Asked to rate the start of Wednesday night's Division I regional semifinal on a 1-to-10 scale, Olentangy Orange boys basketball coach Anthony Calo flashed a wide smile after a 64-38 rout of Newark. 'You can never give it a 10, but it was pretty darn good,' Calo cracked. Taking full advantage of their athleticism and size advantage against Newark, Orange raced to leads of 8-0 and 16-2 within the first five minutes, held the Wildcats to only seven shots in the first quarter and generally stymied anything Newark wanted to establish.
