TCA and San Antonio Central Catholic will face off at McLennan Community College at 11:00 AM on the morning of this Friday, February 17th. But I just don't want to end up with nothing if it doesn't work out." "I know the coaches there really want me and are pulling for me - after all, they're going to the president for help. "I mean, I really want everything to work out with Air Force," he continued. "Air Force is still an option too, but I've already been waiting two months to hear back (on an appeal), so I wanted to open things back up." "Right now, I'm completely open to anything - even prep school," Fenske said. Schools such as Liberty, The Citadel, VMI, and Boston University all offered Fenske in the fall, and they could be some of the first to receive a call from him. Over the next couple of weeks, Fenske and Randy Feemster, his high school coach, will start getting in touch with schools to let them know that he's available. "But it's not looking good right now, so I've decided to re-open my recruitment." "The (AFA) coaches were kind of upset about it, and they're trying to get a final review for it - they're even putting it in front of the president," he continued. But I've never used an inhaler or ever had any breathing problems." "But it turns out that from some allergy shots I took when I was in the sixth or seventh grade, when I took a breathing test the doctor said I had allergy-induced asthma and the Academy said that I couldn't grow out of it. "I thought that everything from what I understood was cleared - my paperwork, my physical, and my grades," Fenske said. Unfortunately, a recent situation arose where now his appointment is in jeopardy. He had committed to the Air Force Academy in October, and had done everything on his end to make things final. The post-season has helped Fenske get away from an unfortunate situation in his recruitment. I played against him this past summer - he's a great player."
I'll also try to get him in foul trouble because he tries to block shots. "He's an athletic block player, so I'll try to take him away from the basket to open up some lanes for our guards. "We're different kind of players, but I'm going to guard him," Fenske said. In that contest, Fenske will find himself going up against one of the top players in the state in the Class of 2007, Alexis Wangmene. Pius X of Houston has brought them to a Friday night showdown against Central Catholic of San Antonio. I'm scoring inside and outside, and from just about everywhere - in the post, high post, on the wing, and on the break." I think I've had a pretty good year too, probably in every aspect.
We won our play-in game and our first round playoff game pretty good.
"We had our ups and downs since we are a young team, but we're getting it going at just the right time. "Our team is playing really well - we're playing our best basketball of the year," Fenske said.
But while he's hoping to get that resolved, he's also honing in on helping the Trojans continue their TAPPS playoff run. While the year on the court has gone well, unfortunately certain things have recently happened where Fenske's college future is now wide open. The solid 6-foot-8, 205-pound power forward from Trinity Christian Academy in Addison was all set on going to the Air Force Academy, and was all relaxed and prepared to have a great senior season. In the fall, Bobby Fenske thought he had everything in place as far as college was concerned.
