Vikings' GMC goal denied
Loss means Princeton must share league title
BY CAREY HOFFMAN | ENQUIRER CONTRIBUTOR

Middletown and Princeton could meet again in 15 days, in a Division I boys' basketball sectional title game.
Based on the intensity of their matchup Friday, it could be one of the more frantic tournament games this season.
Princeton, the No. 4 team in the Enquirer Division I area coaches' poll, came into Middletown Friday night hoping to win the Greater Miami Conference title outright, but it was turned away as No. 9 Middletown won for the seventh time in its last eight games, 70-58.

Middletown was led by a pair of juniors, guard Allen Roberts and forward Bill Edwards. Roberts scored 28 points, including 12 during the key third period, while Edwards finished with 23 points and 13 rebounds.

Edwards stepping up after injury


By Kevin Aldridge

Friday, February 08, 2008


News flash: Middies forward Bill Edwards Jr. is good ? real good.
If his 28-point, 10-rebound exhibition against the Hamilton Big Blue last Friday wasn't enough to convince you, Edwards turned around on Tuesday and dropped another double-double, 33 points and 13 boards, on the Mason Comets. In each contest ? both victories, by the way ? the 6-foot-6 junior looked like a man among boys.
His play over the past week is the type that makes college recruiters salivate.
Middies basketball coach Bob Ronai said this may be the best two-game stretch of Edwards' career at Middletown.
"He's starting to come into his own," Ronai said. "He's scoring points, but he's playing well in other areas too. He's rebounding well, and he's playing a lot better defensively."

Mojo making return to Middies
Division I sectional
BY TOM GROESCHEN | [email protected]

It still says "Middie Magic" on the Middletown boys' basketball team's purple warmup jackets.
Most of the magic happened more than 50 years ago, but the current Middies are trying to revive the glory days. Their latest display was a 77-59 thrashing of Aiken on Wednesday night at Xavier University's Cintas Center, in a Division I sectional semifinal game.
Middletown (15-7) was led by junior guard Allen Roberts (25 points, seven rebounds), senior forward Phillip Barnett (19 points), junior forward Bill Edwards (11 points, 16 rebounds) and senior center Lewis Berger (10 points).

NIKE Hoop Jamboree..........Edwards was one of the most productive players in the camp. Displayed his ability to hit the perimeter shot and play around the rim.

Bill sounds like the perfect 4 in Matta's lineups. He has a nice jumpshot with range and can rebound like it's his job. I hope we are still looking at him in case Riley and/or Orton decide to go elsewhere.

I honestly haven't seen him play, but 6'5'' is hard to fathom at PF...Could be a 3/4 combo, but if we are going to do that we have Wallace here already...

We need some size at the PF...We aren't lacking in 6'5'' wings...
According to the original post he was 6'5" over a year ago. I saw where I have seen him listed at 6'7" or 8". I really don't know.
