Hey, have fun with it play tight D on man-to-man Watch this man-to-man defense Nara. They get it and push and up up tempo up tempo There's a picture of the coaches right there going over their stand So let's take a look at the starting side here for the south we have Josh Casalica the coaches kid at the point guard position Jack Brusa the other coaches kid at the two guard and then up front the small forward Carter Aldredi you might recognize that name son of rich nephew of Mike two great baseball players from the region Jacob Hass at the other forward position and then the center you saw there as well And then the north side Mitchell Newman at the point Kai Stevens at the shooting guard Devon Northcutt The small forward Sarah the power forward and Deshaun Hopkins the center this north squad is loaded with local talent You will see all five members of this starting five make an impact that whatever high school They go to in Santa Cruz County without a doubt and so when we come back It'll be tip-off of the eighth grade game of the north against the south here from Scotts Valley High School on a CTV Sports Welcome back to Scotts Valley High School where the north versus the south game two of the Central Coast Middle School All-Star classic We'll feature the eighth graders from Santa Cruz and Monterey County Nara Wang and John Pangelli calling the action for you court side here on CTV sports and John We saw a great first game where the north came back to win 46 44 in the seventh grade game And now it's the eighth graders.

Also Jacob Haas a sharpshooter out of Palma and then also on the north side Why don't you bring us through there on the north side? Well, we got to talk about the son of the organizer this whole Smith Middle School classic Reggie Stevens This kid Kai Stevens. Yeah, Kai J Stevens folks This is a as an athlete who like I said we will see here about him in high school along with his teammate or actually Davon Northcutt and also Deshaun Hopkins physically such specimens The the south represents some great size and the north as well The north will come out in a man-to-man defense and it's gonna be typical of a Santa Cruz High School Pete Newell defense man-to-man in your face. They're gonna get after it This is gonna be a great contest Nara You see their huddle there as the coach with his back to us LeWon Millhouse giving you the final instructions to his kids LeWon has been on the scene in the junior high realm for about five or six years at Shoreline He's a great coach very very animated. So cameraman. I'm telling you you want to watch this guy because he gets he gets animated There he is right there. Nice shot of LeWon got a nice beard going on right there. There he is. There he is LeWon Millhouse and he'll have his troops ready to play and Imhotet Ari Amun Ra are the two coaches for the north side. Yeah, a little little information on Ted Amun Ra Ted Coaches at Mission Hill and I'm telling you everybody If you want your son to learn how to play man-to-man defense that coach knows how to Make him play. I saw him earlier in the year and the Ed Keith Ed Kelly classic There's Terry Sasselica Terry Castellica and Stan Bruce are the two south coaches and you know Terry from way back way back in the Days of Watsonville in the 70s Terence was one year younger than me and he got after it Don't let that size confuse you like I said you can't measure the heart and his son's gonna be playing in this Different sizes for the head coaches of these two teams But but then the assistants the same deal Ted's a little bit smaller and it's Dan Bruce a big guy I tell my players look some of you are gonna be born Porsches and some are gonna be born Hummers You're a Porsche and there's certain things a Porsche can do that a Hummer cannot do and then you gotta have Inside and outside in basketball. I can't just be one of the oh, you don't want all five Porsches Because you'll get posted up so a nice mixture So now they're introducing the all-stars here. Yeah, you just saw there On the north side Devon Northcutt And there's big number five from the south Liam McMillan 6-2 from Palma Wow And now Kai J Stevens Mission Hill reminds me of a young Chris Weber. Just watch the fab five on ESPN documentary. Hey, here's a specimen Zero. He's wearing Carter. Aldredi Got a nice three-pointer saw a minute earlier in the three-point shootout Samuel Sarah here for the North Holy Cross Lost a heartbreaker to Mission Hill in the Ed Kelly classic eighth-grade finals this year Sam Sarah and Jack Bruce a son of Stan San Bonaccio Middle School in Salinas. There he is number 33 to Sean Hopkins from SLV Wow, I called them LeBron at the Ed Kelly classic So we got a good crowd on hand here at Scots Valley High School to watch the eighth-grade game now of The Central Coast Middle School all-star classic. Yeah a couple questions worrying what kind of turnout we would have at the thing So we're gonna have the anthem sung here by Katie Payne We are just about ready to go for the second matchup of our basketball double-header today on CTV Sports It's the north and the south Santa Cruz County against Monterey County You're gonna notice that the Monterey County squad is in the dark uniforms the blue gator uniforms the former AAU team out in Monterey now They just use it for a Friday night rec league and on the other side the north is going to be wearing the home whites And they're wearing their school jerseys They're gonna love those colors of the Gators representing the Florida look like the Florida Florida Gators as well as the New York Knicks and there's your north team representing with their middle schools SLV Holy Cross Sam Sarah Sam Sarah for Holy Cross Panthers went against the Mission Hill For the champion for the SLV for the championship lost by two Sam Sarah carrying his team the whole ways Look for Newman the point guard. He was he was Sam number one Mitch Newman is the point guard legitimate point guard could hit the three Him and Sarah complimented each other so well on that Holy Cross team fell a basket short against SLV And those two guys will be playing together at Archbishop Mitty. Oh, wow next year powerhouse in San Jose And then here's the tip and it'll be won by the north side Newman collects it and gets it to Sarah And now Mitchell Newman running the point for Santa Cruz County squad Look at Newman load of the ground. Look at that He'll try and take it all the way. These are just a bit short and it'll be south ball knocked out of bounds I love that matchup right there Mitch Newman and Joshua Castellica Great job. Oh, we got a press here so Santa Cruz County coming right out with the present here's Carter Aldredi and he swings it over for the layup and that's good by Leah McMillan Well, one way to get a press taken off is the score against it quickly So we'll see how long that press can last for the north south seventh graders jumped all over the north seventh graders Let's see if their eighth graders will do the same Newman tries to drive kick Kai J. Stevens for three No good, but there's the big man inside with the rebound Hopkins. Yeah to Sean Hopkins I just call him LeBron because he is the real deal and he gets into coach Doug Morris's football program That's OB look out and Sarah up and in and the foul. He'll try and complete the three-point play Sam Sarah is money around the basket. He knows his his way with his both his right and left hand Here's a little review of it He seals his man and he goes up creates contact off the basket got it and one Sam Sarah foul on Jack Brousa and Three-point play completed By Sam Sarah three two early here in the favor of the north Left corner Brousa for three misses everything and Hopkins has it and he's gonna try and go all the way himself And now slow it up look for a guard Sarah Thought about the three now North cut to Newman Man defense by the South Hopkins Goes to the ground and it's taken away by Casaleca He sees all dready open on the break all dready with the left hand flip and get it And there the ball knocked out of the hands of Northcutt, but Sarah right there to collect and The North squad leading by one bringing it down pull up three Sarah good What a pit what a crowd we have on hand here today great showing and the steal by Sarah Looking for Northcutt the up and under but he traveled before he got up That's where you need the one power dribble and go up. You got that right good call there So full-court pressure though from the north side here's Sarah again another steal by Samuel Sarah and he goes up And he will get fouled Two shots coming up for Samuel Sarah South might want to get a timeout find a way to get out of this press They're turning it over way too early here Foul is on Jacob Haas Jacob Haas he's a good kid Was that Notre Dame before he left for Palma in middle school Jake great outside shooter Sarah missed everything on that free throw. Yeah, and he's really a great free throw shoot at the line Whatever take a little bit to get get used to the bigger high school gym versus the smaller middle school gym Just like you called it John We have a timeout being called by the South squad as coach Terry Casaleca and Stan Brusa want to talk it over with their team Yeah, that press was a nightmare and they're gonna figure out a way to get it out There's coach Casaleca instructing Haas and his son Joshua right there Al Dredi standing six foot coach Brusa chiming in and we got in the background. That's our DJ. He's spinning some record He's got a little Michael going right now. You got to have a good ambiance here first coach middle There's ready. They're taking a picture This is all the idea of Reggie Stevens we had him on earlier today great guy great heart for those of you who don't know who Reggie Stevens is He went to Santa Cruz High was a multi-sport star there Eventually went on to Rutgers University to play football and then with the New York Giants in the pros He made it to the show. What can you say? Move back here to his roots and trying to get things going in the community not a bad place to be Santa Cruz, California Not at all Samuel Sarah has all of the north's points right now now seven. Wow Sarah on the game Okay, let's see what they do. We got Casaleca just gonna break it on his own He'll try and go all the way dumps it off and in the bucket by Leah McMillan well when they have broken the press They are two for two McMillan has all four of the South's points. So right now. It's seven for Sarah four for McMillan and there Nearly a steal Newman has it back Northcutt boy. Casaleca is sure of a mosquito on defense And how about the day glow shoes by the SLV kids? Yeah, I love that night vision Movement nearly lost the dribble but regatherers and on the right side pull up no good Sarah there board up No, and I'll dread he pulls it down and he's gonna try and go all the way I'll dread he a one-man show and call for the charge A little bit out of control there Here we go, we see it. He's got to give it up right now for the pass back great job by The Sean Hopkins for drawing that charge. Good job to Sean. That's where he gives it up to Casaleca early You'll get right back for an easy you got it. We'd be a great one to on the break There's Mitch Newman. He does have a three-point shot Stevens blocked there by al dreddy on the three-point attempt and the foul inside looks like it'll be on Jacob Haas Yeah, to Sean Hopkins just out strengthening there are the opponents and pulling that one down with his pure strength He's a specimen So we're gonna get Substitute into the game for the South Scott John Stivers will come in for Liam McMillan Six two for six foot South squad a lot of big guys for eighth grade kids and the turnover now here Stivers just into the game will drive on Hopkins and draw foul Good move there to avoid going right into Hopkins went to the side and gets the blocking right these gators Or shall we call them the Monterey County all-stars are just taking it right to the rack not pulling up from outside So Stivers will go to the line Carmel Middle School will be playing at Carmel High School next year With this person Stivers comes from a really athletic family all of his older siblings are in college playing varsity sport And his favorite basketball player Doug McDermott of Creighton his sister Lizzie plays volleyball there Okay, I mean I've never heard Doug McDermott being anybody's favorite ball player But you know what at the first annual all-star game. It's a first for everything exactly there We go Mitch Newman the point guard get that Steven to Sarah Sarah at the top being guarded by Sarah pulls up and makes the short 14-footer He just money feels very comfortable out there nine points All by Sarah for the North Squad and they lead by four there we go man-to-man defense this side of the court Casaleca gets the screen from our dready looking to drive left side high off the glass Just a little off and he'll get the rebound little man out there gets it kick it out grusa On the right side now I'll dreading right way The low dribble get it back out to the point guard Josh. Casaleca man-to-man defense all over the court You can beat it two ways Screening rolls and north to south attack with the dribble Not side-to-side Now I'll dready pulls up on the left wing long with a shot Rebound bounce around it's the tug-of-war on the floor in a held ball situation Which will give it to the south the north would be very happy if I'll dready decides to launch from three-pointer again Nora took attack the man-to-man defense when it's you have to go north to south and not east to west Hopkins with the quick hands there, but he hit it right back out of bounds So again the south to inbound love that matchup with Newman in Casaleca. That is perfect for us Short on the shot and Sarah there with the board Sarah filling up the stat sheet early in the first quarter Nearly carried the ball there now Stevens on the right wing He'll pull up the fly-by-ball dreading a nice pass inside North Cuckoo get it in I Love North Cuck's body long and lanky perfect for basketball Bright future ahead for him Casaleca Draw the foul there on the dribble and now looks like a line change again substitution coming in here for the north. Yeah So all five guys will be leaving the floor and we'll have the backups coming in Got Keenan Williams Darnell white Timothy Wagner Was is Michael LeCapria is mugs. He bokes out there number 15 Who's Darnell white listen at 5 3 from I love I already love the kid Darnell white look at him He's matched up against Casaleca sizing them up right now. Oh, he could be a crowd favorite and Casaleca is listed at 5 2 but what appears to be taller than the 5 all the Darnell white Coaches are playing games with us Inside looks like the foul called on LeCapria on the drive by Casaleca Casaleca really aggressive player. I got a feeling I got a feeling there's no quitting Casaleca We'll be seeing that kind of energy for part here's a little replay of Casaleca going baseline hard and he drew the foul number 51 I Don't have a 51 for the north Or a 50. I'm sorry Mickey LeCapria Mickey LeCapria from SLV going to SLV Misses on the free throws though and try getting his own rebound, but knocks it out of bounds instead Capacity crowd here at Scots Valley like to thank Scots Valley High School for Letting us put on the first annual north-south all-star game middle school junior high Wow, that's awesome Look at look at look at them look at them dish look at that dish. Oh, I turned it over threw it into a crowd And it's taken away by Zach Berry another one of the Palma kids into the game Aldredi looking for a cutter and there's Stivers. Oh Off the glass a little too strong rebound inside knock the round it'll stay with us out nice follow-up by Zach Berry 5 10 for out of Palma Zach is a real stud underneath very physical Very physical Aldredi couldn't put it in off the in-bounds and now we're gonna go back the other way Timothy Wagner Scots Valley Middle School He'll be playing here next year and then Kasselica couldn't put it in on the nice break probably better off Just catching the ball and bringing it out ma And now on the other side Keenan Williams puts it up it in all Keenan great job by Williams way high off the Backboard Brother played at San Cruz high pretty good player in his own right. Oh, yeah, Keith He lit it up at Holy Cross to and junior high and it just the the tradition continues Again Keenan trying to follow in the footsteps again that team at Holy Cross Newman Williams and Sarah they were tough So now white and Kasselica. This is the point guard matchup you like to see I love it Why looking for a teammate look Capri are coming outside now Wagner pull up 18 footer blocked by Aldredi There's the size of Carter. Aldredi. Yeah Stivers looking for Aldredi on the left side. He'll try and go up and he is just physical Just six feet tall and I mean this is even his best sport He's one of the top baseball players of his group in the nation was invited to try out for the USA baseball Wow 14 under team that's impressive. He went to the rack with reckless abandon right there Kasselica losing the balance and able to re gather because it was knocked off the North player Now driving putting it up and drawing the foul. He'll shoot too. Yeah, nothing going on. He wasn't going to get that shot off I think that North team just needs to stay on the ground with their hands up. No need to To leave your feet again. Yeah, if you're a youngster out there and you see somebody shooting from the outside There's no reason to try to block the shot. Yes, it is impressive But you need to get in the closeout stamp because one pump bank and you're out Kasselica to the line Makes that one to cut the North lead to five 96 seconds to go here in quarter number one 11. Six is our score North on top One out of two at the line for Kasselica If you're going to go to the rack you want to make a pay at the line And now oh a collision there in the lane and it's going to get a foul caught on the zack berry I believe with the blocking call Looked like al dready got called for it Zero with caught on al dready instead So the foul there This place called four across it's a bunch of screens going on Stolen by Kasselica Kasselica doesn't know he had Keenan Williams coming behind and it's taken right back by the north and now here is Seth Fletcher Puts it up and puts it in Fletcher Say that say that five times foul Seth Fletcher and they switched up the numbers We thought he was going to be wearing number 10. He's wearing number 21 instead But there the bucket by the south up and in for zack tamania look like A minute to go here in quarter number one 13 8 The san cruse county all stars ahead in this eighth grade battle Nice bucket by tamani Wagner the handoff to white who will shoot from three no good The rebound tried to track down by Kasselica, but it goes off of him out of bounds Kasselica, which is bottled up energy Five point lead for the north and they have the ball looking to get it to Wagner Now Keenan Williams Will shoot long on the three and Kasselica gets the long rebound Waiting for his teammates Right wing pull up three way short by tamani Looked like he was in rhythm, but he couldn't get it done. Now Kasselica with the stew. He's got out Dredi ahead And he leads him and Dredi had to go with the reverse couldn't make it stivers with the follow puts it in Stivers bailed out out Dredi on that one nice hustle by By the six footer at carmel going to carmel high school like you said earlier I like stivers with the follow. Good job Wagner misses the runner and now stivers the big man showing off the handle going coast to coast and gets the foul Good job by stivers some good minutes by him It looks like the half court defense in the slowdown tempo really favors the north But it's when the south up temples it that's where they're getting some nice looks And that's the philosophy that coach Kasselica won. He wanted to go up temple. He said the big man moved well So he wants to push the pace and that's what they're doing So john stivers to the line Makes the first how about that position they just flashed his position a point forward And he's a 4.0 gpa as well. So it's a smart kid. I just can't stand him Just just hurt I was a 4.0 student One point my freshman year sophomore year junior Yeah, 4.0 there the desperation shot to end the first quarter no good So the north has a two point lead after 1 13 11 is our score here the eighth grade game of the central coast middle school all-star classic and We're going to see some replays from the first quarter But in general, what do you think of the pace and the flow of that first quarter? Well, I thought that first unit for the north were really excellent But I got to hand it back to the south for that up tempo game that brought him back because they're not getting anything in the half-court game Their half their shooting is atrocious right now getting used So really the first few minutes of the first quarter was all sam sarin here He is out of holy cross put it on the deck left pull up 15 footer 15 footer sarin nails it on the other end. It's the follow by starvers Really a big kid Knows his way around the basket love to have those kind of role players on the team But go ahead sam sarin I just wanted to mention scored nine out of the 13 north points So he was really good in that first quarter got out to a really good start Sarah family williams family court side watching their kids Yeah, Keith williams there he is on the right plate at santa cruz high school Stud basketball player at junior high and now the little kid They played they were their names were all over the ed kelly classic that uh out of notar dame the season ending tournament in the ccal So it'll be north ball to begin the second quarter as they have a two-point lead Playing the eight minute quarters. So getting them used to high school rules. There you go Oh, yeah And now the starters back in for the north as hopkins goes strong and takes the foul Well, that was all set up by the point guard number one mitch newman They ran the pick and roll to perfection and newman put it a one-handed bounce pass to dishaun right there Let's see if dishaun can knock down. Let's see how his sop is 511 forward from slv dishaun has got to get Real comfortable at the free throw line because being so physical he will be fouled a lot going to the basket And He's also a football player and participates in track and field Doug morris at slv's got to be licking his chops to get somebody like that And we have al dready back and forth to al dready. Look at this up temple nice bounce Stivers with the easy bucket. Well, that's that's the success factor right there the up temple Like you said terry catholic wanted from his squad So the lead down the one for the north as they bring the ball back up newman crossover dribble in the lane Just off but hopkins with the board up strong. No The fight for the rebound hopkins again another chance in in well Stivers did a good job like they're a block in the first one But dishaun kept it up and the steal by michael newman behind the back dribble Or sarah rather newman was calling for the ball in the right wing And sarah going back up knocked out of his hands He'll get the steal right back A little ragged there on that possession but the north still with an extra opportunity Screened by hopkins rolls on it and he just rushed the shot. Yeah, he's got to come down with it and go up stronger Stivers Bringing the ball up clear sailing hopkins. They're late and stivers lays it in I'm telling you what stivers has been doing it for palma for the last two three years in sixth grade seventh grade and now eighth grade Excuse me carmel carmel stivers. He's your x-factor today for the south So now sarah with the ball guarded by aldredi Yeah, aldredi's now taking sarah a different matchup cost evens cost was mapped up against sarah earlier Jump stop in the lane and good by newman. I gotta love it when those Porsches go and take it through those hummers Castellica here's a Porsche. Oh no look and in for leo McMillan, but the dish from Josh Castellica coach lawan millhouse is going to call a time out. We got to stop this fast break somehow 1817 year score In the second quarter six oh nine to go and the pace of the game picking up here Yeah, absolutely the the up tempo by terry castellica squad It's the no-look path that you got to love it froze the sean Hopkins for that split second and that's just basketball iq from joshua castellica And those guys are used to playing with each other castellica and McMillan the co-mvp of palma's eighth grade team There you go. That's why we have you here nara That's why we you are you have everything you did your homework. There's castellica and coach brusa given instruction. They're in this game. They're in it to win it And if you didn't like the 4.0 gpa before leo McMillan 4.16 gpa You're starting to get on my nerves with his gpa. No, really seriously Congratulations to these kids who can who could be standouts on the basketball court as well more importantly in the classroom So right now getting aside That's what we want out of these kids to do both well academically and athletically for the south leaders right now Stivers has eight McMillan four and castellica three assists three steals. Yeah, he's he's your playmaker. I don't want him to leave the floor Kaijai Stevens on the right Pull up the 15 footer good by Kai Stevens and he's on the board Well, he has such nice vertical leap that that jump shot no one's near it when he puts it on the deck and goes straight up His dad had a pretty good vertical leap back in the day. Yes, he did. Oh, yeah And it looks like he's gonna be bigger than his dad though So he might be you know, yeah, he is so young and there's the growth factor the curve is huge Wonder where he's let's see where he's going to high school. He's going to Santa Cruz I thought there were some rumors that he might go over to coach gray at harbor high Now stivers puts up the shot the short jumper no good good block out by steven And he'll try and push the other way and he's got He had north cut but saw him a little too late And now we gotta down brusa brusa He slid into that pad the pad was there And the pad doesn't extend all the way down to the floor. So he might have run into the wall Yes beneath the pad when he slid. Yeah, I believe you're right right there that pad only goes About 16 inches. Here's a nice shot of it. Good. Our camera guy got it. But look at that Yeah, that's cement folks And that pad should extend down low, but he that was a great shot by our camera crew Well, I got it. I got it really handed that Ctv with our cameras all all our shots. We've been getting all afternoon You guys are doing a tremendous job and even in the truck the graphics are just so right on good job proud to be part of this inaugural broad broadcast And we're glad to be with you narwhang and john pengelli as they take a look at jack brusa on the sideline Obviously, his dad is concerned and it looked like he you know, like we said he hit the underneath the pad And they're just going to make sure, you know, obviously concussions and head trauma is a big deal and uh, not just, you know youth sports, but all over now So back to action. Steven's the pull-up jumper. He's feeling it now smooth 22 17 north up by five the full-court pressure Out dreddy tries to go all the way lays it up and in Yeah, somebody's going to need to take another charge on al dreddy on that one to stop that Because he just wants to get to the basket Did you want to get in front of carter al dreddy? No, I said somebody else does nara Because he's not settling for outside shots anymore. He's just taken to the rack And the travel caught on sarah, but he almost had his pocket picked anyway by al dreddy 22 19 north up by three last four points scored by the north will by kai j steevens And now josh kaselika guarded by newman dumps it inside the mcmillan mcmillan up misses the short Six-foot jumper and now newman throws it out in front for stevens left hand layup girl Nice left hand by stevens right there if he didn't have the left he wasn't going to get the shot off Look at this tempo by the gators kaselika throws it high in the hard off the backboard Good rebound by haas right there And newman tips it out of bounds nice offensive rebound by jacob haas Jacob haas has been the hustle guy so far for the south squad So Stivers look at underneath what's going on sarah sarah doing a good job in mcmillan body on sarah mcmillan Hopefully we got a wide shot there. They're going out Three-pointer no good there by jacob haas good box out by sam sarah right there Sarah looking for stevens stevens the hot hand for the north now the cutting north cut to his t-beard hopkins Oh Gets the board right back misses the follow and kaselika there to collect Now out dreddy with some space looking to drive Tried to go all the way look like he had a maybe a dump off there for mcmillan if you wanted But now out dreddy hobbling a little bit shanked a little ankle possibly he's got some low Okay. Yeah, he's okay. He's gonna stay in Kaselika little man goes up and off with the 10 not the shot not the shot the south wanted right there So here comes sarah bringing the ball up Pull up and car out dreddy with the big block But sarah'll get it back off the rebound and miss the left hand layup Out dreddy again good blood lines there as he gives it to kaselika top of the key three. No sarah another rebound Yeah, really like to see stivers get in that Get in the offensive flow. They seem to be very successful When john stivers the six footer out of carmel gets the ball down low on the rock Maybe an inside out game with haas should be taken those three pointers not kaselika so Little loose rubber band on the floor being collected before we can start up play again with Devon north cut to inbound for the north side who are up by five And they'll call the kick there. So we'll do that all over again Sam sarah leading away nine points five rebounds and two steals already in the first half And i'll dread he gets the hand in there knocks it away and macmillan gets it Now i'll dread he's looking for help coming he's gonna go all the way himself leave it short though There's haas the follow no good And i'll dread he will go to the line to shoot two free throws. Yeah, I mean it's a battle of wills underneath by both teams And now unit b for the north will be coming in So the coaches millhouse and amin raw for the north side using the hockey line change substitution pattern as i'll dread he makes the first so we'll see the Unit b as you like to say come in for the north side And then a couple of subs as well for the south. Yeah zack tamani zack berry the palma teammates Yeah, I mean we have several palma eighth graders on this team haas macmillan berry tamani and And castelika played a palma So i'll dread he makes both And it's a three-point lead for the north Well, of course a big program here in the area. Well, you know palma's not used to losing They were 14-0 in their regular season and also Mission hill, oh excuse me slv ran the table And the pull-up there the nice keenan williams jumper What a soft jump shot great form anybody want to watch that one slow that one down inside the stivers Little distracted by le capria coming from behind And now darnell white the little lie you love i love him We'll get it to keenan williams. He just made one Now we'll kick it out to white white waiting for his team to resettle Like a good point guard should He's barely distribute Got caught up and traveled So jacob haas will re-enter the game and joshua castelika get his first break of the game here 221 left to go in the first half 26 21 our score the sancruz county eighth graders on top of the monorail county eighth graders Carter al dready Six footer from three. Nope And the rebound off to wagner and they're the reach in by haas Yeah, jake wish he could have that one back right there You know, al dready doesn't need to be pulling from three against this b unit I think he they should get it inside to him or Stivers there's definitely a height advantage now for monorail county all-stars There's a nice shot So we got the bonus the one-on-one for timothy wagner scott's valley middle school going to scott's valley high He'll be playing in this gym He'll miss so the south with the chance to cut into the five point by charles burke See he's gonna be better getting it in the key and darnell white with a rip And now the fast break for the north He'll pull up and get swatted there by zack tamani darnell had a guy open on the baseline He should have gave it up. This is where the south need to pound it in And the runner no good by haas the shot selection just not jiving right now for them Don't let him shoot keenan williams will pull it out white block last time will swing it around the wagner Now fletcher and he's blocked by al dready What an athletic play by and then he saves it now He'll get the ball back look for his teammate and williams saves it from a sure to what uh What an athletic play by carter al dready blocking the shot saving it from out of bounds And going on the fast break al dready walter colton middle school will be at monorail high playing For the toria doors next year and he's a multi sport star obviously now monorail's happy to get him I'm sure palma would have loved to have letcher on the run. No And le capria gets it michael mickey le capria throws it away now al dready in the clear williams Disturbed him enough haas with the rebound no Gets it back and now al dready will reset it to the top the three-pointer on the way no good by zack barry and finally the north gathers Fletcher double teamed here as the little full court pressure by the south before they back off Now keenan williams Nearly threw it away and now that's going to be a foul by haas as haas over aggressive. Yeah Jacob jacob wanted that still he went on the floor and got after it right there It just seems like uh the south are having so much more opportunities But they're just not knocking down their shots versus the opportunities from the from the north Three fouls on jacob haas and like you mentioned some of the shot selection You might question because there have been opportunities to maybe yeah one more pass find a guy inside Yeah, they're trying to take make nothing Make take something out of nothing right there and it's better just to pull it out the lay-up the out of control lay-ups as a coach I just can't stand it So al dready will bring it up Wagner on him. He goes to the left. He throws up a wild shot. No good rebound stivers puts it in Well stivers is cleaning everybody's junk up right now 26 he's he's the one right there 26 23 north up by three 15 seconds to go in the first half No good on the shot there by Fletcher So the south can hold for the last shot five seconds as al dready know the clock three Two he's gonna pull up from way downtown and just off the back of rim So the staff will go into halftime trailing by three It's 26 23 north on top in the eighth grade game of our doubleheader here the central coast Middle school all-star classic on c tv sports.

They have a three-point lead, but the south it seemed miss some opportunities there Yeah, absolutely naro. I thought it was a great contest north Loses a little bit when they go to that when they go to that lineup And I think the shot selection by the south needs to just be a little bit improved In order them to stay in this game and let's take a look at some of the highlights from the first half It looked It looked like it was sam sarah at the beginning of this contest He scored the first seven points, but al dready when he goes to the rack Is just crazy strong On the other side of the court. We have dishawn hopkins working his physicality Underneath he puts it up and in and dishawn has got to get squared up when he goes back up because he'll from there It is when he's squared up. He's fine and there he's good and then on the South side we have macmillan with the nice short on the no-look path by al dready the no-look path but stevens came in Nice left hand layup by the eighth grader right there And stivers for the south has been cleaning up all miss shots at everything He comes in there with reckless abandon and pulls it down gathers himself off the backboard and good And he has kept the south in this game him alone Him and al dready stivers leading away with 12 points for the south sarah with nine for the north So when we come back, it'll be second half action of the central coast middle school all-star classic eighth grade boys Game the north has a three-point lead here on ctv sports Welcome back here as we are just about ready to get the third quarter underway with the north santa cruz county all-stars 26 and the south's monterey county all-stars 23 Close tight one here in the eighth grade matchup game two of our basketball doubleheader narah wang and john pengelly with you here on ctv sports Hey nar nice to see number six Jack brusa back in the game after that spill Yep, he was checked out after he hit the wall sliding for a loose ball And it is good to see him back in the lineup for the south side All right, you have that classic matchup at the top Now they go right inside the stivers and that's a good call by the south And their stivers follows the miss gets the board and now he'll go for a three-point play of the line Let's face it. We don't have a shooting chart on hand But where this team is successful is in the paint near the basket not from the outside once in a while They'll get one of those but look at there's our man Johnny stivers a point forward out of carmel middle school number 10 Six footer by guys been a demon on the board and there's carter al dreddy with the offensive rebound, but he Stumbles and gets called for a traveling call a very athletic team inside their their game is power on the inside Al dreddy six points for rebounds three blocks in the first And the point guard joshua casaleca four boards three assists and three steals the north coming now They only shot seven for 23 in the field from the first house So they're gonna have to improve that number here as they're a turnover And I'll right back michael newman two on one. What's he gonna do? He didn't want to challenge al dreddy, but the cutter his teammate sarah will get fouled and go to the line Right newman knew he made that made that mistake, but he made up for it on the steal It's a very heads the up point guard right there number one Mitch newman newman newman sarah nine points five rebounds two steals in the first the holy cross Eighth grade star who will be moving on to arch bishop midi high school and that's a really a really good school for him And michael newman be attending next year and that's a well-known sports program not just in california, but around the country. Yeah, absolutely Sarah goes one for two at the free throw line two point game two point lead for the south Here's al dreddy at the top sarah guarding the bigger man And now casaleca left wing Looking for someone to get it to brusa Back to al dreddy Al dreddy tries to drive on stevens pull up 14 foot jumper is good That's more in control instead of launching from three But what's more important is they're one on one down low and the south will have some opportunities This quarter to get the ball down low So the south has tied it up at 27 sarah with a blow by try to reverse it up No, but hopkins cleans it up sarah had the left hand layup But he decided to go right and with a leg in a little bit out of control A little bit too much funny stuff going on with these guys instead of getting down to the fundamentals and that left hand is huge Now cast look at down low new hopkins Oh, yeah, look at down low. Look at these post-up guys Casaleca the runner now stivers with a follow. No, stevens Had it now they'll go to north cut north cut pushing it up the right side swinging around Newman for three that's his shot. No just a bit long, but hopkins is there puts it in How about Deshaun hopkins lebron He gives the north a four point lead a couple minutes into the third quarter of this game I'm dreading just ran over hopkins. No call, but now north cut will have it for the north I'm telling you the big boys are coming out in the second half and this game's gonna be one inside It's a war north versus south And now Newman will try it again from three and this time in and out I've seen that kid at holy cross buried those Stevens couldn't make it on the follow after getting the board and now I'll dready We'll bring it up for the set and the swing there As mcmillan misses the open jumper And gets his own board but called for the travel 31 27 5 20 left here in the third. This is still anybody's ballgame Newman has had two opportunities for some open threes. He didn't nail them We'll get it to newman newman looking for someone Here's hopkins And now Stevens mission hill eighth grade star puts it up. No basket. No basket The foul on the floor While Stevens just launched that shot up. He has such vertical leap. He feels confident that he even got the ball over stivers Stevens at 5 10 shoots over steiber six foot with ease. Look at sarah underneath and al dready Warning from the referees to tone it down on sarah and andra Sarah and andret al dready are going at it. They're smiling at one another. No hard feelings here just hard play And there hopkins off the inbound with a nice 17 Well, nice to see the shawnd get off to a nice third quarter with two putbacks and a jump shot South gotta watch it here Casaleca on the left has to get it back to al dready al dready surveying the situation looking for his teammates to get in their positions And he'll go all the way. No follow with a one hand. Oh boy. Carter al dready is a special athlete We talked about the bloodlines dad rich played nine years in the minor leagues and was the coach at csu monray bay their baseball program and uncle Mike al dready, of course, and there's samuel sarah left hand. Well, there's that left hand We're talking about that's sure better than a dipty-doo with the right hand That's a nice controlled layer Casaleca driving dish Now al dready top of the key Driving the lane and finds stivers a little too hard on it Scramble for the rebound will go to the north and kai stevens Now stevens needs a guard. He's like triple team back there and finally finds samuel sarah And then Casaleca good anticipation We'll kick it out al dready the three from the wing is good inside outside Carter al dready keeping his team in it 35 32 338 left Now newman wants a three to answer. No, that was ill-advised. That was not needed Mitch So al dready will he go all the way he does and he runs over sarah But who we call for the block on that one sarah white set. Oh, this is a battle going on between samuel sarah from Holy cross and carter al dready from walter colton mill school Can al dready keep this pace this whole game? He hasn't left the floor Carter al dready at the line will be playing at monoray high and his future may be brighter as a baseball player We mentioned he's one of the top youth baseball players in the country and his bloodlines Of course go to that with dad rich and uncle mike So carter al dready 14 years old a big man who they've been using a lot at the top two to handle so multi-skilled tremendous size On the other side samuel sarah is trying to keep the north in the lead He's got 12 points on the game 12 of the 35 by the north as they lead by three Tamani in for the south along with jacob haas and i look for jacob haas with al dready going to the basket so much The bait haas is going to be open on that three-point stripe. That's why he's on this team. He is a three-point shooter Stevens will drive the runner in the lane. No rebound goes to seth fletcher But now the turnover and We'll get a foul call here as the south has a chance to tie or take the lead on this possession trailing by two Look for haas setting up in three-point land. Look for the maybe the Drive-in dish by al dready or the all By casaleca drive-in dish There you go stivers up and good John stivers they can't scoring leader the north cannot let al Casaleca penetrate that causes all sorts of problems for the North's defense we gotta tie ball again. Casaleca penetrate 35 all here as the pull up by Sarah off glass. No Rebound being tipped around and finally fletcher has it. We're knotted up here We're knotted up stivers up ahead to casaleca. No left it short Nearly a chance for the south to take the lead They haven't had the lead since only in this ball game the little man white up and over the basket Fletcher though with the board And there the nice dump to hopkins hopkins having a quarter here Eight points in the quarter Deshaun hopkins Giving the two-point lead back to the north The south had their opportunity to take the lead on the casaleca lay a look at the no look to Wow, that's a combination. That's working Stivers spinning in the lane puts it up and in We are tied again at 37 Nara, are we gonna have another finish like the the previous game fantastic finish to the seventh grade game We can only hope for the same here as Sarah misses the long three And the foul call here as hopkins went to the ground wiped out on the rebound attempt And tamani, I think is going to get the foul called on him. Yeah, zack got caught Trying to hold down Deshaun hopkins We're we're knotted out at 37 37 Fletcher will inbound the ball from underneath Hopkins, but it was tipped slightly and now it's a loose ball. Stevens has it Finds hopkins underneath and there's jacob haas called for the foul thought he had it clean that one looked pretty clean right there Looked like he got all ball and it spun off his hands Here's a here's a take let's take a look at it. Stevens goes in he dishes off the hopkins. There's haas from behind Ooh And that's great shot four on we have the best cameraman in the county great replays great camera work by our ctv Look at the graphics The shot on hopkins you're going to be hearing that name a lot for the next four years in town Two shots they kind of forgot about that it was a two shot foul And so we had a sub coming in for the north keenon williams Holy cross future santa cruz high cardinal Well, can you see williams and stevens all at santa cruz? They just keep replenishing domhoff's got to be very happy coach Bill domhoff got to be happy getting these recruits in there Oh for two from the line there by hopkins, so the score remains tied up at 37. All right Well, let's see if the south can do there's that penetration and the disc they got to stop that Stivers again, and he will go to the line for a three point play possibility. Casaleca is the one making this happen He's breaking down the defense Watch this. Look at the no look And stivers just what dishawn hopkins is doing for the north down here stivers is answering point for point down low Stivers at the line trying to give his squad a three point lead And he does just that 40 37 your score south now in front of the north here with 90 seconds to go in quarter number three Darnell white will bring it up to williams williams driving puts it up the short runner no Out of bounds. It's going to be south ball good box out by jacos right there Held his ground got the call over the back. They tipped it out of bounds. Okay You got to change your defensive scheme right here Casaleca all the way to the bucket. It's not too strong. Audrety cleans it up on the other side It's the same thing over and over again for straight possessions 42 to 37 south up by five Approaching a minute to go in the third quarter as the south has turned this game around Here in the second half and the pass a little too hot for keenan williams too hot of a pass to shon Too hot of a pass Looks like the north's going to take a well deserved time out because we got ourselves a five point game Though south that monterey county all-star team really working it We're going to keep it right here during the time out 42 37 is our score And if you want a copy of this game, we got dvd copies available for 25 dollars Learn how to get them at community tv.org slash dubs or call 831-425-8848 for more information So let's go to the huddle of the north and there's ten amen raw talking to a squad Out man got all your business out to three point content now you're going to make a whole lot of it Okay Run whenever you want to run when you find out i'm okay with that. I don't care Okay, but I need to be strong with the basketball and bring this back in Man stop come out here to watch this get woke. I want to have a long trip home I'm ready on the put back here I'm just very well controlled when he gets up there. He's not even putting it back up. He's actually holding the ball and then Shooting it in now coach Aman raw tet we like to call him was very calm and now I was very impressed in his huddle But he did send out the challenge to hopkins about cleaning up the boards and he's he's challenging them right now He's talking about the defensive slide on the the penetration They're trying to make an adjustment now. They're posting up al dreddy. That's where he belongs Good defense by sarah. Oh boy up ahead fletcher. Keenan williams lost the dribble, but hopkins is there block Loose ball and castley got out of bounds when he touched it 35.9 on the clock to the north And of course tent was a point guard at bethany university here. So point guard call keep the team full Absolutely. He's the quarterback. He did a great job right there There's the shan. There's that challenge. Oh Looks like a reach in by al dreddy. No call. But there's been a call on the right there I thought that was a foul Look, oh That's going to be a foul look like castelica a little too aggressive there But good sportsmanship as white also helps them up after a little bit of a spill So the north will take it in bounds 33 seconds to go here in the third quarter as they trail by five Big possession Now white big possession back court there. Yeah, but uh, they let it go and they're a little bit of a Handcheck call on josh castelica Josh got to watch himself. This team needs him in the game. He is running the show Referee's having a discussion right now. I don't know what what they're talking about the possible missed back court Or I mean it just looked like a simple hand check foul Nothing they looked like getting thrown elbow or anything. So not sure what the discussion is But we're gonna have North ball out of bounds. Okay al dreddy on sarah The offense will be coming from sarah or the putback by Hopkins and they're knocked away And here's castelica all the way up and in 20 seconds to go In the third seven point lead by the south north got a buck up Where's the offense coming from and the steal by al dreddy He's gonna take it all the way in for the layup and now a nine point lead Five seconds to go here in the third quarter whites gotta realize it get it up Keenan Williams can he get the shot off in time? It's blocked by stivers and what a turnaround in the third quarter 46 37 year score as we go to the break here And the south has come all the way back to take a nine point lead Well, they just had themselves one of the finest quarters of an all-star team and what it was led by Joshua castelica the penetration against the man-to-man defense with the no-look passes to john stivers And carter al dreddy doing the follow-up. It's been castelica al dreddy and stivers for the south Stivers already 23 points in the game I mean he is just all around the middle of the bucket there for the south squad Here's here's the challenge set by coach ted at the time out You got a vert of the sean you got to own the board and that the challenge was answered right there Al dreddy with the steal being very active on the wing goes in very controlled right hand It's when they get into trouble when they try to do too much with nothing It's better just to bring the ball out. Well, they're feeling it the gators the monterey county south Are feeling it nara Coach castelica and brusa have to be happy and they just want the third quarter play to continue here in the fourth Quarter, you know castelica that that's where I feel the north has suffered by mid By newman michael newman coming out of the game and having number 15 darnel white Their trading time can't get into a quite of a flow, but we know 23 joshua castelica is in that flow And castelica pump fake up and good so the south now has a double digit lead 48 37 just the mental air on the inbound by north cut sarah will pull up No good steven had the board lost it, but it goes to newman michael newman fancy dribbling into the lane blocked by al dreddy And now we're going the other way castelica out in front dropped it back for al dreddy It's getting desperation time. I don't want to say it, but 37 50 50 desert is getting pretty much the desperation for the north The north has to find somewhere to put the ball in the bucket only shooting about 30 on this game Now steven's drive has it knocked out of his hands and the call is going to be a foul on it A believe jack brusa. Yeah for the north to get back to this game They got to get hot offensively and I think they got to change up their defense. I really do I don't think the man-to-man's working with this group of kids and a zone might work They haven't showed anything from the outside narra Nothing Wanted to pack it inside. Yeah, not let al dreddy and stivers get those easy exactly pack it inside and give it up because They are breaking down this man-to-man defense Now they try to get the ball in but castelica right there And uh, is he calling the fouls or just out of bounds? Castelica coming out a little bit lane injured a little ankle He doesn't want to come out of the game. He's not looking for help. That kid's tough just like his dad terry Inbounds is on the floor. They can't inbound the ball They're having a hard time inbounding the ball to the south with the 13 point lead with the possession Looking inside the stivers and hopkins. Okay. There's a stop one at a time and the throw ahead to hopkins. Oh nice job Good job by Deshaun hopkins right there. He made it Looking for his teammate there now And now a little bit with the steal. He's got stevens Jump stop up and in. Oh, yeah, I think a little timeout might be coming if you're the south You better watch it. Here comes the north. Haas lined up for a three Can't get it short and sarah has the board. He had new man up. He's got to get rid of it now. Sam one all the way Sam Sam had two guys open had a three on one, but he steals it back now. He's fouled by al dready He had hopkins on the right. He had new one on the left You like you talked about narik you give the ball up early. There's a good chance. You're gonna get it back Be mad at you if I was open on that wing and you were dribbling like that I'd be mad at you and I wouldn't be looking at you. I'd be I wouldn't be looking at the bench. Come on All right, well We're in the bonus situation now though. So sarah will go to the line shooting the one and one It's still a nine point deficit sarah's free throws are critical because a nine point seven point lead with six minutes Is tough in junior high Got it Good stroke by sarah on that first one Cuts the lead down to eight for the south squad The south was just blitzing the north there for about a five minute span on the miss look for hopkins To try to get an offensive rebound right here Rattles out and it'll go to the south Okay Well, it's all about defense if you're the north. That's what it comes down to because you could trade baskets All you want There it is almost divers almost had his pocket picked by seth fletcher. Are they clearing out one on one I'd give it to kasselika and newman's got it got a challenge. Why good up there? Why back up? Let him shoot from three He'll break you he'll break you Stivers set the screen to open up kasselika for three talking about let him shoot And then oh Steel by al dredi and it went off of sarah out of bounds So south ball leading by eight here 548 to go in the fourth quarter of this central coast middle school all-star classic eighth grade boys game We go inside the stivers And he's gonna be all oh he gets bailed out by the foul But defensive help came down. He attacked his back with the ball And thought they were going to get a travel call. He got called with the slap So sarah reach again got a d up The north has got to get some stock By the foul as sarah went for the pump fake good job by carter to show that and then Have sarah fall on again the man-to-man defense brought that on because they're getting picked Why not pack it into a two three zone pack the paint and let the pass go out All they're gonna do is set screens and get the bigs open kasselika No good. Who's gonna grab the board that? Knocked around and fletcher will track it down. He'll go all the way on brusa up and no That's the one they needed look at no man to stevens and stevens can't put it in rebound follow good Okay, six point game. It's on baby It's on pressure being shown by the no foul no foul There it is. I'm ready for three right corner. No inside. Haas. No stivers rebound by haas Stivers again. No Here's haas again. They're tired haas stevens finally. Oh jacob haas with multiple Offensive rebounds great hard five shots on that possession for the south and kasselika rips it from stevens I had the out ready And he'll put it in all that All that effort for the north and you still give up two points Give it up to the south right there 52 44 and a timeout called by the north side As santa cruz county's eighth graders are trailing by eight. Wow That was an exchange nara. I'm out of breath. I need water You need a to I needed this to some up and down action here in the eighth grade boys game The south leading by eight here four thirty seven to go and they've got to be a happy group day on the south side Meanwhile, the north all stars have to find a way to get those inside rebounds because they're getting killed on the board Right and I I still want here. Let's go inside the huddle right now There's coach lawan millhouse going guy What's really going what's really going to be A disadvantage to the north to thwart any sort of comeback is when the south spreads the ball There's no shot clock and now you're one-on-one with castelica and we we know what he can do So that's going to be Trouble look at steven for three No And haas grabs the board strong rebound by jake haas doing a good job both offensively and here's a stat for you Out dreddy 24 points skyver's 21. They have 45 of the 52 by the south side They've outscored the north by those two guys and guess where all those shots came from most of them both points Inside yep now williams is going in to shoot the three the three is going to be open the corner They just took out stevens. You're going to give williams a shot at it. Oh Did you just see what happened there newman wasn't ready for the inbound and it went off his head So it's going to be a turnover and the south gets the ball boy that one could be on espn top 10 right there Okay, there's no rush now look now you might be able to get a five second call there's that high screen and roll Castelica couldn't put it in with the left and now Gotta get it out gotta get it out williams and gets it to williams. It's too late North cut to hopkins back to north cut in that game There we go 52 46 six point game stevens going back in full court pressure Now out dreddy in the front court To castelica the point guard son of the coach terry Try to dump it into stivers, but it goes out of bounds Well if the north ever needed a three right now here is your time now williams is coming back out Stevens is coming back in will stevens let it fly through three Williams has a three in them left High pick get castelica off Got your mismatch you got your mismatch down low with hopkins Wagner was open in the lane no one saw him Now north cut drives and is grabbed Well the clock stops and they have an opportunity to go the line and shoot point that is perfect for the north Carter out dreddy will get called for that foul and one and one at the line for Devon nor cut and and and you know nara just like the seventh grade game where there was a Influctuation of Buena Vista players this south team does have quite a bit of palma players So the continuity, you know if castelica drive an addition. He knows where his teammates work Look at this north cut. He said he's long and lean his favorite player is kevin by man Perfect match. Here we go Now the four-core pressure broken stivers to mcmillan No gets his own board Three minutes left six point game not a panic situation Newman just hasn't gotten on track offensively Out dreddy will pull up And there's mcmillan nearly another rebound and the ball stays south here as the score Is 54 48 251 to go in regulation if Newman would have hit that teardrop it would have been great for the north Oh, look at that ready off the inbound Remember that zone defense on the inbounds. I wish they would go to They're sticking with their man to man. They're gonna live and die Eight point lead again for the south high screen Newman's got to pull that You got a high screen and then you'll have the mismatch on the switch Now newman trying to direct his teammates too much time here Toss the ball all the way to the bucket ladies Mitchell newman gets the ball back on the steal Who's gonna take the Newman fancily drilling no look to stevens underneath and he is not found apparently but north cut gets the ball back Trailing by six the north has the ball wide open Oh three right wing No good and our druddy has it he'll try and go three on two and The shan hawkins with a hustle to get back Great hustle the crowd acknowledging it everybody likes what's going on today We got good things happening in scott's valley today And the south wants a timeout to talk it over calm things down a little bit as the north is within six With a 154 on the clock and right there That looked like it was going to be a three on one break at the shan hawkins comes streaking down the court to knock it out About absolutely there's a nice crowd shot But again, you were talking about this the inbounds they're all going the south way When I coached at Notre Dame in junior high I couldn't wait to get the ball inbounded underneath my own basket And especially if the teams were playing man to man because I knew the plays that I had drawn up Obviously these guys are used to running those plays this south team being predominantly palma players And I just couldn't wait and what's happening is they're getting layups out of it. So Knowing that I'm saying to myself as a defensive coach You're not getting a layup off me out of the out of an out of bounds play You want to hit an open shot from three point land? I'll give you that I am not giving you a layup And right now the north has given up layups So coach LaWatt-Mellos trying to get his team back I mean, there are only a couple possessions away from making this a real game They got to just play better on those inbounds defense and find a way to get it to the bucket Now one thing I did notice earlier in this contest is McMillan and stivers are not exactly high-profile free throw shooters You might want to look to foul them and stop the game and send them to the line and play like a hacker shot Here we go. I'll dress you on the left wing with Sarah all over They don't even need to attack. They can hold it out. There's no shot clock He tries to go in wild shot There's that challenge of of Deshaun Hopkins by the coach. Don't oh what an athletic play And he saves it to Newman What an athletic play now, Sarah Trying to go through the legs falls to the ground. They're out of control and they turn it over Up ahead Casaleca The little stutter step That was that was Monta at his finest Wow, the stutter step move by Josh Casaleca and a travel called on Kai Stevens He hit the ball Oh the north is upset cannot believe the call Oh the rest trying to they're trying to This is a big call the rest are conferring One's going to saw the ball the other they're already they're having who's going to win It's either going to be a turnover on a traveling call or the north will get this is an all-study You've got to give them a basket. Come on. There we go. He did hit the ball So let's see what the call is going to be here as they're going to come over the scorers table So I think they're going to say it's an inadvertent whistle So This is a big momentum swing here because So we're going to figure out here. Who's going to get the ball? Obviously Luan Milhouse and Imhotep Ariyama and Ra want the ball to be kept on the north side Trailing by eight here with just a minute and six seconds left on the clock Because this is a big call here. Yes 106 left. I mean they're running it out of time I mean got to give it up for joshua casaleca thought Showed that he was going to take the three and then right at the end it was the stutter dribble Left hand all the way in a right hand to play up all the way in josh casaleca is Unbelievable today casaleca. He hopes to attend UCLA eventually and that was a move that we haven't seen some of the UCLA guys currently doing They might want to bring them in early now coach howlin So let's see here. Who is going to get the ball looks like it might be going back to the north But still waiting on the referee's decision here Both referees seem to see two different things and then there was also maybe an inadvertent whistle So it's going to be White ball north ball north ball out of bounds trailing by eight 66 seconds to go here in the central coast middle school all-star classic eighth grade game and casaleca Steel all the way to the rim and lays it in Casaleca's the difference maker him and al dredi and stivers under a minute to go 10 point deficit for the north Stevens for three no here comes north cut with the rebound They're gonna have to start firing up some shots quickly and it's going to stay north ball knocked out of bounds there by the south Looked like zack berry got his hands on it And a timeout here by the north side trailing by 10 47.1 on the clock What's it going to take for him to make a desperate come back here? It's going to take a miracle because with joshua casaleca playing over his head playing Not not like a five two guard, but somebody who has a five foot two inch heart The inbound has been a problem all day for the north and right here a soft pass by north cut Is stolen by casaleca and he just outruns everybody and he's been doing it all day long Joshua casaleca a five two guard out of palma middle school Who will be walking across the street to the high school in selenus california? Representing the chieftains from palma high Maybe one of the future stars for palma high school at palma high, of course They just had a pretty good star a few years back orlando johnson Went on the uc santa barba set the all-time school scoring record there just a few weeks ago And unfortunately for them they got knocked out last night by long beach state in the big west tournament But again the head coach at ucsb bob williams another williams Yeah, I ran into bobby at last year in tampa at the nc2a regionals And it's just one of the success stories out of santa cruz county bob williams out of aptos high school Went to cabrio college coach there then went up to davis won a national championship He too national champion and then got in at santa barba. So he saw orlando johnson oj and What a great career he's had these are the future stars right here You're watching them at the north-south all-star game and another turnover on an inbounds And casaleca can just draw it out. They're gonna have to start fouling here You would think the north side does as casaleca. They can't catch them Finally sarah does with 37 and a half seconds to go and a 10 point lead on the board for the south Yeah, and when you start talking about mvps or players of the game nara you have to put this situation What would the north team be like if casaleca was in their jersey? He could be the difference maker So even though audrey and stivers have the scoring points casaleca's making it all happen They he got him the ball. He was the facilitator of those guys They should take him out for a couple of double doubles that in and out later on tonight I think it was double doubles way more than josh casaleca does look at him But he's at the line made the first free throw for all you youngsters out there Don't let your height be An obstacle for you because right now josh casaleca has proved to you that it's not the size of the man And he gets the rebound off his own miss. Look at that How do you measure somebody's heart with that will to win that will to compete and that's a lesson for coaches as well A lot of time coaches look at size right in basketball for the detriment of a guy like a josh You're exactly right. He'd be on my team So it looks like samuel sarah has fouled out of the game So they'll have to replace him but a valiant effort by sam Yeah, sam came out and scored the what the first seven or nine points of this contest He cooled down a little bit and guess why he cooled down because al dreddy They did a switch on him and and he wasn't as successful against carter al dreddy So they're gonna bring in a sep fletcher To replace samuel sarah. So hopefully sam gets a nice hand from the crowd here Fouling out of the game and what's unfortunate is that this is the last we're gonna see if sam sarah around these parts Because he's taken his talent over the hill to archbishop midi But maybe he'll be back You just never know Castelica no good, but again, he's gonna track down his rebound and get it to macmillan Now that he's gonna swing the ball around play keep away and finally al dreddy is fouled by stevens Just a pocket full of energy so Under 30 seconds to go here the eighth grade all-star game and 11 point lead for the south and they're gonna look to ice it away at the line carter al dreddy future monray high toria door Great baseball player again. We've mentioned it many times the bloodlines rich and mike al dreddy his father and uncle Calmly makes the first dreddy He's one i wouldn't foul it was i thought it was we could Possibly the north could have fouled macmillan or stivers because al dreddy has a nice stroke And rolls that one in for a 13 point south lead And now it's really desperation time newman Kick out to north cut someone's got to get a shot up Will it be newman from the corner? No he lost it and that's the kind of day mitch newman has had This is i have seen this kid lighted up for holy cross and today is not indicative of mitch newman's game He'll be back though. You watch you'll hear his name. He's a basketball junkie. He's a gem rat. That's what he's gonna do He's gonna play the game. He'll flush this one after today. Of course you want to You want to impress the home crowd here? So castelica going back to the line And now it'll be two free throws as we're in the double bonus. I I'd like to see if somebody on the north Yeah, I got shooter on the miss because this guy So ketan williams will come into the game for the north replacing davon north cut also michael lecapia of slv Nice round of applause for Deshaun hopkins who gave it his best shot Yeah, don't tell me this game didn't mean anything. No, definitely Definitely the effort there on both sides in both games. Yep But it looks like the south is going to close this one out on the north leading by 16 Williams for three off the front of the rim out dreddy tracks down the board He'll find castelica and I think at this point they're just going to back it up and let the Seconds tick away smart play right there by castelica So the south comes north to scott's valley high school and they will win the eighth grade game And they deservedly so they deserve to win this one Good job so The south taken in game number two of our basketball doubleheader Over the north and it's been a great day of basketball here at the central coast middle school all-star classic And we are gonna Take a break but when we come back we'll recap game number two And we'll have the award winners from both the seventh and eighth grade games here At the central coast middle school all-star classic on ctv sports And welcome back to scott's valley high school where we're going to wrap up the day at the central coast middle school all-star classic Here where the south team wins 6550 in the eighth grade game to cap off the basketball doubleheader after the north team won in the first game the seventh grade game Narwang john pengelli here with a couple of the stars from the eighth grade game I'm with samuel sarah the pete newell defensive player of the game from the north side and john is with carter al dready the p the tony hill mvp of the game and First let's talk to sam and i know it's a tough loss for you guys on this one But talk about playing together as an all-star team with some of the guys that you're normally playing against in the ccao Well, it was a great experience to know i'm friends with a lot of guys on the team and i had fortunate to play with two players on They were on in my school team michael newman and keenan williams. So it was a lot of fun. It's good experience And then talk about uh the south squad. They were a tough match for you. How did the game go in your mind? Yeah, yeah, they're a good team a good team. It was uh It was a dog fight till the end. It was a great hustle and great shooting and just all around great game All right, let's go to john with carter. Well, we had steiber. We had castelica But i'm here with tony hill award winner carter al dready and carter Your guys had to talk to at second in the second half something came alive What was going on in the south blocker room at halftime in the second half Well at halftime our coach just really wanted us to get our energy back together because he thought we were slacking off towards The end of that first half He just told us to limit our limit our uh our turnovers And just move the ball around and get good shots I noticed it's a couple times you had banded that outside shot and you went right to the rack with reckola subband And kind of like what sarah has done all year long You're going to the rack. Oh, yeah, I saw I attacked the rim Hopefully get fouled trying not to get a charge, you know, just hopefully get a free throw I was the experience for you playing in this It was all around good experience playing from kids that you could compete with from other areas and it was all around fun game right on Thank you guys for joining us here And we also want to mention in the first game the seventh grade game Abraham Cateron won the Pete Newell defensive player of the game and Cameron Jones of mission hill was the tony hill mvp So when we come back we'll wrap up the day with highlights here on ctv sports It's been a great day of basketball here at scott's valley high school where the central coast middle school all-star Classic wrapped up with the eighth graders from the south winning 65 50 over the eighth graders from the north And a tremendous day here Brought to you by the nobby shop the central coast motorcycle motocross and moped store The nobby shop is an authorized dealer for cobra and tm motorcycles along with tomos moped Nobby shop offers quality service parts gear and accessories for all your street motocross atv and quad needs All bikes prepared and prep services available in soquel on rodeo gauch or on the web at nobby shop dot com And by central coast diamond fusion and window cleaning using patented diamond fusion nanotechnology Restores the luster and glass ceramic tile porcelain and granite Commercial residential and auto glass and surfaces can shine like new find out more at central coast diamond fusion dot com And back here narrow wang john pangelli We saw two great middle school games the seventh grade came down to the final seconds with a winning shot By evo lassage and then the eighth graders the south coming from behind to really pull away with their inside game Yeah, absolutely The the south just the light bulb came on and they started attacking the man-to-man defense of the north It was led by point guard castellica and he gave beautiful dishes to stivers and algereti underneath Repeatedly to get him the lead. Yeah, and really the south really Imposed their tempo. They wanted to go up tempo and that's exactly what they yeah Absolutely and the north had no answer for it. Mitch newman had a little bit of an off game And uh just didn't work out for the north, but it was a great it was a great job So let's take a look at the highlights from the eighth grade action Yeah, like we talked about it's al dredi's penetration and he hits stivers for the putback And then josh castellica on the run out. He was all over the board all over the court tonight castellica and then it was And then castellica again unselfish gives a no look to al dredi who basically finished everything he caught Underneath today, but the north striking back with seth fletcher after a turnover And there's there's fletcher on the nice dish by Dishon and then Kai j stevens son of reggie stevens Yeah, kai j nice vertical leap underneath hanging get it in and off the glass He gets his he put back and he puts it back in guy has heart. We're gonna hear a lot about kairi But here's the tony hill mvp of the game again carter al dredi. He's a man child out there He did it from all angles underneath Mitchell newman though. You like you said was a little bit of a spark. Yep. There's michael right there But then josh with castellica he seemed to be the difference in the game and he they had a hard Time in bounding the balls just with castellica and his man-to-man defense The guy stands about five foot three, but he what a bolt of energy really impressed by him Exactly. So john final thoughts on this inaugural central coast Well, I think I think really all kudos got to go to reggie stevens He just did a great job in organizing this first time event.
