#20 Crews for Conner lit it up. Not sure of his point total but seemed like he scored 30. St. Henry had no one to match his quickness.

Not sure of the scoring totals for St. Henry, seemed like a well balanced night for them with I think all 9 who played scoring. They were probably led by Rechtin with about 12 points.

St. Henry hung on to win, but made a close game out of what should have been a double digit win by missing 8 of 10 free throws down the stretch. Brandon Lenhof led St. Henry with 21 points, Ben Kolkmeier added 17. Travis Huffman had about 16 for Conner.

Good start to District play for the Crusaders.

"Insiders close to the St. Henry basketball program said that Kadetz needed to improve either his work ethic and/or defensive skills. Three calls to varsity coach Dave Faust were not returned. A call to Athletic Director Dennis Daugherty also was not returned.

 

Zane's father, David Kadetz, told me that there are no grade or disciplinary reasons for Zane not making the team.

 

What makes the entire situation even cloudier, St. Henry principal Dave Otte has his two sons playing basketball for the school.

 

Mark, a sophomore, is on the jayvee unit, and senior Mike plays on the varsity. Checking the freshman stats of a year ago, Mark Otte played no more than three minutes per game.

 

Can you spell nepotism?"

 

The rest of the story.

Can you spell low class journalism?

As a long time friend of both the Faust and Otte families, and as a parent whose children have attended St. Henry, I truelly hoped this article would not be discussed on Bluegrass Preps. If there isn't currently there ought to be a rule against posting links to articles on here that mention kids by name and are negative towards them when they have no true control over the situation the article involves.

As a parent what are you teaching your child when you take this story public after your battles with the school administration do not achieve the desired results? What reason could there possibly be for writing this article, and for mentioning the names of the Otte boys, besides trying to publicly humiliate them? Two very fine families are having their names dragged thru the mud because a kid got cut from a basketball team? You've got to be kidding! We're not exactly rolling in money at St. Henry, but I think if they really wanted Zane on the team they could have come up with another uniform.

Mr and Mrs Kadetz, I feel sorry for you and for Zane because of what you are doing. Zane I hope you have a cast iron set and will get thru this without losing the trust of your friends. Faust and Otte families hang in there, those of us who truelly love St. Henry and are proud to say we are part of the Crusader family will support you 100%.

Guru please cancel my subscription to BGP, I've had enough of the negativity found thru out this website and this will be my last post.

Go Crusaders!!!
