Bob Ashby noted that two members of the New Orleans Saints Rosters are former GMC athletes. Troy Evans, Lakota 1996, plays a prominant role as the Saints special teams captain and also as a back up linebacker. Evans was an all GMC first team selectee in both football and basketball. Zach Strief, Milford 2001, is a back-up offensive tackle for the Saints. Strief was also a multi sport varsity letter winner who competed in the GMC in football, basketball, and track and field. He was a three time all GMC selectee in football.

Lakota West Girls Score Big Time
|
The Lakota West Girls’ Basketball team is the winner of the 2009 OHSAA Foundation/UGIVE Basketball Service Week. The girls and their coaches were recognized at the Cleveland Cavaliers’ game Sunday, January 31 and had a once-in-a-lifetime chance to meet with NBA all-star, Shaquille O’Neal because of their outstanding service. Service Week took place from Nov. 19 through Dec. 5, 2009, and Lakota West was the team to get the highest percentage of students to volunteer during the two week period. In addition for participating in Service Week, the team also got to play in a Foundation Game against the opponent of their choice. The girls’ service project was one that was very close to their hearts. They teamed up with Reach Out Lakota’s “Adopt a Child” Christmas program and bought gifts for 96 local children in need during the holiday season. Wanting to make the project even better, each girl volunteered to donate an additional $5 to the cause and spent a Saturday afternoon shopping at Target for gifts for children ages four to 18.

Special Award Established
|
|
The Sycamore Lady Aves Basketball Team will be presenting “The Love of the Game Award “ to Ashley Wanninger from Colerain High School. The award is in memory of Dr. Bob Cooper the father of Abby and Alex Cooper who played for the Lady Aves. Dr. Cooper passed away suddenly in early June of complications from leukemia. Bob was a great supporter of the program and loved and lived the game of basketball. In establishing this award, the Sycamore coaches note that it will be presented annually to the female GMC player that exemplifies a desire to improve their game and work at their highest level at all times.

This Kidd Can Score
|
Lakota East girl’s basketball player, senior Amber Kidd, is the type of quiet, unassuming player that could easily go unrecognized. What shouldn’t go unnoticed though is that she recently broke through the 1,000-point mark in her high school career. Kidd transferred to East last year after playing at Westbrook Christian School in Rainbow City, Alabama for three seasons. Eligibility requirements in her former state permitted the talented Kidd to play varsity when she was in the 8th grade. During her first year on varsity she scored 277 points. In subsequent seasons she totaled 289 points as a freshman and 283 points as a sophomore. Her junior and senior years at East have produced another 191 points bringing her to an all-time mark of 1040 points to date.
