2004-05 Player Profiles

 

#2 Kyle Ganton

6'5/195lb/Forward Sophomore
Coldwater, MI Bronson High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Kyle, an extremely talented offensive player, had a great freshman season. Certainly, we expect him to be vastly improved in all areas, as he’s gotten stronger and more mature. Kyle won’t be able to sneak up on anybody this year so he’ll have to work even harder to stay constantly involved in our offense. He should have a great second season.
 

#3 James Haifley

6'0/196lb/Guard Sophomore
Fort Wayne, IN Homestead High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Nobody works harder than James and as a result of that he has improved as much as anyone on our team. James comes to practice or games ready to give 110%- ALWAYS. His goal is to put himself in a position where he can log important minutes and I believe he’s done that.
 

#5 Jared Yoder

5'11/165lb/Guard Sophomore
Shipshewana, IN Westview High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Jared knows the game and will surprise people with his improvement. I’m confident that Jared will provide quality play at both guard positions. He waited through his freshman year with an injury and is now healthy and eager to get into the guard rotation.
 

#10 Trent Shively

5'10/160lb/Guard Freshman
Columbia City, IN Columbia City High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Trent is a gutsy, hard-nosed player who is used to winning. As he matures and gets stronger, we expect him to back up our guards. Trent is a good open shooter and not afraid to take a big shot. You will know when Trent is in the game.
 

#11 Doug Sheckler

6'6/205lb/Forward Freshman
Columbia City, IN Columbia City High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Doug is a multi-talented player who is able to play inside or out. He has a great understanding of the TEAM game. His athleticism, feel for the game, ability to score, and defensive skill make him an important addition to this year’s team. We expect Doug to have an outstanding career at HC.
 

#21 Adam Bontreger

6'0/175lb/Guard Senior
Topeka, IN Westview High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  From the point guard position, Adam is like a coach on the floor. He really understands what needs to be done for the team. He is a very good defender and is capable of making big shots. Adam will be an important leader on the team this year.
 
 

#23 Jason Rahn

6'4/180lb/Guard Sophomore
Huntington, IN Huntington North High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  
 

#30 Seth Lochmueller

6'1/165lb/Guard Sophomore
Fort Wayne, IN Carroll High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  At either backcourt position, Seth will get the job done. He can run the show from the point with great peripheral vision and is a good decision maker. From the two-guard position he has the ability to pull up and hit jumpers or take the ball to the hole. Seth is always willing to sacrifice his body on the defensive end.
 

#32 Chase Verba

6'6/200lb/Forward Junior
Angola, IN Angola High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Chase is just a down to earth, extremely hard working, talented basketball player. He will probably play some at all five positions this year. Chase is a fierce competitor and leaves everything on the floor every night. Already a two time All-Conference player, Chase is never satisfied and continues to improve his all-around game.
 

#33 Steve Snider

6'7/205lb/Forward Junior
Indianapolis, IN Hamilton Southeastern High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  Steve was much improved last year and he’s even better this year. He continues to get stronger, more aggressive and is even a more complete player daily. Steve is primed to be a dominant player and a real force on both ends.
 

#42 Alex Kock

6'6/210lb/Forward Sophomore
Auburn, IN DeKalb High School
Coach Platt's Comments:  With one year of Division I play under his belt, Alex is more than ready to step up and help lead this team. He is a great outside shooter, can score in the paint, and has a lot of court smarts. Alex will play several different areas on the floor for us and will definitely make his mark at HC.
