WESTFIELD, Ind. — Westfield police announced the arrest of a 17-year-old male from Indianapolis for his alleged role in shots fired at the Pacers Athletic Center Sunday evening.

According to police, a fight happened inside the facility Nov. 5 after a boys basketball game. Police said the suspect then followed a coach out toward the coach's car, yelled at the coach and shot three rounds in the direction of the coach's car as it drove away.

Interesting column, as it comes from a displaced Hoosier writing for a paper in Princeton, New Jersey.

Just wow.

Both Hebron and Wes-Del announced today they will not field girls varsity basketball teams this season.

Monday, October 30, began the 2023-2024 season for girls’ basketball in Indiana, as there were three games on the slate. Between then and Saturday, November 4, most teams around the state officially tipped off for the first time. There were several strong performances last week, but we selected the three ladies below as our first recipients this season for the IBCA/Franciscan Health Player of the Week award, one from each of the IBCA’s three districts.

Chesterton Sophomore Tenley Davis, Brownsburg Junior Avery Gordon, and Lanesville Junior Hadley Crosier were selected as the winners for Oct. 30-Nov. 4 in the recognition program coordinated by the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association. Davis is the representative for District-1, Gordon takes home honors in District-2, while Crosier is the recipient in District-3.

Last Thursday was a big night for the Chesterton Trojans as they began their season, plus they saw Sophomore Tenley Davis top her career high from last season by 20, as she poured in 36 points in a 68-53 victory at Highland High School. The 6-1 forward also collected five rebounds and handed out five assists in the opening night win. Two days later, the second-year player posted her first double-double of the season, as she came away with 18 points and 11 rebounds in hard-fought 65-52 defeat at the hands of the Northridge Lady Raiders. Davis added four more assists in the loss.

The Brownsburg Bulldogs picked up a pair of key victories last week, topping Warren Central on Halloween, 61-58, then taking care of North Central on Saturday, 78-70. To say Junior Avery Gordon is a big part of what Brownsburg does is just the half of it. Standing 6-6, the center posted a double-double in each win. Tuesday, at Warren Central, she was credited with 25 points and 12 rebounds. Saturday, she returned to the court and increased her totals against the Panthers to 29 points and 16 rebounds on the evening. The dominant post has already announced her verbal commitment to Purdue University.

Coming off a 2023 Class 1A State Championship, the Lanesville Eagles have not missed a beat, and Junior Hadley Crosier is a big reason for the continuity. In a 61-50 season-opening win Tuesday at Rock Creek, the 5-9 guard scored a career high 29 points on 11-16 shooting, including a strong 7-9 performance from the charity stripe. She added eight rebounds, eight steals, and three assists in the success. Saturday, in a blowout victory against Mitchell, Crosier scored 14 points on 6-10 shooting, she handed out four assists, plus she collected five caroms and four steals in limited minutes of an easy win.

This is the 16th season for the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association Player of the Week program, and the fourth season it is being presented by Franciscan Health, a corporate sponsor of the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association.

Player of the Week winners are chosen each week from each of the IHSAA’s three districts. Girls winners will be chosen from now through the Monday following the IHSAA Girls State Finals. Boys winners will be chosen starting in three weeks and through the Monday following the IHSAA Boys State Finals.

Adam Berry Named Varsity Girls’ Basketball Head Coach for 2023-24

Pioneer will open its varsity season at home versus Clinton Central on Tuesday, November 14, 2023 at approximately 7:30 PM.

David McWherter Selected JV Girls’ Basketball Head Coach for 2023-24
Pending school board approval, the athletic department at Pioneer Junior-Senior High School has officially named John David McWherter the junior varsity girls’ basketball head coach for the 2023-24 winter sports season. Coach McWherter will also serve as a varsity girls’ basketball assistant coach for Coach Adam Berry in 2023-24. Mr. McWherter was the head varsity girls’ basketball coach at Pioneer Jr-Sr High School from 2011 to 2015 and has another sixteen years of coaching boys’ basketball experience at various levels for PJSHS. Pioneer will open its junior varsity season at home versus Clinton Central on Tuesday, November 14, 2023 at 6 PM.

I am not one to usually post about officials, since I myself am a varsity official that makes mistakes. Although this official needs to reconsider officiating. Names will not be given, but her is the situation.

1. During the coaches meeting, he tells both coaches that he had already done a boys scrimmage and he has a game to go to after our game and that his left knee is bone on bone and he will do the best he can. First that goes back to my point for years that if players who pass physicals and are presumably in shape can only play so many games in a day/week, why are officials allowed to? Second, if you know that you're hurt why schedule three games in one day?

2. I asked this official about a hard plastic splint that an opposing girl was wearing. He said he was unsure of the rule and would allow it. One of his partners said no, but he said we are allowing it. I knew the rule, but I did not say anything except, I have low numbers and I just hope that splint, since she was a post, doesn't poke an eye. He says, "Well they can get eye poked regardless of the splint. After half the other official said we looked the rule up and she cannot wear that, you were right and can't play until taken care of.

3. During the first quarter we had a quarter like no other for us, everything was going right. This officail started calling some ticky tack calls on us and letting them hammer us. We were up 19-2 and he called another foul on my post. I said what did she do. He said she hit her in the arm. I said she was straight up and did not move. The offensive player initiated contact, he said Brad you are right, but we are not going there, look at the score. I walked away and in a regular voice told my assistant when refs start officiating based on the score that is when teams get back in it. He proceeded to call a few more on my PG. One which was no where close to fouling (I have film). By halftime my two leading scorers had three fouls, but we were up 20 at half. The second half started the same with the fouls. 80% of his fouls called were on us and within 3 minutes both players had four fouls and one had a back-to-back so fast we could not sub. PG fouled out.

4. In the fourth quarter with a 11 point lead now, a rebounding foul was called on us. Good call. It was followed up with a T on our player. He could not tell me what she said nor if it was her. I asked the other official who standing by the girl if he could tell me what she said. He said coach, "she did not say anything, I do not know what he thought she said." I was like ok whatever. I never questioned it. So here is where he tried to screw us again. They give the team the technical shots, then was getting ready to shoot for the over the back. I did yell this time to get their attention I wanted an explanation. He said well the T was team foul number five so the bonus will be shot for the player foul. I said but the player foul was number four and before the T. You cannot shoot a bonus on a foul that was not in the bonus for something that happens after. He said coach we are shooting, finally I got the other guys attention and explained and he said you are right, but. I said but nothing this is huge because they will get two more FT and ball. He said ok I will talk to him. Finally he agreed, but was not happy.

5. We had a concussion from a screen that was two feet in front of him when her elbows went from side of body to 90 degree angle when setting the screen.

In the end his calls hurt us because of who they were on, they were not all correct, but I understand that, but not knowing the rules and saying come on, look at the score and officiate based on that is not right. The other team picked up their D and played a great second half so this is not me crying about winning losing because we did hold on to win 52-47.

My only recourse to vent this way and give him a "1".

Canterbury has cancelled its girls basketball season. Looks like somebody better get back out on the recruiting trail.

Bobby Knight has died this evening.

I ran across a few tidbits on this story when I was doing another project about IHSAA penalties. Not sure if it was the uniqueness of Shelby Shake's name or the fact that someone tried to fight John Wooden, but I scribbled this down about two years ago as a potential research project. Finally got around to doing it, and had a blast uncovering the details. Hope you enjoy this story from 1937.

MISHAWAKA, Ind. -- An exchange of post game haymakers by rival coaches on a cold December night back in 1937 ushered the end of a would-be Hall of Fame career and signaled the start of another..

Coach Shelby Shake and his 1937 Mishawaka squad, #13 is leading scorer Art Van Tone

Veteran Coach Shelby Shake was in the middle of his 11th season leading the Mishawaka Cavemen (also referred to as Maroons at the time.) He had already guided the program to four Sectional titles and one Regional championship during his tenure and would ultimately win a fifth later that next March.



Mishawaka fans were enjoying not only their winning ways, but also their state-of-the-art basketball gym (now called the Cave.) However, what went down on that Friday night in the now-historic gymnasium would be a low point in the season and end an otherwise stellar coaching career.


Mishawaka’s Cave - Opened 1924 and oldest gym in state still in use

Legendary Coach John Wooden was in his first year at South Bend Central, and his Bears were visiting their rivals after previously besting them at home, 35-34, earlier in December. The Northern Indiana High School Conference title was up for grabs that night, and this particular tilt was extra spicy. As the clock ticked down to zero, South Bend had once again upended the Cavemen, 36-32.

An upset parent in St. Louis MO shot the coach of his son's football team. The parent was unhappy because the coach did not start his son. The coach is recovering from 4 gunshot wounds.

The city of St. Louis suspended the team for the rest of the year. This was due to actions by the team parents.

Our contestants spread their picks over five teams in Week 9. The 2A #10 Rochester Zebras were the most popular pick, and the five players who selected them received 22 points for their 36-14 win over the Maconaquah Braves. The largest margin of victory in this round belonged to the Monrovia Bulldogs in their 44-point win over the Indianapolis Scecina Crusaders, but none of our contestants picked them. They were followed closely by the 1A #12 Milan Indians, who delivered 43 points for the three players who chose them in their victory over the Madison Cubs. Four of our teams suffered defeats this week, and five played in shutout games - with two of those five (1A #10 Sheridan and Seymour) on the wrong end of the score.

It is time to crown our champion! Congratulations to Nick Jenkinson, the winner of the 2023 Hickory Husker Pigskin Pick'em! He racked up 144 points in the last three weeks of the contest to move from ninth to the top of the leaderboard. Nick's season total of 386 points earned him his first victory in the contest in his fifth season of competing. Mr. B.A. finished second with 363 points. ysuindy finished third by means of the tiebreaker over fourth place hhsdawg, both of whom had 362. Quad Runner rounds out our top five with 360 points.

The correct score for our tiebreaker this year was 199, the combined scores of the eight teams which played on September 16 at Indiana Wesleyan's Wildcat Football Stadium:

Elwood 22, Blackford 12 (34 points)
Mississinewa 35, Frankton 6 (41 points)
Madison-Grant 43, Oak Hill 19 (62 points)
Alexandria 42, Eastbrook 20 (62 points)

Ed Stachulak was the closest on the tiebreaker with his prediction of 209 points.

Here are the games for Week 9 with scores, point margins, and the number of players who picked each one:

Monrovia 44, Indianapolis Scecina 0 (44 points, no players)
Milan 43, Madison 0 (43 points, 3 players)
Hanover Central 35, Hammond Central 0 (35 points, 1 player)
Rochester 36, Maconaquah 14 (22 points, 5 players)
Fishers 34, Zionsville 14 (20 points, 3 players)

Norwell 28, Columbia City 23 (-5 points, 1 player)
Carroll (Flora) 24, Sheridan 0 (-24 points, no players)
Bloomington South 47, Seymour 0 (-47 points, no players)

Here are the final standings:

Nick Jenkinson - 386
Mr. B.A. - 363
ysuindy - 362 (tiebreaker prediction: 176, difference of 23 points)
hhsdawg - 362 (tiebreaker prediction: 250, difference of 51 points)

Seven of the teams on this year's list were ranked in the IFCA preseason polls for their class. Here is how our teams were ranked in the preseason, their records at the end of the season, and their rankings after Week 8:

Columbia City: Preseason 4A #11; Record 5-4; Week 8 unranked
Evansville Mater Dei: Preseason 2A #1; Record 2-7; Week 8 #12
Fishers: Preseason 6A #10; Record 6-3; Week 8 #10
Hanover Central: Preseason 3A #6; Record 9-0; Week 8 #4
Milan: Preseason 1A unranked; Record 6-3; Week 8 #12
Monrovia: Preseason 3A #15; Record 7-2; Week 8 unranked
Rochester: Preseason 2A #11; Record 7-2; Week 8 #10
Seymour: Preseason 5A unranked; Record 5-4; Week 8 unranked
Sheridan: Preseason 1A #5; Record 6-3; Week 8 #10

Hanover Central was the only one of our teams to finish the regular season with a perfect 9-0 record. Rochester's two losses were to teams currently ranked #6 and #13 in the IFCA Class 3A poll. Fishers' three losses came at the hands of teams currently ranked #3, #6, and #7 in the IFCA Class 6A poll. Milan's three losses were to teams currently ranked #4 in the IFCA Class 1A poll and #9 and #10 in the Class 3A poll. Monrovia recorded the largest margin of victory with a 65-point win over Phalen Academy in Week 2, and Seymour suffered the worst defeat in a 47-point loss to Bloomington South in Week 9.

Your humble contest administrator is a software developer in real life, so I wrote a computer program to determine what the best possible score would be with this year's combination of teams. It also provides a ranking among all possible outcomes for each contestant who submitted a pick in every week of the contest. With a contest like this, the number of possible combinations of picks is n!, where n is the number of teams. For nine teams, that comes to 362,880. The worst possible score is -215 (none of our players were anywhere near that bad!). The best possible score is 404, with these picks:

Week 1 - Fishers (44)
Week 2 - Monrovia (65)
Week 3 - Columbia City (49)
Week 4 - Sheridan (57)
Week 5 - Hanover Central (40)
Week 6 - Seymour (21)
Week 7 - Rochester (62)
Week 8 - Evansville Mater Dei (23)
Week 9 - Milan (43)

Here are the rankings for our players. Rank = numeric rank out of 362,880. Percentage Rank = Percentage of possible scores that are worse.

Nick Jenkinson: Score = 386, Rank = 14, Percentage Rank = 100.00
Mr. B.A.: Score = 363, Rank = 96, Percentage Rank = 99.97

Nick Jenkinson's Rank of 14 means there were only 13 other possible combinations of picks (out of 362,880) which would have yielded a higher total score for the season. Well done, Nick!

I want to thank all of our players for getting their picks in on time every week, which made my job as the contest administrator much easier. Thanks to everyone who participated this season! We hope all of you will return to compete in the 2024 Hickory Husker Pigskin Pick'em!
