CHAMPIONS!! How Good Does That Sound? WEST ADELAIDE BEARCATS NEWSLETTER - OCTOBER 2007 CHAMPIONS!! How good does that sound? A season that began with the slog of pre-season training, lasted through 18 home and away games and ended with the ultimate prize – the CABL premiership! What a ride. After losing their fi rst two games the girls won their next 6 to be 2nd mid-season. The regular season fi nished with a 12-4 record and 2nd place - consistent even though several players missed games throughout the season. Whoever took the court did their job, showing the Bearcat spirit and emphasizing that this is a champion team, not a team of champions. The qualifying fi nal against Norwood was a tight game ending with a 9 point victory. Bring on Sturt! A run-away 83-69 victory against Sturt put the girls straight into the grand fi nal. A surprise to most was that Norwood defeated Sturt in a close game for the chance to challenge our girls in the grand fi nal. The support from the junior members of the club for the team on Grand Final Night was absolutely fabulous!! And the team didn’t let them down, outclassing Norwood, 77-57. All 12 players hit the court to get a feel of the atmosphere on the biggest basketball stage in our local competition. Thoughts were with Lauren King who had considered giving up her place at the World University Games so she wouldn’t miss the grand fi nal. She won a gold medal there. Also with Cherie Smith who was injured and unable to take her place in the team. West Adelaide Bearcats last won the title in 1993 so congratulations go to this group of young women and their coaching staff who have written another chapter in the tradition that is the West Adelaide Bearcats Basketball Club. The girls found the ABA fi nal against Ballarat tough, going down 59-70, but once again it was a great experience for the younger players to compete in the next level of competition. So a great season for our CABL teams ended with the women as CHAMPIONS and the Men’s team semi- fi nalists. Both teams are full of young talent so we look forward to another great year in 2008 when Sam Woosnam and David Spear take over as head coaches.

In the United States, Shawn received the Nebraska Player of the Year Award in 1998/99 after a stunning senior year with Nebraska State High School. After high school, Shawn began studying and playing for Arizona State University and helped lead the team to their 4th NCAA tournament appearance in the last 30 years and graduated with honors in Construction Management.

He was instrumental in SEABL’s championship and was awarded MVP (Most Valuable Player) honours in the League and Club. He began his NBL career in September 2004 with the New Zealand Breakers but was released mid-season after playing only 13 games, when the Breakers decided to sign veteran import Marcus Timmons.
