I started playing organized basketball in 3rd grade after a few years of wrestling and baseball, but I always loved watching basketball, so I decided to play.

In my freshman year, I played against Meadowbrook’s all-time leading scorer, Jake Singleton.

Who is the best team that Crooksville has faced, along with what made them so good?

Tri-Valley has a very good team with a deep roster full of many future college athletes.

What has been your biggest moment as a basketball player?

When I reached the 1,000-point milestone earlier this season in a win vs. Meadowbrook.

Our good start to the season, and we had a game where we scored 92 points in a 92-67 win vs. Trimble.

We started the season with only 7 varsity players, and 1 starter quit midseason, and 1 other starter got a season-ending injury.

What will it take for Crooksville to finish the regular season off strong?

Our younger guys to step up and fill big roles make an impact heading into the postseason.

What has been the best and worst part of the recruiting process?

The best part is meeting new people and going on visits and learning more about different schools. The worst part is all the decision-making and not knowing if you will hear back from coaches.

Semi Pro: Columbus Fire 8 Port City Spartans 0 (Game called in the third because of fighting)

Image
  Yesterday I drove to Portsmouth and met up with my friend Bill Norman after dinner at The Portsmouth Brewing Company before driving over to Spartan Stadium to watch the semi-pro football game and watch the Port City Spartans host the Columbus Fire. I have been to over 1,500 football games, or close to that amount, and I can say none of them prepared me for what I ended up seeing. The stadium had one set of lights that did not work at all that I had seen before (Jackson State University). One pole had a light missing, and another pole had one single light that did not work at all on the visitor's side, making the field dark. I saw a fan on the Spartans side of the field standing with the players vaping, and I saw a player setting on the bench for most of the game also vaping. The game itself was stopped once when the refs walked off the field for what one player on the Spartans said was because a Columbus player said something about going after the ref with a gun. Then a fight bro...

  Logan Doughty Miller High School Quarterback, free safety 2025 6,2 170 lbs What are some of the awards you have won or earned? Two times first team all MSL, two times first team all district, two times honorable mention all Ohio What were the high and low points of the 2023 season? I’d say a high point would be doubling our wins from the 2022 season. Some low points would be losing three close games that would’ve given us a higher seed in tournament play and not being able to win a playoff game. What are your personal goals for the 2024 season? 1,500 rushing yards and 1,000 passing yards, 25 rushing touchdowns, and 15 passing touchdowns. How long have you played football, along with the reasons you continue to play? I have been playing football for 11 years. Football clicked as soon as I put the pads on; there’s something about it that I can’t get enough of. I’d say the reason I continue to play is my love for the game. Who or what got you interested in playing footb...
