  • LO 06302020Cr Athlete of the Year
    2020 celebration of ATHLETES THE REPUBLIC’S BARTHOLOMEW COUNTY ATHLETE OF THE YEAR SPECIAL SECTION Eric Stiles MALE ATHLETE OF THE YEAR BIG-TIME TALENT Stiles led East boys soccer to uncharted territory In describing the talent of one of the state’s top soccer players, former Columbus East coach Brad Barber points to a critical play in the first half of Eric Stiles’ last high school game. I In a scoreless semistate game against top-ranked and even- tual Class 3A state champion Zionsville, Stiles won a ball near midfield against eventual Indiana Player of the Year STORY BY Chris Freeman. Stiles TED SCHULTZ then connected on a pass to Logan Cline, PHOTOS who scored to give the BY MIKE Olympians a 1-0 lead. WOLANIN “Eric had the vision, technical ability and power to drive the ball 40 yards across the field, perfectly placing it in front of Logan Cline,” Barber said. “... I do not believe there is another player in an Indiana high school able to make that play. Eric is one of the few players in the state that can take over a game whenever he wants to.” Stiles did that plenty this season and throughout his high school career, and that has led to his selection as The Republic 2 ATHLETE OF THE YEAR SPECIAL SECTION | CELEBRATION OF ATHLETES 2020 Bartholomew County Male Athlete of the Year. The male and female winners typically are honored at The Republic’s Athlete of the Year Gala, but that was canceled this year because of COVID-19. Stiles led East to a dream season.
