    Withrow outlasts Loveland, 57-49

    Loveland Varsity Boys lost to Withrow on Friday, February 2, 57-49, after Withrow asserted its height advantage in the fourth quarter.

    Loveland used 93% free-throw shooting to keep the game close all night. But after a fiercely competitive third quarter in which sophomore Ian Cox scored seven points and Junior Tripp Willis added six, Withrow’s 6’11” Abba Lawal took over on the boards in the final stanza to key a definitive 10-2 run.

    Junior Gabe Rubio led Loveland with 12 points and six rebounds. Willis and Cox finished with 10 and 9 points, respectively. Senior Austin Huynh swished a crowd-pleasing 35-foot shot as time expired.

    Withrow’s Mike Hill, Jr., led all scorers with 21.

    Junior Tripp Willis posted a double-double for the Tigers, grabbing 11 rebounds and scoring 11 points, including 8 straight in the first half. Junior Jalen Greiser scored 10 points and sophomore Alec Soth added 8.

    Loveland Tiger Tripp Willis scored 16 against the Braves

    by Todd Robinson

    A shorthanded Loveland men’s basketball team hosted the Cincinnati Hills League’s number two team, Indian Hill, Saturday, February 3rd at Tiger Court. Five varsity contributors were watching the game in street clothes due to injury or illness.

    The Braves entered the game with a 12-4 record, with only Deer Park ahead of them in the CHL standings. 

    Indian Hill held off a late Tiger rally to claim the victory, 53-50.



    On Senior night, Tiger Nation paid tribute to 6 cheerleaders and 4 players prior to the game.  Cheerleaders Caroline Bond, Lillie Clepper, Chasity Haskamp, Kelsey Micsky, Ashley Schmoock, and Miya Shultz were all given a load ovation by the Crowd. Senior players Austin Huynh, Brady McCluskey, Jack Stewart, and Parker Carrigan all started the game for the Tigers. 

    Stewart knocked in a three pointer in the opening minutes of the game to the delight of the Loveland student section. And Austin Huynh scored three consecutive points in the second quarter, earning a loud roar from the crowd.

    In a close first half, the Tigers trailed by 3 points at halftime, 22-19.

    A trey by Matt Toigo coming out of the locker room knotted the game at 22. But a 19-5 run by the Braves gave them a seemingly insurmountable 41-27 advantage early in the 4th quarter. But the ever-resilient Tigers scrapped and clawed to within 1-point, 51-50, with 28 seconds left. Two Indian Hill free throws extended their lead to 3. In the last 20 seconds, Loveland launched three attempts from beyond the arc for the tying field goal, but none would go down. 

    Indian Hill improved their season record to 13-4 and the Tigers dropped to 5-13.  Matt Toigo and Tripp Willis led the scoring effort for the Tigers with 18 and 16 points respectively.

    Laman co-founded a charity called “Adopt a Book” to benefit kids in need, and since 2011 has led initiatives that collected and distributed more than 130,000 new and gently-used children’s books to more than 100 locations in the U.S. and abroad. Hannah also established and now maintains a Little Free Library in her own community, and donated a number of bookshelves and “reading buddies” to help kids and child organizations create personal reading spaces.
