High School Notebook
EA Sports invites Indiana QB
By Pat McKee
pat.mckee@indystar.com
MarQueis Gray of Ben Davis is one of 12 players from across the nation who have been invited to the 2007 EA Sports Elite 11 quarterback "campetition," organizers from Student Sports magazine announced Tuesday.A combination camp and competition, the event will be July 23-26 at Aliso Viejo, Calif., and is designed to give a group of the nation's top high school quarterbacks direction from some of top players at higher levels.
Giants coach Mike Kirschner said Gray will decline the invitation because an Indiana High School Athletic Association rule does not allow fall sport athletes to attend camps the week of July 22-28.
A 6-4, 205-pounder, Gray completed 73-of-140 passes for 1,113 yards and 12 touchdowns as a junior despite missing two games with an injury in a 9-4 season. The dual threat also rushed for 603 yards and seven touchdowns.
"It makes me feel good to know that I was invited," said Gray, who joins former Ben Davis star James Banks and ex-McCutcheon standout Clayton Richard as Indiana invitees to the ninth annual event. Banks also could not attend because of the date conflict.
Gray remains undecided about his college choice, but he said his top choices at this time are Michigan State, Minnesota and Oregon.

From the Minny site...Gray talks about why he likes each of his top 3 (Oregon, Minnesota and Michigan State). No timetable for a decision.

Giants rally on Falcons | IndyStar.com
Quote:
By Paul Shepherd
Star correspondent
The Ben Davis football team got little consistency on offense and defense in Friday's season opener at Perry Meridian.
Fortunately for the Giants, their return game and a few big plays were enough to overcome their struggles, as they rallied from a big deficit to pull out a wild 46-37 win.
The Giants got two huge second-half returns to get back into the game and assume control. Senior LaVarus Williams gave the Giants a 32-31 lead with his 62-yard punt return for a touchdown with 2:20 left in the third quarter.

Ben Davis also had some discipline-related issues; Kirschner benched senior quarterback MarQueis Gray for the opening series.

Aggressive Giants play big, fall short | IndyStar.com
Quote:
Penn 15, Ben Davis 7, OT
By Jeff Carroll
Star correspondent
MISHAWAKA, Ind. -- Already down two marquee players and facing his biggest decision at Ben Davis, first-year Giants coach Mike Kirschner sent a resounding message Friday about the kind of coach he will be.
One who goes for it.
The aggressiveness doesn't always work out.
The Class 5A No. 3-ranked Giants fell 15-7 to No. 5 Penn in overtime, Ben Davis' first loss in six games at Penn's Freed Field. The Giants fell short on a key fourth-down conversion attempt late in the fourth quarter to set up the overtime, one of several Ben Davis drives that stalled deep in Penn territory.
"We did everything we had to do," Kirschner said. "We just didn't score the points we needed to to win the game."
The key play for the Giants (1-1) came not in the overtime period, when backup quarterback Greg Rice's last-chance pass was broken up in the end zone, but minutes earlier. With the score tied 7-7, Ben Davis had driven deep into Penn territory, mostly on the strength of quarterback MarQueis Gray's legs.
