Indians Come Out On Top InNon-Conference Action Against Pettisville

By: Mitchell Peebles

THE VILLAGE REPORTER

Pettisville 2/15/14The Pettisville

Blackbirds and Wauseon Indians went

to battle in their annual matchup. The

schools are separated by a mere ve

miles, which has only added to the ri-

valry between the two schools through-

out the years. This years renewal of that

rivalry was won by the Indians, as the

Tribe rolled to a 55-27 victory over the

Blackbirds.

Both squads were evenly matchedthrough for the rst half of the opening

quarter, as at the 5:30 mark of the rst

quarter, Pettisville and Wauseon were

tied at four points a piece. The Indians

soon created a bit of separation, scoring

seven straight points to go on top 13-

6. It looked as if the Indians were going

to stop Pettisville from scoring for the

remainder of the rst period, that was

until Pettisville senior Austin Dykstra

nailed a 15 footer with only ve seconds

remaining in the opening quarter to

end the Blackbird scoring drought, and

make the score 13-8 in favor of the Tribe

at the end of the rst stanza.

The spark at the end of the rst quar-

ter gave Pettisville some momentum as

the second period of play began. At the

6:26 mark of the second quarter, Black-

bird junior Tate Kauffman drained a

three point shot to bring Pettisville with-

in two of the Tribe, 15-13. However, that

Blackbird momentum would not last for

very long, as in the nal six minutes of

the rst half, Noah Castle and Kris Boy-

sel would take over the contest, leading

the Indians on a 15-2 run to end the rst

half of the contest. Castle racked up 14

points to lead all scorers in the rst half.

The Wauseon run put the Tribe quickly

in control of the contest, leading 30-15

at the intermission.

The Blackbirds looked to get them-

selves back in to contention as the sec-

ond half opened up, but the vaunted

Indian defense came alive in the third

quarter, holding Pettisville to only four

points in the third period. Boysel con-

tinued his hot streak, and was assisted

by junior teammate Jacob Newlove who

hit a three late in the quarter, helping

the Indians grow their lead to 42-19 as

the third quarter buzzer sounded.

As the fourth quarter began, the Tribe

was rmly in control. Pettisvilles Jacob

Reyes was not going to go out without a

ght, as the senior made sure to score

his nal points on the court he called

home for four years. However it was not

enough to chip away at the Wauseon

lead, as the Tribe would go on to win by

a score of 55-27.

With the win, Wauseon moves to 15-5

on the season, and is 6-1 in NWOAL

play. Pettisville falls to 11-10 on the

year, and 7-2 in the BBC.

For the Blackbirds, Dykstra led the

way with ten points. Noah Miller and Eli

King both scored four, Tate Kauffman

put down three, Jeremy Mann, Jacob

Reyes, and Korben Rychener all nished

with two points.

Castle set the pace for Wauseon with14 points. Newlove contributed 11, Boy-

sel scored 10, Zach Johnson tallied up

six, Dillon Schantz and Zac Robinson

both put up four, and Caleb Andrews

and Corry Byers rounded out the night

with three points a piece.

NORTHWOOD: February 15, 2014

The Montpelier Locomotives went on the

was not enough to untrack the NWOAL

ambassador Locos on this evening as

Nate McCord knocked down 15 points

and Alex Matzinger added another 12

as Montpelier came home with a 51-37

win.

Bulldogs Pile Onto TheNorth Central Eagles On HomecomingPIONEER: February 15, 2014 As

Homecoming King Clayton Ferguson led

his North Central Eagle teammates to

the locker room to lace 'em up prior to

the February 15 game against the Edg-

erton Bulldogs, no one could imagine

what was coming at the opening tip.

The theme for Homecoming Night,

'Fire and Ice', turned out to be more

a prophecy than a mere theme. North

Central came out brutally cold to sup-

ply the ice, and Edgerton couldn't miss,

bringing a torch to the Homecoming cel-

ebration with a 60-27 blowout.

The Bulldogs pitched an 18-0 shut-

out in the rst period, and by the time

the intermission rolled around, the Ea-

gles were down 32-4...their worst offen-

sive display in years.

The barrage continued into the third

when Ferguson led the Eagles back to

life, but the second half efforts were

more than countered by the Bulldogs

that were still attempting threes into the

fourth period.

Ferguson led the Eagles with 11

points, while Jordan Reeves and Dylan

Hutchison each had 5 points, and Brady

Zuver, Jordan Bailey and Josh Roesner

each had 2 points.

WAUSEON: February 14, 2014 A

slowdown offense has its good points,

but if your defense cannot get your op-

position to play along, it is all led un-

der the same category...moot.

The Wauseon Indians were certainly

in non-compliance with the Evergreen

slo-mo offense as they jumped out to an

early lead and built on it for four quar-

ters on February 14, nishing the nightand the Vikings with a 43-23 win.

Jacob Newlove nished with a game-

high 13 points for the Tribe, who are

still a part of the logjam at the top of

the conference. Zac Robinson and Corry

had 6, and Kris Boysel and Carter Bzovi

Locomotives Suffer Big Loss ToNWOAL Foe Swanton



SWANTON 2/14/14The 2013-

2014 season did not end the way the

Montpelier Locomotives wanted it to, as

they suffered a 84-40 trouncing at the

hands of NWOAL rival Swanton.The Bulldogs wasted little time tak-

ing complete control of the contest, as

they jumped out to an 18 point lead in

the rst quarter, outscoring the Locos

24-6 in the opening quarter.

Things did not get much better for

Montpelier in the second period, as they

again were outscored by a double digit

margin, this time on the short end of a

26-7 decit. At the break, the Bulldogs

of Swanton led the Montpelier Locomo-

tives by a convincing 50-13 margin.

While the third quarter was not as

lopsided as the rst two had been, Mont-

pelier was unable to keep the Bulldogs

from pulling away even more than they

already had. The Loco offense was able

to score ten points in the third quarter,

but gave up 19 on the defensive end,

making the score 69-23 at the end of

three quarters of action.

Montpelier was able to close the gap

in the fourth quarter, but it was too late

to start building any momentum. The

Locos won the fourth quarter 17-15, butmaking the nal tally 84-40 in favor of

the Swanton Bulldogs.

Matzinger led the Locos with seven

points in the contest. Surbey was able

Pettisville Blackbirds sealed the deal on

another undisputed BBC championship

Fayette Eagles by means of a 38-35 de-

feat of the Stryker Panthers in The Cage.

The win did not come easy for the

Birds. Pettisville jumped out to an early

Frigid First Half Shoots DownHilltop In BBC Play Against Fayette

WEST UNITY: February 14, 2014

The Hilltop Cadets have struggled all

season long with consistency, and with

Fayette in the house on February 14,

the old bugaboo returned to bite the

hometown boys.

Hilltop posted a second half advan-

tage of 25-16 over the Eagles, a difcult

task against their defense. That advan-

tage was not enough to atone for a pal-try ve-point output in the rst half that

allowed Fayette to come away with a 35-

301 win.

Koby Biddix continued his torrent

of treys, landing four for Fayette and

a game-high 12 points. Chandler San-

ford put up 8 points, Jerad Seiler 6,

Tristan Bates 4 points, Wade Burkhold-

er drained a trey, and Grant Schaffner

had a deuce.

Quinn Smith landed 11 points for the

Cadets, with Miklo Abner ring off 8.

into hibernation. 16-3 and 17-8 runs by

the Tigers in the second and third peri-

ods not only obliterated their decit, but

threatened a blowout. The Birds were

able to rally in the fourth, but the clock

Fayette Tops Edon In Overtime After Sanford's

Half Court Prayer Is AnsweredEDON: February 10, 2014 Throwaway the won-lost records and admit it...

The Hangar in Edon is not an easy place

to get a road win. The Boys in Bomber

Blue came into their February 10 BBC

game against Fayette with a 7-9 record

overall, while Fayette was sporting anoth-

er ne season at 11-5. All signs pointed

to a likely Eagles' win, but like I said, The

Hangar is not a place where visitors have

an easy go of it. The 36-33 Fayette victory

was one for the ages.

The Eagles and Bombers went back

and forth until a 15-10 third put Fayette

up by seven going into the fourth. Kaden

Sapp canned 8 of his team-high 13 points

to lead an Edon rally in the fourth that

saw the Bombers pull even at the end of

regulation. Overtime was on the way.

In the extra period, both teams' defens-

es came to the fore, putting the clamps on

scoring. Finally, the Bombers worked a

strategy to move the ball around, kill the

clock, and go for a nal shot. The strat-

egy worked well, until they moved the ball

into the right corner where the Fayette

defense forced a turnover.

After a timeout and with the potential

of a second overtime looming large, the

ball was inbounded from Grant Schaffner

to Chandler Sanford, a senior with trackand cross country experience dating back

to his junior high days. Turning around

and coming back to the other side of the

court, he was picked up by Edon's Brock

Thiel who turned Sanford to the sideline.

With the clock down to two seconds, San-

ford, who had the pedal to the metal, ranthe tightrope between River Wicker and

the sideline, ring off a shot as he hit

midcourt just prior to the buzzer. The ball

grazed the back of the hoop...everything

else was all net as the three-point prayer

was answered. The explosion of the Fay-

ette faithful was equally mirrored by thestunned silence of Bomber Nation.

Sanford led all scorers with 15 points

for Fayette, with Koby Biddix landing 8.Jerad Seiler had 6 points, Tristen Bates,

Tyler Cox and Skylar Lantz each had 2

points, and Schaffner nished with a free

throw.Jacob Brown backed Sapp with 8

points for Edon. Thiel nished with 7

points, Wicker 3, and Mike Peeples 2

points.

Indians Bounce Elmwood InNon-Conference Action



WAUSEON 2/8/14---The Wauseon In-

dians played host to non-conference foe

Elmwood. It was the Indians stout defense

that led the way to an easy victory as theTribe would down the Royals of Elmwood

by a nal score of 60-28.

It was a slow rst quarter for both

squads offenses. The Tribe would start

off with a three pointer by senior Zac Rob-

inson early on in the quarter, but would

be unable to jump out to a big lead in the

opening quarter, as at the end of the rst

quarter of action, the scoreboard read 9-5

in favor of Wauseon.

Elmwood gained some momentum

in the early part of the second period,

even taking a 12-11 lead over the Tribe.

Wauseon head coach Chad Burt called a

timeout, and was able to make the prop-

er adjustments to get his

team back in to the lead.

Wauseon junior Noah Cas-

tle was a vital part of thiscomeback, scoring six of

the Indians 11 points in

the second quarter. At half,

it was the Indians who held

a 20-15 lead over the visit-

ing Elmwood Royals.

The third quarter is

when all doubt would be

eliminated from the con-

test, as the Indians would

take complete control of the

contest. The Indian defense

held Elmwood to only ve

points in the third quar-

ter. Meanwhile, ve differ-

ent players would score

for Wauseon, putting 20

points on the board in the

third quarter alone. In fact,Wauseon scored as many

points in the third stanza

as Elmwood had in the rst

three quarters combined.

Going in to the fourth and

nal quarter of action, the Tribe held a 40-

20 lead.

Wauseon would not take their foot off

the gas in the nal quarter of the night,

scoring 20 more points in the nal quar-

ter. Kris Boysel scored eight points in thefourth, giving him a total of 14 points in

the second half alone. Elmwood could do

nothing to close the gap, and the Tribe

would go on to win the contest by a nal

score of 60-28.

Leading the way for the Indians was

Boysel with 16, Corry Byers contributed

11 on the night, Castle and Jacob Newlove

both scored nine, Zac Robinson put six

points on the board, Zach Johnson had

four, Alec Lillich and Carter Bzovi both

scored two, and Dillon Schantz rounded

out the scoring with one point.

scoring 11 points of their own to take

a nine point lead at the end of the rst

gel said after the contest It was a nice

win against a quality team that is very

well coached. I am happy for our se-

niors to nish their career on their home

court with a win. Lauren Hostetler was

great on both ends of the oor tonight.

Audra Klopfenstein did a great job de-

fending one of the better players in our

that works hard in practice and plays a

big role in helping and supporting her

teammates.

Hannah Bleikamp Breaks The 1,000-PointBarrier And The Hilltop Lady Cadets HandThe Antwerp Lady Archers A Lopsided Loss

By Timothy Kays


WEST UNITY: February 11, 2014 -The Hilltop Lady Cadets know how tothrow a Senior Night bash. After theirFebruary 11 tilt, the Antwerp Lady Ar-chers can attest to the fact. Emily Arm-bruster led all scorers with 21 points,Hannah Bleikamp broke the 1,000-ca-reer point barrier, and Kayla Settlemire,out injured since the Swanton game,made it onto the hardwood of The Bun-ker one more time as the Lady Cadetsunloaded the frustrations of a three-game losing streak on the Lady Archersby a 66-30 score.

The road to Senior Night was, at best,rocky. A loss to Swanton after the LadyCadets failed to hold a late lead was fol-lowed by the same thing to BBC rivalPettisville...a loss that cost them a piece

of the conference title. An obviously de-moralized an banged up Hilltop squadwas then clobbered by Edgerton onFebruary 8, leading to the Senior Nightgame. The focus of the Lady Cadet faith-ful was on Bleikamp, a Sienna Heights-bound senior who came into the contestjust six points shy of 1,000 for her elitecareer. The focus of Bleikamp and herteammates though was decidedly differ-ent...get off the schneid, and get back toplaying winning, Hilltop hoops.

Both teams came out with tough de-fenses that kept each other off the score-boards in the early going. A full-courtpress by the Lady Cadets was equallyeffective as the 2-1-2 full court zonepress of Antwerp. Eventually though,the team with better ball movement and

control began to nd chinks in the ar-mor of their opponents, and that teamwas Hilltop. With Antwerp well awareof the potency of Bleikamp, they couldnot afford to double up on her seniorpartner, the equally dangerous EmilyArmbruster. It was Armbrusters paintplowing that gave the Lady Cadets anearly lead that they would never surren-der. On the other end of the oor, theLady Archers were nding senior KaileyCreamers point defense almost omni-present, and fellow senior LeAnn Joosta pain in the paint. Antwerp did not getonto the scoreboard until less than aminute remained in the rst, and theywent into the second trailing 11-4. TheLadies In Red would turn the game intoa blowout in the second.

Bleikamp had ample opportunities towrap up her 1,000th point earlier in therst period, but instead chose to pass offin favor of sure scoring opportunities...astrategy that proved successful on thescoreboard. As her point total slowlyrose, so did the anxiety of the crowd.When a three attempt from the upperleft side hit the back iron, the collectivegroan from the audience could be felt aseasily as it was heard. The patience ofthe Lady Cadets on the oor was win-ning the game, and as the clock tickeddown toward the three minute mark inthe half, the impatient audience nallygot to see the history made that they ea-gerly anticipated.

Still playing the tough pressure de-fense, Bleikamp got a hand on the ball

being dribbled by an Antwerp guard. Al-though more a ball-handling disruptionthan a steal at the beginning, the actioncaused the Lady Archer to lose controlof the ball for a split second...and thatwas all Bleikamp needed. With the LadyArchers already falling back, Bleikampcleared the ball to herself and took offon the right side. With one defender infront of her, two to her right and theall-too-recently pilfered Antwerp guard

nipping at her heels, Bleikamp cut intothe right side of the lane and let go a

running jumper from six feet away. Theball went in, and at the 3:06 mark in thesecond quarter...8:17 pm for those whomissed the game, Hannah Bleikamp be-came the third Lady Cadet to break the1,000 career point barrier. The deucefrom the paint was point number 1,001.

The game was stopped temporarily aspublic address announcer Tom Schaperannounced the event to what had be-come a loud and sustained standingovation. Hannah received the congratu-latory hugs from her teammates, andthen from her parents, Phil and Bob-bie Bleikamp who came onto the oor.Hilltop Head Coach Aaron Schmidt pre-sented Hannah with the game ball, afterwhich many of the hometown faithfulput down the signs of support that they

were holding up to that point, pulled outcameras, and began snapping photos ofthe historical moment. The Lady Cadetswent on to expand their lead to 21 goinginto the intermission at 38-17.

Unfortunately for the Lady Archers,the timeout taken to honor HannahBleikamp was just a brief respite. Thesecond half remained to be played, andthe Lady Cadets, still riding the high of ahistory-making moment and a 21-pointlead, were not about to have a replay ofthe Swanton and Pettisville games...uh-uh.

The hometown girls hit the hard-wood in the second half with the samedirection that they had coming into thegame, and the intensity to back it up.This time around, there would be no laterally. The Lady Cadets went on 17-7 runin the third to open the advantage to31 at 55-24. In the fourth period, therewere only two things remaining to ac-complish. Make sure that there was notgoing to be any late-game suspense...check. The Lady Cadets continued toadd to their lead to ensure that point.

All that remained was to make surethat Senior Night was truly, SeniorNight. With under four minutes left inthe game, Coach Schmidt took care ofthat detail when he called Settlemire offthe bench to check in. Unable to playbut still able to suit up, the addition ofSettlemire to the lineup allowed her tojoin her fellow seniors Joost, Creamer,Bleikamp and Armbruster on The Bun-ker hardwood one nal time before theirhometown faithful. All ve then checked

out, bringing an end to their home reg-ular season careers. The lead and thegame well in hand, the Hilltop Lady Ca-det Class of 2014 went out in style witha 36-point win.

Armbruster nished with 6 boards,4 steals and a game-high 21 points forthe 13-7 / 6-3 Lady Cadets, and Blei-kamp went for 18 points, 5 reboundsand 3 swipes. Cierra Grant knockeddown 9 points, Creamer had 7 points,and Bailey Funkhouser rained down atrey. Joost nished with 2 points, Des-tiny Denton had a deuce and a dozendimes, and Allie Schmitt and KarissaCrisenbery came off the bench to eachadd another 2 points.

A big-time celebration in small-townAmerica...this Senior Night Bash in The

Bunker only took a couple of hours tocomplete, but the memories generatedon this night are guaranteed good for alifetime.
