THE FUTURE•.• 2003-2004 will be an opportunity for the Moeller wrestling program to gain a state championship. St. Edward will graduate many big guns leaving the opportunity for a Moeller State Title. With 11 starters returning, including a state champion and state placer, the team should have confidence going into the 2003-04 season. There will be no short cuts. Current starters will need to work hard on the mat and the weight room or the group of talented younger wrestlers could make significant gains in both mat experience and in strength to pass them up. The Junior High had 11 state qualifiers! The schedule will once again be tough enough for those individuals who want to become Moeller's next state champion. The team qualified for the State duals for the third time in history. A new tournament will be added to go with the second National CIT and the SWOWCA Tournament before Christmas. The usual dual meet powers Elder, St. Xavier, and Lakota East are back on the schedule with a return trip to St. Edward for a quad in late January. The competition will be there but it will be up to the individuals to determine the level of success they will achieve.

WHAT YOU CAN DO IN THE SPRING/SUMMER TO MAKE YOUR WRESTLING IMPROVE IN THE WINTER (in order of importance): 1. Make the Ohio Cadet or Junior National Team • Qualify at a Regional Tournament** or Ohio State Tournament. • Includes 5 day training camp at St. Ed's with best wrestlers in Ohio • National Tournament in Fargo, ND (#1 college recruiting tournament) • Practice with best kids in Ohio and compete against the best in the Nation 2. · Wrestle in Tournaments • Tournaments are almost every weekend now until mid-summer • Freestyle, Folkstyle, Greco- all wrestling styles will help you improve 3. Cincinnati Wrestling Club • Tuesday and Thursday nights (6:30pm-8:30pm); Ends May 29th 4. Weight Lifting • . Starts March 19, M-W-F (4:30-5:45 except Wed. after school) • Attendance and progress will be charted 5.

THE COLUrt.BUS DISPATCH

So Curtis McGhee won't win a state wrestling title tonight. That he eot this far is remarkable. The Brookhaven v.'Testler's unliltely titl.e run ended last night when he was pinned wi.th a minute left in his 189-pound Division I match by Cincinnati Moeller's Ryan Lul.tens in the championship semifinals. It had been an e::~ectab1ing duel, , with McGhee traCingS~ 7 after one period and 12-8 at the time of the pin. Unlili:e most vn:estlem at the state tournament, McGhee didn't spend his youth developing his sl.dlls. He took up the sport only last year to stay in shape after football. To say he wru; raw is an undemt;;n.t0ment. McGhee has dabbled in boxing, and he used to open his matches in a boxing stance. Even now, he wears boxing shoes on the mat. "They just make me feel right," he said. "I have some reeular (wrestling) shoes. They're just coll.ectins dust." Then there's his warm~up shorts, which he hasn't washed since the season began. "I'm a little superstitious," he said. McGhee won his first match yesterday with a first-period pin of Nate Hough-Snee of Mentor. It was his 11th pin of the postseason. McGhee still has much to wrestle for today. No

Brookhaven wrestler has finished better dtan fourth. He can finish as high as third. f!c~erll'lgl:on's

mlxcQ' dCJ!f came dose to havin3 four wrestlers in the semifinals but manaeed to send only Josh Home.

Panthers pounce on o.·l Tigers 18 pOlfl • t S, key QT St ea1

WI•th

By Tom Groeschen The Cincinnati Enquirer

Elder threw its proud basketball pedigree at 20-0 Withrow, and the Tigers ultimately froze in the Panthers' Greater Catholic League headlights. Elder upset Withrow, the No. 1 team in the Enquirer's Division I area coaches poll, 60-55 in overtime in a sectional tournament opener at UC's Shoemaker Center on Friday night. The loss sent the Tigers, the state's No. 2-ranked Division I team, home with a 20-1 record. For Elder, which brought an 11-9 record and last-place GCL South finish into the game, it was vindication for itself and a league that considers itself Ohio's best. 'This ranks up there with our big upsets, but we think the schedule we play gets us ready for games like Elder's Thomas SaJ1der (left) tips the ball away from Withrow's Darral this," Elder coach Joe Schoenfeld, Payton Friday at UC's Shoemaker Center.

It's Parcells and Glenn again .~ thls time with Co Green Bay gets draft pick in trade ·for wide receiver The Associated Press

IRVING, Texas- Of the fonuer players coach Bill Parcells could have brought to join him in Dallas, Terry Glenn might have been least likely. Instead, he's the first Parcells traded for the receiver he once derisively called "she," giving up an undisclosed draft pick Friday to the Green Bay Packers.

Glenn restructured his contract, getting a five-year deal tailored to help the Cowboys' salary cap. TI1e Cowboys also re-signed offensive lineman FlozellAdams to a $25 million, five-year contract. His cap figure for the upcoming season could be as low as $2.5 million. Parcells and Glenn have patched up their relationship since Parcells' infan1ous insult "Not only are they on good tenus, they never should have been separated," Glerin's agent, Jin1my Gould, said. 'The 'she' comment was backed up by a true friendship right away." Parcells, then with New Eng-

land, made Glenn the seventh pick· of the 1996 draft, and he responded with 90 catches for 1,132 yards and six touchdowns. Parcellsleftforthe New York Jets, and injuries and off-field troubles limited Glenn to just one more 1,000-yard season. MORE TRADES: StLouis traded runGlenn ning back Trung . Canidate to Washington for guard David I.overne and a fourth-round draft pick Canidate had 595 yards rushing and receiving in 2000 but totaled only 79

yards last season. REDSKINS: Washington signed free agent guard Randy Thomas. A four-year starter with the New York Jets, Thomas agreed to a sevenyear, $28 million deal with a$7 mil-· lion signing bonus. 111!1 Philadelphia traded cornerback Al Harris and a fourth-round picl< in this year's draft to Green Bay for a second-round draft pick. Harris started 21 games since joining the Eagles off waivers from Tampa Bay in 1998. In :five seasons, he had 171 tacldes and seven interceptions and knocked down 41 passes. II Tight end Mark Campbell was

traded by Cleveland to Buffalo for a middle-round draft pick in 2004. Campbell had 46 catches. in 46 games with the Browns. EMMITT'S OPTIONS: Emmitt Smith began his search for a new team after being released Thursday by Dallas after 13 seasons. "Let'sjustsaythere'sbeensome confirmed interest from teams," Werner Scott, Smith's business manager, said Friday. "I think he hasagoodfeelingofthe things he'd like to look at in terms of where his next place of employment will be." BILLS: Linebacker Jeff Posey agreed to tenus with Buffalo after playing for Houston last season.

Tenus were not released. · Posey, a five-year veteran, was _cfedited with 60 tackles, eight '·sacks and two forced fumbles last year: He also had one interception. PATRIOTS: The t~am re-signed long snapper-borne Paxton, who would have been a restricted free agent Paxton, 24,joined the Pattiots in 2000 and has appeared in 51 consecutive games, including three playoff games. STEELERS: Backup tight end Jerame Tuman ·signed a three-year contract. He :finished the last two seasonsasastarterafterinjuriesto Mark Bruener and had 12 catches for 159 yards in four seasons.

in Shawn," said Brian Mackler, Barber's agent: "Shawn is going to Kansas City and St. Louis, then Cincinnati." Frazier, hired by Lewis in January, was the Eagles' defensive backs coach for four seasons. "It's possible," Lewis said when asked about a Barber visit Spikes, designated by the Bengals as their transition player, did not return calls Friday. Neither did his agents, Todd France and Lonnie Cooper. , Barber and Spikes are considered two of the top four linebackers in free agency. Both play on the outside. But the transition tag, which allows the Bengals to match any offer sheet Spikes would receive while guaranteeing him a one-year salary of $4.85 million in Cincinnati, was expected to subdue initial interest , in him. Chicago's Roosevelt Colvin and Indianapolis' Mike Peterson, neither of whom has a binding designation tag, are expected to attract more attention early in free agency. Barber, at 6 feet 2, 237 pounds, played his first four seasons with the Washington Redskins. · , The Bengals have at least one other free agent visit scheduled. Former Ravens and Texans return specialist Jenuaine Lewis will be in Cincinnati Monday. He and Marvin Lewis were together in Baltimore. The Bengals also are expected next week to entertain Eagles guard Doug Brzezinski. At 6-4,305, he has been a top reserve for the Eagles after starting 16 games in as a rookie in 1999.

MJ not loo "ng for sentimental tribute today

NASCAR Winston Cup preview

00 From youngsters to wily veterans, all are optimistic as sea~on begins

Says he'll take reserve role for fans' sake

The Associated Press The Associated Press

DAITONABEACH, Fla.- Young guns or old hands, it doesn't matter; the 2003 Winston Cup season is going to be a shootout. With Daytona 500 qualifying set for today, it seems just about every driver in the series considers himself a contender to take the season title from Tony ~tewart. "I guess everybody is saying the same thing right now: 'We can win a race and finish in the top 10,' "four-time champion Jeff Gordon said. "Heck, I'm sure they believe it. With the way this thing is shaping up, the competition is going to be even closer than it was last ·year." In 36 races lastyear, 18 drivers. won at least once, including five for the first The Associated Press/HAROLD HINSON time. No positions in the top 10 in the points standings were decided until the Tony Stewart, meeting media in January, has big goals for this season: "I just want to defend my final race. championship, win more than the ~hree races we won last year, and have some fun."

Strong finishes for upstarts Stewart is hoping 2003 will be a "very uneventful, unemotional year," "I just want to defend my championship, win more than the three races we won last year, and have some fm1," Stewart said. Despite· all that drama, perhaps the biggest story of 2002 was the continuing saga of the "young guns." Stewart started the trend in 1999 at age 28, winning an unprecedented three races and finishing fourth in the points. Twentysomethings Dale Eamhardt}r. and MattKenseth beciune winners and immediate stars in 2000, as <lid Kevin Harvick in 2001. Last season, it was Ryan Newman and Jimmie Johnson who niised the bar as rookies. Newman, 24, won once, finished in the top 10 in 22 of 36 races, was fourth in points and won rookie-of-the-year honors. Johnson; 27, won three times, had 21 top-10 finishes and became the first ' rookie in modem times to lead the points before winding up sixth. "Some of it is coming in with really good ·equipment and really good teams," said Sterling Marlin, a 45-yearold whO led the points for 25 weeks last year and was still in the title battle when he crashed late in the season and broke a vertebra in ·his neck. Marlin was replaced by 26-year-old Jamie McMurray, who won in his second Winston Cup start McMurray and Casey Mears, 24, willjoinMarlin as fulltime teammates this season.

"I know how good my teammate (Newman) is and some of those other guys, too, but some of us old guys still have some life in us." Wallace, whose Penske Racing team is switching from Ford to Dodge, has added motivation after failing to win a race last year. He won at least once in each of the preceding 16 seasons. The biggest driver change this year is Rudd switching !ides with Elliott Sadler. Ruddjoins the Wood Brothers; Sadler goes to Robert Yates Racing. "It's a great opportunity for me," Sadkr said.

All of entries now must fit 18 of 32 templates, meaning the general shape of most of the cars will be the same. But Doug Ducliru·dt, general manager for GM P~cing, said the fabricators still can find an edge working on. the areas of the cars not dictated by the socalled "common templates." Those areas include the front and rear fascias, · · the hood, the wheel openings, the sides of the car, excluding the doors, and the window trim lines, excluding the wind- · shield. · 'The brand characteristics will still be there. The fans will still be able to tell a Dodge from a Chevrolet or a Ford," said John Fernandez, new head of Dodge Motorsports. . VIrtually. all the drivers agree, · though, that the new aerodynamic rules will help even the competition further. "Just look at thenumbers," said Kyle Petty, driver and CEO of the Petty Enterprises team. "In testing at Daytona, there was about three-tenths of a second between fifth fu>.d 30th."

ATlANTA- Michael Jordan is flattered by the gestures of young Al!,Star. teammates Tracy McGrady and Allen Iverson, who offered him their starting spots. "It's respect for the elders, if you want to look at it in that sense," Jordan said Saturday, a day before his 14th and final All· Star appearance - and the first as a reserve. That doesn't mean Jordai1 has changed his mind· <md is going to take their offers. lie reiterated Saturday he'll be happy coming off tl1e bench. "And even if the individual doesn't accept it, it's just a good gesture to do that. Just to come up with tl1atideashowsrespect not just for Michael}ordau, but for the game," said}ordan, who turns 40 this month. McGrady, the league's leading scorer at 30.4 points a game, said again Saturday he will try one last time to persuade Jordan to take his spot in the Eastern Conference lineup. "Probably collectively we are going to come up and try to do something. Whether \Ve can get him the start, we're still going to try. It's not a dead i;:;sue," McGrady said. Jordan, who has a 20.2'point All-Star scoring average, counters that the fans spoke when they voted for the starter%, and that's the way it should b'". 'The reason that I wouldn't accept it, and I don't want to accept it, is because it says a lot for them to go out and livo up to what people expect of them,. which is why they were voted as the starting five," Jordan said.·

Repeat Dunk· King Jason Richardson's bounce pass off Carlos Boozer's forehead was the highlight of the af. temoon. His final throw-down in the punk contest was the perfect ending to the night. Richardson had the most dynamic day of any of the partici-. pants in All-Star Saturday. Richardson led all scorers with 31 points in the rookie game, ending it by hitting a 3pointer after he bounced a pass to himself off Boozer. The Golden State guard then became the first repeat winner of the dunk contest in 15 years. Richardson finished things with a spectacular dunk, coming in along the baseline, catching his lob pass, putting the ball between his legs and switching it from his right hand to his left before slamming it through. Peja Stojakovic of Sacramento also was a repeat winner, taking the 3-point shootout for the second straight year by defeating the same player he beat in the final round ·of last year's shootout, Wesley Person. Richardson's Golden State teammate, Gilbert Arenas, scored 30 points and was picked as the MVP as the soph· omores dominated the second half of their 132-112 win over the rookies.

·Earnhardt charges to Shootout victory Enquirer news services

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Dale Earnhardt]r.poweredpast]effGordoii five laps from the end Saturday and held off the four-tim~ Winston Cup champ to win the Budweiser Shootout. Earnhardt appeared able to wheel his red No.8 Chevrolettothefrontanytime he wanted, staying at or near the lead throughout the 70-lap event af J:)aytona International Speedway. Earnhardt was already considered the favorite to win the Daytona 500 pole today. His perfmmance in the first Shootout under the lights didn't hurt that speculation. With Gordon, a two~time Shootout winner, leading at the start of lap 66, Earnhardt took the outside line on the high-banked 2¥2-mile oval and charged to the front. "I can't remember, there was so much happening the last two laps," Earnhardt said when asked about his move to the lead. 'That's a tough win." It was only the second time ~Earnhardt has qualified for the non-points race featuring the previous year's Winston Cup pole winners and former Shootout champions. Last year, he fin. ished second to Tony Stewart.

Earnhardt, who started last in the lineup determined by a blind draw, began to move forward by diving to the bottom of the banking and making a three-wide pass. He took the lead for the first time on the 16th of 70 laps, · passing the Ford of Kurt Busch, who had led from lap five. Under a new format, the 19 starters raced for 20 laps before a 10-mihute intermission, during which tl1eir crews were allowed to make changes to the car. After the brealr, Earnhardt found himself in a battle with Matt Kenseth, and the pair exchanged the lead five times before Gordon, who started just· ahead of Earnhardt at the rear of the field, raced to the front. -'I was looking good with :five to go," Gordon said. "But]unior is so s1J·ong on these restrictor-plate tracks." ·n1e plates, a safety precaution; are used at Daytona and Talladega to keep speeds under 200 mph. SURPRISE NO. 25: Joe Nemechek had tlie fastest speed at Saturday's final. practice. "Somebody. better watch out for us,. because we're coming," said Nemechek, who drove his No. 25 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet to a lap at 18[l.l89 mph.

Wrestling preview

Lakotas, Franklin are best in area By Dave Schutte Enquirer contributor

Lakota West and Lakota East, each loaded with returning starters and state qualifiers, were voted the teams to beat in the Division I Enquirer's preseason coaches wrestling polls. Franklin edged Purcell Marian for the No. 1 spot in the Division II-III poll. The following is a look at each of the ranked teams 1. lakota West: Although state champion Matt Mcintire has graduated, coach Scott Fetzer has eight returning letter-winners to build the team around. Zach Flake, a state runner-up at 130 pounds last year, will be joined by Max Dean (committed to Indiana) and Matt Neal along with Andrew Monk. 2. lakota East: Competition is fierce with 68 wrestlers going for the 14 starting positions. Coach Bob Letessa will build the program around returning state qualifiers Tim Sizemore and Tony Johnson. Many of the remaining weight classes remain up for grabs with at least three wrestlers competing in each. 3. Harrison: The Wildcats are void of returning state qualifiers and coach Chad Dennis must rely on an untested group of wrestlers. Wesley Taylor could dominate in the heavyweight division but the jury is still out on the supporting cast. 4. St. Xavier: The Bombers return four state qualifiers and appear to have enough talent and depth to compete for the No. 1 , spot in the poll. 路 Coach Dick Murphy will build the team around Dan Gallagher, Dan Malinowski and Chad Linz, all of whom were Enquirer All-Stars last season. "Getting off to a good start will be important to this ' team," Murphy said. "We wrestle Moeller and la Salle the first week." 5. Fairfield: The Indians, under coach Ron Masanek, have posted 37 consecutive winning seasons and this shouldn't be an exception. Despite losing three wrestlers who placed at state, Masanek returns veterans and state qualifiers Todd Spenceley and Blair Williams. 6. Moeller: The Crusaders of coach Jeff Gaier return two state qualifiers in Chris Wessel and Brent Good. Ryan Lukens is also expected to provide leadership for a Crusader team that is inexperienced but tournament tested during summer meets. 7. Elder: A lack of numbers will force veteran coach Dick McCoy to rely on several sophomores to record a 13th consecutive winning season. Jim Schultz, Elliott Spence and Chris Chambers should be the top wrestlers. Jeff Mundy, out last season with an injury, is back and should contribute. 8. Colerain: The Cardinals turned the comer last season and should be a much improved during the current campaign. Coach Rick Stegmaier will build the team around standouts Ron Demaris, Tyler Brewer, Joe Duffy, Jason Jones, Tyler Moody and Bill Demaris 9. Oak Hills: Josh Love, Bryan Rengering, Ross Brater and Dave Fischer are the mainstays of coach Ken Brater's team. 10. Hamilton: The Big Blue developed into an outstanding team late last season and veteran coach Tim Brashear looks for the

momentum to carry over into this year. State qualifiers lan Emmons and Joe Gadd are the top returnees. Support should come from Dan Kist, Tony Lovins, Tony Santos and Chris Hamblin.

Divisions 11-111 1. Franklin: Major college prospect Matt Franklin is one of many returning starters for a Wildcat team that scored 13 points at last year's state meet. Besides Franklin, coa~h Wendel Donathan will look to Justin Blevins, Mike Quigley, Zach Katris, John Elam, Justin Harris, David Snowden and Adam Sweeney. 2. Purcell Marian: First year coach Cliff Pope inherited a Cavalier team rich in tradition and with 12 returning letter-winners. Bart Craver, Kevin Tighe and Eric McMullen are the mainstays. 3. Ross: This could be one of coach Rich Dunn's best teams with state qualifiers Brad Schearer and Zach Kanta returning. "We'll have experienced wrestlers in every weight class except 103 and 112," Dunn said. "We had some untimely injuries last year the week of the league tournament which we possibly could have won." Dan Lee, out last season with a shoulder injury, is back. Three-time district qualifier Ronnie Phelps and sectional champ Alex Siemer will also contribute. 4. Madeira: Replacing state champion Kris Kuykendall will be a tough task for coach Bob Keams. But with eight returning letterwinners, the Mustangs should field another strong team. Sophomore Kevin Crowley and senior Tony Rohe will be joined by Chris Davidson, Wayne Memmott, Drew Campbell, Martz Zaczek, Joe Gettinger and Zach Rochon. 5. Reading: Seniors Brian Wilson (sixth at state meet), Jason Witt (state qualifier) and BJ. Mages, all with 30-or-more wins last season, will be the foundation coach Dick Engel builds around. "The success of the football team hurt us in that the three juniors we were counting on didn't come out for the team," Engel 路 said. Engel also pointed toward sophomores Derek Mages (31 victories last year) and John Bogucki as other top wrestlers. 6. Edgewood: This could be the most successful season in years. 路路 Coach Jim Conniff will look to two-time state qualifier Matt McSorley, sectional champion Josh Glancy and veteran Tom An- . glin. 7. Roger Bacon: The Spartans will be an improved team with 11 experienced wrestlers in the lineup. Veterans back include Scott Bien, Steve Brunsman, Dan Rieber, Nick -Owens, Jake Hauck, Alex Roehm and Mike Riga. 8. McNicholas: Former Turpin and Glen Este standout Tim Allen is optimistic that the Rockets will be an improved team. This outlook is based on the return of Purdue-bound Will Kindel and Alex Kammontsos, along with eight other letter-winners. 9. New Richmond: Nick Randolph and Zac Fuller are two of 12 returning letter-winners who could propel the Lions to challenge Clinton Massie and Western Brown for the Southern Buckeye Conference championship.

10. Western Brown: All league performer Chris Scheniderwill be the foundation of a Bronco program that saw 73 wrestlers contesting for the starting positions.

Division I wrestling

Surging St. Xavier earns district title behind seniors ' Lakota East 1

finishes 2nd By Tom Groeschen The Cincinnati Enquirer

WILMINGTON- St. Xavier cruised rather quietly through wrestling's regular season but has unleashed the heavy ammo during postseason tournaments. The Bombers, written off by some after losing dual meets to Greater Catholic League rivals Elder and Moeller this season, continued their recent surge by winning the Division I district title at Wtlmington High School on Saturday night. St. Xavier scored 130.0 points to edge Lakota East (127.5) for the title. Dick Murphy, in his 29th year as St. X coach, said the district title was his program's first since 1990. Dayton Carroll was third at 119.0, followed by Elder (101.0) andEnquirerregularseason poll champion Lakota West (91.5). "What we've got is a strong senior class that has just been incredible," Murphy said. "We've got five guys going to state." St. X admittedly doesn't have the top-to-bottom depth of teams such as Elder, Moeller and the two Lakotas, but its Fab Five seniors are strong enough to bring big points in tournaments. The first shot was fired last weekend, when St. X beat Elder and Moeller to win its first sectional title since 1994. The St. X state placers are

led by Dan Malinowski, who won the 171-pound district titie. Other St. Xscorers Saturday were Lee Carraher (145), Dan Gallagher (160), Brian Schweer (189) and Rick Bolte (215). St. X's best state finish was fourth place in 1978. "If you get at least three guys that can score up there, you can finish that high," Murphy said. "We'll see what happens." The top four placers in each weight class advanced to the state tournament Thursday through Saturday at Ohio State's Schottenstein Center. BIG MATCH: The match of the night was the final one, with two unbeaten heavyweights in Lakota East's Tony Johnson (34-0) facing Dayton Carroll's Pat Barrentine (33-0). Johnson won a 1().9 thriller, scoring a late takedown to take a 10-7lead and then holding on in the final seconds: The match had a state tournament feel, with fans standing and cheering and other wrestlers and coaches gathered up close to watch. Too close, in fact, as tournament officials had to move the eager bystanders several yards back away from the mats. Both heavies are real threats to win state, and both are decorated national wrestlers.Johnsonwasthenational freestyle champion last summer at the Cadet Nationals. Barrentine is a three-time national champion in GrecoRoman events. "We faced each other twice last summer, and we

werel-1,"Johnsonsaid. 'This is big to beat him. It tells me I have a chance to win a state championship." Barrentine, a senior, finished third at state at 215 pounds last year. Johnson, a Lakota East junior, finished third at state at 275 pounds last year. QUICK KICK: Loveland senior Chris Cook, who beat Lakota East's Matt Dillon 3-2 for the 130.pound district titie, was the all-city kicker last season on the Enquirer Divisions II-VI all-area team. Cook also played defensive back for a Loveland team that went S-3 and made the Division II playoffs. "I consider myself just another football player that wrestles," Cook said. Cook finished fifth at districts last year, just missing the No. 4 spot that would have sent him to the state tournament. 'That was my motivation all year," he said. "I was pretty fired up for this one." STAlE PLACERS: Returning 2002 state placers who will head back to Columbus next week are Lakota West's 140.pound Zach Flake (state runner-up at 130 last year) and 145-pound Max Dean (sixth at 152 pounds last year); Hamilton's 16Q..pound Ian Emmons (fifth at 152 last year); and Lakota East's Johnson. TEAM TOTALS: St. Xavier and Lakota East (five each), Elder (four), and Hamilton, Moeller and Lakota West (three each) will send the most Division I wrestlers upstate next week. Mason and Colerain each will send two.

'· P;en~'s long, 2-rn !i ato,ies for shaky Slugger/at IB in intrasqhad game By John Fay The Cincinnati Enquirer

SARASOTA, Fla. - Wily Mo Pena's day didn't begin very well, but it ended nicely. Pena's first chance as a first baseman - a routine throw from third baseman Wilton Guerrero went past him for an error. But Pena ended the Reds' in- · trasquad scrimmage with a long, two-run homer to left center in the ninth to lift the visitors to a 4-4 tie. Pena, a 21-year-old super prospect, is getting a shot at first base while Sean Casey continues to recover after offseason shoulder surgery. 'That first ball, I was waiting for it, then it hit the ground," Pena said. "I pulled up." Pena did make every other play. "He looked good except for the first one," Reds manager Bob Boone said. "It's his first game there. It's spring training." Pena had an eventful day. In the second inning, he was hit by a pitch from Jose Acevedo. In his second at-bat, he faced Jose Rijo, a fellow Dominican who was in his second year of pro ball the year Pena was born. Rijo told Pena he was throwing him a fastball. "He said, 'Get ready, Wily,'" Pena said. "It was a fastball, but way away." Pena hit a routine fly ball to right He faced John Riedling in the ninth, and Riedling hung a slider. "He did what you're supposed to do with it," Boone said. Pena gets the start today at first when the Reds go to Tampa to play the New York Yankees, the team that traded him to the Reds. 'That will be exciting," Pena said.

State wrestling meet

Two locals win Ohio titles, celebrate with spectators Flake, Lukens take to stands in victory By Dave Schutte Enquirer contributor

COWMBUS - Zach F1ake hugged everyone at courtside before running into the grandstand to celebrate with his parents, Tun and Julie, and numerous supporters. Ryan Lukens was just as excited, jumping into the anns of Moeller coach Jeff" Gaier, before running · into the stands to accept congratulations from his parents, Bill and Mikki. He then grabbed a · cell phone to make a call to California. F1ake, a Lakota West senior, and Lukens, a Moeller junior, won state wrestling championships Saturday with four other Cincinnati area athletes settling for second place before a crowd of 16,000 in the Value City Arena at the Jerome Schottenstein Center. The second-place finishers were St. Xavier senior Dan Malinowski, Hamilton's Ian Emmons, Franklin senior Matt Franklin and Greenfield McClain senior Jorge Conger. . The emotional outburst by F1ake followed a 7-5 decision over Lakewood St. Edward senior Charlie Agozzino in the Division I, 140pound state championship match. F1ake finished the season with a 41-3 record and closed his career 149-27. In the process, he became the school's second state champion, joining Matt Mcintire, who won in 2001 and '02. "I was more nervous this year than last because this was my last chance," said F1ake, who finished second last year. "But I knew there were a lot of people cheering for me, and it helped." More than 30 minutes after defeating Jeremy Clingner from Beavercreek 7-3 in the Division I 189pound match, Moeller's Lukens was still in the clouds knowing he had accomplished the goal of claiming the gold, the same as his older brother,, Nick. "I called my brother (Nick) in California (at Stanford University) to tell him I had won," Lukens said.

The Associated Press/JAY LAPRETE

Hamilton's lan Emmons (right) wrestles with Massillon Perry's Steve Luke during the Division I state wrestling tournament Saturday.

"He was happy and told me he knew I could do it" Nick Lukens won the 2001 state championship as a junior by the same score but failed to place as a senior. Ryan Lukens is the seventh Moeller wrestler to win a state title. St. Xavier's Malinowski fell one second short of winning the Division I 171-pound state championship, losing to Mike Grogan of North Canton Hoover, 5-4 in double overtime. Tied 4-4 after the first overtime, Malinowski had 30 seconds to escape during the 30-second suddendeath period. "I don't know what the clock read when I escaped," Malinowski said. "I was thinking during the overtime that this is my last minute and to give it my all." Emmons also had to settle for the silver, losing to Steve Luke of Massillon Perry, 9-1 in the 160pound Division I class. Luke took a 6-0 lead in the first period and didn't look back. Franklin High senior Franklin was a 2-1loser to Mike Compton of Willard in the l12-pound Division II championship match. With five seconds remaining, Franklin scored what appeared to be a two-point take-down, but the referee ruled he didn't have total control.

"The call was the .right one," Franklin said. "We were both pretty cautious, because you don't want to make a mistake in the championship match." McClain's Conger, third last . year at 119 pounds, took second this year at 125, losing to defending l12 state champion Dustin Schlatter of St. Paris Graham in Division II.
