3 Dunk Night
Your Hawkblogger is going out on a limb to say that in the history of Maumee Valley Basketball the Hawks have been only on the receiving end of the slam dunk.
In that department, one could wonder if the Blue and White weren't cursed in that department...until last night that is.
So here for your viewing enjoyment are three dunks in one game, courtesy of MVCDS big man Jared Sturt.

CCHS Summer League summary 6.14.11 – Part 1
Maumee Valley split a pair of games last night at the Central Catholic Sullivan Center.
Ten players were hand for MV – Rob Ariss in his varsity debut, Caleb Willhight, Julius Turner, Thad Woodard, Dave Brown, Dixon Stoddard (the birthday boy), Jared Sturt, Jonathan Krueger, Nick Frasco and Rick Deichert.
Game 1: Toledo Woodward 58 – MV 42
Toledo Woodward is a Division II school playing in the Toledo City League. The Polar Bears struggled to a 2-16 record last year, but return several letterwinners including a number of quick outside-shooting guards. Maumee Valley was scheduled to play Woodward last year but the game was cancelled due to snow.
As to the game - it had to happen inevitably - a fired-up Woodward squad lit up the gym from the outside and the Hawks couldn’t get a thing to drop, especially from long-range. That recipe led to MVCDS’ first summer league defeat of the year at the hands of the Polar Bears.
The shooting doldrums hit the Hawks twice in the game. They fell behind early in the first half, but came back from a 25-15 deficit with a 10-2 run to close the gap to 27-25 at the half. It was all for naught however, as Woodward pressed their way to a 14 point advantage in the first ten minutes of the second frame and never looked back.
Scoring for the Hawks – Jared 13, Dave 11, Jon 6, Julius 5, Nick 3, Caleb and Thad 2 each.
Three highlights from this game – and that’s about it.
1. Jared cleans up on the fast break
2. Thad and Jon show how to beat the zone.
3. Dave follows his Dad’s instructions (listen carefully at the start).

Maumee Valley defeats Maumee and Wauseon HS - 6.13.11 Premier league play
The Maumee Valley Hawks won twice yesterday in the Premier (fka Mix) league despite as a result of outstanding coaching. MV is now 7-0 in summer league play.
On hand for MV today – Thad Woodard, Jared Sturt, Julius Turner, Dixon Stoddard, Jonathan Krueger, Dave Brown, Nick Frasco and Rick Deichert.
Game one: MV 51 – Maumee HS 46 (OT)
Maumee is a D-II school and charter member (1956) of the Northern Lakes League. The Panthers went 12-8 last year, but graduated eight seniors. Still, as a Division II school, they sported a 15 man bench for the Monday June 13 game.
The game was a back and forth affair. Maumee took the early lead, but the Hawks came back and were ahead throughout most of the second half until the Panthers tied the game with 2.5 seconds left. The players themselves drew up a last second play, but Dave Brown exercised his prerogative as a superstar player (well, as the guy who got the ball on the in-bounds pass anyway) and threw up a three quarter shot which missed. At the end of regulation the score was 46-all.
In the three minute overtime, MV’s experience allowed them to take control of the game. Jared won the tip and made a two pointer inside for the lead. Following a Panther miss, the Hawks slowed the game down. With three strong ball handlers, it was just a matter of time before Maumee was forced to foul. Dave and Julius made three free throws in OT to ice it. The Hawks were victorious at the end, surprising the Panther faithful which did not expect a D-IV team to be competitive.
Scoring – Julius 15 (plus a bonus punch to the face during the game), Jared 12, Dave 11, Rick and Nick 5 each, Jon and Dixon 2 each.
Game two: MV 50 – Wauseon 36
Wauseon is also D-II school and a charter member (1926!) of the Northwest Ohio Athletic League. The Indians were 9-11 last year and graduated five seniors from that team. Waueson features a 6’6’ post player whose name I don’t have and if someone wants to provide it in the (moderated, so don’t goof around) comments, I’d appreciate it.
The Hawks played even with the Tribe in the first quarter, and then took the wraps off their pressure defense. MV’s guard pressure led to several steals by Hawk back line stalwarts Dixon, Jon, Jared, Thad and Julius with resultant fast break opportunities. The Hawks’ heat gave Wauseon fits and MV gained a 10 point lead in the second, which they slowly extended throughout the rest of the game for a 14 point win at the end.
Scoring was very balanced: Rick and Nick (clearly his best overall Maumee Valley performance without a violin in his hand) 9 each, Jared, Dave and Julius 8 each, Dixon 5 and Jon 3.
Your Hawkblogger now provides proof of his ability to multitask with these second half videos.
1. One of the perquisites of coaching is the ability to whine freely at the refs.
2. The Hawk defense forces a five second call.
3. In actual basketball action, here’s Julius with a corner jump shot.
Next up:
The Hawks’ OHSAA-sanctioned summer practice session begins today at the Varsity Gym. Your crack Hawkblog staff has learned that the primary focus early on will be to undo the damage inflicted on the team from the coaching they received Monday.
Part of this intense period is a three-day stretch of summer league play at Central Catholic from Tuesday through Thursday. MV plays the City League’s Woodward and Waite tonight at CCHS’ Sullivan Center. Admission is the best value in Toledo; $1 buys you top level basketball in air conditioned comfort.
So in the immortal words of former MVCDS Advancement Director Mary Sabin, stay tuned.

MVCDS 49 - Toledo St. Francis 40 - second half highights
MV was down 27-17 in the first, but clamped down on defense in the second half. Several fast break opportunities benefited the Blue and White and they ran to victory.
1. Rick Deichert with a behind-the-back pass to Dixon, who was fouled shooting.
2. Dave Brown takes it himself on the break for an And-1.
3. Dixon Stoddard drives in and finds Jared Sturt for the finish.
4. Rick shows the benefits of the weight room, taking a bump but finishing for two.
5. Dixon showing some touch from the foul line.
6. Julius Turner with the separation 3-ball - this pretty much iced it for the Hawks.
7. Jon for two with a push from behind.
8. Dribbling out the clock - no trapping here.
9. Final seconds.

CCHS 6.9.11 - MVCDS 49 - Toledo St. Francis Knights 40
Maumee Valley overcame a 10 point first half deficit and rallied in the second behind strong defense to defeat the D-II Toledo St. Francis Knights 49-40. With the win, the Blue and White remain undefeated in the Toledo Central Catholic League with a 5-0 record.
St. Francis is rebuilding after a difficult 5-15 record last year, but any win over a current or former City League team is significant.
Scoring for the Hawks: Jared Sturt 15, Julius Turner 11, Rick Deichert 7, Jonathan Krueger 6, Dixon Stoddard and Dave Brown 5 each. Also playing for MV were Thad Woodard, Nick Frasco and Caleb Willhight.
Woulda, shoulda, coulda department - most all the summer league highlights have been from the second half. Unfortunately, I missed an impressive drive to the basket and finishing dunk by Jared early on. Needless to say, I’ll be paying more attention in the first half.
First half highlights:
1. Jon posts up and scores on the reverse layup.
2. Dixon powers in off the fast break.
3. Dave drives to the basket and finds Jon for a long two
4. Jared doing the Dirk thing with a fade away jumper near the foul line.
CCHS 6.9.11 - Maumee Valley 71 - Monroe St. Mary's CC 42 summary
Monroe Michigan St. Mary’s Central Catholic finished 22-4 last year and advanced to the Michigan Class C (equivalent to Ohio Division III) state quarterfinals. They graduated a senior all-state guard, but several other members returned for summer play.
MV built a commanding 43-16 lead against SMCC at the half. Your Hawkblogger arrived too late to the game to record the individual scoring, but watched the Hawks move the ball around the old Central Catholic gym with ease and regularly hold SMCC to one shot per possession.
Coach Carter Bayer ’10 moved to 4-0 in league play with the win.
Highlights
1. Dave and Rick execute the give-and-go.
2. Jonathan spins in, then gets his own rebound.
3. Caleb and Nick run their own give-and-go to perfection.
4. Nick, with a great feel for offensive rebounding, tips one in.
5. Jonathan for three on the Nick Frasco kick-out
6. Rick for three from the corner.
The past week in MV summer ball
Two more wins for the Hawks in the Central Catholic summer league this past week, and MV now stands at 5-0 in their section.
Maumee Valley defeated Monroe St. Mary's Central Catholic 71-42, then turned around in the nightcap and came back from 10 down to beat Toledo St. Francis 49-40.
The Hawks roster for the games included Dave Brown, Nick Frasco, Rick Deichert, Caleb Willhight, Jared Sturt, Jonathan Krueger, Dixon Stoddard, Thad Woodard and Julius Turner.

CCHS 6.4.11 Game 2: MV 55 – Cardinal Stritch 38
Stritch will have a decidedly different look in 2011-12. There are three or four new transfers-in for the Cardinals. They will have much more depth than last year, especially at the guard spot.
Overall, this bodes well for the TAAC's depth in the upcoming season. In addition to perennial contenders OH and TC, four other teams – MV, SC, EC and new entrant Gibsonburg – will not be pushovers. The TAAC's out-of-conference record should be much improved and there will be few nights off during league play.
The Hawks rode Julius’ hot hand in the first half. The Hawk swing man scored 13 points in the first half to lead all scorers. Jonathan Krueger fired in a three pointer at the buzzer to end the half with MV leading 30-15.
The Cardinals are known for their tough play, and they didn’t disappoint today. Both teams were banging under the boards. But in the end, the Hawks’ experience and strength paid off for the win.
Scoring for MV: Rick 14, Dave 5, Jared 9, Julius 19, Jon 5, Thad 3.
The competition gets tougher this week for the Blue and White at Central. On Thursday, the Hawks will face D-II Woodward from the City League and D-1 Anthony Wayne, which features NCAA Division 1 prospect Mark Donnal - brother of Iowa redshirt Freshman offensive lineman Andrew and son of all around good guy Ron Donnal.
Video Highlights.
1. Julius driving down main street for two.
2. Julius again – this time a three from the corner.
3. Rick pulls up for a three off the fast break.
4. Rick scores his second three in as many possessions.
5. Thad scores his first summer league points from the line. He would score two more on a pretty put-back later in the game.

CCHS 6.4.11 Game 1: MV 65 – Woodmore 30
Woodmore is a Division III school which played in the now-defunct SLL last year. They went 10-10 and 6-6 in their league. It looks like they only lost two seniors from their main rotation last year, so many letter winners are back for the summer.
The Hawks jumped on the Wildcats early and never looked back, leading 44-11 at the half on the strength of 11 points by Dave and 9 by Julius. MV rolled out a man press midway through the half to break the game open. Woodmore also struggled against MV’s superior height.
Of note – when your Hawkblog editor left the building today, Woodmore was holding their own with City League D-II Waite.
Scoring for the Hawks – Rick 7, Dave 14, Julius 16, Jared 8, Jon 11, Dixon 4, Caleb 5.
Video Highlights:
1. Jon Krueger from the foul line for two.
2. Jared cleans up after a Dave Brown drive
3. Rick hits for three from the left wing.
4. Dave gets his two driving the lane
5. Jared with another two off a miss.

Hey, we're back with summer league action and more
June is here, and that means…Summer League basketball of course!
After a three month hiatus, your Hawkblog returns for an abbreviated run through the Central Catholic and Premier Basketball (fka Mix center) leagues.
We will also run some features and catch up with some regular season action over the next six weeks.
The Hawks opened summer league play with a 43-31 victory over D-1 Sylvania Northview the CC gym this evening under the direction of CC league coach Carter Bayer ‘10. It was the first time the Hawks starting five have played as a unit since the end of the regular season.
More than a few team members were out studying for finals, but eight players suited up for today’s action: Dave Brown, Rick Deichert, Nick Frasco, Caleb Willhight, Jared Sturt, Jonathan Krueger, Dixon Stoddard, and Julius Turner.
MV jumped out to an early 18-5 lead and was up 20-10 at the half. Northview started the second half strong and pulled to within 22-19, but the Blue and White found their bearings late and pulled away at the end for the 11 point win.
Nobody kept a scorebook, and therefore, no stats are available for this game. But what game summary would be complete without video highlights? These are all second half highlights:
Next, Jared Sturt blocks not one, but two shots and Nick Frasco finishes at the offensive end with a tip-in.
Jared spins in to the paint for a basket

Next, Jared Sturt blocks not one, but two shots and Nick Frasco finishes at the offensive end with a tip-in.
Rick throws a nice entry pass to Jared for two (bonus T-Peezy audio commentary provided by Mrs. Krueger at end of clip).
Julius dishes to Jon on the break
Jared spins in to the paint for a basket
And finally, Coach Bayer looks on as Julius finds Jared underneath.
It’s good to see the guys back in action.
PS - get well soon Coach!!
