LINDSEY MAYLE
Star Beacon


LINDSEY MAYLE, who will enter the sixth grade at Austinburg Elementary in August, won not only the Ohio Junior Olympic basketball-shooting skills state championship for 10- and 11-year-olds, but also the East Coast Championship. The daughter of Tim and Debbie Mayle will fly to California on July 23 to compete for the national title at the Junior Olympic National Skills Competition at the Arco Arena Olympic Training Facility in Chula Vista.

Super shooter

Lindsey Mayle, aka Shay's little sis, is showing she's got plenty of game, too

When she’s home, Mayle isn’t far from a basketball court. There’s one in the backyard. And she gets help from Selby.

“Shay helps me train at the Y and at Perry,” Mayle said. “She tells me to keep practicing if I want to get better. She tells me to never give up. She says if I keep working hard, good things will follow.”

Lindsey and Tim Mayle fly to San Diego on July 23 and return three days later.

“Tim is going with Lindsey,” Debbie Mayle said. “He has worked so hard to help her get ready and help her train. His reward is to get to see Lindsey perform.”

While they’re in California, the important business is Lindsey’s pursuit of the national championship. She has set a lofty goal.

“I want the gold medal,” she said. “I’m nervous. But I’m confident, too, because I’ve worked hard, and I know I should be able to pull it off. And everyone is so supportive – my mom and dad, Shay. Everybody is giving me encouragement.”

While there, Lindsey and the other competitors in basketball and other sports will visit the San Diego Zoo and go to Dave & Buster’s.

“You get to play a bunch of games and eat at Dave & Buster’s,” she said.

That all this was made possible by a game she loves isn’t lost on Lindsey.

“To be able to get out and play with a bunch of people everyday is a lot fun,” Mayle said. “And basketball has a lot of rewards. If you’re good enough, you can get a good deal at a nice college.”

Harris is a freelance writer from Ashtabula Township.
