Greyhounds face familiar opponent in Ben Davis

By RICHIE HALL The destination is a familiar one for the Carmel boys basketball team: The Class 4A state championship game. For the second consecutive year, the Greyhounds will play in the biggest game of all. No. 1-ranked Carmel will play its old Metropolitan Conference rival Ben Davis for the 4A title, which tips off around 8:15 p.m. Saturday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The 'Hounds and the Giants have been playing each other every year for decades, even prior to the start of the MIC, which formed in 1996. In this year's regular- season game, played on Jan. 25, Carmel beat Ben Davis 49-39. The Greyhounds went on to win an undefeated conference championship. The Giants finished tied for sixth in the MIC with a 2-5 record. After a loss to Lawrence North on Feb. 8, Ben Davis was 12-7 for the season. But the Giants caught fire at the right time, and are on an eight- game win streak that has propelled them into the state title game for the second time in three years. Ben Davis beat Fort Wayne North Side 55-52 to win the 4A state championship in 2017. "Ben Davis is a very talented basketball team that returns key pieces from last season," said Carmel coach Ryan Osborn. "They are well coached, physical and do a great job playing to their strengths." Under first-year coach Don Carlisle, the Giants began their run with a win at the Perry Meridian sectional. Ben Davis toughed out a 52-50 win over Pike in the semi-finals, then took care of Decatur Central 69-51 in the championship game. At the Southport regional, the Giants upset No. 2 Lawrence Central 75-65 in the semi-final game, and followed that with a 53-47 championship win over New Pales- tine. That sent Ben Davis to the Washing- ton semi-state, and the Giants defeated Center Grove 67-61 to punch a ticket to Kent Graham/File photo Carmel’s Andrew Owens is averaging 11.8 points and 3.9 rebounds per game this season. The Greyhounds will take on Ben Davis Saturday night for the Class 4A state championship. Carmel's first state title true Hoosier hysteria

Fast forward to the present. Little or none of that hoopla this year. Times have changed probably in part because Carmel, now the state's largest high school, has won so many championships in so many sports that winning is no surprise. But, basketball still holds a special place in Hoosier lore and on Saturday it's still a contest for best in Indiana.
