South Gallia senior Cory Haner, seated second from left, will be continuing his basketball career at Ohio Christian University after signing a letter of intent on April 16 at the SGHS library. Haner — a 6-2 combo guard — earned First Team honors in both the TVC Hocking Division and at the Division IV district level, as well as a spot on the All-Ohio special mention list. Haner, who also lettered multiple times in football and baseball, was the leading scorer (15.0 ppg) for the Rebels — who finished the season as a D-4 district runner-up. Sitting with Cory, from left, are OCU Coach Batten, SGHS coach Donnie Saunders and head OCU coach Tony Stockman. Standing in back are Cory’s parents, Mark and Hollie Haner, as well as SGHS assistant coach Larry Howell. Cory’s father, Mark, also played baseball at OCU in Circleville from 1999 until 2003.
