Fields’ Findings

county basketball team, Van Buren, had a strangle hold on the Greencastle-IHSAA basketball sectional. That school was swallowed up in the Northview consolidation, but not before being ousted from the sectional field by a Cloverdale team that reigned over Putnam County and the WCC for three seasons. In those three sectional championship seasons, coach Al Tucker’s Cloverdale teams won over 60 games, including the 20-0 record of 1981-82 season by starters Jim Price, Bill Chestnut, Mark McCammon, Chad Tucker and Jerry Neese. The 1982-83 team played in the Hall of Fame Classic at New Castle against 1983 Mr. Basketball Steve Alford. FOR TUCKER, IT was only the beginning of a basketball career that has not yet ended. After scoring 1,338 points for Cloverdale and being named to the Indiana High School All-Star Team, Tucker grew another two inches, became Butler University’s all-time scoring leader and led the Bulldogs to an NIT game against Indiana University and Alford. The 6-8 Tucker has since played professionally in Europe and is averaging 20 points a game in a professional league in Taiwan. Putnam County basketball has been extremely competitive in the 1980 s. All but one county school won at least one sectional title. After two decades without a sectional championship, Greencastle exploded in 1987, not only winning the sectional, but also the regional. When Shakamak upset Terre Haute South in the afternoon session, it opened the door for the Tiger Cubs, who marched into the Terre Haute semistate. LED BY COACH Doug Miller, Brett “Moose” Hecko, Brad VanBibber, Chad Remsburg and Pete Huber, the Tiger Cubs defeated Evansville Memorial in the afternoon session and played Damon Bailey and the Bedford-North Lawrence Stars in the title contest. Greencastle became part the growing Bailey legend by staying with Bedford into the fourth quarter before the Stars pulled away. Ten Putnam County teams reached semistates of IHSAA tournaments this decade. South’s football teams did it four straight years from 1985-1988 and Greencastle’s and Cloverdale’s basketball teams did it in 1987 and 1983. Greencastle’s 1986 and Cloverdale’s 1982 volleyball teams also reached the semistate, South’s cross country team in 1988 and Greencastle’s baseball team in 1989. Putnam County girls basketball teams did not fare so well in the decade. Greencastle in 1980 and South in 1982 captured the only two sectional titles won. THE THREE BEST girls to play basketball for a Putnam County high school came out of the 1980 s. Ann Hutcheson left 1,534

career points behind at Cloverdale High School when she joined Greencastle’s Tawnya Pierce at Murray State University this year. And Debbie Mann, who scored 1,132 points for Cloverdale, is now a member of the Ball State University team. Although much less attention was paid to it, the most surprising sectional title in the last 10 years came from the 1985 Greencastle boys swimming team. The Tiger Sharks won the Bloomington sectional competing against Bloomington North and South, Terre Haute North and South and Bedford-North Lawrence. Among the members of that team for firstyear coach Brad Hayes were Chris Haymaker, Mike Opdahl, Quentin Oliver, Ron Pitcock, foreign exchange student Roman Huber and Pat Condon. DEPAUW UNIVERSITY’S basketball team went from a 5-20 record in 1980-1981 to six consecutive winning seasons under Steele and Waltman. Since Tucker retired from coaching, Cloverdale has tumbled from the semistate level to a team that won just one game last year and last summer made Jeff Cherry its fifth coach of the decade. North Putnam’s football program started the decade as the top contender in Putnam County. It closes the decade with potential to reach that level again. Under Gene Roe, the Cougars qualified for the playoffs in 1980, under the IHSAA’s points system. Herb King became North’s fifth coach in the last 10 years when he was hired two weeks before practice opened last fall. NORTH RETURNS ALL but two players from a team that reached the sectional championship game this year. Greencastle’s football program also closes the 1980 s on a down note. After a four-year run of seasons like 9-1, 6-4, 9-1 and 8-2, the Tiger Cubs slipped off to a series of .500 records. For the decade, coach John Fallis’ teams, with players like Mike and Pat Meyer, all-stater Steve Penley, Mike Cooper and Kevin Barnett, have posted a 58-42 decade. Names from the decade flood my mind. Stars like North’s pole vaulter Chet Clodfelter, the multitalented Glen Logan, hard throwing lefty Randy Collier, rebounding Alison Phipps and Greencastle’s running Joe Franklin, the driving Brent Atwell, the underrated Chuck Johnson, leaping Rose Moore, running Julie Rainbolt and South’s Denise Weinhoeft, Kim Zeronik, Tim Thomas, Brett Meek, Sean Pack, Bob Schroer and Todd Messer and Cloverdale’s Craig Whitaker, Sonny Stoltz, Laura Roach, Lisa Evans, Julie Sublett and Vonda Hughes could fill another edition’s pages. Happy New Year and may be 1990 s bring more of the same.

By WILLIAM F. RAWSON Associated Press Writer PHOENIX (AP) Reebok ripoffs? Converse copies? A phony Pony?

Steal seals victory for Penn State SAN DIEGO (AP) Gary Brown stole the ball from Ty Detmer, who had thrown for a Holiday Bowl record 576 yards, and ran 53 yards for a touchdown to clinch Penn State’s 50-39 victory over Brigham Young Friday night. It was one of the wildest games in the Holiday Bowl, which has a history of high scores and incredible finishes. The 89 points fell two short of the Holiday Bowl record, set by BYU and Southern Methodist in 1980. Jim McMahon of BYU threw for 446 yards, the previous passing record, in leading the Cougars back to victory in that game. DETMER COULDN’T bring back these Cougars (10-3), although he completed 42 of 60 passes. His second touchdown pass, a 3-yarder to Brent Nybetg with 2:34 to go brought BYU within two points, 41-39. The 19th-ranked Cougars, who had driven 90 yards, went for two points. But Detmer’s pass was intercepted by linebacker Andre Collins, who returned it 102 yards, with Penn State awarded the two points. Then Brown made sure the 18thranked Nittany Lions (8-3-1) stayed in front when he took the ball out of Detmer’s hands as the quarterback tried to throw and raced untouched to the end zone.
