The gymnasium at Bloomington High School South was filled this afternoon for a contest between No. 4 Detroit Country Day and No. 5 South. For most of the crowd, they got what they paid for: a 73-67 win by the hometown Panthers.
Shades Valley High School (Ala.) fell tonight, 53-50, ending Christian Watford's bid for a state title in his senior season. He missed a potential game-tying three pointer with six seconds left on the clock. The IU signee scored 17 points.
"Passion for the past ... excitement for the future" is the motto on this year's team posters and in the intro video at Assembly Hall played before each home game. So if you are struggling with the present, here is another glimpse of the future, an article in today's IDS on Jordan Hulls.
There was a time when most basketball-loving kids in Bloomington wanted to “be like Mike” – Michael Jordan, that is. Now it is another Jordan many in town are looking up to: Bloomington High School South point guard Jordan Hulls.
At 6:00 p.m. on ESPNU, the McDonald's All-American Game rosters were revealed. Despite hopes that Christian Watford, Maurice Creek, Derek Elston or Jordan Hulls might be selected, there will be no future Hoosiers for IU fans to watch on April 1.
As I mentioned last night on the live game blog, Bobby Capobianco became Loveland High School's all-time scoring leader in a 50-45 loss to Wilmington High School. He surspassed the 1,403-point total of former Northern Kentucky University (DII) standout Kevin Schappell.
All six members of the Class of 2009 are McDonald's All-America nominees. Here is the full list of the hundreds of boys and girls high school standouts nominated.
Last night, three of IU's Class of 2009 recruits were in action, and all three had good offensive numbers.
Check out the feature story on Maurice Creek running in today's paper about how Creek found success on the basketball court with help from his stepfather, despite the absence of his biological father.
Michael Morgan has always been there for his stepson Maurice Creek. They bonded through basketball early on, whether it was Morgan doing drills with Creek out on “the hill,” watching him play at the elementary school or pitting him against older kids at the local rec center. “If it weren’t for him working me out, I wouldn’t be here right now,” Creek said in a phone interview last week.
Though the Hoosiers didn't quite "Ground the Gophers" as hoped, IU coach Tom Crean did manage to round up several in-state recruits for visits today.
LOVELAND, Ohio – Bobby Capobianco is used to being on the move. He was born in Orlando, Fla., but has since lived in six other states. In August 2005, his family moved to Loveland, just outside of Cincinnati. Prior to Ohio, Capobianco called Greensboro, N.C., his home. “I lived there for six years, which is the longest I have ever lived anywhere,” he said. Capobianco has been a welcome addition to Loveland, and he will likely end his four-year varsity basketball career as Loveland High School’s all-time leading scorer, rebounder and shot blocker. He’s already two-thirds of the way there, just 131 points short of that feat with 11 regular season games to go.
It's quotes like that, above, that make it enjoyable to interview IU recruit Bobby Capobianco. I have spoken with him several times, and great quotes continue to roll off his tongue. I saw him play twice over winter break, but also sat down with him for a 30-minute in-person interview. Here is the article that ran in today's issue of the IDS.
This comes from IDS photographer James Brosher who made the trip to see IU recruit Derek Elston (above) in action yesterday:
Stephan Van Treese (2009) and Justin Martin (2010) are off to Louisville, and five-star recruit Dominique Ferguson is headed to Kentucky in 2010. The Cardinals topped the Wildcats 74-71 earlier today, but they won more than just the game.
IDS photographer James Brosher saw sophomore point guard and IU recruit Jeremiah Davis in action yesterday. Brosher, who shot the above photograph, put together this write-up about the game:
Former IU guard Armon Bassett has enrolled at Ohio University, as announced by Ohio coach John Groce. It has been an interesting last several months for the Terre Haute native, who went from IU star to ex-Hoosier to UAB transfer to former UAB player in the last several months.
Eric Gordon is just one of the many recent basketball stars to come out of the state of Indiana. Now, the current Los Angeles Clippers guard is trying to pave the way for more Hoosier State natives hoping to follow in his footsteps.
Tuesday night I checked out Bobby Capbobianco (as did IU assistant Tim Buckley, see above) as the No. 7 Loveland Tigers traveled a few minutes up the road to take on the No. 4 Mason Comets in a battle between two former conference rivals from Greater Cincinnati.
Bobby Capobianco, Loveland (OH) - Loveland won its third straight game on Friday, defeating Anderson 62-47 behind 25 points from Capobianco. The Tigers fell to 0-2 in Capobianco's debut on Dec. 9, but the IU recruit has led Loveland to a 3-2 record, scoring 17, 18 and 25 points, respectively, in the Tigers' last three contests.
