With only backlight illuminating the bowling lanes, the color of neon Hawaiian shirts, flowers, hula skirts, and other luau-themed decorations screamed fun in the sun at the 15th Annual City vs. County Bowl-A-Thon, which raised more than $17,000 to benefit Prevail, a victims’ assistance nonprofit in Hamilton County. “The bowling event is our second largest fundraiser,” said Natasha Robinson of Prevail. “This event is also very laid back and fun, so it gives the city of Noblesville and Hamilton County Employees a chance to raise awareness for Prevail and have a good time. The work that we do is very serious, so it's nice to connect with them with all the laughter at this event.” In its 15 years, the fundraiser has raised about $300,000 for Prevail. While the fundraiser is about raising money for a good cause, it’s also about the bragging rights. This year, the City won bragging rights over the County in the Bowl-A-Thon that had The Times photo by Sadie Reecer “Spare Me” team — made up of Allison Keeler (from left), Jayson Higbee, Jeremy Head, Sheilah Stevens, Stephanie Ruggles, employees at Hamilton County Community Corrections — won the lane-decoration award during Saturday's 15th Annual City vs. County Bowl-A-Thon to benefit Prevail at Coopers Stardust Bowl in Noblesville.

Chopped and served on a corn tortilla with fresh cilantro, salsa verde and onions, she described beef tongue as “absolutely delicious.” “I started offering it because it was stuff that I liked. The lengua I had never had. I did that out of total curiosity, but with the livers, I grew up eating chicken livers,” said Perrine, a Noblesville native and 1981 Noblesville High School graduate. “We just try to bring people back to good comfort and homemade food.” Ginger’s Café opened in 2007, and Perrine worked there from the beginning before taking over in 2010. “I added to the eclectic mess,” she said joking. “But we take a lot of customer requests, too, and (the lengua and chicken livers) are our most unique items.” FARMLAND AUCTION 14258 191st Street | Noblesville | Indiana | 46060 Estate of Ruth Teeters 60.4 Acres of Farm Land House included!

Tammy Baitz Clerk of the Court for Hamilton County, Indiana TL7264 3/2, 3/9 2t hspaxlp ‘Fire in Old Post Office Building’ The Noblesville Fire Department responds to a fire on the second floor of the Old U.S. Post Office building. The building is located in the 900 block of Logan Street in downtown Noblesville. It was built in 1906 for the Post Office and it was at this site until 1931. As originally constructed, the building was smaller with three bays and three window clusters. When the federal government moved to a new Post Cook Office building on South Ninth Street, an addition was added to the west end. Weldy’s Drug Store had its back door located in this addition for many years. This photo was likely taken in the late 1930s or early 1940s. At that time, the Railway Express Agency was on the first floor in the eastern end of the building below the fire. It was a local courier and the telegraph office for Western Union. Photo by Mahlon Schaller Cranberry juice vs. urinary tract infection Urinary tract infections (UTIs) account for about eight million visits to physicians each year in the United States. These infections are much more common in adults, particularly in women. Children account for 1 to 2 percent of all UTIs, but their infections are often more serious. About 40 percent of women and 12 percent of men have a UTI at some time in their lives. The urinary system or “tract” is composed of the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. The kidneys filter waste products from the blood and produce urine that passes down the ureters to the bladder, where it is stored, before passing out the urethra. An infection can involve one or more parts of the urinary system. Bacteria that normally inhabit the bowel and live around the anus are the cause of most UTIs. The gut bacterium Escherichia coli (E. coli) is far and away the most common offender. Bacteria cause UTIs by making their way to the opening of the urethra where they can enter and start to grow anywhere in the urinary tract. The two most common ways bacteria enter the urinary tract in women is through improper hygiene (wiping from back to front after a bowel movement), John R. Roberts, M.D. Montgomery Medicine and sexual intercourse. Older men are also more prone to UTIs because their bladders may not empty completely due to obstruction from enlargement of the prostate gland. If the urethra is the only part of the urinary tract involved, the condition is called urethritis. This can be caused by colon bacteria, but may also be caused by sexually transmitted organisms. The infection can progress up the urinary tract causing infection of the bladder (cystitis) or one or both kidneys (pyelonephritis). Urinary tract infections can be simple or complicated. Most are simple, responding rapidly to antibiotics. Complicated UTIs are caused by bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics, or that have become too numerous to treat effectively. Children may develop complicated infections because of anatomic abnormalities Þ BOWL From Page A1 32 teams, 16 teams from each entity participating. The City team with the most pins was Noblesville Police Department, “The Oddballs.” The County team with the most pins was Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, “What Can Brown Do for You?” “Parrotheads in Paradise” was this year’s theme in a tradition of Jimmy Buffet themed benefits. “The idea is that it’s tropical, and it’s in the middle of winter,” Robinson said. Teams were encouraged to decorate. And they did. Inflatable palm trees, parrots, and tiki lights crowded the ball-return areas. Neon bowling balls glowed. Hawaiian shirts were abound. The lane decoration award, awarded to the team that made best use of the Jimmy Buffett theme, was presented to “Spare Me,” the Hamilton County Community Corrections team. The Piggy Bank Challenge award was presented to "Beck's Better Bowlers" from Beck’s Hybrids of Atlanta, a team that bowled on behalf of the City. The Cell Phone Challenge award, bestowed to the bowler who collected the most cell phones for Prevail to recycle, was awarded to Jason Sloderbeck from the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office. “The success of this event is because of the bowlers,” Robinson said. “It would not be possible without their dedication and passion for what Prevail does. We appreciate all that they do for us and how much fun we have with them at the event.” in their urinary tracts. As a general rule, the farther up the urinary tract an infection is found, the more severe it is. UTI symptoms vary based on the location of the infection. Urethritis usually results in burning with urination (dysuria). This is usually described as “external” burning (i.e. not up in the pelvis). Cystitis irritates the wall of the bladder and results in frequent urination and possibly pelvic pain and cramping. It may also cause blood in the urine (hematuria). Children may present with frequency, fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, foul-smelling urine or loss of bladder control. Infants can be difficult to diagnose and may present with non-specific symptoms such as irritability or fever. If the infection progresses up the ureters to the kidneys, it can cause back or flank pain as the kidney(s) become inflamed. This usually results in high fever, nausea and vomiting. Pyelonephritis, particularly in children, can lead to scarring of the kidneys and put the children at increased risk of developing high blood pressure later in life. Most UTIs can be treated effectively with oral antibiotics. Simple UTIs usually respond to a three to five day course of medication. Many bacteria are becom- ing resistant to antibiotics like sulfa and ciprofloxacin (often due to inappropriate overprescribing of antibiotics), so another antibiotic may be needed. For women who develop UTIs following sexual intercourse, it is helpful to urinate immediately after sex. Treatment with a single dose of a “post-coital” antibiotic is also a common way to combat this problem. People who have UTIs that are either recurrent or unresponsive to treatment should have their urine sent to the microbiology lab to be cultured to identify the offending organism, and to have a drug sensitivity panel performed to determine what antibiotics will kill the bacteria. Since UTIs are less common in younger men, it is usually recommended that they have cultures done routinely. Children under age 5 who develop UTIs should be evaluated carefully with possible imaging of their urinary systems to look for anatomic abnormalities. If they have had pyelonephritis, they should also have their blood pressure checked on a regular basis. And here’s the answer to the burning question: Is cranberry juice helpful in prevention and treatment of UTIs? Unfortunately, the evidence says “no.” OBITUARIES Bettie Jane Hammack July 14, 1923 – Feb. 27, 2015 Bettie Jane Hammack, 91, Noblesville, died on Friday, Feb. 27, 2015.

Numbers don’t define Millers Huskies surge Noblesville ready for rematch with Zionsville in sectional opener into postseason By Rich Torres rich@thetimes24-7.com Noblesville head coach Brian McCauley isn’t one to shy away from outside perspectives. On the contrary, he welcomes opinions, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll agree with them. So when casual observers suggest the Millers’ 5-9 finish after opening the year a scorching 8-1 was an inevitable correction, his initial response is normally honest and direct. Numbers don’t define a team. Nor does its record before March. “I don’t think we fell off at all. Were there games where we didn’t play as well as we could have? Yes. But we played a very demanding schedule, and that was obviously by design,” McCauley said. “When you want to win a sectional championship, you have to put yourself against the best teams in the state every night. That’s what our schedule does, and our guys were phenomenal throughout the season.” With four sectional titles and a semistate championship on his resume in nine season, it’s difficult to debunk McCauley’s sound logic. As the temperatures plummeted outside the Class 4A Millers’ schedule did spike in strength once the calendar flipped. Through the season’s first five weeks, Noblesville knocked off ranked opponents in 2A No.2 Indianapolis Howe, 3A No. 12 Hamilton Heights, 4A Chesterton, and 4A No. 11 Lawrence North. By Rich Torres rich@thetimes24-7.com ARCADIA – The plan was put into place for a reason. Looking back at last year’s disappointing sectional exit against eventual champion Muncie Central, Hamilton Heights head coach Chad Ballenger and his players knew what needed to be Huskie STATS done.

During the final 14 games, the schedule ballooned to include 4A No. 7 Bloomington South, 2A No. 1 Park Tudor, 4A Zionsville, 4A No. 17 Columbus North, 4A No. 2 Carmel, 4A No. 15 Brownsburg, and 4A No. 16 Pike.

Those offseason talks led to a championship-driven agenda, which entailed a tailor-made schedule designed to push the Huskies every night. Their treks would be lengthy. Their opponents would be some of the state’s best. The journey was meant to challenge and prepare the team for a return trip up the ladder to cut down the nets inside Muncie Fieldhouse in March. According to Ballenger’s assessment, that’s exactly what’s happened along with some unexpected gains. Entering the Class 3A Sectional 24 tournament with the bye, No. 12 Hamilton Heights is riding an eightgame winning streak, wrapped up its third consecutive Mid-Indiana Conference title last Friday and are right where they want to be. “We’re playing our best basketball. You always say you want to play your best down the stretch, and we are,” Ballenger said. “We’re pretty hot right now, but we’re still focused and I think our kids are hungry. That’s the big thing.” Last year, the Huskies sat in a similar situation. Hamilton Heights won 12 straight games to end the regular season and easily clinched an outright MIC title for a second consecutive year. This time around though, it was different. The team’s third outright conference championship went down to the regular-season’s final game at Peru, which the Huskies won 52-43.

INDEPENDENT LIVING •GARDEN GARDENHOMES HOMES ASSISTED LIVING • MEMORY CARE Pet Friendly Monday, March 2, 2015 B6 The Times, serving Noblesville and Hamilton County Þ MORROW From Page B3 Wednesday’s first game, and Noblesville (13-10) and Zionsville (18-6) vie in the second game. So, could we possibly be talking about a toss-up game in Friday’s second semifinal? Most likely. You see, the Royals lost to Zionsville by one point and beat Noblesville by two at the buzzer this season. Still, should Carmel — the four-time defending Metropolitan Interscholastic Conference champion — and North Central lock horns in the semifinals, the odds makers would likely favor that winner to cut down the nets. Carmel is ranked No. 2 in the state. North Central is No. 8. In Sagarin Ratings. However, NC is No. 4 and the Greyhounds No. 5. Carmel (20-2) lost to North Central (16-5) by seven points in early December, which could seem like light years away in Indiana high school basketball. Especially now that it’s tourney time, where the game plan is to survive and advance. Losers can only look ahead to 2016. The Panthers, however, dropped three of their final five games this season. With all the power in the upper bracket, we should be in for a doozy in what is arguably the toughest big-school sectional in Hoosierland. Can Fishers, the firsttime Hoosier Crossroads Conference champion, finally win its first boys’ sectional? First, the Tigers must get past North Central in Tuesday’s opener before they can really think about such a possibility. Odds seem to favor Carmel with the bye. Plus, factor in the tourney being contested in the Hounds’ Den, where coach Scott Heady’s squad won the sectional two years ago on its way to a second straight state championship. Also, Carmel has produced four straight 20-ormore-win seasons. They are among the state defensive leaders every year, and the Hounds, who sidelined North Central in each of the past two sectionals, have defeated the other five schools in the field this season. The Hounds won those five games by an average of 14.5 points. Noblesville gave them their closest game, losing by 10 points on Jan. 23 in The Mill. Carmel only allows 43.2 points per game. That puts them at No. 12 in the state overall and No. 4 among Class 4A teams. Add it all up, and these are things that certainly should be attention-getters. And the name across the front of the uniform hasn’t changed. So yeah, you gotta figure that Carmel will be a tough out. Zionsville, which last won the sectional in 1995, is No. 36 overall at 47.75 defensively in the state. No other team in Sectional 8 is among the top 50 teams defensively. The Eagles, who own the second-most victories in Sectional 8 this season with 18, have been eliminated by Carmel in each of the past three seasons. North Central, however, averages a sectional-best 70.29 points. That ranks the Panthers No. 20 overall and No. 7 in Class 4A. THE SKINNY SECTIONAL 8 >>>Carmel’s defense and that mental toughness we’ve seen work to perfection much of the past four seasons en route to four consecutive Metropolitan Interscholastic Conference titles is obviously still a major factor for the Greyhounds . . . Heady Ball has produced an 89-10 won-loss record over the past four seasons, and the program has dropped only six games the past three seasons. Heady is 99-23 in five seasons at CHS. . . . The Hounds are especially dangerous with Indiana Mr. Basketball candidate Ryan Cline running the show. The 57 percent shooter averages 20 points, along with 4.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists. The Purdue-commit also scored 21 of his team’s 39 in last Friday’s 2-point win over Brebeuf Jesuit. Outlook — Each player knows his role. That just adds to what makes these Hounds so good. >>>Fishers (12-10) went unbeaten in the HCC this season . . . Can the Tigers finally bring home another first — the sectional plaque? . . . Fishers lost to North Central by 12 points on Dec. 29 . . . The Tigers, who play an extremely difficult schedule, allow 60.8 points per game. That’s the second-highest total among the field . . . If senior Keegan Komlmeyer, averaging 16.3 points, stays hot, and a few breaks come their way, you never know…. maybe, watch out! Outlook — Can Fishers handle North Central’s athleticism, defensive pressure? >>>Hamilton Southeastern certainly has not had a year that coach Brian Satterfield likely expected . . . Good defense at times, but not much offense other than Zach Gunn (17.8 ppg) has been the story. The sensational 6-6 sophomore also leads the area in rebounds at 10.3. Senior Chris Ford follows with a 9.3 scoring average . . . HSE has lost several close games . . . The Royals also dropped their their final five regular-season games. Thus, they’ve won only four in their last 11 outings. Outlook — As bad as this might sound, I wouldn’t be in a hurry to write them off. The question is, will their best shot be good enough when it counts? >>>Noblesville, which started the season 8-1 and won the Noblesville Holiday Tournament championship, has come back down to earth a bit. They have absorbed some stinging losses. They lost twice in overtime and again on a last second shot, and they’ve dropped 9-of-their final 14 games since that fabulous start under first-year Millers coach Brian McCauley . . . The Millers, however, own signature wins over ranked teams Chesterton, Lawrence North and Crown Point, and a pretty good Pike squad . . . Jon Kiser and Jake Mills have been Noblesville’s steadiest players. They average 14-plus and 12 points, respectively. Kiser, a junior, is coming off a 23-point, 10-rebound effort against Lebanon . . . The Millers’ Achilles ’ heel is lack of size, but they are scrappy and quite competitive. Outlook — Can the Millers put together three games again like they did in winning their tournament back in December? >>>North Central, which was upset by Center Grove (73-70 in overtime in a game that could have earned the Panthers a share of the MIC championship last week, probably feels like they have something to prove. Like Carmel, coach Doug Mitchell’s squad has been ranked among the state’s top five 4A teams throughout the season . . . The Panthers are explosive and dangerous, and should be mighty ornery customers . . . NC has one of the top players in the field in 6-7 sophomore Kris Wilkes, who ranks among the top 20 nationally in the class of 2017. Outlook — Get past Fishers and then Carmel and the odds of winning the championship certainly improve. >>>Zionsville is long on size, with 3 players standing 6-7 or taller . . . The Eagles had won 10 in a row before losing the HCC showdown at Fishers HS last week . . . They have come momentum after winning 11 of their last 13 games . . . They own impressive wins over ranked teams Pike and Brownsburg, and they defeated 19game winner McCutcheon in the regular-season finale . . . 7-foot Derrik Smits (15.7 ppg & 5.6 rpg) must dominate . . . The Eagles have some good outside shooters, led by senior Jake Mann. Outlook — If the Eagles can get past Noblesville in their opener, they have a reasonable chance to reach the Sectional 8 final. >>>Westfield’s record is anything but impressive. Though losers of 10 of their last 12 games and five of their final six, the Shamrocks have suffered a two-overtime loss, another OT loss and they also won an extra-session game . . . They also landed at least 1 knockout punch where maybe it might not have been expected. They stunned New Castle 70-53 last week, snapping a four-game losing string . . . They lost to HSE by 29 points back in January and are 2-8 since . . . They allow 65-plus points per contest . . . Junior Charlie Weaver (18.9 ppg) and Ian Kristensen (10.3) have been the go-to players. Outlook — On paper, it would appear that the Shamrocks need more than just a lucky four-leaf clover to get through this field. THOUGHTS ON OTHER SECTIONALS I think there’s a real good chance that our county teams just might cut down nets in at least two other sectionals, possibly even three. Class 3A No. 11 Guerin Catholic, which has lost twice in overtime, is a good bet to successfully defend its title at Indianapolis Marshall; and 3A No. 12 Hamilton Heights has a bye and appears capable is capable of coming out at Muncie. University has a decent chance to advance at Class A Bethesda Christian, but odds appear stacked against Sheridan in the Class 2A field at Tipton. >>>Guerin Catholic (15-8), which meets Herron in the opener at Marshall, averages 61-plus points per game . . . The Golden Eagles are led by 6-6 senior Matt Holba (19.1 ppg, 9.8 rpg, 2.8 assists) and junior shooting guard Christian Munson (15.3 ppg). Both played major roles in the Golden Eagles’ drive to the Richmond Semistate a year ago . . . sophomore guard Matthew Godrey is a good one. He averages 8.4 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists . . . Brebeuf Jesuit drew the bye and figures to see Guerin on Friday . . . Coach Pete Smith’s Golden Eagles own victories over both Herron and Brebeuf, as well as Bishop Chatard. Outlook — Guerin has the potential to go a long way in the tournament. >>>Hamilton Heights (17-7) will ride an eightgame winning streak into the Muncie Fieldhouse . . . The Huskies, averaging 62.4 points, have much team balance and plenty of talent. Four players average in double figures in scoring. Junior Hunter Crist leads the way at 16.2, followed by senior Jadon White (12.5), and seniors Garrett Paull and Grant Weatherford, each averaging 12.0 . . . Coach Chad Ballenger’s Huskies came close to knocking off host Muncie Central in a game they thought they should have won in last year’s sectional final . . . The Huskies meet the Muncie Central (10-11)-Delta (7-15) winner on Friday . . .Yorktown (16-6) meets Blackford (0-22) in the other semifinal. Outlook — The motivation factor could play an especially key role for the Huskies. >>>Sheridan (6-16) figures to have its work cut out in the Class 2A sectional at Tipton . . .First-year coach Chris Schrank’s Blackhawks have a good opportunity to advance past Elwood, a team they defeated in a three-point regular-season contest . . . Sheridan ended a fourgame losing streak earlier last week. Still, the Hawks lost nine of their final 12 games . . . They average 52.9 points and allow 62.8 . . . The host Blue Devils defeated Sheridan 85-41 on Jan. 16. If successful in the second game on Wednesday, the Hawks figure to see Tipton in one of Friday’s semifinals . . . Brock Kitchel (14.0 ppg), Jacob Chesney (11.3) and Chris Roberts (10.3) lead the Hawks in scoring. Outlook — Tipton and Eastern would appear to be the best bets to cut down nets. >>>University (15-9) may not be the favorite in Class A at Bethesda Christian, though the Trailblazers should rate as a strong dark horse . . . They have a lot of offense and average more than 63 points per game. They are led by senior Tyler Diehl (20.7 ppg) and junior Connor Holly (19.5) . . . The Blazers suffered road losses to sectional opponents Tindley and Covenant Christian this season by 9 and 10 points, respectively . . . The Blazers, who open against Indiana Math & Science on Wednesday, have put together winning streaks of six and four games this season, and also won their final three starts. Outlook — This is a well-balanced field. Again….well….it’s Tourney Time. You never know whose court that winning basketball will bounce to. Mark Morrow is an award-winning sportswriter.

Same goes for a bad one. “I don’t know if there’s a good draw in our sectional, unless you get the bye,” said Rauch, who spent 11 seasons at Tri-West before coming over to Westfield in 2009. “Hamilton Southeastern is certainly going to present challenges for us like any other team, but you do have North Central, Fishers and Carmel on the other side of the bracket, so I think that’s a positive.” In other words, there are no easy roads at the Carmel Sectional, and the Class 4A Shamrocks’ path leads straight through the Hoosier Crossroads Conference. Matched up with HCC rival Hamilton Southeastern (7-16) in the opening round on Wednesday night at 6 p.m., the winner advances to see either Zionsville (18-6) or Noblesville (13-10) in the semifinals on Friday night. Regardless of their opponent, the Shamrocks (4-18) will look to avenge the past, which includes a frustrating last-place finish in the HCC. Westfield went 0-6 in the conference and fell to HSE two months ago on the road 72-43. But those numbers don’t tell the whole story, said Rauch. “I feel like our kids are playing pretty well. Right now, we’re just undersized and not as physical as those other teams in the sectional,” the coach noted. “But I feel basketball wise, we’re getting better, competing a lot better and it’s going to be a great sectional as always.” The key for Westfield, as for most, will be minimizing turnovers – and getting the ball to junior Charlie Warner. “Warner is really playing well for us,” Rauch said. Photo by Scott Mumphrey Westfield’s Charlie Warner is primed for a breakout game. “Charlie is pushing it all for us,” a 50-50-90 year, Rauch said.

But nothing would be farther from the truth. The Golden Eagles (158) aren’t relying on their past to dictate their future. Once the ball is tipped at Indianapolis Marshall on Tuesday night at 7 p.m. to open Sectional 26, Guerin Catholic will have one focus – beating Indianapolis Herron (13-9). “(State) has obviously been our goal from the beginning of the year, but we have to take it one game at a time,” Guerin Catholic senior Matt Holba said. “We can’t look ahead and think too much about trying to win the semistate or the state when we have a tough team in Herron up first. If we win that, then we get to play Brebeuf. Each game is important. “If you don’t win the first one, you can’t be in the last one.” With longtime rival Brebeuf Jesuit (12-10) drawing a first-round bye, the winner between Guerin Catholic and Herron will feed into their semifinal at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The championship game is Saturday at 7 p.m. with either Bishop Chatard (8-15) or Indianapolis Marshall (7-15) awaiting in the finals. Guerin Catholic enters the sectional with an edge, already defeating Herron 70-44, Bishop Chatard 73-50 and Brebeuf Jesuit 51-38. But past victories don’t mean much at this point of the season, according to Guerin Catholic head coach Pete Smith. “I think this team knows exactly what we have to Photo by Shawn Barney Christian Munson and Guerin are ready to soar. not do in the tournament,” programs and a tasking regime of top-flight 2A Smith said. “We have to and Class A opponents. not give up the baseline and not try to force Golden Eagle STATS passes.

However, Guerin Catholic’s 54.4 points on average surrendered will be key as Herron welcomes back senior Tyron Shumpert, a 6-1 guard. Shumpert brings an additional 11.7 points per game to the table, which bolsters Herron’s double-digit scorers to four. “Our defense is getting better and better,” Holba said. “We’re very versatile. We can play a lot of different defenses. We can man up on people or play zones in the 2-3 and 3-2. Defensively and offensively we are doing really well.

From the first of the year to the first weekend in February, the team played 12 games in a little over five weeks, but after losing to MIC foe Eastern (Greentown), 53-52, on Jan. 23, the team turned the corner for good. “Last year, we went on that stretch, but we didn’t have too many close games, and that hurt us at tourney time,” Ballenger said. “Even though we won eight in a row, we’ve had some battles. They are games we may be won by double figures, but they were games for a while where we competed hard to win. “I feel like we’re a lot more tested this year in games late. I think that will benefit us because there aren’t too many Þ HAWKS From Page B2 “I would love for us to have the experience of just winning a sectional game and knowing what it feels like and what you need to do to win a sectional game,” the coach underlined. “That would be a big stepping stone for those guys that are coming back next year.” A victory would also provide a much-deserved moral boost to those seniors competing in their final postseason, said Schrank. It’s a matter of keeping perspective and focus. While using the recent success of the girls’ basketball team’s first-ever sectional title run as inspiration, the boys’ squad isn’t quite chasing the ghosts of 1983. Instead, they’re taking the playoffs step by step, which means a return to 2011-12 is the best place to start. Not having won a sectional game in three years, the team previously achieved the feat six times from 2000-12. While it’s nothing new, it is the direction the Blackhawks have worked toward the past three-plus months. Winning three of its first four games to start the year, Sheridan endured some tough losses along the way leading up to the second season. Dropping six in a row at one point, but the Blackhawks were also edged out by nine points or less in five games this year. Of their wins, two were by three points or less, including their 65-62 regular-season victory against Elwood at home on Jan. 17. But that was in the past. “The record in the season doesn’t matter. Everyone is 0-0,” Schrank said. “We’re not going to take them lightly just because we beat them once. I think we’re confident, but we’re not overconfident. We know we have to put in the work.” Their approach has netted dividends beyond the winloss column. They have appeared via the team’s chemistry and offensive efficiency. As a collective group, the Blackhawks are shooting nearly 45 percent from the field and are averaging 52.6 points per game. Senior Brock Kitchel paces the offense with 14.0 points and 5.2 rebounds per game. Juniors Jacob Chesney and Chris Roberts aren’t far behind at 11.3 and 10.3 points on average, respectively. Chesney is the primary facilitator for the Blackhawks with 2.9 assists per game, and Roberts has utilized his 6-foot-3 frame to his advantage, hauling in 5.6 rebounds per contest. When he’s on, Kitchel can challenge opposing teams inside and out, connecting 38 percent of the time from 3-point range while junior Taylor Ly is 48 percent. “I feel like we’ve played well the last few weeks, and a part of that is because a lot of guys have really started to understand what they do well, and when they do those things that they really help the team,” Schrank said. “It’s given us a chance in a lot of games. We’re right there. The guys buying in is a big part of The Times, serving Noblesville and Hamilton County blowout games from here on out in the tourney. We call them one-possession games.” Each game remains single-serving for the Huskies, beginning on Friday at 7:30 p.m. in the semifinals at Muncie Fieldhouse against either Delta (8-15) or in a rematch with Muncie Central (10-11). If Hamilton Heights wins, it will advance into Saturday’s championship game. “We get to sit back now,” Ballenger remarked. “We feel pretty good about where we are scouting wise and really for us, it’s a great draw. We get a chance to rest up some more, get healthy and get some more preparation time.” Health has been an on-going issue for the Huskies this year, but the positives have surprisingly outweighed the negatives. Losing 6-foot-6 senior Garrett Paull in early January and 6-5 junior Sterling Weatherford since late December until recent weeks, the Huskies were forced to turn to their bench a majority of the that.” Unselfishness and court awareness has been equally as effective for the team, leading to both high percentage shots and the opportunities to strike back late. A prime example, coincidently, occurred against Elwood. “We were down by nine with four minutes to go in that game,”Schrank said. “They played us tough. We picked up the pace a little bit and just started attacking a little bit more. We were able to get to the rim and finish, and we had a couple of kick outs to a guy ready to shoot. It was a hardfought game to the end.” Wednesday night should be more of the same. “It makes it a little tougher because they’ve seen us before and kind of know what to expect,” Schrank said. “But I think when we played them in the middle of January, we were a different team than we are now. I’m sure they’re the same way…They’ll throw some different things at us, and we will, too. “If we take care of the ball and get a good shot every possession, we give ourselves a chance.” COME VISIT OUR NEW SHOWROOM AT 16222 ALLISONVILLE ROAD., 317-773-2929 (In the North Central Co-op Building) GOOD LUCK TEAMS!

We know we can put them in the game at any time. It’s made us that much deeper in games.” Finishing the season on the road against MIC rival Northwestern and at Twin Lakes, in addition Photo by Bob Cross / Fotocross Photography to playing in Richmond’s Grant Weatherford is running toward a championship. Þ MILLERS From Page B1 Of those seven, three were on the road and all but one (vs. Pike) were losses. Overall seven of the team’s final 14 games were away from The Mill. “We went into January and February, and we knew it was going to be really tough, playing some really good teams on the road,” McCauley said. “I thought we made good progress throughout the season. Now, we’re in position where we are battle tested, hopefully we draw from those experiences as we play a really good Zionsville team.” Falling to previously-ranked Zionsville 55-41 at home on Jan. 16, the Millers will get a chance at redemption when it matters most. Noblesville (13-10) faces the Eagles (18-6) Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. at Carmel in the opening round of Sectional 8. “Sectional 8 as everyone knows, it’s one of the best, if not the best in the state of Indiana,” said McCauley, who will participate in the sectional for the first time after seven years at Kokomo. “The past two or three state champions have come out of our sectional, and two of the last three Mr. Basketballs have come out of our sectional. That’s a great indication of how great of a sectional it is and how challenging it can be. “You can be one of the best teams in the state and not win it. If you do win it, then that means you’re one of the best teams in the state.” To get past Zionsville and set up another rematch with a Hoosier Crossroads Conference foe in either Westfield or Hamilton Southeastern in the semifinals, the Millers will need to bring their best. In their last meeting, the Eagles outrebounded the Millers 30-13, which fueled Zionsville’s second-chance opportunities. With 7-foot senior Derrik Smits and 6-8 sophomore Cassius Smits-Francisco working the glass, the Millers struggled to dictate the game’s tempo or find any offensive consistency. “Zionsville is an outstanding team. They’ve had a tremendous season. They have great size. They have skill level, so it will be very challenging,” McCauley said. “Obviously, Zionsville is going to try to make improvements and adjustments from that game, and so are we. (Rebounding) was an area we were hurt in and exposed, so that’s going to be a big emphasis.” Junior John Kiser will draw plenty of attention from the Eagles in addition The Times, serving Noblesville and Hamilton County to senior Jake Mills. Kiser is averaging more than 14 points and 6.4 rebounds per game. Mills is second on the team in scoring with 12.1 a night while senior Sean Wilson leads the Millers with four assists per contest. In the Millers’ regular-season finale at Lebanon, Kiser scored a team-high 23 points and pulled down 10 rebounds to lead Noblesville to a 47-41 win and the team’s second straight victory. “John is the ultimate team player and he knows that in order for our team to be at its best, he has to be at his best,” McCauley said. “Sean Wilson has does a great job of being a good floor general for us. He and Jake Mills have stepped up several times for us this season.” Through the season’s final five games, the Millers have mirrored their leadership, winning three of their last four game and losing two in overtime against 3A Mount Vernon (Fortville) and 4A Lawrence Central. In sectional, the team’s senior group of David Cory and Joey Brewer along with key bench players Brady Resch, Josh Gentry, and Joey Herron will be called upon to play crucial roles as they have all year. “Every championship B5 Bob Wettig Tournament and the Indiana Hall of Fame Challenge Cup in New Castle earlier this year, proved significant. However, none were as large as the final trip to Peru – for both the team’s confidence, morale and momentum. “Winning the MIC was big,” Ballenger said. “The fourth one in five years and third in row. Obviously, we have bigger goals and we want to win the sectional, but that is definitely a first step, and we got that done. “I think it’s all falling team has good leaders, and I think our seniors have been great leaders. They’ve had outstanding attitudes,” McCauley said. “Our guys did a great job of weathering the storm and staying focused. I think you need that as you go into a sectional tournament where it’s a one-and-done situation.” into place. We just have to keep it going … I L #+'( really like where we are at right now.” GO BLACKHAWKS 322 South Main Street Suite 200 P.O.
