  • APRIL, 2011 BCAM MONTHLY REPORT from the Executive Director Tom Hursey
    APRIL, 2011 BCAM MONTHLY REPORT From the Executive Director Tom Hursey FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: I have just attended the Michigan State finals. What a weekend for basketball junkies. Twelve ball games in 3 days. Big crowds in the Breslin Center. A very successful BCAM Hospitality Room in the MSU Women’s practice gym with over 500 BCAM members, officials and guests in attendance. Two successful half-time events called the Top Shooters Challenge where our top free throw and 3-point shooters shoot-off for the title of champion. My BCAM hat goes off to Nate Hampton and the MHSAA tourney committee for their first-class production of the Girls and Boys State Basketball Championships. BCAM and the MHSAA have been working together for years with the goal of improving high school basketball in Michigan. The cost of the Hospitality Room is split with the MHSAA (not inexpensive). We work together to present the Legends Clinic to youngsters at Hoopfest along with organizing the Top Shooters Challenge. The MHSAA and BCAM have worked hard at improving sportsmanship through our Basketball Officials and Coaches Communication Committee (BOCCC) and our inaugural Top 100 Sportsmanship Award sponsored by the Michigan National Guard. The Reaching Higher Showcase is another joint venture between BCAM and the MHSAA. BCAM might be the only basketball association in the country that has such a great working relationship with their state athletic association. I can’t emphasize enough the importance o f our great sponsors. How can BCAM offer our popular School Special membership incentive? Simple: our sponsors allow this to happen and save coaches and schools a lot of money.

  • Large Impact Basins on Mercury: Global Distribution, Characteristics, and Modification History from MESSENGER Orbital Data Caleb I
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 117, E00L08, doi:10.1029/2012JE004154, 2012 Large impact basins on Mercury: Global distribution, characteristics, and modification history from MESSENGER orbital data Caleb I. Fassett,1 James W. Head,2 David M. H. Baker,2 Maria T. Zuber,3 David E. Smith,3,4 Gregory A. Neumann,4 Sean C. Solomon,5,6 Christian Klimczak,5 Robert G. Strom,7 Clark R. Chapman,8 Louise M. Prockter,9 Roger J. Phillips,8 Jürgen Oberst,10 and Frank Preusker10 Received 6 June 2012; revised 31 August 2012; accepted 5 September 2012; published 27 October 2012. [1] The formation of large impact basins (diameter D ≥ 300 km) was an important process in the early geological evolution of Mercury and influenced the planet’s topography, stratigraphy, and crustal structure. We catalog and characterize this basin population on Mercury from global observations by the MESSENGER spacecraft, and we use the new data to evaluate basins suggested on the basis of the Mariner 10 flybys. Forty-six certain or probable impact basins are recognized; a few additional basins that may have been degraded to the point of ambiguity are plausible on the basis of new data but are classified as uncertain. The spatial density of large basins (D ≥ 500 km) on Mercury is lower than that on the Moon. Morphological characteristics of basins on Mercury suggest that on average they are more degraded than lunar basins. These observations are consistent with more efficient modification, degradation, and obliteration of the largest basins on Mercury than on the Moon. This distinction may be a result of differences in the basin formation process (producing fewer rings), relaxation of topography after basin formation (subduing relief), or rates of volcanism (burying basin rings and interiors) during the period of heavy bombardment on Mercury from those on the Moon.

  • 2019 - with the Completion of the 2018-19 Prep Basketball Season, the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan Proudly Wraps up Their Decade-Long “Retro” Mr
    100 YEARS OF MR. BASKETBALL BCAM Announces 10th and Final Round of “Retro” Mr. Basketball Winners. EAST LANSING, MI, April 1, 2019 - With the completion of the 2018-19 prep basketball season, the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan proudly wraps up their decade-long “Retro” Mr. Basketball project with the announcement of their final six honorees. Over the course of ten seasons, the project has examined the high school court careers of hundreds of the state’s finest. The list of 61 honorees, when combined with the winners of the current ‘Mr. Basketball’ award, first presented following the 1980-81 prep season, totals 100. A contiguous list of Michigan’s ‘Best of the Best’ now dates back to 1920. Noting the amazing pool of talented basketball players produced by the state over the years, past Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan Executive Director Tom Hursey and Michigan High School Athletic Association historian Ron Pesch hatched a plan to replicate the ‘Mr. Basketball’ concept, and apply it to the past. The goal was to name the top high school senior ballplayer for each of the 61 years between 1920 and 1980. To do so, Pesch hit the archives, examined the data, gathered names and assembled biographies, then provided a ballot. BCAM assembled a committee representing all parts of Michigan to examine the information, narrow the field to the best-of-the-best, and then vote for a winner. “All along, the idea was to focus solely on the high school playing careers of these individuals, just like the current award,” said Hursey.
