Lions win in thriller fashion

The Varsity boys basketball team beat visiting Hughes Wednesday night by a score of 55-53. With the game tied at 53-53 with 5 seconds left, Senior NIck Hill picked the pocket of a Hughes player and sprinted down the floor to attempt the game winning lay-up. However, the defender came and altered the shot just enough for it to fall off the rim. However, with less than one second left, two New Richmond players were sprinting down the floor for New Richmond and Sophomore John Ernst went up and ripped the rebound off the rim. Ernst put in the lay-up with 0.2 seconds left on the clock to win the game. Ernst led the Lions with 13 points and 8 rebounds. Senior Nick Hill had 10 points and 5 assists, Junior Austen Craig had 10 points, Senior Jake Gundler had 9 points. All of the Lions pitched in for the victory. The student section was going crazy the whole night and was definitely our 6th man of the game. The lions get a well deserved break for the Christmas holidays and will be back in action January 3rd @ Mariemont. The next home game will be Friday, January 6th against Bethel Tate. Have a Merry Christmas and enjoy the time with your families.

New Richmond swim coaches honored

A new scoreboard at the New Richmond High School pool was dedicated Dec. 18 in honor of Judy and Joe Middeler who have coached the Lions swimmers for a combined 50 years.

Judy Middeler is in her 36th year as swim team coach while her brother Joe is in his 14th season.

“I think they know how we feel about them,” said New Richmond athletic director Doug Foote.

“I’m not a New Richmond person but there’s something special about this place when you look back and see the Ron Birds (33 years as football coach) and Ron Reids who coach here for 30 years. People stay here forever and ever because of the quality of people they work with. Thank you Middelers, you are the best.“

Former New Richmond swimmers Mark Miller and Alex Lewis spearheaded the fund drive that raised $7500 for the new scoreboard. Among the groups making donations were the New Richmond High School PTO, Girl Scout troup 48026, River Hills Bank and the New Richmond Sports Foundation.

“They are not only great coaches, they’re great people and great mentors,” said Miller. “Granted they may have taught everyone in New Richmond how to swim, but that’s not all of the story. They have been involved with Special Olympics and the Village Food Pantry. They reach out to the community and if someone needs help they will be there to help.”

Lady Lions Over Bethel-Tate

The Varsity Girls Basketball team defeated Bethel Tate last night 59-42 in a game that broke a 1st place tie in the SBAAC-American Division.

Josie Buckingham led the way on offense scoring a career-high 35 points while adding 11 rebounds and 5 blocks. Sophomore Bailey Workman added 13 points and 3 assists. Sarah Shoemaker contributed in many ways while providing key ball handling and contributing 4 assists, 4 blocks, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals. It was a great team effort and all contributed to the effort. Next @ Batavia Monday Dec. 19.

What an electric atmosphere at NRHS Friday afternoon! The Lions did battle with the Glen Este Trojans during an in-school dual. The Lions coming off a tournament win at Roger Bacon and the Trojans coming off a tournament win at Harrison. The expectations were high on both sides of the mat.

Austin Skaggs got the Lions back in the win column with a first period pin. Cody Gabelman followed Austin's lead and pinned his GE opponent.

Corey English was beat in the last six seconds of the match. Kevin Reid took the action to the Trojan wrestler and came away with a pin! Luke Hoskins may have had the match of the day. Luke was down 19-13 with abut a minute left when he threw his opponent to his back and got the pin with only seconds remaining! Ryle Beckerich went the distance but lost by decision. Nathan Dixon gave his best but came up short in the end. JR Forsee received a forfeit. The team score was 36-34 Lions going into the last match. AJ Rostetter had the weight of the world on his shoulders. AJ was working hard and giving his all but fell to the GE opponent. Final score Lions 36 Trojans 40.

Some of you may not have seen the JV action afterwards. Robbie Lemar and Autumn Clark pinned their opponents in the first period. Great job guys!

Next up for the Varsity Lions is the Coaches Classic 12/17 & 12/18 @ Harrison High School. This is the premier tournament in Cincinnati, only the best will survive! The JV travels to Bethel 12/17 for the Bethel Invitational. WE ARE NR!

New Richmond High School has added a second event on Dec. 18 to benefit the ‘Nate Kramer Medical Fund’. Kramer, a 2007 graduate and record-holding swimmer, was diagnosed with Leukemia last June following the completion of his collegiate swimming career at the University of Cincinnati.


After being cut from basketball in middle school, Kramer switched to swimming and went on to set school records in the 200-meter and 500-meter freestyles, the 200 Individual Medley and the 100-meter backstroke and won a scholarship to swim for UC.

The first benefit will be held at the high school pool after school on Nov. 22 featuring the high school swimming team joining the University of Cincinnati swim team in holding a “Ted Mullin Hour of Power” cancer awareness swim relay from 3 to 4 p.m. The swim relay is open to the public which is encouraged to make a donation to the fund.

“The Nov. 22 event will only be open to NR swimmers, not the general public,” said event organizer Sue Griffin. “We're saving the public swim until our ‘Fight for Nate’ benefit on Dec. 18.”

The Dec. 18 event will be held from 1 to 5 p.m. and New Richmond High School and will include:

Zumba-thon in the school gym; $5 per hour of Zumba
Swim-a-thon in the school pool; $5 per hour open swim
Bake sale in school lobby. Small baked goods as well as whole cakes and goodie baskets perfect for the holiday season. Prices range from $.50-$30.
Music Video festival in the school theatre from 4-5p.m. Students in the Poetry in Rock Music and TV production classes made music videos and we picked the best ones to show. $5 admission
Vendors in the school cafeteria, including Avon, Mary Kay, Silpada, Pampered Chef, Longaberger baskets, New Richmond Alpaca Farm, and many other local crafters and artisans. All vendors are donating at least 15% of their sales to Nate’s family. The perfect opportunity for those last-minute shoppers!
Pictures with Santa in the cafeteria; we’ll have Santa available for photos with kids of all ages. Cost is expected to be $5-10. We will also have two Newfoundland dogs dressed up for Christmas who will also be available for photos.
Raffle/silent auction. Many, many great items have been donated that would make great Christmas gifts for others or yourself.
Hoxworth Blood Drive in the school library. Anyone able and willing to donate blood may participate.
Swim caps for sale ($5) with the event logo.
T-shirts for sale ($10) with the event logo.

“Donations to the Nate Kramer Medical Fund can be made at any US Bank branch or sent directly to the Kramer family at 3620 Highland Green, Cincinnati, Ohio 45245,” said Griffin.

NRHS teacher Logan Minning is organizing the bake sale and is requesting donations of treats and bake goods. She can be contacted at minning_l@nrschools.org.

Boys soccer advances in tournament play

The boys defeated CNE last night in sectional tournament play by the score of 2-1. New Richmond started out strong with numerous shots on goal that did not find the back of the net. After a scoreless un-eventful first half the second half would not be the same. After an altercation that resulted in a CNE player to be ejected, CNE score the games first goal off of a re-start. The Lions found themselves down 1-0 with just less then 20:00 left to play and the bad weather moved in delaying the game. At 8:10 the officials gave the go ahead to take the field. After making some adjustments the boys came out ready to play. Sam Lefler scored the equalizer and Tyler Loyd scored the go ahead goal and secured the victory. The Lions face McNicholas Saturday at 3:00.
