Where does Mariemont play its games
One of the things I'd love to happen as a result of the blog is for more folks to get out and support our Wyoming athletes.
So, if you're like me, and didn't grow up here and know where each team plays its games, I will try to help you by noting when athletic venues are not located at our opponents' high schools.
Mariemont is a case in point. They have a full page listing their venues here. I will add the unwieldy label "Athletic Venues not at HS" so you can look them up in the future - go down the green bar on the right until you get to "Labels" - click on a label and it will bring up all posts with that label associated.
As for today, the Varsity baseball and softball teams both play at Mariemont. That means, however, that the softball team plays at Stanton Field and the baseball team plays at Fairfax Elementary
Stanton Field (JH Soccer, HS Softball)
From I-71: Take the Fairfax exit. Stay on Red Bank Rd, and go past Madison Rd., past Red Bank Distribution, to US RT 50. Take US RT 50 East. On US Rt 50 (Wooster Pike), go through Fairfax, past Mariemont Square. Stay on Rt 50 past Newton Rd, and turn right at 1st stop light past Newtown Rd, Elm St (UDF On Corner) Go about 1 mile on Elm, past elementary school and field is on left. For parking, turn left on Stanton, left on Myrtle, and park in school lot.
Fairfax Elementary (Var Baseball, JV Baseball)
From I-71: Take the Fairfax exit. Stay on Red Bank Rd, and go past Madison Rd., past Red Bank Distribution, to US RT 50. Take US RT 50 East. Go through the light and turn left just past Frisch’s Mainliner onto Southern Ave. Go three blocks and school is on left. Park in school lot or in swim club lot at the end of the street.

Baseball drops pair
The baseball team dropped a pair yesterday, 7-6 to CHCA and 20-10 to Milford.
In the first game, CHCA scored two runs in the bottom of the sixth to tied the game at six. Wyoming then loaded the bases in the top of the 7th but couldn't push a run across. CHCA scored the winning run in the bottom of the 7th on a suicide squeeze.
Ryan Bundy went 2-4 and Adam Chalmers had a double in the game.
In the Milford game, Ryan Bundy went 2-4 with 2 RBI, Max Kadish went 2-3 with a double and Michael Becker went 3-3 with 2 RBI.
The losses bring the team to 1-3, although two of the losses have been by a single run.
Next up: at Mariemont Monday at 4:30.

Nikki McKee CHL girls basketball Player of the Year
These were mentioned during the post on the Winter Sports Awards, but I wanted to make sure these didn't get lost in all the other detail.
Nikki McKee was named the CHL girls basketball Player of the Year. On its web site, the CHL lists the league leaders in three offensive and three defensive statistical categories: points per game, assists per game and field goal percentage for offense, and rebounds per game (although this includes offensive and defensive rebounds), blocks per game and steals per game. In the league, Nikki was 1st, 10th, 14th, 11th, 7th and tied for first. That's getting it done at both ends of the court.
Senior Sudy Graham and sophomore Michelle Jolson were named to the 2nd team.
Junior Hailee Schlager was named Honorable Mention.
Full listing here.

Tony Davis named first team All-CHL in boys basketball
Senior Tony Davis was named first team All-CHL boys basketball. Tony led the league in rebounding, was fourth in scoring and field goal percentage, and was seventh in blocked shots per game.
Junior Kyle Seyfried was named second team despite missing nine of Wyoming's 22 games with illness.
Senior Jacob Allsop and junior Eric Price were named Honorable Mention.
A tip of the hat to Indian Hill's Sam Hendricks. Anyone who was at the Wyoming-Indian Hill football game will remember Sam as the quarterback for the Braves. Sam was named CHL boys basketball Player of the Year. He was named the same for football. The CHL web site blogger believes he's the only athlete to pull off this feat. I'm thinking of going to Indian Hill's graduation ceremony to cheer when he receives his diploma.
Full all league listing here.

Random Sports Fact
"Fore!," the warning yelled by weekend duffers after hitting an errant golf shot, was originally an English military term. Back when soldiers fired rifles in lines, the command "Beware before!" was a signal for the front line to kneel or risk getting their heads blown off.

Jon Edgington and Miami Redhawks at Xavier
Jon Edgington, WHS '07, and his Miami Redhawks baseball team play at Xavier next Tuesday, April 6th at 3 PM. Jon, just a junior, has been selected as a co-captain for the 2010 season.
Xavier's home games are played at Hayden Field, right on campus. There was, surprisingly, a decent amount of convenient parking last time I went there.
Here is a map of Xavier's campus - Hayden Field is #8. I parked for free in the O'Connor Lot on the map.
