Class A top-ranked Oregon-Davis won its first state championship in boys basketball beating Barr-Reeve, 63-52, and capping off a 27-1 season at Conseco Fieldhouse. Three weeks ago, Oregon-Davis had zero state titles in school history. But that’s all changed as the Bobcats now lay claim to both the boys and girls championship trophies, the first time a school has won both in the same year. The Bobcats jumped out to a 30-19 lead at halftime and never looked back. They allowed the Vikings to score only seven points in the first quarter and 19 in the first-half. Oregon-Davis shot 52 percent from the field in the first half to Barr-Reeves’ 29 percent. Barr-Reeve outscored Oregon-Davis 17-14 in the third quarter taking a 44-36 lead into the final eight minutes. Oregon-Davis senior Justin Egger had 19 points on 10 of 10 from the line to go along with his nine rebounds. Senior Nathan Ferch scored 18 points and shot 3 for 6 from behind the 3-point arc. Barr-Reeve was led in scoring by sophomore guard Ethan Knepp’s 19 point effort. Knepp shot 7 for 13 from the field. Nicholas Duncheon added 12 points and Josh Pielemeier 11. Going from 46 straight losses in the early part of the decade, to a state title, Oregon-Davis’ fifth year Head Coach Travis Hannah is credited with turning around the program. Oregon-Davis returned all five starters from last year’s squad that fell a game short in the semi-state. Barr-Reeve was making its second appearance in the state finals having also finished as runners-up in the 2002 Class A championship game. The Vikings were coached by 15th year Head Coach Bryan Hughes. Barr-Reeve finishes its season with a 23-4 record. Following the game, members of the IHSAA Executive Committee named Adam Pflugshaupt of Oregon-Davis High School as the winner of the Arthur L. Trester Mental Attitude Award.
