The Page Age
Season Tabs
In season 31 Demetrius Page a nationally unknown kid, Demetrius Page, was drafted out of the small school, St. Paul Technical University by the Charlotte Hornets with the 36th overall pick of the SimBA draft. Page was a 6'8" versatile wing out of Edwardsville High School in southern Illinois who scored 24.6 ppg on 60% shooting while pulling down 6.6 rpg. Those kind of numbers suggested a bright future, but many of the bigger programs were worried about his maturity and defensive efforts. Brand new coach, Mateusz12 took a chance on him and it paid off with a verbal commitment just 3 weeks into the season. He knew he had a gem, but because Page never stood out nationally, having been on a DTT team for four seasons. He went on to win conference freshmen of the year and be selected to four consecutive all conference 1st teams before being drafted. He scored 1882 points in his career (19.6 per game) with 469 rebounds (4.9 per game), and 141 assists (1.5 per game) in his college career, but what every household in America will remember him for is his three point range and supernatural ability to hit prime time shots. Page finished his career at St. Paul with 287 three pointers made: good for 7th all time. With the Charlotte Hornets, the kid from the small technical school and unknown conference broke the all time SimBA three point record, winning six championships, and was eventually elected into the hall of fame in season 57. Page made a 20 million dollar donation to conference 14 following his induction to the hall of fame with the intention of giving the historically poor conference the finances they needed to hire young coaches with elite potential and a thirst for the deep ball. Within two weeks of the donation St. Cloud (qbake11), St. Paul (timwhelan), Rockford (samwhelan), and Springfield (rpainter) hired new youthful coaches. The big splash briefly followed with the University of Cleveland hiring Coach Berthel to a long term contract and announcing the construction of a new gym in hopes of ending the curse on Cleveland sports.
(S58 tab) The St. Paul Minions were the class of conference 14 at the start of the Page Age (named for the excellent basketball Demetrius Page sparked in the conference with his donation). They were led by the twin towers, 7'1" Juan Runner, and 7'3" Lance Parks. In Coach Timwhelan's first season his massive front court led the newly named St. Paul Adue Dogs to a 13-0 conference season and national attention with a top associated press ranking of #16 in the country.
