(Stats complete through game(s) of Friday, Jan. 16)
- Aided vastly by the Bruins' 10 games played, Seth Kauffman has more rebounds and steals than any player in Elkhart County. The other county teams with a 10-game completed slate are Goshen (7-3) and Elkhart Central (3-7). NorthWood's Skyler Titus is second in rebounds with 77, followed by Josh Riikonen of the Blue Blazers with 76. The steals leaders are as follows:
- Kauffman (Bethany) 24/2.4 per game
- Ethan Hussey (Goshen) 21/2.1
- Jordan Weaver (Bethany) 20/2.0
- Luke Slagel (Bethany) 19/1.9
- Sean Cooper (Elk. Memorial) 18/2.6
- Kauffman also leads the county with 74 two-point field goals, shooting at a clip of 66.1% from inside the 19'9" semicircle. Hussey is second at 69.
- Weaver, with 31 assists, trails only Goshen's Ethan Hussey (34) in that category.
- County free throw percentage leaders:
- Ethan Hussey (Goshen) 86.4%
- Elliot Smith (Northridge) 86.0%
- Koby Eldridge (Concord) 84.2%
- Eldridge won the free-throw shootout at the Elkhart Sports Center Hoop Challenge in 2005, and advanced to the three-point finals a year later.
- Micah Horner (NorthWood) 84.0%
- Mark DeLeeuw (Bethany) 82.8%
- Tyler Forgey (Jimtown) 82.8%
- The girls basketball sectional draw will be held Thursday, January 29 at 7:00 p.m. EST. The sectional will be hosted by favorite Canterbury; Bethany will be favored against ECA (-9.5), Hamilton (-16.5), and Keystone (-28.5). Elkhart Christian travels to the Menno Lands for a 7:30 varsity-only tipoff on Monday, Feb. 2.
- The boys sectional draw is Thursday, February 19 at 6:00 p.m. EST. The Bruins will travel to favored Blackhawk for the sectional; Hamilton, Blackhawk, and Howe Military remain on our regular season schedule.
- As ECA and Bethany fared oppositely in the first round of the holiday tournament, the two parochial IHSAA schools of Elkhart County will not meet in the regular season. The last time this happened was 1984-85. That year, Elkhart Baptist was not in the IHSAA, the Bruins were led in scoring by Royce Schrag and Myron Bontreger, and Walter Mondale carried a grand total of one state and the District of Columbia in getting steamrolled by incumbent president Ronald Reagan.
- On Thursday, Abe Thorne played the first minute-plus of the Bethany/Jimtown 7th-grade game wearing a wristwatch. He was reminded to take it off by an official who I know I've seen, but whose name I can't remember. A brief history of illegal apparel and Bruin basketball:
- Nov. 2004: In the first Bethany basketball game after Lance Armstrong's Tour de France win sparks a flurry of silicone bracelets, no fewer than three Bruins, including Hamilton Thorne, take the floor with them. Within the first two minutes, one official decides that they constitute jewelry. (The other official that day was Kurt Bullard (see below), who was also wearing one. He is not the official who makes the decision.) This was also Matt Miller's first game as a Bethany basketball coach.
- Dec. 8/9, 2005: During a Bethany-Stanley Clark eighth-grade game, an unidentified Stanley Clark player checks in wearing four or five bracelets. This fact is discovered by official Michael Robinson immediately after beckoning the substitute.
- Dec. 13, 2005: Bruin Dylan Downing checks into an eighth-grade game wearing earrings. He is sent back to the bench by an official (not Robinson or Bullard) and replaced with a different substitute.
- Feb. 2006: During play in a sixth-grade girls game, Sarah Brew loses her hair band. After picking it up during a stoppage in play, she drapes it around her neck. The illegality of this is pointed out, and Brew tosses it back toward the bench. (Official may have been Robinson again; he was here a lot that year.)
- Dec. 14, 2007: In the ECA-Bethany boys JV game, two Eagles start the game on the bench, wearing white undershirts in tandem with the road purple jerseys. They are sent to the locker room to change, passing directly across a bleacher railing from yours truly on the way out of the Menno Lands.
- Jan. 15, 2009: Abe Thorne plays the first minute-plus of a seventh-grade game at Jimtown wearing a wristwatch. Further details can be found in the match report from Thursday.
- Jan.-Mar. 2009: MS girls basketball team sets itself up for many more of these, with team photos showing nine off-color undershirts and five hair ties on wrists out of 25 people.
- Nov. 2004: In the first Bethany basketball game after Lance Armstrong's Tour de France win sparks a flurry of silicone bracelets, no fewer than three Bruins, including Hamilton Thorne, take the floor with them. Within the first two minutes, one official decides that they constitute jewelry. (The other official that day was Kurt Bullard (see below), who was also wearing one. He is not the official who makes the decision.) This was also Matt Miller's first game as a Bethany basketball coach.
- For the second time in the last five years, Kurt Bullard is not coaching the MS girls basketball "A" team. This year's team is being coached by Sarah Moyer while Bullard handles the "B" and "C" teams, the reverse of last year's staff; in 2006, Mike Goertzen and Teri Marlow, respectively, filled those positions. The 2007 teams were coached by Bullard and Marlow, while Bryan Kehr coached the lower-level teams in 2005.

BAUGO TWP., Ind. — Jimtown 47, Bethany 29.
"B"
Bruins can't make shots fall, fall in Baugo
Jimtown outplays Bethany en route to victory
Visitors unwittingly endorse chronometer industry
"All who draw the sword will die by the sword." Matthew 26:52 (NIV)
BAUGO TWP. — Bethany has drawn the sword on numerous occasions this year in the form of a three-point shot. Entering Thursday's action against the Jimmies, the Bruins had drained at least 27 long-range baskets while missing countless non-recorded others. In the absence of starting guard Tanner Fervida, post play would prove to be a crucial element.
Defense rules first sessions
The game started inauspiciously for both offenses, as a driving layup from Keion Johnson accounted for the entirety of the 2-0 first quarter score. Johnson and Tristan Wickham would combine for ten of Jimtown's twelve second-quarter points, while a lack of ball control on the boards crippled the visitors' offensive effort. As the teams left the floor for the halftime intermission, the Bruins trailed by six.
Jimtown control slips
The third quarter would yield a bit of a Bruin comeback, including a rattling 22-foot field goal by Sol Brenneman, as the defense stifled Jimtown's attack enough to cut the margin to one. On March 27, 2004, Jimtown coach Kyle Johnson led his team to the 2A state championship, capturing the Trester Award for mental attitude as Brownstown Central outscored Jimtown 18-8 off a 20-10 turnover advantage. The statistic was no different in this quarter, as Bethany scored its six points from three fast breaks after Jimtown lost the ball.
Case closes in fourth
Jimmie point guard Case Hoeflinger had been quiet for 18 minutes, contributing only two free throws to the hosts' cause. His Bruin counterpart, Ethan Folker, had performed similarly, frequently failing to play defense after a bad pass or an overly complex missed layup. The difference in these two characters would contribute enormously to the final difference. Hoeflinger capitalized on the mistakes of an undermanned, undersized Bethany defense, going a perfect 4-for-4 when sent to the line in the final stanza. Folker, on a completely opposite hand, failed to convert in the entire second half, including missing both free throws in a 22-19 game with 48.7 seconds to play.
Mistakes cost Bruins down stretch
Despite these flaws, the Bruin defense remained passably strong, excepting several mental mistakes which put Jimtown on the charity stripe. Offensive ineptitude reigned on the other end: in fact, the Bruins, forced to resort to forcing the ball inside, turned the ball over multiple times in the final two minutes, while their only fourth-quarter points were scored by reserve guard Joseph Mumaw with approximately 2:45 to play. Ultimately, the visitors' lack of ability to play in the paint would cost them a five-point decision at the hands of a more elite squad.
Hey, Dave: Watch this!
In road games this year, Abe Thorne's uniform has not been one to disrupt: blue number 40 jersey trimmed in white, sleeves of a powder blue T-shirt protruding through the armholes, royal blue shorts with a Bruin paw on the left thigh, low socks, tied shoes. In a plague spreading throughout the gymnasium from the time the Bruins took the floor to warm up, before 4:15, to after the 4:30 tip-off, that was not the case on Thursday. Thorne picked up a start in the absence of Tanner Fervida, and the game began without incident. Within seconds of the opening tip, however, the circumstances would change: this reporter noticed a foreign object taking up residence on his left wrist. Soon determined to be wearing (illegally) a wristwatch, becoming the first illegally attired male Bruin since a group that included his brother Hamilton, playing against Jimtown, four-plus years earlier. This problem would continue for approximately five percent of the game, until coach Norm Cender called Abe to the bench, removing the offending timepiece after 71 seconds of free Armitron publicity.

Bleeding Bruin Blue Athlete of the Week, December 7-13
Added:
12/14/2008 05:50:00 PM
The Bleeding Bruin Blue Athlete of the Week for December 7-13 is Trent Yoder. If you must know exactly what Trent has done to deserve this honor, type his name into the search box at the top of the page (or click here). If you don't understand the award, feel free to comment (link at the bottom of the post) or e-mail me.
Eligibility: Literally all Bruins in a position to win any high school athletic letter (varsity, JV or freshman) during the current season, and their middle school counterparts, are eligible. The only exceptions are the winners from the last three weeks: Yoder, Jenae Rupp, and Seth Kauffman. As three weeks have elapsed since her win on Nov. 23, Marla zumFelde becomes eligible again next week.
Next Week: Next week's nominations will be due Sunday, December 21, at 3:15 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The list of times by week is linked to on the right side. As I said several months ago, the first person to correctly name how I determined the times will get mentioned in a future post. To nominate someone, send an e-mail to senorloco1908@gmail.com and put "AOW nomination: [name of athlete ('athlete' is singular, not plural)]" in the subject line. (You can even include the quotes if you want.) The body of the message can be used for whatever you want. The three simple things that will disqualify a message are:

- Anyone nominating multiple people will have only the last nomination counted.
- Señor Loco reserves the right to ignore e-mails with unnecessarily vulgar sections.
