Coach Shay ready to fill big shoes at Marion

Posted on 29 June 2007 by alexanderscot.

By Mike McGraw
Executive Director

MARION â??? Marion
High School is a unique
place athletically. Few schools in Indiana
can boast sustained statewide excellence in both football and basketball. Even
fewer can claim legendary coaches in both sports.

Marion, however, can stake a claim in
both of those areas. In basketball, such giants â??? excuse the pun â???
as Bill Green and Jack Colescott have prowled the sidelines. In football, the
great Mark Surface led the Giants for the past 23 years.

Surface
announced his retirement during the 2006 season, and Marion began the search for a new football
coach for the first time since before the current players were born. The man
they found is more than used to big challenges.

Zach Shay
is ready to guide Marionâ??s
fortunes this coming autumn.

Take a
moment to consider the pedigree, and you will know the Giantsâ?? program is in
good hands. Shay is a native of Galesburg, Ill., and a graduate of the University of Iowa,
where he was a defensive back for the Hawkeyes. (It seems Division I athletics
were in his blood â??? his older brothers both played college basketball,
one at Iowa
and the other at Clemson.)

The big
question, though, is how one comes out of Galesburg
as a football player and coach. After all, in many ways Galesburg
is Illinoisâ?? basketball version of Marion: a storied
roundball community.

Needless
to say, Shay grew up dealing with pressure. He had to live up to both his
family legacy and that of his hometown. When he graduated, he obviously saw no
reason to take the easy route.

After a
couple of brief coaching stops at smaller places, he signed on as an assistant
at the University
of Georgia. (No pressure
there, unless you donâ??t mind being burned in effigy after a 7-4 season!) As you
might imagine, Shay finds filling the role at Marion a welcome task.

â??I would
rather have it this way than be at the other extreme,� Shay said June 27 during
my visit with Marion Athletic Director Rocky Kent.

Marion fans are likely to see a couple of
changes from their charges. Though Shay is a pretty fundamental guy, the Iowa and Georgia
experiences left their mark on the new head man.

â??I think
there are two things you always have to do if you want to win football games,�
Shay said.� You better play defense, and be able to run the ball.�

Sounds
like coachspeak, but you couldnâ??t miss the twinkle in his eye when he added: â??I
am familiar with the spread offense â??? we can throw it around the lot if
we need to.�

Nonetheless,
the old days of Marion
scoring 38 and hoping that was enough are likely gone.

Shay has a
good foundation for that emphasis on defense. One of the returning starters for
the Giants is 6â??3â?, 235-pound middle linebacker Wade Brodt, who is garnering
several DI looks.

The offensive
side of the ball is where the rebuilding will have to occur, as Marion graduated 10
offensive starters. The one that remains, however, is a dandy. Tailback Sam
Trahan is among the best in Northern Indiana.

All in
all, Surfaceâ??s retirement will not be reason for the rest of the North Central
Conference to breathe a sigh of relief. Shay is poised to show folks that even
Giants can â??hunker down.â?

Editorial: Oden finally goes pro

Posted on 28 June 2007 by alexanderscot.


By Chris May
Boys Basketball Coordinator


Tonight, a new batch of millionaires will be made.



As the NBA draft is held in New Yorkâ??s Madison Square Garden, the state of Indiana will have a significant impact as three young men who played high school basketball in our state are expected to go in the first round: Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Jr., and Josh McRoberts.



As the so-called â??expertsâ? â??? and who knows how many bloggers, vloggers, and web geeks â??? try to pinpoint to whom and with which pick Conley and McRoberts will be selected, Oden is going where heâ??s already been for at least three years: the top of the basketball world.



Tonight, finally, we get to see the scenario that has been talked about for now three years unfold.



â??Greg Oden would have been the first overall pick in the NBA Draft after his junior year of high school,â? people said.



â??Greg Oden can jump straight from high school to the No. 1 pick in the NBA,â? still more said before the NBA instituted its rule to prevent such a move.



â??Greg is one-and-done at Ohio State and will be the No. 1 pick in the draft,â? people surmised.



All along, I guessed he would go to college for two years before leaving for the fast-paced, big money NBA lifestyle. Turns out I was wrong.



Iâ??ll go on record as saying no person â??? not Jordan, not Kobe, not LeBron, no one â??? deserves hundreds of millions of dollars for putting a round, orange ball through a hoop (and Greg wonâ??t get that much on his first contract). But if ever anyone did deserve that much, it would be Oden.



Like most prep superstars, Oden always managed to say the right things â??? he needed to get better at his game, he wanted to experience college life, and he had decided he wanted to major in accounting. (I have to applaud that. But seriously, Greg, it takes five years to get your accounting degree â??? there was no way you were going to turn down the NBA for five years!)



Even more impressive than the words, however, were his actions and behavior. Never once did we hear a story of Oden getting in trouble. Despite getting bear-hugged, mugged, and practically tackled by defenders, Oden rarely fought back maliciously and seemed to keep quiet when others would talk trash. Instead, he opted to destroy his opponents with points and rebounds, allowing the most painful of blocked shots to do his talking for him.



With statistics and credentials that will give the Portland Trailblazersâ?? media relations department plenty to work with, Oden is likely to be remembered for being the most dominant player that the state most thickly lathered in basketball tradition has ever seen.



Iâ??m sure that rather than remembering him as Mr. Basketball, a McDonaldâ??s All-American, or for any of his numerous individual achievements, Greg wants to be remembered as a winner. And the numbers certainly back him up on that.



Lawrence North lost just seven games during the high school careers of Oden and Conley.



In the duoâ??s eighth-grade year, LN had finished 11-11. The Wildcats were never defeated by more than 10 points in the subsequent four years.



Finishing the dynamic duoâ??s senior season with an undefeated state championship, Lawrence North became just the third Indiana high school team to win back-to-back-to-back state championships. And the â??Cats would have done it in the old non-class format, too).



Oden and Conley finished their high school careers as winners of 45 straight games, a string that tied Crispus Attucksâ?? state record, a stretch that reached 50 games before a post-Oden and Conley loss for LN. And as rookies at Ohio State on a freshmen-dominated team, the Buckeyes went 35-4 with a national championship game appearance.



I remember the first time I ever saw Oden play: Dec. 20, 2002. He was a young 7-footer playing against Indianapolis Arlington. I was then working at the ESPN Radio affiliate in Indianapolis covering mostly high school sports and wanted to get a look at this supposed phenom in the making. He certainly didnâ??t disappoint, owning the paint defensively yet appearing a bit timid on the offensive end.



In his sophomore season, I watched LN narrowly defeat Columbia City in the Hall of Fame Classic in New Castle, 56-55 in double-overtime, thinking that Oden & Co. might be beatable. While they did lose their next game and a second one before the state tournament, the Wildcats got it together and ran to a state championship, destroying that same Columbia City team, 50-29.



By halftime of that game, I was confident LN would win three state championships, a feat accomplished only by the legendary Franklin and Marion teams.



During his junior year, I watched Oden take on Tyler Hansborough and his Poplar Bluffs (Mo.) team in a nationally televised game at Hinkle Fieldhouse while sitting next to longtime shoe man Sonny Vaccaro. The man who hooked up Michael Jordan with Nike and signed Kobe Bryant and dozens of other high-profile players to shoe contracts, Vaccaro told me that we were watching one of the next greats.



The state championship game that year against Muncie Central was closer (63-52), but the big man managed to take care of things with 29 points, nine rebounds, and six blocks.



In the week following, Oden was the biggest draw at the McDonaldâ??s All-American Game in South Bend â??? even though he was a spectator. I watched as a line of mostly children snaked its way down an aisle as they waited for Odenâ??s autograph while he sat in the stands.



By their senior season, Oden, Conley, and the Wildcats were nationally followed. At times, it felt as if they were playing for a national championship, not a state title. With another ESPN game â??? this one a lopsided win against Eric Gordon and North Central (Indianapolis) â??? the Wildcats rolled to a perfect year, with their closest games being a pair of 10-point wins.



After being named Indianaâ??s Mr. Basketball, Oden told me in a radio interview that he felt Conley should have won the award. It was the same thing he had said time and time again, always deflecting praise away from himself and upon his teammate.



In the weeks following, Oden, hampered by a wrist injury, was invited to play in the first-ever Hoosiers Reunion game at the gym where the classic movie Hoosiers was filmed in Knightstown. Despite being unable to play, Oden was there all day long â??? including taking the microphone during introductions to thank fans for coming despite his injury.



Most other big-name players in that position would have skipped the event entirely.



You hear the phrase â??once-in-a-lifetime playerâ? and think of the all-time greats. But in an era of hype, sensationalism, and overkill by the media, know that Oden fits that description.



His basketball talent speaks volumes about what kind of professional player Oden will be. His modesty, humbleness, generosity with his time, and character all back it up. There couldnâ??t be a more deserving millionaire-in-the-making.



While I canâ??t lay claim to being a good friend of Odenâ??s, I know after interviewing him many times, talking to him after games, and watching him play probably around 30 games in high school that heâ??s going to thrive in the NBA.



Heâ??s got no choice. Heâ??s a winner.



I close â??? selfishly â??? with the words I spoke on HoosierAuthority.comâ??s webcast of the 2006 Class 4A state championship game, after Lawrence Northâ??s 24-point win over Muncie Central and Odenâ??s selection as the Arthur L. Trester Mental Attitude Award winner:



â??What we were able to witness here this evening, weâ??ve been stating it as history, but itâ??s been so much more than that. A young man by the name of Greg Oden finishes his high school career with 26 points and 11 rebounds. He, Mike Conley, and four other seniors for Lawrence North retire from their high school careers one of, if not the, greatest high school boys basketball team this state has ever seen. They join Franklin and Marion as the only programs to win three straight state championships; they also tie Crispus Attucks as winners of 45 consecutive high school basketball games, the Attucks teams of â??54-55 and 55-56.


 


â??Oden will put his name in the record books, joining the likes of a guy named Oscar, some guy named Larry from French Lick, Big George, Damon, Rick Mount â?¦ the list goes on and on. But there is no doubt about it, folks â??? it has been an honor and a privilege to have witnessed Mike Conley and the big guy, Greg Oden, over the last four years at Lawrence North High School. It is an absolute, extreme pleasure. I thank them and wish them nothing but the best, and also hope that the rest of the folks from this great Hoosier state will also wish them the best of luck at Ohio State University as well as wherever else their basketball and professional careers may take them.â?


 


The last six seasons of basketball in Central Indiana have been unforgettable and have provided some of us with memories weâ??ll never forget. Still not 25 years old myself, I know I have been around the most dominant basketball player I will ever witness in Indiana high school basketball.



Best of luck to Greg, Mike, McRoberts, and the rest of the Indiana players who will make their way to the pros in the next couple of years.

area is well-known across our state as well as the country as a hotbed for
volleyball, and weâ??re very excited to have that community host the state finals
this fall,� Ress said.

â??We are truly excited to partner with Ball
State University
to bring the IHSAA girls state volleyball finals to the Muncie community,� said Jim Mansfield,
executive director of the Muncie Visitors Bureau. â??The Ball State
campus is a wonderful venue to host an event of this magnitude, and I
anticipate every session will be a sellout, given the popularity and success
this area has seen with girls volleyball.

â??Iâ??m confident the Muncie
community will embrace this event to provide an outstanding and positive
experience for the teams and fans of girls high school volleyball.�

â??I am so pleased that the IHSAA will bring the girls volleyball finals
to the Ball State campus,� said Ball State
University President Jo Ann M. Gora.â??This
event, and its positive economic impact, demonstrates a growing collaboration
between the university and the Muncie
community at large.

â??We are pleased to play a role in bringing these outstanding competitors
to Muncie.�

Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, which had been the site of the
state championship matches since 2001, was not available to host this yearâ??s
event.
