Columbus East High School

Please plan to attend Saturday, January 17th, 2026 as we honor a special chapter in Olympian basketball history. Join us as we recognize the 1995–96 Columbus East Boys Basketball Team, the squad that battled their way to an IHSAA Sectional Championship all the way back on March 2nd, 1996 - 30 years ago! We’ll celebrate this championship team along with a great night of basketball with a Hoosier Hills Conference showdown as the Olympians take on the Seymour Owls. JV start time 6 p.m., with the varsity game to follow. More info on the night will be shared at a later date. Let’s fill the gym, show our appreciation, and remind these alumni that their legacy still matters. Go East! CEHS 1995-96 Team members: Front row: Manager Ben Rottinghaus, Kurt Williams, Scott Perez, Marcus Hunter, Jason Cox, Phil Mize, and manager Tom Svetlick. 2nd Row: Coach Ty Platt, Nic Kirts, Jason Campbell, Alan Thompson, Ricky Roberts, and Coach Marty Beasley.
