2019 Clinton County Spring Preview: Baseball Wilmington Brian Roberts is in his first season as the varsity head coach of the Wilmington High School baseball program. But he’s been around long enough to know pitching and defense will be keys for the Hurricane to compete for a league title in 2019. Roberts has been with the WHS program as an assistant for seven seasons. He coached travel ball in the Cincinnati area for six seasons. Roberts said New Richmond and Clinton-Massie “always seem to be at the top of the (SBAAC) American” Division standings but the Hurricane can sneak in with good pitching and defense. He noted depth in the outfield positions as well as
on the pitching staff are concerns as the season begins. “I feel like we can compete for the American Division title,” Roberts said. “We have good returning players, good senior leadership, and some talented younger players. Alex Meyer has been a leader in practice and helped a lot of the young players.” Wilmington was third in the American last season but lost Stephen Krause (playing at Miami) and Brett Bell (playing at Urbana). Krause hit. 537 last season with 23 runs batted in. Also graduating WHS was Nate Lakes and Zack Eden. Returning players are Meyer, Jordan Tackett, Ben McAllister and Jake Vaughan. Tackett hit .412 last year with 16 RBI. McAllister hit .407 and was 2-2 on the mound. Vaughan had a 2-0 record with a 1.91 earned run average. Assisted by Phil Gilmore, Gary
Andrews and Rick Kneisel, Roberts said transfer Matthew Spears is one of the top newcomers on the WHS team this season.
Blanchester Seven players graduated off last season’s Region 12 runnerup baseball team at Blanchester High School. Among the top players gone are three first team All-SBAAC players Brant Bandow (25 runs batted in), Jack Davidson (24 runs batted in) and Eric Patton (14 stolen bases and .479 on-base percentage). In addition, the fleet-footed Preston Griffin (35 steals) graduated as well. So head coach Aaron Lawson and Co. will have to find a way to overcome
the losses in order to repeat its historic season. Lawson said his Wildcats must get past last season’s success in order to realize its potential in 2019. In his eighth season at BHS, Lawson will be assisted by Drew Freeman, Kevin Brown, Alan Ledford, Bradon Pyle and Rusty Black. The veteran Blanchester coach said Clermont Northeastern and Bethel-Tate are league favorites. Blanchester was 20-11 last season and won the SBAAC National Division title. Leading the way for the Wildcats will be returning first-teamers Dustin Howard (.322, 25 RBI), Jacksson Waialae (.405, .537 OBP) and Brody Rice (7-3 record) See BASEBALL | 3

as well as second teamer Cole Ficke, who caught 165 innings last season for ‘Cats. There are several newcomers who can fill the voids including Hayden Tedrick, Mason Rector, Orin Potts, Kaleb Goodin, Trenton Czaika and Reagan Burch. But Lawson knows at the high school level it’s all about pitching and he hopes his staff, which has plenty of arms, can give the team “quality starts” this season.
East Clinton Now in his third year as East Clinton varsity baseball coach, Brian Carey doesn’t want a repeat of 2018. He hopes the juniors and seniors on the EC squad feel the same way.
2019 SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW
“I have had these seniors and juniors now for three years,” said Carey. “It is now time for them to step up and lead this team to a league title. When we watched Blanchester seal the SBAAC championship against us last year, it hurt. “The upperclassmen have worked very hard this off season to make sure that does not happen this year. They are hungry and the newcomers have brought the missing components in the field. We want to see more players step up as dominant pitchers.” Carey will have Cam Conner and DJ Henry coaching at the high school level with Don Morrow, Daniel Day, Jeff Walker, Eric Slagle, Tom Bieting and Bobbie Pierson coaching at the junior high level. East Clinton was 9-9 last season and lost three players, including first team AllSBAAC pitcher Brandon Norris. The Astros have returning Zach
Mitchell (first team All-SBAAC), Austin Arellano (first team All-SBAAC) and Matt Mitchell (second team All-SBAAC). Newcomers include Quinton Tolle and Isaiah Curtis. Carey said the main concern currently is a lack of depth in the pitching department. East Clinton lost its top two hurlers from a year ago. The coach likes the infield play as well as the offense, both “should continue to be consistent,” he said. Carey said Blanchester and Clermont Northeastern should be the National Division favorites in 2019.
Clinton-Massie Clinton-Massie lost a lot of innings from last season’s SBAAC American Division runnerup baseball team. The Falcons were 11-10 in 2018 but graduated Max Murray, Ashdain Martin, Luke Richardson, Weston Trampler, Alec Thomas, Cam Collett and Keith Mineer.
Saturday, March 23, 2019 3
Murray and Martin were first-team AllSBAAC all-stars. But coach Brian Camp, assisted by Tyler Hayslip and JV coach Cliff Doyle, welcomes back a pair of SBAAC first teamers in Tyler Lewis and Seth Goodall. Luke Chappie and Bryan Kennedy were both second teamers and join Spenser Branham and Corey May as returnees. Camp said the Falcons are capable of contending for a league title as long as they “execute and fundamentally handle all the small parts of the game on a daily basis.” Newcomers will have to fill many roles as Massie returns just one infielder and two outfielders from last season’s primary lineup. Camp said picking a league favorite is difficult. “This league will be competitive, with any given team having a chance to be the front-runner,” said Camp, who is in his fourth season at Massie and 15th overall coaching high school baseball.

2019 Clinton County Spring Preview: softball News Journal
Clinton-Massie It will be difficult to improve on the 2018 season for the Clinton-Massie High School softball team. The Lady Falcons were 24-5 last year, SBAAC American Division champions and Region 8 runnersup. But head coach Anthony Lauer is confident his squad can make another run at the state tournament. “I think there is the potential for us to have another good season,” said Lauer, who is in his seventh season as the CM head coach. “We are playing a very competitive Division I schedule, like always, and this will make us better when tournament time comes around. Once I get girls feeling more comfortable in their roles things will come together. “We need to get a little better defensively. Right now we are new in a couple positions and I’ve also asked a couple girls to move to a different position from where they played last year. Once we get our defense settled in we should be pretty good.” Senior Taylor Florea returns for another dominant season in the circle for Massie. Classmate Hailey Clayborn will catch the offerings of Florea and the other CM pitchers. Alexis Doan, Victoria Sivert (.412, 30 RBI), Lindsey Carter (35 RBI, Kendall Anderson and Natalie Lay (.457, 9 HR, 35 RBI) return to give the Lady Falcons as potent offense. Among the losses are second team All-Ohio selection Kelsey Carter, who hit .476 last year with 31 runs batted in. Also, Claire Carruthers, Ashlie Miller and Lindsey Amberger were integral parts of the 2018 squad that are not back. In addition, Lauer’s longtime coaching sidekick Greg Clayborn will not return to the bench. Josie McElroy will be the varsity assistant and
Jamey Snyder is the reserve coach. Several newcomers - Kayla Drake, Sara Hodge, Vanessa Wilson, Abby Schneider are expected to contribute, Lauer said. Lauer said it won’t be easy for the Lady Falcons to repeat in their own division as he expects “several teams to be competitive in the league this year.”
Wilmington Though this is his first season as the Wilmington High School varsity softball coach, Brian Spurlock has plenty of coaching experience. And he has plenty of returning talent to hopefully improve upon Wilmington’s third place finish in the SBAAC American Division last season. Spurlock said there are 10 returning varsity players, led by SBAAC first teamers Olivia Veidt and Harlie Bickett and second teamers Sophie Blessing and Madi Flint. “I feel very fortunate to inherit a team of young women with incredible talent, strong work ethics, and positive attitudes,” said Spurlock, who will be assisted by Lacy Myers, Josh Bickett and JV coach Jimmy Cramton. Wilmington was 9-10 last season in Glen Blessing’s last year as head coach. Spurlock comes in after serving as a fast-pitch coach for six years and a men’s military softball coach for 10 seasons. Courtney Smart, a first team AllSBAAC all-star in 2018, is the top 2018 graduate not returning to the Lady Hurricane squad. Jena Rhoads is a key newcomer, Spurlock said. The first-year coach said his squad can contend with Clinton-Massie and Western Brown for the league title if “we play together as one team instead of 13 individuals.” Spurlock also believes his squad is capable of being a league contender but he and the other coaches must convince “the girls they are as good as the coaching

staff knows they are.”
East Clinton Following a district runnerup season in 2018, East Clinton softball has high hopes for the 2019 softball season. “We are playing a very difficult schedule to prepare for tournament,” coach Matthew Zimmerman said. With just four returning starters,
Zimmerman will have to hope several young players step up as East Clinton looks to repeat is 14-9 mark. Williamsburg will provide the top competition in the SBAAC National Division, Zimmerman said, but his squad can win the championship if “we stay focused and don’t falter.” That’s not easy with so much inexperience.

“We are very young and inexperienced,” said Zimmerman, in his third year at ECHS. “We are expecting the young ladies to fill some pretty big shoes.” Among the biggest shoes to fill will be Sierra Christian (11 wins, 1.10 earned run average), Marah Dunn (114 innings as catcher), Makayla Smith (.525 batting average) and Kayla Hall (0 errors in the field). Zimmerman is assisted by Jeanne Brightman, Bob Hazelbaker and Trevor Dunn, along with junior varsity coaches Nakkea Mulkey and Kelly Durham. Top returning players are Taylor Boeckmann (Youngstown State signee), Mackenzie Campbell, Kate Durbin and Miranda Beener. Boeckmann hit .528 last season while earning All-Ohio honorable mention. The top newcomers are freshmen Kiera Brightman, Lydia Kessler and Alycia Barker.
Blanchester Blanchester softball coach Jamey Grogg lists nine newcomers of note for this season’s Ladycats roster. He’ll need ‘em. Blanchester lost eight
players from last year’s 8-12 team that finished fourth in the very tough SBAAC National Division. “Even though we have quite a few girls who lack varsity experience, I am thankful that I have three outstanding seniors - Kassidy Abney, Elecia Patton and Savanna Shank - to help lead this team,” said Grogg, who enters his 16th season as BHS head coach. Abney and Patton are four-year starters for BHS - Abney hit .514 last season. Abney’s first homerun this season will make her the school’s all-time career leader. She currently has 14 homers. The main holes to fill come with the absence of Madison Curless, a horse in the circle the past four years for BHS. She is first in school history in innings pitched (485.3), ninth in strikeouts (300) and second on offense with 11 homeruns. Jay Dalton also graduated and is fifth all-time with seven homeruns. Grogg said other coaches in the program are Tom Lee, Matt Sexton, Joey Freeman, Makayla Shank and Dan Peters. Williamsburg is the National Division favorite, Grogg noted, but believes his team can contend “if we play solid defense and execute at the plate.” Though youth and inexperience must be overcome, the more likely downfall of the BHS squad will be if “we don’t show up every day with a good attitude and ready to give our best effort,” said Grogg.

2019 Clinton County Spring Preview: tennis News Journal
Wilmington A tennis team’s starting lineup consists of seven players. Wilmington High School has eight players with starting experience coming back in 2019. Steve Reed says newcomers Jacob Romer and Caleb Reed “are expected to move in to the varsity line-up full time this year and a make an immediate impact.” To say WHS has plenty of depth this year is an understatement for the ages. “We will look at a lot of options for our line-up this year with so many players that can play in different spots,” said Steve Reed, in his 19th season as the WHS head coach. “We just need to utilize our depth. This is a group of players that have almost all played in our program since sixth grade. It is a great group of young men and parents that will be hard to see go. We need to make it a memorable season.” Reed said New Richmond or Western Brown, one of which has been SBAAC champion the past eight seasons, will again be the
front-runners for American Division supremacy. WHS was second in both the regular season and tournament standings in 2018, said Reed who will be assisted by JV coach Doug Cooper and junior high and WATA coach Keith Gilbert. Gilbert replaces Cathy Fay in both positions. Drew Moyer, a first-team AllSBAAC all-star in 2018, is the lone graduate from last year’s team. The singles lineup of Brayden Rhoads, Jonathan Fender and Avery Bradshaw returns as does double players Brady Henry, Jack Romer and Mason McIntosh. “Our doubles teams will be very tough to beat in the league,” said Reed. “As always we need to stay healthy.”
continue to improve,” he said. “My biggest concern is the lack of bench players. We could really use a few more players.” Jacob Miller and Hunter Miller return as the 1-2 punch at the top of the lineup. Both are seniors and were first team All-SBAAC all-stars a season ago. Cody McCollister and Brian Miller also return to lead the BHS doubles
pairings along with Colton Wilson and Ian Heeg. Shepard said the team lost two starters from a year ago, with Jordan Stroud, William Rannells and Josh Casteel graduating and Clayton Schirmer and Tanner Kellerman choosing to run track and field. Newcomers for Blanchester are freshmen Bryce Bandow and Billy See TENNIS | 7
Blanchester With the top two singles players returning, Blanchester High School tennis should be in good shape this season to defend its SBAAC National Division crown.

In his fourth season as East Clinton tennis coach, Bill Hrabak believes his Astros can contend for the SBAAC National Division crown. They’ll have solid numbers to choose from in 2019. East Clinton lost three players - four-year lettermen Alex Pence and Blake Bronson along with two-year starter Jacob Olds - from last year’s team that finished fourth in the National
Division. But Hrabak lists three upperclass newcomers as well as a junior varsity team to help “continue the upward ascent of the EC tennis program.” Aidan Henson, Zac Carver and Trent Garen are upperclassmen who look to fill out the Astros starting lineup. The foundation of the program this season will be Jake Howard, John Cline, Hayden Pirman and Josh Cline.
All are three-year letterwinners. Hrabak says Blanchester, Felicity and Bethel-Tate are National Division favorites but his team can compete if he can find “two solid replacements for our second and third singles” position. Also the rapid development of Henson, Carver and Garen will go a long way in determine the Astros standing. Among the JV players who will see court time and may move up to the varsity lineup if play warrants are Carter Carey, Owen Beatty, Grant Stonewall, Jadon Johnson, Kane Morton and Shane Lynch.
Clinton-Massie Clayton Amburgy returns as one of the top singles players in the SBAAC in 2019. A 13-2 record last year, Amburgy will lead the Falcons this season as they look to improve on a 6-9 record

and fourth place league finish. Joining Amburgy as returning players are Austin Faucett and Jason Martin. Coach Rod Amburgy, in his second year as head coach, said his team lost Zack Hammonds, Drew Keller and exchange student Leo Lentz from last year’s team. So the need to develop young players to fill in those spots will be key to the success of the team. “I’m excited for the boys tennis season to start,” the CM coach said. “I think the team is ready to get going also. There will be several new players this season. I’m looking forward to the helping the team have a good time this year learning and competing.” Among the newcomers for the Falcons are Brennen Swope, Barek Bennett, Abby Faucett and Tyler Greathouse. Amburgy said Wilmington is the favorite to win the American Division title this season.

2019 Clinton County Spring Preview: Boys track and field News Journal
Wilmington Wilmington High School finished second last season in the SBAAC American Division boys track and field meet. Head coach Gary Massie believes his Hurricane can do one better this season. “Our team this year can, and should, win the league title,” he said. “It depends if they decide to do what it takes to be a champion … work.” Massie is in his second year as the WHS head coach. He will be assisted by Brad Heys and J.D. McIntosh. “These two are as good as it gets,” Massie said. “It’s great to have them back.” The runnerup placement was “a complete turnaround” for the WHS boys track and field program, Massie said. “We have a great group of upperclassmen returning to the program,” said Massie. “These young men have bought into the program and are going to pass it down to a very talented group of underclassmen. We have reloaded with these young men.” Leading the way this season will be Simon Heys, who won the 1,600- and 3,200-meter runs in the SBAAC meet in 2018. Massie said the Hurricane posted two “big wins” in 2018 - at the Bellbrook and Copeland invitationals.
Clinton-Massie Clinton-Massie lost 11 athletes from last year’s SBAAC American Division championship track and field team. But second-year head coach Scott Rolf is both curious and excited about the upcoming season. “I am excited about our numbers so far,” said Rolf, who is in his 24th season of coaching track and field. “However, we are young, inexperienced, and unproven. We definitely have potential and I’m curious about how good we could be with a full and healthy team.” Assisted by Jordan Phipps, Jim Wagner
and Kenny Holter, Rolf said his team can repeat if the “newcomers and young guys can fill the shoes of the talented senior class” that graduated. CM graduates from last year include Bryson Mills, Scott Goings, Tanner Olberding, Jacob Whitaker, Luke Richardson, Christian Poynter, Jacob Triesch, Jeff Passarge and Nick Sadler. Top returnees include regional qualifiers Tyler Beam (shot put) and Nathan Gibbs (pole vault) along with SBAAC champion high jumper Tate Olberding. Other returning athletes include Logan Fisher, Seth Schmidt, Will Calendine, Alec McDonald, Ethan Hagerman, Alex Shelton, Adian Wallace, JT Goings and Connor Hendrickson. Devon Noble, Brendan Lamb and Corey Stulz are the early-season top newcomers for the Falcons. Rolf said his squad will need to avoid excessive injuries to compete with Wilmington and New Richmond for the league title this season.

Wilmington Roger Ilg has coached track and field long enough - 35 years total and 31 with the WHS girls program - to know depth and not necessarily frontline individuals make for a good team. As the season nears, Ilg believes he has a few front-line individuals. He’s hoping to develop that depth in order to compete with New Richmond and Western Brown for the SBAAC American Division title. “Track is sport that requires quality depth,” Ilg said. “I am not sure we have enough … only time will tell.”

Regardless, Ilg said his squad will be “competitive and have fun doing it” in 2019. Cayleigh Vance, Sylena Baltazar and Katie Lambcke are a trio of All-SBAAC athletes who return to lead the way for the Lady Hurricane, who finished third in the league last season.

Division runnerup in 2018, Blanchester head coach Tony Blevins believes his Wildcats are poised to take the top spot in 2019. “We should contend for a league title,” he said. The 12-year boys coach said BethelTate, Georgetown, Williamsburg and Clermont Northeastern all have solid teams and will be fighting it out for National Division supremacy. “We have a good balance of sprinters, mid-distance and distance runners and we have a lot of experience returning,” the
coach said. Derick Bowman, Lucas Thacker, Tyler Holland, Ricky Davis and Matt Grogg are seniors leading the way for BHS. Tanner Creager and Brady Phillips are underclassmen who will play key roles in the success of the team. Blevins, assisted by Sara Estrada, said Clayton Schirmer and Hunter Browning did not run last season but will have big impacts this spring. Other newcomers of note are Tanner Kellerman, Cameron Gibson and Carter Stevens.

Girls From page 11
Bowman are lead jumpers; and Vance, Lauren Heard and Aaliyah Huff are the top throwers. Rhianna Madden is the top hurdler. Ilg said a few very talented individuals chose not to return to the team this season but newcomers Kaitlynn Hickey, Madison Rickman and Jasmine Jamiel will help fill the void.
Clinton-Massie A.J. Houseman is the lone senior on the Clinton-Massie girls track and field team. Coach Dean Richardson, in his fourth year as head coach at the varsity level, says his Lady Falcons are working hard. “We are a young team,” he said. “We just need to continue to work hard in practice and we will see improvements throughout the season.” Houseman, Emma Muterspaw and Nora Voisey are first-team All-SBAAC all-stars returning this season. All three were members of the 4x800meter relay. Muterspaw was a regional qualifier in cross country this fall. Molly Lynch, Rylee Richardson and Ally Wellman are members of last year’s regional qualifying 4x200-meter relay team that returns. Patience Chowning, who did not run track last season, returns to the program this season. Kenley Robinson and Ashley Doyle also are key newcomers for the Lady Falcons. Massie was fifth last season in the SBAAC American Division. Richardson is assisted by Brian Mudd, Scott Rolf, Jordan Phipps, Jim Wagner, Jimmy Brady and Ken Holter. The main loss from last year’s team is Katie Hughes, a multi-sport AllSBAAC all-star who is now a standout runner at Wilmington College. Richardson said Western Brown and New Richmond are the team’s to be in the league this season.
East Clinton East Clinton girls track and field coach Michael Fritz is excited about the prospects of a strong season for the Lady Astros. “On behalf of myself and the coaching staff, we are very excited about this upcoming season,” said Fritz. “We have some girls who are very dedicated and talented. “Unfortunately, not having Steve Sodini coach this season is a major blow to the program. That being said, I feel we have made a great coaching staff this season by adding Bob Henson as our boys head coach and adding assistants Bob Malone and Janielle Runyon. We will also benefit greatly from adding former Wilmington College track standouts Pierce Burnam and Taylor Wylie to our staff. I believe this will be one of the most successful season we have had at East Clinton in quite some time.” East Clinton was sixth in the SBAAC last season and has the smallest squad in Fritz’s six years as head coach. But he says this may be the most talented collection of athletes he’s had in Lees Creek. “We have some very talented underclassmen,” he said. “On top of that, we have great talent and leadership from our upperclassmen.” Emma Malone, Brittney Wheeler, Rhylee Luttrell, Paige Bowman and Alexandria Hughes all finished in the top six in the SBAAC last season in various events. Newcomers Carah Antek, Myah Antek, Mackenzie Campbell and Madison Cox will contribute, Fritz said. Blanchester is the league favorite, Fritz said. His squad can contend for the title if it can stay injury-free.
Coach Tony Blevins, in his 14th season, said Williamsburg “is probably the easy favorite to win the league; they have almost everyone back.” And the Ladycats lost several key performers including Asia Baldwin, a four-time runner of the year in the conference, distance record holder Savannah Rhodes, and the versatile Mandy Gerlach “will be hard to replace,” said Blevins. The coach isn’t going to just hand the league trophy to the Wildcats of Clermont County, though. “We have more depth this year after running with a shoestring roster the last couple of years,” he said. “It will

be hard to replace what we lost. I think we will be better than expected.” Assisted by Sara Estrada, Blevins said Regan Ostermeier and Olivia Gundler are key senior returnees who will not allow BHS to relinquish the crown easily. Blevins expects both seniors to establish new school records in their events this coming season. “We also have a lot of freshmen who are showing good potential,” he said. Ally Davis, Shilynn Massey, Becca Kratzer and Makenzie Cottle are other key performers returning for BHS.

2019 Clinton County Spring Preview: lacrosse News Journal
Wilmington There are 21 returning letter-winners for the Wilmington High School lacrosse team this season. Head coach Adam Shultz is hoping an influx of experience newcomers helps the Hurricane build on a 7-9 record from 2018. “Some of our freshman athletes are bringing two years of experience from middle school,” said Shultz, who will be assisted this season by Austin Gray and Cory Hogsett. Conner Mitchell is the top returning player. He was a Region 8 Division II honorable mention player who scored 13 goals and won 115 faceoffs in 2018. Among the top returning players
are Justus Farris, Chris Custis, Canon Ford, Jacob Frazier, Logan Frazier and Sam Eastes. Key Newcomers are Bailey McVey, Elijah Martini, Bryson McVey, Jude Martin, Austin Pagett, Dylan Piatt, Barrett Powell, Logan Salitan and Donovan Vires. Wilmington will have to replace Conner Barton, a two-time Region 8 Div. III honorable mention goalkeeper, Ridgedon Beam (team-best 42 ground balls), Patrick Black, Bricen Cook, Cody Cravens, Blake Frazier and Destry Powell. Shultz said the Hurricane offense is playing “extremely unselfish” but he is concerned with the squad’s stick skills and preseason injuries. Mariemont is the team to beat in the Southwest region, the WHS coach said.
