Beachwood boys basketball coach Jason Pecjak announced his resignation Friday after six seasons.

BEACHWOOD, Ohio - Jason Pecjak, whose Beachwood boys basketball team recently completed the best season in school history despite a late-season controversy stemming from a social media incident, has resigned to pursue a career in the business world.

Beachwood compiled a 82-52 record in Pecjak's six seasons, capped by a 23-4 finish this year in which the Bison advanced to the Division III regional championship game for the first time in school history.

The 23 victories were the most in school history.

Pecjak, 32, served a two-game suspension for exchanging a social media message with a student but said his resignation was not tied to that.

"I am not tenured," said Pecjak, a physical education teacher in the district. "The future is a little uncertain in that regard so I felt it was time to pursue a profession outside education. This is something that I have been thinking about for the last two or three years and I felt it was time to pursue it. I am stepping down on my own terms."

Pecjak, a graduate of Villa Angela-St. Joseph and John Carroll, did not rule out a return to coaching.

"If the right situation comes I would consider it," he said. "I love the game and I can see myself being involved at some level in the future. I am very proud of what we accomplished at Beachwood. We worked very hard to get the program on the right track and it is being left in a position to take the next step to championship-level status. We experienced a historic season for the school and the community, which I will always cherish."

Baseball

Cassidy Brown, Walsh Jesuit: The All-Ohio catcher and right-handed pitcher has signed a National Letter of Intent with Loyola Marymount in Los Angeles.

Also had five saves as the closer.

Brad Cisar, Solon: The versatile senior -- he can play either corner spot in the infield and pitches -- is about to sign with Miami University. Cisar, son of Solon assistant coach Brad Cisar, batted .397 with five doubles and 17 RBI in 2012, while striking out 23 in 15 2/3 innings.

Eric Lauer, Midview: Originally committed to Ohio State but changed his mind and will attend Kent State. The 6-4, 195-pound left-handed pitcher/outfielder was 5-2 with two saves, a 1.13 ERA and 103 strikeouts in 49 2/3 innings. He also batted .370 with five home runs and 27 RBI.

Cleveland Cavaliers coach Byron Scott wants his team to focus on what went right instead of what went wrong in the last matchup with the Boston Celtics, a 93-92 loss at The Q on March 27.

BOSTON, Massachusetts - Cavaliers coach Byron Scott is trying a little reverse psychology on his team before tonight's rematch with the Boston Celtics at TD Garden.

Instead of focusing on Jeff Green's game-winning finger roll at the buzzer or the fact that the Cavs lost a 14-point lead in the final 8:08 of the 93-92 loss on March 27 at The Q, Scott decided to focus on what went right in that game and how the Cavs got the lead.

"What we did today is replay the things that we did really well on both ends of the floor, give them some positive reinforcements that we know we can play with them if we come out with that type of attitude on both ends of the floor,'' Scott said before the team's shootaround here. "We showed some great clips this morning of us moving the ball and getting up and down the floor. Those are things that we know we can do and we have to do them again tonight.''

If that approach doesn't work, and Scott senses any lack of effort or energy at the start of the game, which was the problem in Wednesday's loss to Brooklyn, he will make changes immediately in an effort to snap the team's season-high 10-game losing streak.

"I think the first few minutes is going to show us if we're ready to play or not, and I'm going to take my cue from those first two or three minutes,'' Scott said. "If they're not ready [I'll] make changes. If they are ready, let's roll with it.

"We don't have the luxury of having a team where we can say, 'Let's wait and see how Boston's going to play tonight and then we're going to play accordingly.' We've got to come out with an aggressive mindset. If anything, we've got to initiate how the game is going to be played on both ends of the floor. When we do that, we're pretty much engaged, and we can pretty much play with anybody. It's a matter of being consistent on a night-to-night basis."

Four games into the season, the Indians have spent a lot of time adjusting their starting rotation. The latest twist has Trevor Bauer making a spot start Saturday night and Carlos Carrasco replacing him Tuesday.

View full size Why all the pre-game emotion? Former Indians outfielder Shelley Duncan greeted his old teammates during batting practice late Friday afternoon at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla. Chris Zuppa, Tampa Bay Times  

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The Indians played only their fourth game of the season Friday night, but their starting rotation has been flipped more times than a pancake on the morning-rush griddle at your neighborhood Waffle House.

The rotation started vibrating when No.5 starter Scott Kazmir strained his right rib cage Monday and it was still percolating Friday, when Trevor Bauer joined the team from Class AAA Columbus to start against the Rays on Saturday night. It's probably a one-and-done for Bauer, because manager Terry Francona said Carlos Carrasco will start Tuesday against the Yankees at Progressive Field.

Carrasco opened the season on the 25-man roster, but he won't be eligible to pitch until after Sunday's game against the Rays, when his six-game suspension from 2011 will be completed.

Here's what the rotation looks starting with Saturday: Bauer, Justin Masterson on Sunday, Ubaldo Jimenez on Monday in the home opener, Carrasco on Tuesday, Brett Myers on Wednesday and Zach McAllister on Thursday.

The addition of Carrasco gives an extra day's rest to Myers and McAllister and keeps Masterson and Jimenez on their regular turn. The Indians opened the season playing 13 straight days.

Bauer did not seem concerned if Saturday was merely a spot start.

"It's the same as always, you handle the day you're living in and then handle the next day when it comes," he said. Bauer made four starts with Arizona last year, but Saturday will be his American League debut. Don't expect him to do hand springs.

"When I made my big-league debut, it was just a baseball game that happened to be in the big leagues," said Bauer. "It wasn't the meteoric event you'd think it would be.

"I don't get too pumped up about anything. This is pretty much the same. It's just another baseball game. Something I've been doing my whole life."

The Indians, who haven't officially put Kazmir on the disabled list, will do so Saturday. Bauer was supposed to start Thursday when Columbus opened its season. He threw a bullpen session instead. Francona said Bauer will stay until DH Jason Giambi is ready. Giambi, sidelined with a back injury, can be activated Tuesday.

Carrasco, while serving his suspension, has been working out at Columbus. Francona said he should be able to join the team Sunday.

"We'll get him in here, have him throw a side session and he'll be ready for Tuesday," said Francona. "He threw a simulated game and he's ready to go."

Talks stopped: Negotiations with second baseman Jason Kipnis on a multiyear deal have ceased.

"Once the regular season started, the negotiations stopped," said Kipnis before Friday's game. "We didn't want the distraction during the season. I think they felt the same way."

Kipnis is starting his second full season in the big leagues. He'll make $509,400 this year. Asked if he'd like to continue the negotiations at the end of the 2013 season, Kipnis said, "Of course."

Kipnis probably won't be eligible for salary arbitration until after the 2014 season.

The Indians were also reportedly negotiating with left fielder Michael Brantley on a multiyear deal. There is no word on their status. Brantley will make $526,900 this year and is eligible for arbitration at the end of the season.

Not this time: Francona was contemplating playing Nick Swisher in right field this weekend against the Rays after DHing him Thursday night in Toronto, but decided against it. He did say that everyone on the roster should get in a game by the end of this weekend. Mike Aviles appeared in his first game Friday, starting at third against lefty Matt Moore.

Francona added that Lou Marson will catch Saturday night. Asked if Carlos Santana would stay in the lineup at DH or first base, Francona laughed and said, "I don't need to tell Joe Maddon 24 hours in advance what I'm going to do."

Indians manager says Carlos Santana ran "as hard as he could" during key at-bat in Toronto.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Odds and ends as the Indians and Rays began their three-game series.

Clubhouse confidential: It was mentioned on some Cleveland TV newscasts after the Tribe's 10-8 loss to Toronto on Thursday that catcher Carlos Santana wasn't running at max speed when second baseman Emilio Bonifacio made a great stop and throw to get him at first base to end the eighth inning with the bases loaded.

"I think the farther away you get from the game, it looks a little easier," said manager Terry Francona. "I thought he was going about as hard as he could. You have to remember, he'd been squatting behind the plate for seven innings. I thought he was inching out everything he had."

If the ball had gotten through, the Indians, trailing 9-8 at the time, could have taken a lead.

Old school: Asked what his highest pitch count was during spring training, Trevor Bauer said, "I have no idea. I never pay attention to pitch count. Personally, I have a vendetta against pitch counts."

Bauer will make his first start with the Indians on Saturday night.

Stat of the day: Rays lefty Matt Moore, who beat the Indians on Friday with eight strikeouts, averaged 8.88 whiffs per nine innings last year to rank third in that category by left-handers since 1900, behind Rick Ankiel of St. Louis at 9.98 in 2000 and Herb Score of the Indians at 9.70 in 1955.

Tristan Thompson dominated the game with 29 points and 17 rebounds for the Cavaliers.

BOSTON, Mass. -- After looking lifeless in Wednesday's 113-95 loss to the Brooklyn Nets, the Cavaliers post-game media conference was dominated by different forms of the same question.

"Have you guys checked out?"

Although no one was able to find the right words for an overly convincing denial, the Cavaliers used their play on Friday to send a message, snapping their season-long 10-game losing streak with a 97-91 win over the Boston Celtics at the TD Garden.

Energy and effort? Yeah, they were there.

"I thought they responded perfect," said Cavaliers coach Byron Scott. "I thought they were into the game from start to finish. We came out with some aggressiveness and focus. We played hard. We played all 48 minutes."

• Final statistics from Cavs-Celtics | Scoreboard | Standings

Tristan Thompson finished with a career-high 29 points (10 of 17 from the floor) and pulled in 17 rebounds against a Boston squad that played without Paul Pierce (sprained right ankle) and Kevin Garnett (left ankle inflammation).

"I don't know. I really don't," said Scott when asked what got into Thompson. "I just know that he was just really geared up to play tonight. I had a little talk with him yesterday after practice on a few things -- I don't think that was it -- but he came out tonight [and] maybe it was some of the things that [the media] said. We have to come out and play like men and I thought our guys did that."

The Cavaliers (23-52) dominated Boston (39-37) on the boards, 58-42, and held the Celtics to 40 percent shooting (36 of 89) from the floor. Kyrie Irving, who went just 4-of-20 from the floor -- thanks in large part to the defense of the Celtics' Avery Bradley -- finished the game with 11 points, eight assists and five rebounds.

"It's good to have a win like this, when Kylie doesn't play well," said Scott. "Tristan was fantastic. I thought everyone else after that was real solid."

Jeff Green led the Celtics with 23 points, nine rebounds, and four assists. Shavlik Randolph added 16 points and seven rebounds before fouling out.

Despite Irving's off night, it was he who the Cavs went to for the big shot late in the game. With Cleveland up seven, Irving crossed over the Celtics' Jason Terry and connected on a jumper to put the Cavs up, 95-87, with 1:22 on the clock and all but seal the win.

"They did a good job of regrouping and coming back and playing good solid defense," said Scott. "Offensively we tried to allow Kyrie to end the game for us and he wasn't able to knock down his shots like he does on a consistent basis. But he did hit a big one."

After another so-so first quarter, Cleveland upped the physicality in the second thanks to Thompson (12 points), who took advantage of the Celtics' lack of a big man. He entered the half with his 27th double-double of the season already in tow (21 points, 11 rebounds) and the game tied at 52.

Third quarters have not been a Cavs strength, but Friday proved to be a nice exception. The Cavs outscored the Celtics, 22-16, holding Boston to 27 percent shooting (6 of 22) and were a plus three on the boards.

With 10:19 left in the fourth, the Celtics Jason Terry was assessed a flagrant foul for running into C.J. Miles near the halfcourt line. The ensuing free throws gave the Cavs a 78-68 lead.

A Terry 3-pointer with 5:46 left brought the Celtics to within four, 87-83. However, a Thompson slam and a Wayne Ellington jumper quickly brought the lead back to eight with just under four minutes to play.

After a Tyler Zeller (nine points, six rebounds) lay in with two minutes to play put the Cavs up seven and a defensive stop, the Cavs went to Irving for the dagger.

"It's just pride, pride as a man, pride as a basketball player," said Irving. "You wake up everyday and you get to play the game you love and I feel like we were taking things for granted a little bit and that happens with a younger team. We're in the rebounding process.

"Ten in a row, that's out the window."

About 1,000 supporters fill the stands in Mentor as Rockets workout raises funds to help cover medical costs for cancer-fighting Ashlee Barrett.

Teddy Cahill

Special to The Plain Dealer

MENTOR, Ohio -- During a break in Toledo's spring football practice on a cold Friday evening, Ben Pike stood near midfield of Jerome T. Osborne Stadium and prepared to address the crowd. His former Rockets teammates had come to his high school to host a scrimmage to benefit Pike's fiancee, Ashlee Barrett, who is battling leukemia.

The stands were filled with Pike's friends, his old football coaches, even his elementary school teachers. Pike barely knew what to say. He had spent Thursday with Barrett in St. Louis, where she received a bone marrow transplant. Now, he was surrounded by the love of his hometown.

"I can't say enough about this community that I grew up in," Pike said. "The support that I've gotten from everybody has been fantastic. You guys really know how to take care of your own, to take care of people who grow up here."

Barrett, a former Toledo basketball player, was originally diagnosed with leukemia in April 2012. She briefly was in remission, but learned the cancer had returned Jan. 25. Pike made the decision to forego his senior year of football, graduate in May and move to St. Louis to take care of Barrett.

Soon after learning Barrett's cancer had returned, Pike's former teammates began to brainstorm ways they could help. Offensive linemen Greg Mancz and Zac Kerin, who will both be in Pike's wedding in June, came up with the idea of having a scrimmage in Mentor and took the idea to coach Matt Campbell.

From there, Campbell worked with Mentor coach Steve Trivisonno to make the idea a reality.

"Ben is so important to us," Campbell said. "And to watch him and what Ashlee has been through and for us to have a chance to give back and make a difference, it's certainly something that has gone a long way."

Trivisonno estimated there were 1,000 people at the scrimmage. All proceeds from concession sales as well as donations collected at the gate went to Barrett's care. Pike's mother, Becky, was blown away by the event and had to fight back tears as she talked about how much it meant to her family.

"A lot of people that aren't football fans came out that don't really understand football," she said. "For them it wasn't about football, it was about Ben and Ashlee. That's very humbling and heartwarming and emotional."

Pike is now focused on what he called Barrett's "road to recovery." He said she hopes to be released from the hospital in about three weeks. Pike will move to St. Louis full time after graduating in May. Their wedding is still scheduled for June 15.

For at least one day, Pike could focus on the support he still enjoys in his hometown, where hugs and handshakes filled his evening.

"I couldn't ask for a better community," Pike said. "They've always been there for me. It's been awesome."

Massaquoi had 17 receptions for 254 yards in nine games last season while dealing with hamstring and knee injuries.

Mohamed Massaquoi, frequently unable to play due to a variety of injuries, signed Friday as a free agent with the Jaguars. He has 118 career NFL catches, scoring seven touchdowns. Chuck Crow, The Plain Dealer  

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jacksonville Jaguars and former Browns receiver Mohamed Massaquoi agreed to terms Friday on a two-year contract.

The 26-year-old Massaquoi spent the last four seasons in Cleveland, catching 118 passes for 1,745 yards and seven touchdowns. He has averaged 14.8 yards a catch in his career.

He had 17 receptions for 254 yards in nine games last season while dealing with hamstring and knee injuries. He also endured multiple concussions during his four years with the Browns.

The Jaguars are looking for depth behind starters Cecil Shorts III and Justin Blackmon. They signed slot receiver Jordan Shipley last month, and also have Mike Brown, Toney Clemons, Jerrell Jackson and Taylor Price on the roster heading into next week's orientation camp.

The 85th Cleveland Golden Gloves amateur boxing tournament got underway on Friday night at the Brook Park Recreation Center.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- First-time amateur boxers. You've got to love 'em.

Climbing through the ropes, not exactly knowing what they are getting themselves into, the sub-novice division boxers were on display during the opening round of the 85th Cleveland Golden Gloves tournament at the Brook Park Recreation Center on Friday night.

Four 152-pound fighters debuted in the squared ring for their first attempt at punching and being punched. Just like baseball, there were also plenty of swings and misses.

Najee Evans from the Glenville Recreation Center and Kevin Cole from Akron's Terminator Boxing Club got through their encounter in short order, the three one-minute rounds passing in a blur. But not if you were in the ring.

When it was over, Evans got the nod from the judges as he pressed the issue by trying to sustain his jab.

"I trained for three months," said Evans, 22, who attends Cuyahoga Community College. "I didn't think I'd get tired that fast. I was pleased with my training because I worked hard, but I have to keep the fight at a nice pace."

Cole, 17, an 11th-grader from Uniontown, might have lost the decision, but he was not down and out over it.

"Hey, dude, you're pretty quick," said Cole in congratulating the winner. "It's a lot quicker than sparring. I wasn't nervous. I was looking forward to it. I spent $52 [to register with USA Boxing], so I'm planning on getting a bunch of fights for my money."

That will not likely be the case for 25-year-old Juan Luis Rodriguez. Fighting out of Freddie's B.C. in Lorain, Rodriguez did not have much go right in his debut against 152-pound Antoine Johnson from the Cleveland B.C. Johnson, 22, had the stronger punches from the start as he staggered Rodriguez midway through the first round and put him into the ropes with a strong right hand at the end of the round.

Rodriguez should have known what was coming as another right hand dropped him to the canvas 20 seconds into the second round. It also split open his bottom lip, sending him to the hospital for stitches, as referee Kamal Hasan waved the bout over.

Johnson was not about bragging afterwards. He was just glad to get through it.

"I was nervous," said Johnson, who works at a Family Dollar store on Payne Avenue in Cleveland. "It went in slow motion. I wanted to finish him, but I'm glad it's over."

Coaches Omari Braxton and Mike Dix were upbeat afterward, already getting ready for a match against Evans in two weeks.

"He's been dedicating himself and working hard," said Braxton, who has a professional cruiserweight bout Saturday in West Virginia. "I wanted him to be a part of the Gloves and keep him active. He did everything we told him."

Coach Freddie Barreiro said Rodriguez had a case of ring fright from the opening bell. "He was scared and I don't expect him to box again," said veteran Barreiro. "He's more into the training."

In the open ranks for experienced boxers, Jeremy Abrams from King's Gym in Bedford Heights decisioned promising Alejandro Salinas from Youngstown's South Side B.C. in a tactical match at 132 pounds.

Making up for that loss, Southside's Jonathan Gregory won his open division match on points against Brian McElrath Jr. from Akron's Good Shepherd B.C. at 152 pounds. Open heavyweight Cyrano Clay from United B.C. decisioned Jerrell Brown from Cleveland B.C.In the novice division at 152, Dominic Rodgers from Glenville decisioned Mohamad Bodair from the West Side B.C. and Sir Willam Colfield from Thurgood/PAL outpointed unattached Anthony Cannella.

Fourteen bouts are scheduled for Saturday's card at 7 p.m.

MONTERREY, Mexico -- Lauren Davis of Gates Mills lost to fifth-seed Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova of Russia 6-2, 7-5 in the quarterfinals of the Monterrey Open on Friday.

Davis had defeated fellow American Coco Vandeweghe in the second round to reach the quarterfinals of the hardcourt event, the last WTA event to be played on the surface before the start of the European clay court season.

It was her second WTA quarterfinal of the year. Earlier, she reached the round of eight at a tournament in Hobart, Australia. Davis also won a Challenger tour event in Midland, Mich., earlier this year.

Heading into the tournament, Davis was ranked No. 71 in the world and has climbed steadily up the rankings since turning professional nearly two years ago.
