Great to see the boys get some love for all the work they have put in to change the culture of Clay Basketball. We are just getting started and not even close to satisfied! Coach LA is a true leader of men. His work ethic and dedication to excellence is contagious!

Winners 37-29 over a super tough Emmanuel Christian team who are TAAC champs with just 1 loss going into tonight. Great team defense all around, holding one of the highest scoring teams in the area to under 30. Finished the season undefeated at home this year. I LOVE THIS TEAM 👊
Huge win today in the

My 8th grade boys had a great season. 15 wins. Lost in the semi final tonight in our league tournament. No excuses, gotta get better. This is the last team photo I have. Love these kids, they will do great things!! 🏀
A lot of people, including myself, thought they were good at basketball in high school. Then we found ourselves on the same court as Ethan Michael and realized we were wrong.
Congratulations to Ethan Michael (2009) for being inducted to the TAAC Hall of Fame on Friday! He never lost a game at TC in 8 years. He was TAAC POY in 2007, 2008, and CO-POY in 2009. 2nd team all-state, District POY 2009 and first team all district 2007 and 2008.
Big win tonight to open the season for the

Great to have the squad back together last night. 38-29 win in the Titan Dome vs. Findlay Donnell. Mason Williams led all scorers with 15 points, 11 in the second half. 3 in a row for the boys and 7-2 on the year.

What a win by these kids today, 46-45 over Lima South. Playing with just 7 and our starting PG fouled out late 3Q. Stayed composed and found a way to pull it out. I love this TEAM.

GRITTY!! 💪

Proud of my JV Eagles for putting together 4 good quarters of basketball against a solid Southview team. Got the win 48-29 and move to 1-1 in the NLL Cardinal. Varsity played their butts off but came up short in overtime, 51-55. 17 days until our next game! Merry Christmas 🎄 🦅

Cluckey suffered a traumatic throat injury last season, but persevered to sign and play at the next level today.
Big win @ St. Francis today for the boys. Always fun beating your rival. A great team win with another balanced scoring effort. These boys really do play hard for each other. It’s a special group! That’s 6 in a row, now 10-2 on the year. 🏀
Welcome to Rice Basketball Academy Ethan James‼️‼️
Would like to welcome back and introduce 15U point guard Ethan James‼️‼️ Ethan is a freshman at St John’s Jesuit in Toledo, Ohio. Quick and shifty PG who can score and create for others! Relentless defender! 💪🏾
Coach Schoen and the boys are absolutely locked in tonight. The ball is flying around. Beautiful.

I love my Buckeyes but tickets are too expensive, the drive is awful and the food at Ohio Stadium is abysmal. I rather sit on my coach with my wife and dogs and eat my body weight in buffalo chicken dip. 🤷🏻♂️
Our first annual Summer League came to a close yesterday with an exciting end-of-season tournament filled with double overtimes, last second wins and overall great competition! Thank you to all who participated! 🏀
What a win tonight for these boys. 36-32 in overtime against a very skilled Fremont Ross team who was 6-1 coming into tonight. Mason Williams (not pictured) hit two huge free throws in OT to seal the game. 6-2 on the year. I love this team! 🏀 💪
I’ve watched this 20 times in a row. I’ve seen a few in the comments saying it was the right call. Are they trolling? This seems as clean as it gets. Best part? The kid not complaining about the terrible call and just getting back on D.
Been seeing a whole lot of

Not a coincidence that this blog dropped the same day that the HBO podcast with Condal came out to discuss these exact gripes GRRM is writing about. Let's get the boys together for a live stream discussion!
