The Bearcats open the 2010-2011 cage season at home on Dec. 3 with a non-conference game against South Callaway. Their next four games will be on the road. Hermann's first conference game is at St. Clair on Tuesday, Dec.14.
Tim Wenkel, starting his fourth season as Hermann's head coach, returns three starters from a team that finished 20-9 a year ago and won the district title for the first time in 31 years. Gone from last year's team are Jake Witthaus, Greg Wright, Sidney Daller and Austin VanBooven.
The Bearcats lost to Ava, 53-48, in the Class 3 sectional at Rolla after leading in that game most of the way.
Jake Schannuth, a 6-5 junior who averaged 13 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists last year, is the top scorer returning to the squad. Phil Wright, a 6-foot senior guard, and Ethan Kirchhofer, a 5-10 junior guard, are the other returning starters. Wright had a 4.5 scoring average a year ago whole Kirchhofer averaged 2.0 points a game.
Moving up from the junior varsity are Zach Hackmann, 6-foot junior guard; Jonathan Baumstark, 6-1 sophomore; and Jackson Logan, a 6-6 junior.
Other newcomers on the varsity this season will be Nick Koenig, a 6-2 junior; and Craig Winkelmann, a 5-9 freshman.
The Bearcats will have a busy January, as all three of their tournaments will be played that month.
For the first time in 36 years, Hermann won't be in the Mongomery County Invitational. The Bearcats have pulled out of that tournament and are going back to the Owensville Invitational, which they left in 1973 to enter the Montgomery tourney.
The Owensville Tournament is Jan. 3-8; the South Callaway Tournament is Jan. 10-15; and the annual Hermann Tournament is Jan. 25-29.
