1. Todd Staker-6’3” 1981-1984-started as a Sophomore-guard who could jump out of the gym. Played on two Final Four teams, 82 as a Sophomore and 84 as Senior. Burg made it to the finals in 84 losing to future NBA player Jerome Lane and Akron St. Vincent 75-71. Todd averaged around 30 in the tourney that year.

2. Andrew Burleson-6’6”, 1998-2002- started as a Freshman-could play about anywhere. Sweet shot and good hops. Could handle the ball very well for being 6’6”. I believe he is the all time leading scorer at Burg.

3. Brad Walke-6’1”, 1980-1983-started as a Sophomore. Guard who could shoot from anywhere or take you off the dribble. If three point shot would have be around he would have scored some serious points. Played on the Burg Final Four team of 81-82.

4. Jonathon Eaton-6’1”-1991-1995-started as a Freshman come tourney time helping lead A Burg team, that I believe had a losing record going to the tourney, all the way to the Regional Final. Playmaker who was good at driving to the basket and dishing off or making the shot. Helped lead Burg to the Final Four in 95 where they lost to a strong Orrville team in the state finals. Upset a strong Cols Bishop Hartley team in the semifinals.

5. Cam Miller-6’7”-2004-2007-started as a Sophomore. Good balhandler for his size. Could shoot the three or beat you off the dribble for a thunderous dunk. Helped lead Burg to back to back Final Fours in 2006 and 2007.

I would put Mark Eaton on this list he started some games as a freshman very good player terrific scorer high basketball I.Q

Mark Shaw, '71 - averaged over 20 points and 20 rebounds his senior season and over 20 and 18 as a junior. 2nd all-time leading scorer.

Coy Lindsey, '97 - all-time leading scorer. Great guard who could shoot the lights out.

Kerry York, '86 - had his senior season cut short due to an ankle injury. Was on pace for a 1,000 point career (without playing Varsity as a freshman)

Greg Poston, '68 - school's first 1,000 point scorer. Just a tremendous all-around athlete.

Keith Myers, '86 - teamed up with York for the best two-year run in school history, including a 22-2 season in '85-'86. That team won 21 straight even after York's knee injury and Keith picked up the slack.


This list doesn't include 1,000 point scorers Doug Stiverson ('89) or Patrick Angle ('10).

Others for consideration:
Eddie Joe Grandy ('53)
Gene Morgan ('56)
George Stump ('60)
Jim Pierce ('74?)
Tim Moore ('89)
Eric Burris ('93?)
Kevin Fisher ('14)
Bo Myers ('19)

Anybody else I'm missing, Chieftain fans?

The Eaton kids...are they related to former OHHS coach John Eaton? Coach E was the oaks coach when I was in school.

Hard to argue that one. Maybe would add these ones:

Mike McBroom ('77)
Jack Miller ('85)
Josh Lawrence ('00)

I would definitely throw in Jeff Morgan. Great all around athlete, but basketball was probably his best sport. Pretty sure he played varsity when only a freshman and could really light it up when he got hot. I think he held a record at one time for most points in a game ,but not sure. Knee injuries really hampered his career and if he would have stayed healthy everybody would recognize that name.

Their dad’s name was John Eaton but not sure if he ever coached at OHHS. Maybe same guy.

Full disclosure, my knowledge of Tiger basketball is close to zero from 1980 to 2000.

I don't want to come off as a jerk here, but there's no way Walls is even in the same discussion as Kretzer if it coming down to one spot. I know the Thompson's and Shoemaker were great, don't know about Miller, but if he went to OU, he had to be good.

But, Kretzer completely carried a Tiger team to a District Title his senior year and is easily the all time leading scorer. I know the good argument about the 3 point line, but that kid could score from anywhere. Had a really nice career at Akron as well.

one Oak wrote: ↑Sat Feb 10, 2018 5:45 pm Adrian Hayes did score over 2,000 points and is the leading scorer, but I thought Brisker may have also scored over 2,000. An interesting side note on Hayes is that he scored 30 points against Chauney-Dover in a 1952 game, but Chauncey-Dover football star Hubert "Hubbie" Bobo tied him for high scorer in the Oaks 82-59 win.
