Road to the State Championship: Irish will have hands full with Alemany guards 

By Jeremy Balan

The matchup between the Sacred Heart Cathedral and Bishop Alemany boys basketball teams in the Division III state championship on Saturday isn’t a clash of styles as much as it is a class of personnel.

As crazy as it may seem, the two teams appear to be mismatches for each other. The advantage is effectively to be determined.

Road to the State Championship: 2009 was just the beginning for Joshua Fox 

By Jeremy Balan

Joshua Fox didn’t play very much as a junior varsity call-up on the Sacred Heart Cathedral varsity boys basketball team that won the Division III state championship in 2009.

He didn’t have to. It was just a step in “The Plan.”

Road to the State Championship: Irish guards allow SHC to reach higher level

Road to the State Championship: Irish guards allow SHC to reach higher level 

By Jeremy Balan

Sacred Heart Cathedral head boys basketball coach Darrell Barbour has said it so many times this season — when the guards are on, the Irish play at another level.

Everyone expects big games out of standout senior forwards Taylor Johns and Joshua Fox, but the Irish are at their best when their main rotation of four guards — juniors Khalil James and Herman Pratt, senior Tyler Petroni, and sophomore DeOndre Otis — are firing at all cylinders.

All four players are multidimensional, but they gravitate to specific roles and thrive in them.

Road to the State Championship: Zach Tapel’s season-long struggle

Road to the State Championship: Zach Tapel’s season-long struggle 

By Jeremy Balan

The most prominent decoration in Zach Tapel’s bedroom is a normal sheet of white paper pinned up above his bed.

It could have come from a printer, a copy machine or just a stack of similar pages, but it’s what is written on the sheet that drives Tapel, a senior on the Sacred Heart Cathedral boys basketball team.

It’s not fancy. In fact, it’s quite rudimentary. In thick black marker, Tapel wrote a date down, “11-11-11.”

It’s the date of one of the most painful moments of his life, both physically and emotionally.

Road to the State Championship: Taylor Johns’ high-flying impact

Road to the State Championship: Taylor Johns’ high-flying impact 

By Jeremy Balan

On the scoreboard, an ordinary jump shot and an emphatic dunk are both worth two points, but their impact on a game can be entirely different.

The spark and momentum gained from a dunk, especially in high school basketball, can be the difference between winning and losing. Sacred Heart Cathedral senior forward Taylor Johns has provided that spark on so many occasions this season.
