2/2/2012

Jon Cummins felt 11 wins was a good goal for his Cardinal Huskies boys basketball team in his first season. "I felt if we could finish around .500 or a little higher that would be a good season," Cummins said on Tuesday. "We're on that pace."

In the week to come, the Huskies take on Kirtland, Berkshire and Richmond Hts., three difficult games. But ...

Connick is Two Wins Away From All-time Mark

2/2/2012
Coach Nick Salatino shows freshman Mike Connick some techniques after Connick beat his Kent-Roosevelt opponent 8-7 in the third period. Connick is one of Chardon's bright young wrestlers at 106 pounds.

In a sport where the physically strong and flexible are rewarded, reaching 100 wins in a varsity career is as much about keeping weight and keeping healthy as it is about skill on the mat.

"Youth is just an excuse for not being where we need to be. There are ...

Chardon's Crazy Home Win Sparked by Students

1/26/2012
Chardon's Jake Happ had eight points. Happ is the team's starting post player along with Sam Wilkes.

Anyone who watched Ben Furlich develop as a varsity basketball player knew he wouldn't have problems scoring the basketball. He's athletic with a good wingspan and can slash to the hoop.

And he likes to shoot.

When the Hilltoppers set up a play trailing by one point at the end of last weekend's home game against Riverside, all eyes were on senior ...
