Our Saturday morning began with our first look this year at the Spiece
Central Stars. This is a central Indiana based team that we featured last
month and a group that won several tournaments a year ago. This was a pool
game against the AFE Wizards, a squad of players from the suburbs of Detroit.

This game was dominated in the first half by New Castle guard Zach
Hahn who matched AFE's first half output all by himself with a 17 point
effort to lead the Central Stars to a comfortable 45-17 advantage. They
never looked back from that point. Hahn told us after the game that he is
hearing from Utah, Butler and several Mid-American schools. He is a nifty
point guard who showed an improved jumper over what we recalled from last year
as evidenced by three first half treys. Zach said his 3A state
championship New Castle team is excited about a chance to repeat and that the
Trojans will be involved in the annual Marsh Hall of Fame Classic over the
Christmas holiday tourney that will also feature Valparaiso, Indianapolis
Cathedral and one other team at the New Caste 10,000 seat gym.
