Milford, Ohio – The Loveland men’s basketball team traveled to Milford on January 23, taking on the Eagles. In front of a loud and boisterous Milford student section, the Tigers fell 49-38 to the Eagles. Milford never trailed the entire game.
The Eagles jumped out to a 6-0 lead and held a 10-7 advantage after the first quarter. A Jalen Greiser field goal to start the second quarter pulled the Tigers to within 1 point, but that was the closest they’d get the rest of the night. The Eagles expanded their lead to 31-21 at the half. With Loveland point guard Brenton Foust leading an 8-3 run to close the third quarter, Tiger Nation was optimistic as the gap closed to 39-31 at the end of three. The Tiger momentum carried into the fourth quarter as Greiser scored the first five points of the final stanza to close the gap to 3 points. But Milford responded and slowly pulled away the balance of the quarter, taking the victory with a final score of 49-38.
With the win, the Eagles earned a share of second place in the ECC. The loss dropped the Tigers to 5-9 overall and 3-5 in the ECC. Jalen Greiser led the Tigers with 22 points.

Loveland, Ohio – The Tiger women easily defeated (1-8, 5-10) Milford on Wednesday night in the Loveland gym and had a lot of fun and camaraderie along the way. The women are now 7-1, 12-1 and remain 2nd in ECC play behind Walnut Hills (7-0, 14-1) who handed the Tigers their only loss. The Tigers travel to Kings (4-5, 6-8) on Saturday afternoon to take on the Conference’s 5th place team.
The final score was 43-62. Jillian Hayes led both teams with 13 points and brought down 5 rebounds and had 2 assists. Kate Garry scored 9, all from beyond the arc. Scoring 8 were Courtney Henthorn and Colleen Swift. Ten Tigers got in the scoring column.
Loveland, Ohio – Despite having the day off school due to the continuing arctic temperatures, the Loveland men’s varsity basketball team was in action Tuesday night. The Tigers hosted Archbishop McNicholas, the state’s #2 ranked team in Division 2. The Rockets entered the game with a perfect 11-0 record.
McNich’s 55-41 victory over the Tigers set a new school record for the Rockets – the first time they have ever started a season with twelve consecutive wins. But the McNicholas victory wasn’t easy, as the Tigers played one of their best games of the year. The Tigers surprised the Rockets and jumped out to an early 13-6 lead behind 6 points by Jalen Greiser and 5 by Matt Toigo. A Jeffrey Mains fast break layup midway through the second quarter gave Loveland a 20-14 lead. But the Rockets responded with a 15-0 run before Greiser hit a bucket at the end of the second quarter.
Going into the locker room, the Rockets led the Tigers 29-22. Much to the delight of Tiger Nation and Rockets fans, the Kings Firecrackers performed their riveting jump rope show at the half, closing to a standing ovation by the appreciative crowd.
Alex Soth opened the second half scoring with a field goal, cutting the Rocket lead to 5 points – the closest it would be the rest of the game. McNicholas slowly build on their lead, expanding it to 40-29 at the end of 3 quarters. And despite intense Tiger defensive pressure in the fourth quarter, the Rockets remained undefeated with the 55-41 victory.
Jalen Greiser led the Tigers with 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists. Matt Toigo had 11 points and Alec Soth had a game high 8 rebounds. Loveland’s record is now 4-8. (2-4 in ECC). Loveland hosts Turpin at Tiger Court on Friday night.

In a battle of Tigers on this Tuesday night, host Withrow knocked off the Loveland men’s basketball team 44-24. Loveland entered the game shorthanded, as three regular starters were out with injuries. Ultimately, a combination of a very active Withrow defense and a lack of Loveland scoring punch proved too much for visiting Tigers to overcome. Loveland took its only lead early in the game, 3-2, behind a Brady McCluskey trey. Battling hard, Loveland trailed 11-8 after the first quarter, but Loveland was able to score only 5 points in the second and third quarters combined, and that enabled Withrow to take a commanding 29-13 lead into the final quarter. Four quick points by Loveland to open the final quarter caused Tiger Nation to think about a comeback, but Withrow answered the challenge and finished with a 44-24 victory. Loveland’s overall record became 4-4 on the season and 2-2 in the Eastern Cincinnati Conference.
January 5 hosting Anderson
On a frigid Friday night, the Loveland men’s basketball team fell to the visiting Anderson Redskins, 40-37, in an ECC league matchup. Ultimately, a poor first half doomed the Tigers. Scoring only 8 points in the first two quarters, Loveland dug itself a 25-8 halftime hole against the 2-7 Redskins. But Coach Reis got his players to turn it around in the second half.
After picking up their defensive intensity, the Tigers won the third quarter, 11-5, narrowing the gap to 30-19.
A 13-6 run by the Tigers over the first 5 minutes of the fourth quarter, highlighted by 7 consecutive Jalen Greiser points, brought Loveland to within 4 coming down the stretch. An Ian Cox bucket followed by an Alec Soth trey ignited an excited Tiger Nation and brought Loveland all the way back, tying the game 37-37 with 1:15 left in the game. Over the next 40 seconds, the Redskins took a 40-37 lead, knocking down three free throws from the charity stripe. The Tigers called a timeout with 28 seconds to play, looking to design a play to tie the game. But Anderson came out of the timeout in a zone defense for the first time all night – frustrating the Tiger attack. After a final Loveland timeout with 5 seconds left, Greiser’s desperation trey from 30 feet bounced off the rim and the Redskins took home the 40-37 victory.
After being out 3 weeks with a foot injury, Greiser returned to action and led the Tigers with 13 points and 7 rebounds. Matt Toigo kicked in 9 points and Brenton Foust had 5 steals in an outstanding defensive effort. The loss dropped Loveland’s record to 4-5 (2-3 in the ECC).
January 6 at Sycamore
Playing its second game in two nights, the Loveland men’s basketball team made the short trip to Sycamore, falling 52-42 to the Greater Miami Conference’s Aviators. With perimeter shooting continuing to be as cold as the arctic temperatures outside, the Tigers couldn’t overcome Sycamore’s balanced attack.
The first half was a back-and-forth affair with both teams holding the lead several times. The most exciting play of the half was a Loveland basket that didn’t count – as Tiger Brenton Foust launched a three quarter court shot that swished through the net a split second after time expired in the first quarter. Ultimately, the two teams were tied 16-16 entering the halftime locker room.
The Tigers opened the second half with a strong run, taking a 25-21 lead midway through the third quarter. But an 11-0 run by the Aves over the next 3 minutes gave Sycamore a lead they would never relinquish.
Entering the final quarter down 32-27, the Tigers cut the Aviator lead to 3 points several time early in the fourth quarter, but could never get that big basket to reclaim the lead. Sycamore slowly pulled away down the stretch, topping the Tigers with a 52-42 final score.
Matt Toigo led the Tiger attack with 12 points. The Sycamore victory evened their record at 5-5. The loss was Loveland’s fourth consecutive defeat, with an overall record of 4-6 (2-3 in ECC). .
January 9 at Walnut Hills
Loveland returned to action in the Eastern Cincinnati Conference Tuesday, traveling to Walnut Hills to take on the league leading Eagles. Despite a strong effort, the Tigers fell 69-50 to the Eagles.
In front of a small midweek Walnut Hills crowd, Loveland took an early 3-2 lead behind a Matt Toigo field goal and a Parker Carrigan free throw. But a 17-4 run by the Eagles gave them a lead they would never relinquish.
At the half, Walnut Hills was up 29-18. With their strongest offensive half over the past three games, Loveland cut the Eagles lead to 10 points several times in the third quarter. Unfortunately, the Tigers could never close the gap to single digits, as at one point in the third quarter, Walnut Hills countered was four consecutive treys.
The Tigers won the effort stats for the game, out-rebounding the taller Eagles and generating more steals, but Walnut Hills’ 51% shooting efficiency was the difference in their 69-50 victory.
Jalen Greiser led the Tigers with 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists. Matt Toigo knocked in 11 points. Jack Stewart earned the first varsity points of his career, hitting a trey late in the fourth quarter. Loveland’s record now stands at 4-7 (2-4 in ECC).
The Tigers host 7-3 West Clermont on Friday night, January 12 at 7:30 PM.
Loveland, Ohio-The Tiger women came from an 8 point 3rd quarter deficit on Saturday for a 1-point win over then, 2nd place West Clermont. Loveland moved up a spot in ECC standings with the win. The Conference leader is still Walnut Hills (6-0, 11-1). Loveland is now 6-1 and 11-1. West Clermont is now 5-1, 9-4 and moved down to 3rd place with the loss.

West Clermont added to their lead to make it an 8-point lead outscoring the Tigers by 4 in the 3rd period. A 20-12 scoring advantage in the final quarter gave Loveland the come from behind win in the final seconds of play.

Loveland, Ohio – In a rare Loveland basketball varsity doubleheader, the squads for both the women’s and men’s teams took on neighboring rival Kings at Tiger Court on Friday night. In front of an energetic and spirited near-capacity crowd, the Tiger roundballers didn’t disappoint. Both teams delighted a raucous Tiger Nation with exciting victories. The atmosphere with Loveland’s friendly rival was electric, as the floor-to-ceiling Tiger student section sported their ugly Christmas sweaters, the Kings student section was large and loud, the Tiger Pep Band was rocking, Tiger alumni were out in force, and the State Championship women’s soccer team was inducted into the Loveland Tiger Hall of Fame at halftime of the men’s game.

In the opening game, Loveland’s Coach Parker has the undefeated women playing an exciting full court game. Rotating his squad through 32 minutes of relentless defensive pressure, the Tigers wore down the Knights en route to a 50-36 victory. After taking a 26-18 lead to the halftime locker room, the Tigers sported a 15-5 third quarter run to fuel their win against a scrappy Kings team. The Loveland victory avenged a 2017 series sweep by the Knights. Tiger Kate Garry was honored as the NovaCare Player of the Game. The Lady Tigers remain undefeated at 7-0 (5-0 ECC) and travel to St. Ursula on Tuesday evening.
In the second half of the twin bill, the Tigers men’s team extended their winning streak over the Knights to three games over two years with a hard fought 52-44 victory. With two starters out with injuries, the Tigers got off to a rocky start. Loveland started with 5 consecutive turnovers and didn’t get their first shot up until over three minutes into the game. Kings leveraged 7 total first quarter Tiger turnovers to jump out to an 11-5 lead after the opening stanza.
Three consecutive treys to start the second quarter, the first by Alec Soth, and the next two by Matt Toigo energized the Tigers and the crowd. The Tigers outscored the Knights 23-9 in the second quarter, giving Loveland a 28-20 halftime lead.
After senior Brady McCluskey opened the third quarter with a three and extended the Tiger lead to 11, the Knights fought their way back into the game. Despite junior Gabe Rubio’s six straight points in the middle of the quarter, the Knights closed their deficit to two points, 39-37, at the end of three quarters.
A Knight trey to open the fourth quarter gave Kings a 40-39 lead, their first since the second quarter, but a Toigo field goal put the Tigers back on top, a lead they would not relinquish the rest of the way. However, the Knights made it interesting down the stretch. A Knights bucket with 52 seconds left cut the Tiger lead to 46-44. With fouls to give, Kings fouled on three consecutive plays. On the fourth out of bounds play, the Tigers called a quick time out under frantic Knights defensive pressure as both sides scrambled for the basketball. Coming out of the timeout, Kings fouled Alec Soth. Now in the bonus, Soth calmly knocked down two free throws. A Tiger steal lead to two McCluskey free throws. And two more free throws with 7 seconds remaining closed out the game for the Tigers, with the final score 52-44.
The Tigers were led by senior Brady McCluskey with 17 points. Sophomore Alec Soth kicked in 10 points and 6 rebounds. Matt Toigo scored 10 points. Brady McCluskey was awarded the NovaCare Player of the Game.
The Men improved their record to 3-2 (2-1 ECC) and host Little Miami on Tuesday evening.

Loveland, Ohio – The Milford Eagles descended on Tiger Court Tuesday, December 12, looking to avenge last year’s series sweep by the Loveland men’s basketball team. The Tigers fought hard, taking a three point lead into the fourth quarter, but ultimately fell to the unbeaten Eagles 57-52.

Coming out of the break, the Eagle made an obvious adjustment, trying to speed up their transition game to beat the Tigers’ defensive pressure, but behind a 15-9 third quarter run fueled by Jalen Greiser and Matt Toigo, the Tigers took a 37-34 lead into the final stanza.

Columbus, Ohio– On Friday, 11/10, Loveland High School soccer competed for the Division I state title at the Columbus MAPFRE stadium. The team bested Perrysburg High School 1-0, earning Loveland the OHSAA state championship. Junior Brooke Harden scored the winning goal with 21:20 remaining in the first half. The two teams battled for the next hour but failed to score again.
Loveland competed in the state championship in 2015 and fell to Walsh Jesuit. The freshman and sophomore players– now juniors and seniors– made it their mission to come back and claim the title. Players wrote messages about “The Mission” over car windows and fans held signs. The team was sent off to Columbus Thursday evening with a performance from the Loveland Marching Band, a police and fire escort out of the City, and a crowd gathered on a Loveland street corner to wave and cheer to the busses. At MAPFRE stadium, the home of the Columbus Crew, Loveland bolstered a packed stadium section of enthusiastic black-and-orange spectators with face paint and noisemakers.

For around an hour, Perrysburg fought without avail to take away the one-point lead Loveland held. Perrysburg attempted to score several times (notably within the last minute) but goalie and senior Lauren Parker consistently deflected and guarded the goal. Parker earned her 50th career shutout. She will play for the Miami Redhawks next year.
“I can’t even put it into words. We’ve had this goal since we lost two years ago and we just did it. That’s all I can say,” Parker told Loveland Magazine in a post-game interview.

As the game neared an end, the stands turned to bedlam and rowdy excitement. Fans jumped, screamed, and cheered as it became clear that Loveland would take home the State Champion trophy.
When the clock hit zero, the team burst into emotion and ecstatic tears. Coaches and players embraced, jumped and screamed. A sign stating “The Mission Is Complete” appeared in the hands of players, while parents and friends embraced over the fence.
“It feels like we broke through a limit that was set two years ago”
“It feels like we broke through a limit that was set two years ago when we came in second. It felt like we finally accomplished the goal we had been working so hard for every year,” said Senior Colleen “Jelly” Swift.
Loveland paid their respects to the state runner-up while Perrysburg accepted their trophy and medals. Loveland players encouraged each other to clap for each opposing player and congratulate them on their success.
“As a coach, I am so proud of these kids and this program, but I am equally proud to have coached so many amazing young ladies. I am exceptionally of the fine young women they have turned out to be. The love and support that our alumni have shown through the years have been off the charts, as has Tiger Nation. Thanks to the Loveland community, alumni and administration… this one’s for you,” head coach Todd Kelly said in an official release.
A teary-eyed Julie Rener (athletic director) handed state champion medals to euphoric players and coaches. Teammates hugged and cried into each other’s shoulders in excited shock. Parents screamed and fans hollered. There was hardly a dry eye on the loveland side of the MAPFRE field.
“We became a family this season because we wanted to play for the player standing next to us and we did not want to let them down”
“I still can’t believe we just won state. It’s like it hasn’t processed into my brain yet because it’s just so amazing and unbelievable… We became a family this season because we wanted to play for the player standing next to us and we did not want to let them down. Also, I️ think our little saying, “Humble and Hungry”, played a big role in every one of us through our mission. Everyone used that to their own abilities which made us unstoppable,” Brooke Harden told Loveland Magazine.
