Moeller on move High School Highlights

Crusaders rebound, 52-13 By Terry Boehmker Post staff reporter

Moeller High School football coach Steve Klonne said his team needed a "confidencebuilder" after its season-opening 42-20 loss to Warren Harding. The Crusaders accomplished that by crushing Covington Catholic, 52-13, in the Skyline Crosstown Showdown on Friday at the University of Cincinnati's Nippert Stadium. The Moeller offense rolled up 468 total yards and the defense forced four turnovers. The Crusaders also scored on a blocked punt. CovCath finished with 344 total yards. "It was tough losing the opener," Klonne said."We needed this win as a confidence-builder. We just have to keep going from here." Senior running back Trey Hughes was named Moeller's Most Valuable Player in the game. He picked up 130 yards on 15 carries and scored three of the Crusaders' five first-half touchdowns. Moeller quarterbacks Bernard Dwyer and Brian Reisert completed 9-of-16 passes for 226. yards. "They dominated us," CovCath coach Lynn Ray said."We weren't in the game from the very start. Basically, I blame myself for not getting the team prepared to stop them."

JIM OSBORN/rhe Post

Joshua Martin heads for Moeller High's second touchdown Friday after picking a blocked punt out of the air. Moeller had /-68 yards and forced four turnovers in a 52-13 victory over Covington Catholic.

Football runs for OSU's Murphy in

BY JOHN ERARDI 1'he Cincinnati Enquirer

■

Maybe Rob Murphy is a player the Bengals should draft. Maybe the franchise famous for its poor picks should pay less attention to 40-yard dash times and more attention to guys who can play. Maybe Murphy, a first-team Associated Press All-America out of Ohio State by way of Moeller High, could help the Bengals: He's tough, has a great work ethic, non-stop motor and killer mental approach. Murphy hasn't said whether he'll leave school early, but the path of OSU juniors to the NFL is well-worn. ■

IT'S THE ALL-AMERICAN WAY

In two days, No. 3 Ohio State will play Texas A&M in the Sugar Bowl In New Orleans. "Our goal is to win as impressively as we can and hope Florida State beats Tennessee (in the Fiesta Bowl) — but not by a lot — so we can give the sportswrit-

What one NFL-draft guru says about Rob Murphy:' lo- Jerry Jones, The Drugstore List "He's big and tough and agile and has excellent technique. He really finishes off his blocks. His quickness is OK, average. If he announces (he's coming out fcr the draft), he's a possible secondround pick, probably not a firstrounder. I don't think there are any first-round guards. His competition (at guard) is Doug Brzezinski (Boston College), Tony Coats (Washington), Anthony Cesario (Colorado State) and Cameron Spikes(Texas A& M)."

ers (AP poll) something to think about," Murphy said. , On.a team full of stars, Murphy was at times overlooked. "When they called me from Ohio State with the news that I'd been named to the AP first team," Murphy said, "they admitted it was a special because they hadn't done as much to hype. me as they had some of the other guys." So how did the 6-foot-5, 300pounder make AP's first team? He turned OSU's weekly appearances on national and region-

OSU lineman Rob Murphy (56) blocks for quarterback Joe Germaine during the Michigan State game. Murphy eamed first-team All-America honors from the Associa-ed Press. al TV into his personal stage. He never had a bad game, often had spectacular ones and performed at his best in the. games that got the most hype: West Virginia to open the season, Penn State and Michigan. Murphy credits.hig family for his accomplishments: his father, Bob, a former fullback at Miami (Fla.) who played briefly for the San Diego Chargers: his mother,

Sue, one of his first "coaches," and his brothers, Ryan, a University of Kentucky linebacker, and Mack, a Moeller freshman, who both help keep him "grounded." ""That guy right there," said Murphy, pointing across the room of his Montgomery home to Ryan, a 6-foot-2, 232-pound redshirt freshman at UK, "has it all (Please see MURPHY, Page D3)

Steve Rasso, St. Xavier's veteran coach, wasn't sure the Bombers would come back from the deficit. ; "We came out flat," Rasso said.

Two plays later, Sollmann took a lateral from Williams and then lofted a pass to Williams who race.into the end zone untouched. "Steve threw a perfect pass," Williams said.

Dan Marino -- Joe Montana --

- Joe Namath Jacob Smerdon, a member of the North Pocono High School football team has signed to play football at King's College. The 5-foot-11,210-pound Smerdon was a three-year letter-winner at North Pocono where he played linebacker and fullback for coach Tony Donato. As a senior, Smerdon posted 71 tackles with three quarterback sacks, three fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. As a fullback, he rushed for 140 yards on 15 carries, averaging 9.3 yards per-carry and scored three touchdowns. Smerdon, who served as a team captain, earned the Russ Smith Award at North Pocono and was a Bill 11 Conference all-star selection as a senior. He was also selected to play in the annual Lions Dream Game this summer. John Jenkins,former East Allegheny High School and Pitt star, is a free agent with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The free safety hopes to attain a spot on the Steeler roster. Although never an easy task for a free agent, Jenkins has a good chance because ofsome injuries to players in their secondary. John Manion is the new grid mentor at Lampeter-Strasburg High near Lancaster. The Pioneers are a Class AAA school in District 3. A middle school math teacher at Lampeter-Strasburg, Manion, 28, coached the middle school gridders the past four seasons..

ManheimCentral Coach Lauds PFN I was delighted when I received a phone call from Rich Vetock recently telling me about the development of a new publication to promote Pennsylvania high school football. As past president of the Pennsylvania Scholastic Football Coaches Association, I believe that our association needs to continually promote our sport, and our player. Despite the fact that the quality ofPennsylvania is considered one of the best in the nation, we must not take anything for granted. Also,Pennsylvania presently does not have a publication that has a system to collect and distribute data and information about high school football on a state-wide basis. This paper will set up a network to do this. This network is desperately needed, and I am hoping that the PSFCA will lend its support to this endeavor. I, myself, intend to provide as much help as I can to the publishers, and the readers across the state will definitely hear about ,he Lancaster-Lebanon League. The Pennsylvania Football News willbe great reading for the avid fans, players, parents,coaches, and college recruiters. It will be a great asset to me from a coaching standpoint, because it will give me information about what is going on around the state that the local papers can't give me. It will provide information on leagues standings, potential playoff teams, game results, outstanding player performances, big games that are coming up that we may need to scout, what players are hot from a recruiting standpoint, coaching openings and many other interesting facts. I am hoping that all Pennsylvania football lovers will support the Pennsylvania Football News and that it will be a smashing success! Mike Williams Head Football Coach Manheim Central High School

join Aviators'club Teams' Anderson,Turpin, Lakota West ready to challenge BY DAVE SCHUTTE ,Enquirer contributor The 1998.99 gymnastics season could prove to be exciting. Rather than just one team (Sycamore)dominating asin the past two. years, three or more schools are expected to battle for supremacy. . Anderson,Turpin and Lakota West have the talent to make a run. "This year in Cincinnati it's hard to tell," Turpin coach Gail Maundrell said."There's a lot of young kidsfrom club teams who could come in and do well." Four talented freshmen, all from club teams, join veteran Sara Yund at Anderson. The newcomers are Lindzi Howard, a transfer from Connecticut who spe' cislines in the floor exercise, Kelli Lagemann (all around), Kim Madden(allaround) and Karina Murray lbw)•

Although Sycamore returns only Katie Farr,along with experienced club gymnast Shuba Singh, the Aviators have performed well in early season meets and could be a factor later in the season. Centerville and Troy are the teams to beat in Southwestern Ohio with Dublin Coffman and Rocky River Magnificat the Northern powers. We saw Troy last week at an invitational and they were tough," Maundrell said."We haven'tseen Centerville butI understand they took first through fifth place in the bars at an invitational." Ten local schools are fielding teams this season, Walnut Hills is the newcomer. The other Cincinnati schools are Lakota East, Seven Hills, Cincinnati Country Day, Edgewood and Hamilton Badin. These teams will compete for in Februthe city championship ' o oweri bY +I,ha ary at Tu m f-11regional meet to determine the

Christy Hester, a four-time state qualifier for Lakota, takes over as coach at Lakota West Hester looksfor Nicole Lyme, a level 10 gymnast who is out until late January with a broken foot, to lead the way along with Andria Bauer and Katie Popoft. ' "I'm pretty excited and thrilled with the girls," said Hester, a senior atthe University of Cincinnati. `We have a lot of good individuals and they all supporteach other." Although Maundrell prefers the underdog role forTurpin,the Spartans can't be taken lightly. Sara Scheeren,a transfer from Boca Raton, Fla.,joins returning veterans Stephanie Autry (uneven bars), Liz Engelhardt (all-around), Christine Dietz (allaround) and Andrienne Prem (floor exercise).

so-Coach: Bernie Barre (19639) to-Will succeed if Richard Hall runs for more than 2,000 yards again this season, which, barring injury, would seem likely. Wyoming's system.has long been geared toward star running backs, but a strong senior finale would leave little doubt Hall was the greatest of them all. He'll get an additional boost with a big offensive line out in front of him, led by all-state candidate Matt Mefford at tackle and tight end Zach Novak. Wyoming ought to have the capability to throw this year, as well, with a capable arm in new quarterback Kyle Lewis and a talented wideout in Chris Carter. lo-Will struggle if depth becomes an issue, or a new, more aggressive approach on defense doesn't work out as planned. Most of Wyoming's top players will line up on both sides of the ball, including Hall at free safety and Mefford at defensive end. Linebacker Scott Cryder is another key to the defense.

0- Coach: Tom Crosby (15457-1) ►Will succeed it veteran coach Tom Crosby can get Mariemont back on track, as this is traditionally among the best small-school programs in the area. With only eight returning starters, the Warriors will have to do it with youth if it's to be done this year. Reassuring is the amount of experience taking care of the ball, as Jason Mondy returns for another year at quarterback and is joined in the backfield by running back Spencer Dunning, who gained more than 1,000 yards a year ago. Defensively, Mariemont should be led by defensive tackle Eric Shaner and linebacker Mike Dever. Kicker Conrad Hindert is another veteran returnee. p Will struggle if young players aren't ready for the roles thrust upon them. While Crosby says there is some talent among his underclassmen, this team only has 20 seniors and juniors to draw from, while there are 18 sophomores on the roster.

players to make a go of it in his first year and many of those key players are back this year. Offensively, Josh Cohen was a find last year as a converted fullback who was effective running in traffic. He'll be a focus again. Jason Case is back at quarterback and"may look to throw more in Madeira's run-and-shoot setup. Two key players out front on both offense and defense are Andy Lumpkin and Joe Novakov. The top defender returning is linebacker Nick Groll, last year's leading tackler. ®Will struggle if the injury bug hits in the wrong places. Madeira only has about 33 players in its program, so there is not a lot of depth. Another question might be whether other programs will be more wary of Madeira after the success demonstrated last year.

He's been playing football since he was5 years old,but didn't begin playing organized basketball until the seventh grade. Does he have a favorite between footoot ball and basketball? "I'm married to both," he said, beaming. Hall is rated the No.l college football prospect in Ohio for the 1998 season by John McCallister, editor ofthe McCallister ScoutingReport and the acknowledged expert on* Ohio high schoolfootoot ball talent. Hall rushed for more than 2,000 yardsin both his sophomore and junior seasons and was an Enquirer first-team all-star in basketball as a point guard.

Junior running back Jason Heard is one of the CHL's best,

rushing for 1,190 yards last season, while quarterback Jason Gardner threw for 12 touchdowns and more than 1,000 yards. Senior Kevin Tuepker is an anchor as a two-way starter in the backfields, while the same can be said for Brian Jemison on the offensive and defensive lines.

GR%!El~ CATH®LIG.LEAGUE SPOTLIGHT. ROGER BACON'S JERRETr DEAN

;.use i BY HAVE SCHLTM Enquirer contributor Before the 1997 season began, Greater Catholic League North coaches hadn't heard much about Jerrett Dean,Roger Bacon's speedy tailback. However, that won't be the case this year with most defenses now geared to slow down the Dean Express that ran rampant last year.

In the most Surprising performane by a football player last season, Dean rushed for a single-season school record 1,804 yards and scored 22 touchL downs, another Jerrett Dean school record. That one-season effort has given' Dean a chance to leave Roger Bacon with his name on all the career rushing and scoring records. "We've had so many good run-

ning backs over the years that Jerrett must have a good season to break the records," Roger Bacon coach Dan Starkey said. Walt ' Roeckers holds Roger Bacon's career TD (33) and rushing (3,100 yards) records. So Dean needs is a 1,300-yard, 11 TD season. Based on his work during the offseason,thatis within reach for the 6foot-1,195-pound senior. "Jerrett has gotten stronger during the summer," Starkey said."He now has 4.4 speed in the 40 and has the ability to turn it on whenever needed."

Dean was unstoppable as ajunior. Early in the season opposing defenses did not know what to expect from the Spartans' offense. After Dean rushed for 200-plus yards in three of the first four games,they began keying on him. Dean isn't the only reason the Spartans are picked to battle Purcell Marian for the GCL North champions. Dean is complimented by Brandon Barnes, a 5-11, 210-pound fullback who's a good blocker with 4.4 speed in the 40. "Brandon and Jerrett are best

friends," Starkey said."They campliment each other and both are j.. threats to score every time they ban; dle the ball." This one-two running attack should make it easier for senior quarterback Sam Merkle, who should be vastly improved after ° throwing for less than 700 yards in 1997. Roger Bacon is loaded on the offensive line with Dominic Pugliel< .li (6-3, 240) and Scott Hollmann (66 The Cincinnati Enquirer/ Emest Coleman 3, 240) while place kicker/punter Mason player tries to bring down Roger B.J.

offensive numbers BY COY HOFFMAN Enquirer contributor Itis unavoidable that the i.mmedi ate impression football fans get when they think ofLebanon's Kelton Lindsay is of him running the ball.

Labanon ®Coach: Dave Brausch (24-9) No. Will succeed if all the pieces fit together as well as they appear to on paper. Lebanon looks loaded, starting out with two of the premier athletes in the state in Kelton Lindsay (almost 2,200 rushing yards and 36 TDs in '97) and quarterback Brady Merchant(63 percent passing percentage in '97). They aren't the only impressive skilled athletes, either, with big, experienced receivers like Mike Williams, Jeremy Bolling and David Linville and two other speedy backs in Nick Singleton and Justin Runyon (who scored on a 70-yard run on the first play of the first scrimmage this preseason). 0-Will struggle if major problems develop in retooling the offensive line, where senior twoway starters Joe Michael and Dan Jackson will be heavily relied upon. Another piffall Could be if the injury bug would hit key personnel like Lindsay or Merchant, who are also two-way players. But many think this is the best Division II team in Ohio, and with as Many strengths as are evident, it's hard to argue with that assertion.

Mason 0-Coach: Tim Lichtenberg (125-105) IlWill succeed it they can make a smooth transition after losing most of the skilled players that anchored last year's playoff team. What is noticeable is an abundance of big guys who should make Mason a physical challenge, led by center Nate Moore,tackle Jason Beebe and defensive end Greg George. Tailback Jeremy Adkins, who ran for 1,700 yards a year ago, graduated, leaving Danny Little, a star on last year's reserve team, to try and replace him. Mason will also have a new,quarterback — actually, two of them, as Adam Livingston and Brandon Sammons have both proven to be good passers in the preseason. Lichtenberg would like to see a little more aggressiveness out of the defense, which will be led by George, linebacker Jeremy Wilson and all-FAVC defensive back Matt Davis. lo. Will struggle if the young skill players don't catch on right away, as Mason needs to be

His contributions get overshad owed by the enormity of his offen sive numbers, but he tied for the pass iil py art-time cepbons heady `ear h on "He likes defense a lot," Lebanon coach Dave Brausch said."In junior high, he didn't get to play defense, so he asked us very quickly if he could play it for us."

With his sprinter's speed and sinewy 185-0ound frame, Lindsay may be better suited in the long run to collegiate defensive back than running back. "I'm not going to college and say they have to put me anywhere," Lindsay said. "There's always someone better than you,and there will probably be running backs there better than me. That's something I realized through sports." The point was most directly made last spring in the state track meet. For all his vaunted football speed,

Lindsay finished 12th in the Division II 100-meter event, failing to even qualify to the championship heat. There are few,however,who have shown themselves to be faster than Lindsay with a football in his hands and, after getting beat in last year's state semifinals,he hopes to make a lasting impression with his final high school season. "I think this year, we've got not sx° just me,buta lot ofother people who — can contribute," he said.

McAllister says he's best in state BY DAB SCHU tE Enquirer contributor

Top rankings are being tossed around at Hamilton almost as many times as their quarterback is expected to throw the ball. xpectd John McAllister, editor of Prep Prospects of Ohio, says Big Blue quarterback Andy Mignery is the top-ranked player at his position in the state.

.:.,:'

Thatis one ofthe reasons Hamilton was chosen as the preseason No. 1ranked teanr in the Enquirer's Tristate Top 10. And local coaches agree, picking the Big Andy Mignery Blue No. 2 in the coaches' DivisionIII poll behind Moeller. With all that hype, there will be numerous scouts and lots of pressure at each Hamilton game this year.All that attention will be focused

►Will succeed tf QB Andy Mignery (1,156 yards passing) and RB Mike Myers (1,613 yards and 21 TDs) repeat or better their 1997 output. ®Will struggle if a defense, that includes six inexperienced starters, doesn'tcome through in key games against Colerain and Princeton late in the season. .

on the 6-foot-5, 228-pound Hamilton quarterback. "Andy attended five quarterback camps during the summer and is a lot more polished this season," Hamilton coach Ed Mignery said. "His arm is stronger and foot quickness much better." In his'first eight games in 1997, Mignery completed 54 of 100 passes for 936 yards. He sprained an ankle during the eighth game,forcing him to miss the two games before the playoffs. "Andy's very humble and makes me proud," Mignery said. "He's

always giving credit to someone else for the success." '.this year, Mignery has an even stronger supporting cast. He has two experienced receivers (Chris Wilhelm and Ryan Dixon) and two speedy runnings back, Milford transfer Ryan King (21.7 carries, 1,000 yards) and Mike Myers (190 carries, 1508 yards). "We'll probably throw more, but King and Myers must also run the ball a lot," Mignery said. "It's a good problem to have ifeveryone remains unselfish." While Hamilton has the work

40.1 horses in the backfield and at receiveceiv er, additional pressure falls on an offensive line that returns only one starter. "I'lre line lost two major college players (Deron Bawling and Brandon Bridges) who are at Kent State," Mignery said."We have the people at the skilled positions but the line must come through." With this firepower, it's easy to understand why the Big Blue have been picked to win the Greater Miami Conference for a second consecutive season.

Oak Nl i s Coach: Steve Sheehan (7-3) 30141 succeed if the defense, which returns eight starters, can be one of the toughest in the city. Special teams could win one or two games this season, as the kicker and punter are both highly experienced. One or two extra wins will obviously help, especially since Oak Hills plays LaSalle, Elder and Colerain in non-league games. ® Will struggle it the offensive line can't hide its inexperience behind an impressive-average weight of 245 pounds. Like Anderson, numbers also are impressive, as 85 players fill the roster, but that could be moot when a green offensive line will block for a thin corps of running backs.

Coach: Jay Miller (0-0) Will succeed if the Barons can ride the strength and talent of their senior players. Sixteen upperclassmen will lead Amelia, including eight returning starters on defense. The Barons also have good depth at the offensive skill positions. WIII struggle if the thin crop of underclassmen can't play like those more seasoned players. Only one returning starter is a non-senior, so some positions will experience some on-the-job training. These players will need to learn quickly if the Barons are hoping for a fifth consecutive winning season.

Hughes 0- Coach: Al West(22-48) ® Will succeed if Thomas Roberts has a huge game every week. The Big Red returns starting quarterback Roberts, an Enquirer all-star selection last year, and he can make big plays both passing and rushing. His game-breaking ability will need to shine through quite often for Hughes to win seven or eight games, which will be difficult. o- Will struggle it the defensive line cannot control the line of scrimmage. If opponents find any success rushing through Hughes'first line of defense, they could keep on running to the end zone, because the Big Red has just four linebackers on the roster. Only one is a senior with experience.

Twenty-six player3 on the rostel, however, will make that feat a tough one. > Will struggle if players leave the team before the season en 1s. At the start of east season, W fadward had to forfeit two ga Tres because they simply were sh alt on playe S. Coach Jackson ne,ds a win or two early in the se ison to keep his players interes ed in sticking it out. Name A. Alexander J. Spikes R. Allen S. Bland A. Bryant S. Eason R. Evans L.

WesteCj BL' ';r" Do- Coach: Tim Bogan (2-8) Is Will succeed if the offense can improve on last season, when the Broncos managed 215 yards and 12 points per game. The offensive line features four seniors, including two who missed last season due to ACL injuries. James Rebensdorf is expected to carry much of the offense's burden at fullback. How well he handles the role is key. ►Will struggle if the team gets, off to a bad start. Having won just five games in four years, the last thing the Broncos need is another losing record out of the gates.

►Coach: Ken Osborne (177122) ®Will succeed if a running game fails to develop to keep opposing defenses honest. Rob Sipple is a proven QB and has good targets in Chris Poole and David Ross. However,the loss of 1,000yard rusher John Malott leaves a glaring hole at tailback and, without a viable rushing attack, the passing game may suffer as defenses adjust. N> Will struggle if the team continues to be hit by Injuries. Starting defensive end Jim Comes tore his MCL in preseason practice and is out for the season. With only 38 players on the team, depth is a major concern,

(237 yards in '97) is the top returning rusher. The offensive line is big and experienced, but its skills will go for naught if the Rockets' wing-T isn't operated efficiently.
