INDIANAPOLIS
â??? Hauser got a
triple-double from big man Bobby Jolliff and 24 points from guard Gabe Miller
as the third-ranked Jets held No. 4 Tri-Central to 16 percent shooting in a
rugged 64-36 rout in the Class A championship March 25 at Conseco Fieldhouse.

Grayson Flittner, the state’s
leading scorer, fouled out and was limited to 6-for-28 shooting en route to a
team-high 23 points for the Trojans, who shot a horrid 3 for 37 in the second
half.

Hauserâ??s Perkins wins
Trester Award
Hauser senior forward Jordan Perkins is the 2005-06 Boys Basketball
Class A recipient of the Arthur L. Trester Mental Attitude Award as selected by
members of the IHSAA Board of Directors.

Perkins is a two-year letterman in basketball, helping coach Bob Nobbeâ??s
Jets to a 25-2 record and their first-ever state championship in any sport. He
is a three-sport performer, playing baseball and tennis all four years. He
helped the Hauser baseball team to a Class A state runner-up finish last
spring.

Perkins ranks third in his senior class with a 3.815 cumulative grade
point average. The National Honor Society president is a Boysâ?? State nominee,
DAR award winner, and an eXceL award winner (formerly Project XL). He has
served as a featured speaker at the Hauser Veteranâ??s Day program, he volunteers
at the annual Hope Heritage Days celebration, and he also helps distribute
coloring books and other resources to local elementary schools.

â??Jordanâ??s
character is the underlying element that has and will continue to distinguish
him from his peers,â? said Hauser Principal Tim Stephens. â??He is one of those
students who always has a smile, brings humor to any situation, and does the
right thing.�

The recipient, nominated by their principals and coaches, must excel in
mental attitude, scholarship, leadership, and athletic ability in boys
basketball. The
award is named in honor of Trester, the IHSAAâ??s first commissioner who served
from 1929-44. Indiana
Farm Bureau Insurance, IHSAAâ??s corporate partner, presented a $1,000 check to Hauser High
School in the name of Jordan Perkins.

Perkins, the son of Joel and Rita Perkins, will be attending Eastern Kentucky University
this fall.
