Hall of Fame
Aaron Wilson, a 1996 graduate of Little Miami High School, was a standout two-sport athlete who excelled in both baseball and basketball, earning widespread recognition for his accomplishments throughout his high school career.
As a baseball player, Wilson was a dominant presence on the mound and earned All-Fort Ancient Valley Conference (FAVC) honors in each of his four seasons (1993–1996). He set multiple school records that stood as a testament to his skill and endurance, including most innings pitched (197), most strikeouts in a single season (90), and most wins in a season (7). His outstanding performance led to state-level recognition from the Ohio High School Baseball Coaches Association (OHSBCA). Head coach Mike Gentry praised Wilson not only for his pitching but also for his solid play at shortstop and his offensive production, calling him "a very good pitcher and solid shortstop" who was consistently among the area’s top performers.
On the basketball court, Wilson played under Little Miami Hall of Fame coach Rob Blanton and quickly made a name for himself. He earned honorable mention All-FAVC as a sophomore during the 1993–94 season before being named First Team All-FAVC in both his junior and senior years. As a junior in 1994–95, Wilson was named FAVC Player of the Year, showcasing his all-around offensive talent. Former assistant coach Gary Wirsch described him as “an offensive threat who could get to the rim, stop on a dime and sink a midrange jumper, or come off a screen and nail a three-pointer.” By the end of his high school career, Wilson ranked fifth all-time in program history with 984 points and third in rebounds with 429. His junior year saw him average a career-best 19.2 points per game.
Following graduation, Aaron Wilson pursued a professional career in the private sector and continues to reside in Warren County. His legacy at Little Miami is remembered not only through the records he set and the accolades he earned but also through the impact he made as a competitor and leader in two varsity sports.
