Continue ReadingMaybe the hardest conference to pick a team from due to the wealth of talent that it has, the Greater Miami Conference enjoyed another banner season on the hardwood. Teams like Mason and Oak Hills are talked about as some of the top teams in the state while other teams like Princeton and Lakota East are not that far behind. So after much deliberation and a lot of coffee, I give you the all GMC team.
All GMC Team:
Jarret Cox- Lakota East
2016-17 Stats: 18.4 PPG, 4.7 RPG, 2.9 APG
Cox is one of the premier scorers in the Cincinnati area, as his 18.4 point per game average was good enough to lead the GMC. The junior guard also showed the ability to be a solid play-maker as he ranked 5th in assist with 2.9 per game. This was a year that Cox put his name in as one of the best perimeter players in the city.
Eddie Puisis- Mason
2016-17 Stats: 17.3 PPG, 4.7 RPG, 48.5% FG
Another one of the premier scorers in the city, Puisis battled some injury issues to have a stellar senior season. The 6’2 senior finished third in the conference with his 17.3 points per game average. Eddie also proved to be one of the best shooters in the city with a shooting line of 48.5% from the floor, 39.8% from three and 87.7% from the line.
Matt King- Mason
2016-17 Stats: 12.3 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 1.1 BPG
An Ohio Dominican commit, King is one of the better all-around players in the Cincinnati area. The 6’5 senior finished in the top 5 in the conference in field goal percentage (51.9%) and blocks (1.1 per game) while also finishing in the top 10 in rebounds at 6.1 per game.
Ryan Batte- Oak Hills
2016-17 Stats: 13.4 PPG, 6.2 RPG, 51.5% FG
Ryan put together another outstanding season for the conference champion Highlanders, ranking top 5 in rebounds and top 10 in points and field goal percentage. The 6’5 senior will continue his playing career at Division II Ashland University.
Darius Bazley- Princeton
2016-17 Stats: 10.9 PPG, 10.1 RPG, 3.5 APG
Despite missing half the season due to state transfer rules, Bazley put together one outstanding season. The #2 ranked junior in the state, Darius lead the conference in rebounds, blocks and assist while also being the only player in the conference to average a double-double. The junior is an Ohio State commit.
