IV. "Mike has been our leader and leading scorer the past two seasons," Oak Hilb coach Mike Price said. "He was by far our best shooter, hitting 63 percent from the field." Ensminger, who was named second-team all state, was outstanding from the start. He averaged 23 points and 11 rebounds for a Highlander team that tied Withrow and Aiken for tht• QCC Metro championship and went on to win the Division I sectional title. "During the final1 0 games, Mikt• scored 30 or more points seven times," Price said. 'That's stepping up when the team needed it the most." Sanders, a 6-2, 1~5-pound 1-,JUard who will play at Northern Kentucky University next st•ason,eamed Division II first-team all-state honors and was named Division II Southwest District Player of theYear. During a brilliant four-year career at Batavia and Me Nicholas, Sanders scored more than 1,600 points. He shot 55 percent from the field and 75 percent from the foul line, averaging 24.2 points this season. The competition for 1Jze Enquirer Coaches of the Year was also strong. In Division I, Aiken's Eric'Ibomas edged Dave Hauer of Fairfield, Sycamore's Wally Vickers and Paul Andrews of Princeton, while ( ieny Weisgerber claimed the Division II-III-IV honor over Madeira's Jim Reynolds and Bill Brewer from Roger Bacon. After starting the season at 3-3, Thomas used the 15-day Christmas break to settle the team and tum tht• st•ason around. 'The Falcons won the next 14 regularseason games en route to tying Withrow and Oak Hills for the Queen City Conference Metro championship. They finished the season at 22-4 But that wasn't tht• Falcons' only accomplishment. They went on to claim the Division I sectional and district championships before being eliminated by Springfield North in the regional championship game. Badin's path to the Division II Hnal Four was filled with obstacles, including statl'-ranked powers Springboro, Kettering Alter and Roger Bacon. But Weisgerber and the Rams wert• up to the task, knocking off these powers en route to claiming the sectional, district and regional championships. But they were eliminated by Akron Buchtel in the state semifinals and ended with a 20-6 record.

Badin is the team to watch. Although coach Gerry Weisgerber lost seven seniors to graduation, the Rams' play during the summer impressed the league's coaches. · And, it would be a mistake overlooking McNicholas, a team known for its tough man-to-man defense and standout guard Craig Sanders.

MIAMI VALLIEY CONFERENCE Batavia will count on sophornore Ryan Ogletree (right). North College Hill is once again the team to beat, according to the coaches. But Batavia is not far behind. The Trojans won the championship the last year, but there should be stiff competition in the balanced league. · . Twelve-year coach Ralph Kemphaus of North College Hill is cautiously optimistic about his teams chances in ' the ieague. "We lose our top three scorers from last year and have no proven scorers," Kemphaus said, "but this is · the tallest team I have coached." North College Hill's height advantage could be the decisive factor in the short league. The Trojans have four players taller tnan 6-foot-4. Batavia was 15-7 last season, it's best record. in 23 years. It finished fourth in the league and returns its top ·two scorers: Seth Layman (18.1 ppg) · and Ryan Ogletree (17.2 ppg). "The team developed a terrific . chemistry last year," Batavia coach _l,.anny McManis said. One of the big surprises in the ·league could be first-year participants Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy. The Eagles have 11 seniors including Derrick Harper (20 ppg, 8 rpg).

POLL··

·Woodward 1st, but Withrow ready to grab spot -

BY DAVE SCHUITE Enquirer contributor

Coaches say Eugene Land (above) and Roger Bacon will rise above ltheir area competition in Division 11-111-IV.

Woodward ended Withrow's two-year run atop The Enquirer's preseason Division I poll, but Withrow is in position to take the top spot should Woodward lose early. Woodward collected 20 of the 33 first-place votes to take the No. I spot; Withrow was 27 points behind in second; and Aiken was third. Roger Bacon was the runaway winner in the Division II-III-IV poil with 12 fir~t-place votes. McNicholas was second, and Kings 1was third. ' Although Woodward lost two starters, Demetrius Wilson and Quinton Davis, it returns a veteran team that includes sharp'shooting guard Michael Peek, point guard Maurice Williams and Sylvester Allen. "We have eight seniors, which is_ the most since I took over in 1989," Woodward coach Jim Leon said. "We have great depth, and I'm excited aboutthat. We'll play nine to 10 guys in most games." Woodward's hold on No. 1 may be tenuous. The Bulldogs play in three out-of-town tournaments against nationally ranked opponents. Two of the games ar:e scheduled to be televised, one on ESPN and the other on SportsChanner Withrow, ranked No.1 in the 1994-95 and 1995-96 preseason polls, is a team capable of taking over the top spot arid holding it. ''The No. 2 ranking just show,~

the respect coaches have for our program," Withrow coach George Jackson said. Rodney Crawford and Brandon Rodgers, both three-year starters, will lead Withrow, -but the key player may be Ty Shine, a 5-11 senior guard who transferredfrom Georgia. ''Ty is playing well, and it's easy to see that the talent is there," jackson said. "He has to learn to play with intensity and give it 100 percent effort at practices and in games." jackson may be trying to hide Shine. Some who watched him play in the oldPHSL preview last Friday at Aiken predicted Shine may be one of the two best players in

Cincinnati and a Division. prospect. Aiken may also challt~nge for the top spot in the poll. First-year coach Eric Thomas will rely on standouts Janerio Spurlock, LaMarque Ward, Lonnie Berry and Antonio Broadnax. · "At some point in th<: season we will be good," Thomas said. "Right now we're not there, and the No. 3 ranking may be a little high for a team that went 10-10 last season." For the second conSf:'cutive season, Roger Bacon was ranked No. 1 in the preseason Division II-III-IV poll. · . "We didn't deserve the ranking last year," coach Bill Brewer said. "We started three sophomores, and

it put a lot of pressure on them." Well, how about this year, coach: "We haven't done anything yet and the kids have to prove them selves," Brewer said. ''There's heei too much hype, and they no\V hav< to produce." · Eugene Land, a 6-7 center whc averaged 18 points, nine rebound; and five blocked shots a game Ias1 season, should trigger an explosiv< Spartan offense that also include~ juniors Brandon Mcintosh and Brian Schaefer. McNicholas coach Jerry Doerg· er said he was shocked at the Rock ets' No. 2 ranking. "Who in hell put us there?' Doerger said. ''I'm qptimistic bu1 we I_ost four senior:\'~:tb_..r·ee w.hG started." ' What Doerger failed ·._ ,:mentjon was the return of Craig S~nder§, 2 6-2 guard who averaged 1~points, eight rebounds and three 'ssist_s, along with James Sheeh ·.. (io points, and six rebounds). ~--. 1 "I feel good about the soph'o· mores, anq we should have some depth," Doerger said. "But Alter and Roger Bacon are the teams to beat in the GCLNorth." Chad Welday (16 points and 10 rebounds) and Nick Woods (10 pointS) are two legitimate reasons why Kings was voted the No.3 in the poll. . "We played in several summe1 leagues against the bigger schooE and did well," Kings coach MikE Stevens said. "If it all comes together, and we take care of the ball, we :II 1 be all right." c

The rest of the conference is still gunning lor Hughes. The Big Red, defending conference champions, was picked to win again this season. Anwar Cooper, a 6-foot-6, 230pound center, is one of the many reasons Hughes is expected to successfully defend its title. Junior Randy Larkin (6-5, 230) and Abe Hutchinson (6-2, 175) will also find success in the middle. However, when the coaches voted, few realized that Winton Woods had Derrick Miller, a 6-8, 200 pound center, who transfered to Winton Woods from Lakota.

He's re-installing the pressure approach and has the kind of team to make it thrive.

~ Top returning players: Anwar Cooper (1 oppg, 8 rpg) ~ Outlook: First·year coach Fred Tudor (formerly at Wyaming) inherits a team loaded with spee.d and height, including Anwar Cooper; a 6-6 center. Randy Larkin, Abe Hutchinson and Scott Keys will fill the forward positions with Stewart Owens taking ov-er at point guard. "We have good size, depth and quickness," Tudor said. "But them kids face the task of adapting to a new coach and a new sys-

tem."

son's 15-7 mark was the team's best in 14 years. It may get only better this season. Adam Norwell is one of the top players in the conference, and Joey Isgro and Matt Sinkovich can shoot outside well enough to keep defenses from collapsing on NorwelL

entucky routs yracuse The Associated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Derek Anderson scored a career-high 25 points as No. 8 Kentucky turned the rematch of last April's NCAA championship game into a Iaugher with an 87-53 rout of No. 12 Syracuse on Thursday night in the Great Alaska Shootout. Jamaal Magloire added 16 points for the Wildcats (1-1), who handed the Orangemen their worst loss in 33 years and the worst loss ever under coach Jim Boeheim. Otis Hill had 17 points and .a game-high 16 rebounds for the Orangemen (1-1). Syracuse forward Todd Burgan, playing while appealing a seven-game suspension imposed for viol(!ting student conduct rules, scored 3 points. Magloire, Jared Prickett and Ron Mercer each pulled done eight rebounds for Kentucky. The Wildcats gave Syracuse the thrashing expected last April, when Kentucky won the national championship .with a 76-67 victory over the Orangemen. While that game was much closer than expected, Kentucky's suffocating defense and crisp passing had the Orangemen on their heels from the outset this time. Leading by 22 points at halftime, the Wildcats _pushed their lead to 38 points late in the second half, long after most of the starters had been pulled by Kentucky coach Rick Pitino. Kentucky took the lead for good three minutes into the' game on Nazr Mohammed's layup, which ignited a 21-7 run over the next six minutes that put the Wildcats in control. The Orangemen closed to 32-24 with four minutes left in the half before Anderson made consecutive 3-pointers and Edwards and Mer. cer hit jumpers ih a 10-0 run. Anderson was 4-for-6 from 3. point range and finished the first half with 17 points. Kentucky's full-court press forced Syracuse into 13 turnovers in the first half, and the Wildcats' ·defense continually had the Oran. gemen making poor shot selections. Syracuse made only 1 of 11 3-point attempts and shot 30 percent from the field.

Women P.. North Carolina State 104, Syracuse 69, at San Juan, P.R. - Jennifer Howard scored 31 points and Chasity Melvin had 28 to lead 13th-ranked North Carolina State to a. victory over Syracuse. Howard didn't go to the freethrow line once all night in amass~ ing her game-high point total which included 9 of 16 3-point shots. North Carolina State virtually had the game won in the first half, leading by 57-38.

Moeller beats Harrison; No. 1 Oak Hills is next BY BEN WALPOLE

Enquirer Contributor ~-flf·- Lf7

Moeller's dream season continued on Tuesday in the Division I sectional tournament at Miami University's Millett Hall. Six free throws during the fmal 29 seconds, four by Mike Monserez, gave the Crusaders a 64-56 victory 9ver Harrison on Thursday night in a boys Division I sectional tournament game. Moeller advanced to the semifinals against No. 1 seeded Oak Hills at 7:30p.m. Tuesday. Moeller was picked to finish last in the Greater Catholic League South. Why? Four seniors graduated, and three junior varsity players who were expected to contribute decided to skip the season to concentrate on football. But the Crusaders, starting three sophomores, responded with the league championship and Tuesday's victory. "This team just finds a way to win," Kremer said after the Cru~ saders rallied for their 13th victory. "Every kid in the programhas found his role." Behind sophomore Jeremy Duncan's 11 first-half points, Moeller took a 36-27 halftime lead. But Harrison came on strong with a 15-6 run during the first 10 minutes of the second half to take a. 45-42 lead. Senior Ricky Bell then took over, scoring 10 points down the stretch to clinched the victory. Another key was free-throw shooting with Moeller making 21-of-27. "We're fortunate to have won tonight," Kremer said. "I don't think we played with the emotion that it takes to win big games."

The 1996-97 Varsity Basketball season was one of surprises- mostly pleasant ones. The team was picked to finish last in the preseason G.C.L. polls, due to their lack of experience. Only one starter from the previous season returned: guard Rick BelL The basketball team finished FIRST in the G.C.L. South Division, with a 8-4 record. This was their fourth league title in the past five years. The Crusaders led the G.C.L. in team free throw

shooting, at 77%. Their overall record was 13-9. One of the high points of the -season was winning the Ohio Valley Christmas Tournament, in Wheeling, West Virginia. Seniors Adam Dant and Rick Bell were members of the First-Team All-G.C.L. Selected for the Second Team were sophomores Mike Monserez and Jeremy Duncan. Congratulations to Coach Kremer and his players for another excellent basketball year.
