The county tournament Roundball Reunion is growing as the event date nears.

At last, Cincinnati has finally played a couple spring training games and I can officially write about results on the field instead of projections. While we have a bit of cold weather coming, the things should start to warm throughout the weekend, which means baseball weather is quickly approaching. Our beloved Redlegs are enjoying some good weather in Goodyear, Arizona now as well, as they are working on their game and many are competing for a roster spot on this very deep Reds roster.

The Top Ten teams in the Associated Press Ohio high school basketball poll with first-place votes in parentheses, won-loss record, and total points:

The third time wasn’t a charm for the Hillsboro Indians when they met Miami Trace for the third time this season Tuesday in a Division II sectional tournament game. The Panthers prevailed once again, 59-40, to conclude the Indians’ season.

Twenty-two Highland County student-athletes — nine boys and 13 girls — have been named to the Ohio District 14 Basketball Coaches Association 2023-24 all-district teams.

Beginning this weekend, we won’t go another Friday, Saturday or Sunday without Reds baseball until October (and hopefully well into October).

Hillsboro High School junior Tate Davis has been named to the 2023-24 All-Frontier Athletic Conference Player of the Year.

Shown below are the current Frontier Athletic Conference standings for the 2023-24 winter sports season:

In a game that was supposed to be played Jan. 19 but winter weather delayed until Tuesday, the Miami Trace Panthers clinched the Frontier Athletic Conference title outright with a 64-53 victory over the Hillsboro Indians.

Another Cincinnati native recently joined the team on a minor league deal with a chance to prove himself during spring training. Infielder Josh Harrison, former UC Bearcat, looks to make a splash over the next month and a half to make the roster, and he certainly is capable of doing so.
