How long have you coached basketball? I have coached basketball for 26 years. I started coaching boys basketball at Southern High School.
What motivates you to coach? I love working with kids and teaching the game of basketball! I also love the
competition! When you finish playing, there is still a competitive drive within you that needs to be filled. I
have found coaching to be the answer for me.
How do you use basketball to disciple your players? I want my players to grow in their relationship with
Christ. We have a devotional every Monday as well as daily prayers. I believe it is important for my players
to know they can trust me and I always stay true to my word.
What is your biggest goal in building the girls basketball program? To always give it our best effort and get
the program back to State. We have a great group of girls who can accomplish that this year. They need to
believe in each other and work hard to prove to the doubters! When people watch us play, I hope they come
away with "that team gives it their all every single possession!" If we do that, we will achieve our
goals! Play with class and dignity!
What makes you laugh out loud? I love laughing so it doesn't take much. I have a good time with pretty
much everyone. I will even laugh at bad jokes!

On Tuesday, December 8th, the boys JV basketball team hosted Shelby County for their first game
of the season. Both teams were shaking off the cobwebs in the first quarter, with CAL down 78. Everyone gained momentum in the second quarter, entering the locker room at halftime, tied 22-22. To
end the 3rd quarter, CAL had pulled ahead 38-36 but Shelby County was still hangin’ in there. However,
CAL outscored their visitors again and won the quarter to post a final score of 49-43 WIN. Scoring was led
by Ryan Lagestee with 14 points; others on the board were Stephen Wilson – 9; Kaden Weiter – 8; Milton
Wright – 5; Austin Carr – 4; Hayden Paas – 3; Chase Passafiume, Matthew Duvall, Austin Richardson each
with 2.
On Thursday, the JV boys traveled to the big gym at Ballard High school. This game was a tight battle from
the start, as CAL was down 9-8 after the first quarter. Both teams played a very physical game and CAL
kept up the battle with halftime score of CAL down 24-22. Starting the 3rd quarter, Ballard used their quickness to widen the margin, ending the quarter with the Ballard lead 36-26. CAL continued to fight but just
couldn’t reduce that margin. CAL lost 57-46. Great effort by all. Scores by Lagestee – 17; Carr – 9; Marshall – 6; Wilson – 6; Dupps – 4; Weiter, Paas each with 2.

Four games in one week and here’s how it went:

On Monday, December 7th, the boys freshmen team hosted the Oldham County Colonels in a match-up that
left the bench shallow due to choir concert. Our team scored 17 points in the first quarter. But, the boys
fought and worked hard to fend off the visitors who battled to within the 10 point margin. CAL won their
second contest 49-39. Scoring by Carr – 13; Wright – 10; Wilson -9; Duvall – 7; Miller – 6; Dupps 2; Nate
Clark – 2
On Thursday, our team traveled to Ballard High School to take on the Bruins. Our boys started off slow, letting their opponent jump out to a 9-0. But this team did not let the Bruins get the best of them, as they
fought back to end the quarter up 14-13. Using good fundamentals and good ole fashioned hustle, our Centurions held the lead at halftime 22-16. Even though Ballard had a deep bench, CAL was able to stretch their
lead in the 3rd quarter to 42-25. The Centurions did not let their foot off the gas on this one and continued
their hustle until the end with a decided victory over Ballard: 59-35 WIN. Go CAL!
On Saturday, CAL hosted Holy Cross. The Centurions were physically bigger than their opponent and the
score showed it with 1st quarter lead of 19-8. Both teams were slower in the second half, where the halftime
score was 25-15. After halftime, Holy Cross came out and scored a quick 4 points to test the CAL response. And respond they did, with 18 points to end the 3rd quarter up 43-28. This game was a full team effort with a WIN 61-33. Scores by Wilson – 11; Carr – 9; Duvall – 8; Richardson -8; Dupps -6; Payne – 5;
Miller – 5; Weiter – 4; Clark – 3; Trent Wilburn -2

Our 7th graders split two games last week beating St.
Margaret Mary 7th grade and losing to Holy Trinity 8th
grade.
St. Margaret Mary invaded our red gym on Tuesday,
December 8. After a competitive first half, our Centurions turned on the jets in the third quarter outscoring
our opponent 13 to 0 to effectively put the game away.
Final score: CAL 40, St. Margaret Mary 29. Brandt
Babin destroyed all comers by scoring at will in the
paint. He finished with 14 points in about 12 minutes
of work. Stephen Wearsch and Babin controlled the boards pulling down 6 rebounds each. St. Margaret Mary
couldn't stop the balanced offensive CAL attack as Caleb Hawley, Conner Haun, Cole Thompson, and
Wearsch each scored 5 points. Haun and guard Jeremy Raines each grabbed 3
rebounds.
Holy Trinity 8th grade team visited our home court on Thursday, December
10. The bigger older team proved too much for our Centurions as we came
away with a 39-26 loss. One bright spot for CAL was Brayden Daniels, who
uncorked 8 points and showed flashes of his state tournament brilliance during last years run up to the state finals. Cole Thompson had 6 points. Thompson has now hit at least one three pointer in the last eight consecutive games.
Stephen Wearsch proved consistent again netting 6 points and 5 rebounds.
Trey Jorgensen, Babin, and Hawley each scored 2 points.
Your 7th grade Centurions next play at home Thursday, December 17 in the red gym at 630pm against Spencer County. Come out and watch the boys as they wrap up the first half of the season.
