Chicago Cubs first baseman Mark Grace jokes around with some teammates during the Cubs' first full-squad workout Tuesday in Mesa, Ariz.

FORT MYERS, Fla. - jose Canseco was missing from the Boston Red Sox first full-squad workout Tuesday morning, and General Manager Dan Duquette was miffed. "Jose has a flair for a dramatic entrance so when he does show, I'm sure it will be very dramatic," Duquette said. As the day wore on, the mystery deepened. Canseco lives just two hours away on Florida's east coast and hadn't called to say he'd be late. He had signed a twoyear, $9 million contract in the offseason, so that wasn't a problem. Canseco finally arrived at 1:10 p.m~ "I don't Jose Canseco know what's so dramatic about this," Canseco said. The Red Sox reporting date for pitchers and catchers was Monday. The rest of the team was due Tuesday. "These guys need to make a commitment to the team and the time to do that is when you start spring training," Duquette said. "They owe it to the rest of the team to show up on time." WHERE'S RICKEY?: San Diego Padres officials didn't know as of late Tuesday whether Rickey Henderson will be at camp for a

Ex-Redskin Fisher finds happiness in IHI BY TIM PENNINGTON Enquirer contributor

Craig Fisher has played different roles in his six-year pro hockey career: rising star to has-been to the comeback kid. The former Miami University star says what's different about his most recent rise in stardom as a member of the Orlando Solar Bears of Cra:g Fisher the International Hockey League is maturity. 'Tm much more ready to accept what's happening to me now at age 25 than I was at 18," said Fisl:er, whose team plays the Cyclones at 7:30 p.m. today in the r_..,..,.rlonco

Solar Bears at Cyclones 7:30p.m., WSAI-AM 1530 Ill> Tickets: Plenty remained Tuesday night. Game is at the Gardens. of the National Hockey League during his sophomore year isn't something he regrets, though. "When I turned pro right out of college, I probably was not ready for everything that was coming at me," he said. "There was some off-ice things happening, too, and maybe it was a little too much for me to deal with." Add to that a bum shoulder that never seemed to heal and Fisher was of the NHL andAmencan playi~g in CapeoutBreton of the

monton in May 1991 and then to Winnipeg for cash in December 1993. "You're a hot prospect one day, and the next you're not. It was very tough mentally for me." The 6-3, 180-pounder has zero points in eight NHL games with Philadelphia and Winnipeg. Despite playing in two Calder Cup finals in the AHL, Fisher's climb back up the hockey ladder didn't start until he signed last year with Indianapolis, where he had 53 goals and 40 assists. Today, he is the IHL's top scorer with 48 goals and 41 assists in 54 games. Fisher also leads the league in game-winning goals (9) and power-play goals (19). "Some of the things Craig does

just amazes me," said Orlan coach Curt Fraser. "He's extrem ly good around the net, but he pa the price with his body. His helm is always flying off because gu are blasting him." Fisher's goal is to get back the NHL, but he isn't ready jump when the phone rings. Chicago, which signed him as free agent in 1994, owns his Nl rights, but its defensive-mind style may not be suited to Fishe "I've got the luxury of makin~ decent Jiving in this league, so would have to be a good situati' for me to make any changes," â€˘ said. "But I would love to go ba to the NHL and prove myself over again."

Four locals on all-star team The Cincinnati Enquirer

All-State Division I basketball players Nate Turner of Middletown and Moeller's jason Grunkemeyer will play for the Ohio team in tonight's annual McDonald's Ohio-Kentucky All-Star series. D.j. Christian, Withrow's 6foot-7 center and Nathan Copas of ~orth Adams, also were selected to play for the Ohio team that is coached by George jackson of Withrow. Tipoff is 8 p.m. at Shawnee State University in Portsmouth.

Fehring to Navy All-American swimmer Pete Fehring of St. Xavier High School has accepted an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis,

W.d. During the 1996 swimming seasen, Fehring broke the St. X school record in the 100 breaststroke, covering the distance in 58.27 seconds. A member of the Bombers state champion 200 medley relay team and the second place 200 freestyle relay team, Fehring was named St. Xavier's MVP for 1996.

Collinsworth inducted Former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Cris Collinsworth, a sports talk host for WLW radio, Âˇwill be inducted into the National High School Hall of Fame.

PREP SCENE Archie Griffin, another former Bengal, will join Collinsworth during ceremonies on July 6 in Tarpon Springs, Fla.

Kincaid leads Norwood Chad Kincaid, Norwood's premier distance runner, was in midseason form Wednesday in leading the Indians past Reading and Deer Park in a tri-meet at Norwood. "''d say that Chad is about two seconds ahead of last year in the 1600 and three seconds in the 3200," Norwood track coach Dave Wadley said. "His times today were his best of the year." Kincaid is a legitimate threat to win the Division II state championship in the 1,600 and 3,200 meters. He was ninth in the 3200 last year at the state meet. "This is Chad's senior year and he wants to run both races at the state meet," Wadley said. "It's a tough double but I won't stand in his way."

Five go fast and slow Five schools - Anderson, Harrison, Oak Hills, Turpin and Colerain will play both a fast-pitch and slow-pitch schedule this season. All team will compete in a new six-team league named the Queen City Conference that also includes

Amelia. The number of schools fielding slow-pitch teams continues to dwindle as OHSAA-sanctioned fast-pitch continues to pick up momentum. "We decided to play both to get the girls prepared for 1997 when we'll be in the Greater Miami Conference," Colerain coach Craig Mettey said. "There's a big difference in the sports. The pitcher's mound is only 40 feet compared to 50 in slowpitch and the ball is 12 inches in fast-pitch and only 11 inches in slow-pitch." The Cardinals played fast-pitch in the late 1970s and early 1980s, claiming the district runner up trophy in 1979 and 1980.

Elsewhere ... IJil> Kerry Coombs, Colerain's football coach, has been named an assistant for the South. in the 51st annual Dial Soap All Star Football Classic july 13 at Paul Brown Stadium in Massillon.

Senior center Roman Welter started some last season, and sophomore guard Wiz White should be a key factor. Developing depth will be a key if Fleming continues the pressing, running style the team used with success as last season progressed. ,..,

The Crusaders have tremendous size with the 6-7 Fitz, 6-8 Matt Trenz and 6-5 Tim Green along with the 6-5 Grunkemeyer, who will play shooting guard. A point guard must be found, and the Crusaders will likely miss the outside shooting of Keith Whitson (14 ppg), who transferred to Lakota. Pos. G .G

Chad Kamstra, one of only two returning starters for Elder, averaged 19 6 points and 3 rebounds oer game last season. Kamstra (19.6 ppg, 3.0 rpg). Brad Hargreaves (9.0 ppg, 3.0 rpg) • OUTLOOK: Kamstra and Hargreaves return from last year's sectiona championship squad, but the Panthers lost their top inside threat in tke Kirch and secood-teading scorer Dan Delfendahl to graduation. Junior Rich Roedersheimer, leading rebo~.>nder and scorer on last season's JV team. will join fellow classmale Shawn Murphy to provide the Panthers with decent size. Schoenfeld has proven he can get the most out of a team.

Marshall, a burly power forward, is a good building block. Senior guard Brett Angner started at times last season as did senior forward Andy Holmes [4 ppg), and junior guard Andy Kettler was a standout on junior varsity . NllliiO

Big schools lure 5 players NCAA Division I colleges will sign area stars today By Bob Queenan Post staff reporter

Five boys' hi~h school basketball seniors from the Cincinnati" area are expected to sign national letters of intent today with NCAA Division I teams. They are, in alphabetical order: • Dave Esterkamp, center, La Salle, with Bowling Green. • Jason Grunkemeyer, forward, Moeller, with Ohio U. • ChRd Kam!ltra, guard, Elder, with Tole· do. • Mike Marshall, forward, St. Xavier, with Butler. • Jeff McKinley, guard, Simon Kenton in Independence, Ky., with Louisville. Today is the first day of the fall signing period for boys' and girls' basketball players in high schools and junior colleges. It lasts until Nov. 15. Another basketball signing period is in April. Esterkamp, 6 feet 7, 205 pounds, averaged 16 points and nine rebounds per game last season for La Salle.

"His best basketball is ahead of him and he is still growing," said La Salle coach Dan Fleming. Said Esterkamp; "I like the surroundings at Bowling Green and I believe I will have a chance to make a contribution right away." Grunkemeyer, 6-5, 180, averaged 19.5 points, six rebounds and four assists per game for Moeller last sea. son. "Jason is an outstanding honor student and he is moving to point guard this fall," said Moeller coach Carl Kremer. "He was offered scholarships by Maryland, West Virginia, Davidson and Ball State." Jason Said Grunkemeyer: "I Grunkemeyer chose Ohio University be· cause they have the No. 1.sports administration program in the nation, and (coach) Larry Hunter and his staff are great people." Kamstra, 6-0, 165, averaged 19.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game last season for Elder. He shot 44 percent from three-point range. "He plays defense with great intensity," said Elder coach Joe Schoenfeld. Kamstra, who plans to pursue a business

career at Toledo, also was recruited by Bowling Green, North Carolina-Wilmington and Central Florida. Said Kamstra: "Toledo seemed like the school that wanted me most." Marshall, 6-3, 225, gave up a shot at a major college football career to play basketball. He played linebacker for St. Xavier's football team last year but decided this season to focus exclusively on basketball. He broke the hearts of football recruiters from four Big Ten teams: Illinois, Michigan State, Ohio State and Penn State. "I always knew football played a significant part in my life, but when the time came, basketball would be my choice," said Marshall, "and the time has come." Recruited in basketball by Butler, North Carolina-Wilmington, Davidson and Dayton, Marshall said he chose Butler because he believed he would have the best chance to play right away. He averaged 13.0 points and 8.2 rebounds per game last season. He plans to major in marketing. McKinley, 6-5, 200, is a point guard who averaged 11.4 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.7 assists last season as a playmaker for Simon Kenton.

ROVING STAR Moeller's Grunkemeyer comfortable at any position By Richard Skinner Post staff reporter

ason Grunkemeyer was a point guard from the time his father, former Mt. Healthy High School boys' coach Jake Grunkemeyer, put a basketball in his hand until last season, his first at Moeller High School. After transferring from Mason High School to Moeller last season, he was moved to off. guard because the Crusaders already had a point guard in senior Brad Keating. But Keating graduated, so Moeller head coach Carl Kremer moved Grunkemeyer hack to point ~ard this season. Tho end result: Grunkemeyer is leading the Crusaders in scoring and assists and is a major reason they are off t.o a 10-2 start after finishing 11-lllast season. Grunkemeyer, a 6-foot-5 senior who has already signed a national letter of intent to play at Ohio University, admits he's not the prototypically quick point guard. But rather than creating havoc with his quickness, he does it with his size and court sense. "One of my strengths is that I can penetrate and usually score on my man if he doesn't get help, but if there's a guy open I'll pass it even if I have the shot," he said. "I really like having the ball in my hands and being able to make decisions on the floor." Grunkemeyer's move back to point guard was actually made smoother over the summer, when his AAU coach, Mike Price, wh.o is also the htma boys' basketball coach at Oak Hills, put him at the position. "I really liked his steadiness and his intelligence," Price said. "He knows who's hot and who needs to get the ball, without anyone having to tell him. He really gets everyone involved."

Grunkemeyer played so well at the position he was named AAU all-American for his performance in the AAU national tournament last July. His play has carried over to the high school season. He is averaging 20.2 points per game, which is up from 19.1 as an oftguard last season, and almost four asststs per game. He is also third on the team in rebounding and has the second-most defensive rebounds. "He ctl.n literally play every position on the floor," said Kremer. "If scoring was Jason's primary role he can certainly score more, but he's tremendously unselfish." GrunkemeyPr doesn't shoot as much as most players who average 20 points per game. He takes an average of 11 field-gm1lattempts per game (he's shoot~ ing almost 55 percent from the field). A typical game has him making a couple of three-pointers (he is 19-of-44 from beyond the arc this season), six free throws (he is 74-of-00 from the line) and four two-pointers. "He's quiet about the way he gets his points," Price said. "He's ve-ry efficient." Kromer :mys his biggest complaint is that Grunkemeyer, who averaged 22.1 points per game as a sophomore at Mason and recently surpassed 1,000 career points, doesn't shoot enough. "If I scream at Jason it's for him to take a shot," Kremer said. "He'll create more shots than he tnltes.'' Grunkemeycr, who chose Ohio over Maryland, knows he will move back to off-guard in college because of his lack of speed, but the experience gained at the point will still be beneficial. "It just gives me more versatility," he said. "I definitely feel more confident with the ball in my hands now." So does Moeller.

TOM UHLMANifor The Post

As a point guard, Jason Grunkemeyer, right, is big enough (6 feet 5) to dominate opponents. His coach at Moeller, Carl Kremer, says Grunkemeyer is versatile enough to play any position on the floor.

D ~s key for Moe's

Green By Joe Minster Press Contributor

Moeller High School basketball coach Carl Kremer calls his 6foot-5 forward Tim Green, "the best defensive player I've ever coached in my six years as basketball coach here." And that's high praise coming from a man who certainly has coached many outstanding players, among them Green's two brothers. Chris Green is now at Ohio University and Mike Green attends Miami University at Oxford. "What sets Tim apart is his athleticism and his ability to defend any area of the floor," Kremer said. "He's equally effective on defense against r,maller players and also against taller post players because of his quickness." Green, the son of Kevin and Nancy Green of Loveland, is a 17year-old senior who is an honor student with a grade point average of 3.75 who rates 16th in a class of 220. Among the statistical leaders in many departments, Tim pays very little attention to that kind of information. "I worry about wins and losses and not about statistics," he said. Green is one reason the Crusaders have compiled a 10-2 record that includes an unblemished 6-0 slate good for the current lead in the Greater Catholic League. Like his two brothers before him, Tim wears uniform No. 42 for Moeller. His overall performances on the hardwood are impressive, headed by a 2-to-1 ratio of assists to turnovers. He tops the Crusaders in steals, with 29, along with showing the

way in deflections by a wide margin, with 40. In a remarkable display of accuracy, he has hit on 2348 three-pointers for 4 7. 9 percent and 33-64 two-pointers for 51.5 percent. He's also grabbed about four rebounds per game and made good on 33-41 free throws for a percentage of 80.4. Jason Grunkemeyer, 6-foot-5 senior point guard, leads Moeller with a 20.3 average, followed by Green at 14.3 and Ted Fitz at 11. Fitz is the club's leading rebounder with 8.9 per game, while Matt Trenz is next at 6. 9 and Grunkemeyer with 5.4. Moeller, which ha~ lost only to Springfield Central Catholic and to CleH:Iand Benedtctine, is ~cor·

ing at the pace of 6S.!l pt•iltls a game while permitting ib oppo nent~ just 53 point~ per cunte!>t. "One reason for our ~ucce~s i~ outstanding team unity," Kn·mt.T pointed out. "Our watl:hv.ord is 'arete,' Greek for doing your very best. And that's exactly what all of our players striH· tu dn .dl the time." This week ~1uelkr plap at 6:15 p.m. Jan. 20, when the team faces LaSalle in a crucial c;CL battle that will be part of a fivegame league bill at the Lni\ ~r~ity of Cincinnati's Shoemahr ( d1ter.

Âˇ Bearcats From Page 18

"He always says something funny," Long said. "If he's not in a good mood, it's got to be something really bad to get him down." On the road, Brannen looks more like a grunge rock star than a basketball player. He wears an earring, a baseball cap turned backwards and a flannel shirt. He's the most vocal player on the bus, often trying to force his teammates to listen to count~y music against their will. One of his favorite targets is senior co-captain Keith Gregor, whom he calls "pretty boy." Brannen doesn't fit .the stereotype of the straight-arrow from the Greater Catholic League. "I'm a good Catholic kid in the sense that I respect God and I respect my parents and my family," Brannen said, "but in the other sense, I'm going to have a good time. That's how I've always been." It didn't take long for Bran-

nen to realize he was not 'going to produce the 25 points per game he did at Moeller. He saw the offensive ability of Fortson and Darnell Burton and knew the Bearcats had all the scorers they needed. , So he found his niche - rebounding and defense. "That's what we need him to do right now," said UC coach Bob Huggins. When Fortson and Long get into foul trouble, it's up to Brannen - 20 pounds heavier than he was last year - to play tough until they get back. Against South Florida Saturday, Brannen committed three fouls in about two minutes and was proud of it. "I do beat on them," Brannen said. "I earn my fouls." The word around town last year was that Brannen was going to transfer. Not true, he says. He made a commitment and he intended to stick with it. This year, he's glad he did. "I knew it wasn't going to be easy," Brannen said. "But I knew eventuallv I'd nlav"

Sarah Schloss had 19 points to a lead a Cougar team that held a 60-45 lead with just four minutes to play. Amy Ashbrock scored 15

for MND, while Julie Costello had 10 and Michelle Tuchfarber added eight. "It was a combination of things," Mack said. "We were in charge of the game when we started missing free throws and making turnovers against their press. You can't blame any player auJ ::~uy pat ti~ouLu tltiug, Le~odt•'i( everything seemed to go wrong for us." The defeat was just the fourth for the Cougars, who posted a 19-4 record, easily edip~ing their 7-14 tel••'•d );,,, yt:.H MNO also won the Girl~ Greater Cincinnati League Scarlet Division with an 11-2 league record.

Senior Jason Gruukemeyer llli!.:.td a 14footer in the final seconds that would have put Moeller in front, 60-59, with time running out. "It was a well-played high school game," said Moeller coach Carl Kremer. "George Jackson (Withrow coach) deserves all the credit in the world for the way he handles his team, which played hard all the way but di'phyed gnnci ~rortsmamhip, too."

Withrow shows Aiken who's the boss Tigers, Moeller square off Friday By Bill Peterson Post staff reporter

At tournament time, the Withrow High School boys' basketball team usually is tough to beat. But the Tigers lost a heartbreaker in the second round of the sectional last season to La Salle. Aiken also lost a close sectional game last season to Elder and figured it could do damage this season. After all, it lost two close games to Withrow despite taking only nine free throws, to Withrow's 68, in those two games.

But when those two teams met Monday night in the second round of the Di· vision I sectional at Shoemaker Center, Withrow showed that the balance of power isn't going to change anytime soon. The Tigers nabbed more than twice as many rebounds en route to a 73-54 win over Aiken. Third-seeded Withrow advances to the upper-bracket championship game at 7 p.m. Friday against second-seeded Moeller, a 55-43 winner over Milford earlier Monday at Shoemaker Center. Withrow is going for its third section· al title of the 1990s and its fifth in the last 11 years. The leaders this year are seniors, 6-foot-5 center D.J. Christian and 6-2 swingman Chris Wooten. Christian scored 17 points and

grabbed 14 rebounds, leading Withrow's 35-17 advantage on the boards. Wooten, playing a flying, slashing game, scored 16 points. "I challenged thPm," said head coach George Jackson. "They're our only two seniors and I told them, 'You haven't been consistent leaders all year long.' They can lead by their actions. They've carried us for the last month." Withrow (14-8) has lost three games in Cincinnati this year (to Woodward, St. Xavier and Oak Hills) by a total of seven points. In none of those games did the Tigers shoot better than 39 per· cent. However, Jackson said he feels Withrow can win with that kind of shooting if it rebounds the way it did Monday.

Withrow put up a 10·0 run in the middle of the second period to move ahead, 28-15. From that point, Aiken never was in the game. "We had a lot of shots in the first half that we usually make, but they didn't go in," said Aiken coach Mike Herold, whose team finished 10-9 with three losses to Withrow. "(Withrow) played like a team that had been there before and wanted to go back again." Moeller 08-4) withstood slow-down tactics by an outmanned Milford club. The Crusaders pressured Milford (4-18) through the middle of the game, took a 32-15 lead through three periods and held on as the game opened up in the fourth period. Jason Grunkemeyer led the Crusaders with 15 points.

"I was proud of our kids for keeping their poi~e early," said Moeller coach Carl Kremer. "Late in the game, we lost our concentration. We're going to have to play better Friday night to win." AIKEN WITHROW

Twin towers Moeller's Fitz, Trenz use small secret to help inside By Joe Minster Press Contributor Moeller High School's twin towers- 6-foot-7 Ted Fitz and 6-foot-8 Matt Trenz- are two good reasons the Crusader!> have emerged as one of the top high school basketball teams in Greater Cincinnati. Coach Carl Kremer, who has led his club to a 143 (9-1, first place Greater Catholic League South Division) record, would be the first to pay tribute to Fitz and Trenz. The two seniors are not only top athletes, but also honor roll students. "They've developed into very good players with the help of assistant coach Mike Sussli," Kremer said. "Both Matt and Ted are fine young men who should go on to do well in college, whether they decide to participate in sports or not. "We owe a great deal to Sussli for the work he's done with Trenz and Fitz this year after serving as assistant to Pete Gillen at Xavier University several years ago. We were very fortunate to get Mike on our staff." The odd part about the twin tower-coach relationship, Sussli stands at least a foot shorter than either Fitz or Trenz. Yet he has helped teach them tenacity inside, drawing on his experience coaching the likes of NBA All-Star forward Tyrone Hill when he was at XU. Sussli termed Trenz and Fitz "quality young men with great attitudes who are team players and good listeners. "They've both shown steady improvement and I'm pleased with their progress." Moeller lost its only game last week to St. Xavier, 58-49, but has two contests this week. Both will be tests for the Crusaders. They will travel to Elder Friday night for a big GCL game and then return home Saturday night to host a strong Sycamore team possibly headed for the Greater Miami Conference title. The winner takes home the traditional Old Oaken Bucket. "The Elder game is a big one for us, but I'm looking forward to facing Sycamore Saturday, too," said Trenz, who transferred from Sycamore to Moeller this season. The 18-year-old son of Paul and Jane Trenz of Montgomery, Trenz is headed for Wheaton (Ill.) College, a highly-rated Division III school near Chicago where he expects to play basketball. "We've really stepped up this year and we've been playing very well," Trenz said. "Hopefully, we can continue to play well in our final three regular-sea-

Moeller's defense dominates Elder Green leads Crusaders' run By Richard Skinner Post staff reporter

it.> / "/t,

' I,

Moeller High School1s basketball team plays defense with a passion. That defense, led by senior forward Tim Green, was the reason Moeller was able to beat Elder, 73-60, Friday night at Moeller. The score was 46-46 entering the fourth quarter. But Moeller held Elder to one point for the first 4:53 of the quarter, building a 57-47 lead with 3:07 remaining. Elder never got closer than six the rest of the way. "I'm not sure if we've played a ·great offensive game yet, but I know we haven't played a bad defensive one," said Moeller coach Carl Krem:··. Green, a 6-foot-5 senior forward, held Elder's leading scorer, senior Chad Kamstra, who was averaging 23.3 points per :game, without a point in the fourth quarter. Kamstra never even got off a good shot in the final quarter. "Tim's probably the best defensive player I've ever "coached," Kremer said. "We kept him off Kamstra in the first half to keep him fresh and keep him out of foul trouble, but 'when we needed him, he did a ·great job." · Green scored 10 of his game. high 20 points in the fourth quarter, including a three-point~er 20 seconds into the quarter 'that gave Moeller the lead for good, 49-46. Green credited his teammates for helping defend Kamstra. . "They set all kinds of screens ~for him, but we noticed on film that he goes wide around the ,.screen and my teammates kept ~making sure he did that," Green . said. "That gave me time to catch up to him by the time he caught the ball." Defense also got Elder back into the game after it fell behind . 17-6 and 19-8 in the first quarter while playing a loose zone. Moeller consistently found itself taking, and often making, wide-open perimeter jump shots. Elder changed to a man-to-man defense and a fullcourt press and was able to rally to tie, 29-29, by halftime. Elder then forged a seven-

quarter before Moeller rallied to tie behind seven points from reserve forward Adam Dant. "They just finally wore down," Kremer said. "We did a terrible job with our press offense and I take full responsibility for that. They really had us rattled." Moeller improved to 9-2 overall and 6-0 in the Greater Catholic League. "We win ugly, we're fully aware of that," Kremer said, "but as long as we win, we'll take it." ELDER

3-DIMENSIONAL Fitz is Moeller's man for all sports seasons By Bob Queenan Post staff reporter

ed Fitz has been a starter for the Moeller High School football, basketball and baseball teams.

··

He is the first athlete at Moeller to ~tart in three sports since 1987, when Ricky Bennett played the same sports. Fitz, 6 feet 7, 185 pounds, is a wide receiver in football, a power forward in basketball and a pitcher in baseball. He is an even better student than he is an athlete. He ranks ninth in his senior class with a cumulative grade average of 94.6 on a scale of 100. Fitz scored more than 1,300 on his Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and earned a 31 on his American College Test (ACT).

MARK BOWEN/for The Post

Six-foot-seven Ted Fitz averages 11.1 points and 9.0 rebounds for the Crusaders.

"I know a lot of guys play three sports, but I don't think there are many starters in all the major sports," said Moeller football coach Steve Klonne. Klonne said the challenge of playing three sports is different than it was 10 years ago because of all the off-season conditioning requirements.

MARK BOWEN/for The Post

Ted Fitz, right, listens to from coach Carl Kremer, who calls Fitz 'a leader.' In football this season, Fitz caught 40 passes for 506 yards and one touchdown. The score came against Elder. Said Klonne: "Ted was a true possession receiver for us. He developed a lot of confidence in himself during the football season and that has carried over to basketball." Carl Kremer, Moeller's basketball coach, calls Fitz a leader. Fitz averages 11.1 points per game and is second in the Greater Catholic League

in rebounding at 9.0 per game. "Ted has a tremendous heart and will to win," said Kremer. "His motor is always running." Fitz, a right-hander, was a starting pitcher on the Crusaders' baseball team last season. He was 1-1 with a 3.50 ERA. Fitz says he hopes to attend the University of Dayton on an academic scholarship. "I plan to study chemjcal engineering," he said.

.White comes to rescue to lead La Salle rally over GCL rival Elder By Bob Queenan Post staff reporter

;:a_J~9S

La Salle High School sophom·ore guard Wiz White knew his basketball teammates were in trouble Friday night after the first half when they trailed Elder by 13 points. So the 16-year-old, who had played just four varsity basketball games, took over offensively and defensively in the second half,_ keying a 95-92 Lancers victory. "I saw my team down auJ.:;: !mew I had to step up," said White, who scored all of his 21 points in the second half. He hit six of six from the field, including all three of his three-point shots, in the third quarter as the Lancers (5-0) roared from be. hind to outscore Elder, 35-17, and take a 65-60 lead heading into the final quarter. White also controlled Elder's best outside shooter, Chad Kamstra. The Elder senior forward scored 29 points, but made just 2 of 12 three-point tries. "He is a great shooter," said White. "I knew he'd jump me, fake me like he was going to drive and then step back and fire the three. "I knew all I had to do was get in his face and make him rush just a little." Said La Salle coach Dan Fleming: "White did a good job offensively, but what he did to Kamstra was the key. Wiz made him work very hard for every one of those points he got." Elder (4-1) used an 8-0 run at the start of the second quarter to break out to a 43-30 halftime lead on the 10 points of Brad Hargreaves and Kamstra's nine. But Elder let La Salle dictate the tempo in the second half. Elder often rushed shots, missed good shots and committed fouls trying to make up for the miss with a steal. "I didn't do a good enough job of reorganizing us in the third quarter," said Elder coach Joe Schoenfeld. "We knew White could defend because we'd seen him take the best player their opponents had and shut him down." Elder cut the Lancers' lead to two points several ·times in the final quarter and trimmed the deficit to one, 83-82, with 1:06 remaining on three of four free throws by Matt Cristopfel. But Dave Esterkamp hit eight of eight free throws and White hit a pair to erase Elder's hopes. "I kept thinking about the froq.t end of a bonus I missed with no time on the clock last year at Purcell and it cost us the game," said Esterkamp, who converted 17 of 17 from the line. "I practiced all summer to avoid that."

Esterkamp finished with 28 points and teammates Craig Conley and Roman Welter each scored 18. Welter scored 12 of his points and had seven offensive rebounds in the first half. ELDER at La SALLE

ÂˇGCL South has lots of weapons By Richard Skinner Post staff reporter

La Salle (5-0) isn't the only Greater Catholic League South Division team that's off to a fast start. The other three schools - Elder, Moeller and St. Xavier- have a composite 11-3 record, with only one of the losses coming outside of the league. That came when Moeller lost to Springfield Central Catholic, 54-51, on Saturday. "I think the league is stronger than a lot of people thought it would be," said La Salle coach Dan Fleming. Last season, La Salle and Elder won sectional championships and St. Xavier had one of the area's best regular-season records, 15-5. Each of the four schools is led by a Division I college signee. Elder has guard Chad Kamstra (Toledo). La Salle has forward Dave Esterkamp (Bowling Green). Moeller has swingman Jason

Grunkemeyer (Ohio). St. Xavier has forward Mike Marshall (Butler). , But it's been the play of at least one complementary player per team that is the reason for the four teams' fast starts. La Salle has gotten a major lift from senior guard Craig Conley, who is averaging a team-high 20.8 points per game. Elder senior guard Brad Hargreaves is averaging 14 points per game and combines with Kamstra (27.7 ppg) to average 42 of the Panthers' 72 points per game. Moeller has gotten a lift inside from 6-foot-7 senior center Ted Fitz (15.2 ppg) and 6-5 senior forward Tim Green (11.8 ppg) to go along with Grunkemeyer (19 ppg) from the outside. St. Xavier has been playing without Marshall since the second game of the season. He broke his hand in practice and will be out a few more weeks. Rich Allendorf, a 6-9 junior center, has picked up the slack, averaging 13.5 points per game. Âˇ

"That would have been the backbreaker," said Leon. Instead, Woodward's Sylvester Allen drilled back-to-back wide-open three-pointers from almost exactly the same spot on the left wing (sandwiched around a Sycamore basket) to give the Bulldogs a 55-52 lead with 46 seconds remaining.

Moeller's celebration was put on hold Friday night. But rather than getting angry, the Crusaders should have gotten Angner. Senior guard Brett Angner and his St. Xavier teammates denied Moeller a chance to clinch a share of the GCL South title, upsetting the Crusaders, 58-49, at St. X. . Moeller was No. 2 in the city's Division I poll and previously unbeaten in GCL play. St. X was ranked No.7. Angner was the key figure in the win, scoring 12 of his 18 points after halftime as St. X overcame a one-point halftime deficit and pulled away. "He did all kinds of things for us," said St. X coach Scott Martin of Angner. "We had him chasing Uason) Grunkemeyer and he did an excellent job on defense. He did an excellent job getting the ball inside, he handled the ball for us, and he hit big shots." St. X's win, combined with Elder's upset of La Salle, puts St. X alone in second, one game behind Moeller in the GCL South.

Grunkemeyer chooses OU BY NEIL SCHMIDT Enquirer contributor

1/!J,/15

Moeller High School senior Jason Grunkemeyer became the first local basketball player to commit to a major college, verbally committing Friday to play at Ohio University. He picked OU .over Maryland, Richmond, West Virginia, Davidson and Ball State, all of which offered him scholarships. "OU recruited me since my sophomore year," he said. "I made my official visit last weekend, and I really liked it a lot."· Grunkemeyer, a 6-foot-5 senior point guard, averaged 19.5 points, six rebounds and five assists as a junior-, shooting

nearly 60 percent. He played in the prestigious Nike Summer Basketball League in Indianapolis; the top 125 players nationally are invited. He played on an AAU team that finished fifth in the nation and was selected first-team AllAmerican. Led by NBA lottery · pick Gary Trent, OU made an NCAA appearance in March 1994 and was· ranked 14th in the nation after winning the Preseason NIT last season. "Jason did choose OU over Maryland," Moeller coach Carl Kremer ·said. "(The Bobcats) certainly put themselves in the national spotlight."

The miracle of Moeller-land By Joe Minster

i-i-1.5"

Press Contributor

In 12 years of coaching, Carl Kremer has never been a part of a finish like this one. MOELLER's coach watched in amazement as Jason Grunkemeyer's four-point play in the final five seconds turned defeat into victory for his Crusaders. Final score: Moeller 77, Glen Este 76. But that was just a part of the unbelievable finish in the Crusader gym that left Moeller with an 8-8 record. With 27 seconds to play, Moeller had the ball out of bounds trailing by three. Keith Whitson drove for the basket and missed, but Brad Keating tipped the ball first and then Whitson tipped it. Keating grabbed the ball and passed to Grunkemeyer, who turned loose a 25-footer and was fouled as the ball swished through. "I knew Grunkemeyer :would make the free throw," Kremer said. And he was right. I In the game, Grunkemeyer had 25 points, nine rebounds and six assists, while Whitson added 18 points and Ted Fitz 12. No fewer than 19 three-pointers found the mark, 12 by Glen Este and seven by Moeller. And both teams were zeroed in at the foul line, the Crusaders making 14-of-17 and Glen Este 18-of-23. · "We'd been off for eight days and we went to a full court press when we didn't play

crisply," Kremer noted. Four tough games face the Crusaders in the next two weeks, starting with Elder at home Friday. Saturday, Kremer's team will travel to Sycamore and next week they'll face La Salle Feb. 17 and St. Xavier in their regular-season finale Feb. 18. Grunkemeyer paces Moeller with a 19point average,followed by Whitson at 15.1, Fitz at 10.4 and Keating at 10.2. Fitz is the No. 1 rebounder with 7.3 a game, while · Keating and Grunkemeyer are the playmakers with 5.0 and 3.5 assists, respectively. Moeller will meet Anderson Feb. 22 in the first round of the Cincinnati Division I sectionals at UC's Shoemaker Center. Winner of that game will play the. Elder-Aiken winner.

Moeller dominates Spartans lS

BY DAVE SCHUTTE !Enquirer contributor 1 f Some may refer to Friday's game between Moeller and Roger Bacon as a typic_al Gr~ater Catholic League physical struggle wtth netther team willing to give an inch. Others will disagree and look back at the game as ugly, with 31 turnovers, 30-percent shooting and inept play by both teams. Overcoming a 33-percent shooting night (21-for-63) and 14 turnovers, the Moeller Crusaders managed to pull out a 62-49 victory ove_r the Roger Bacon Spartans before a near capacity crowd at Moeller. "We haven't shot well in the first three games this season," Moeller coach C~rl Krel?er said. "Both teams played hard and this was JUSt another physical GCL game." Roger Bacon coach Bill Brewer had a similar explanation for the sloppy play of the Spartans. "Give Moeller credit," Brewer said. "They had a great game plan and executed it well. I contribute our bad shooting (18-of-52) to their 路tough defense." Moeller's Tim Green turned in a great fourth-quarter performance, while Eugene Land of Roger Bacon was steady despite double- and triple-teaming. Moeller senior guard Jason Grunkemeyer, who committed to Ohio University before the season, was on target in the first quarter for the Crusaders. His nine points were instrumental in the Crusaders' 20-12 advantage. But Grunkemeyer wasn't a factor the rest of the game. The Spartan defense held him to only two points the second half and a season-low 15 overall. "Their high zones took Jason out of the game " Kremer said. "This made us attack from 'other areas on the court. " With Land scoring 10 points in the second quarter, Roger Bacon pulled even at ?7-27 but late field goals by senior forward Ttm Green enabled Moeller to pull out to a 35-29 half-time advantage. 1 Turnovers and poor shooting dominated the third quarter, with Moeller hitting just 3-of-15 from the field and the Spartans only 1-of-10. Moeller held a 43-35 lead going into the final eight minutes. That's when Green took over and proved to be the difference.
