 Good, hit the line, went out of bounds. Christian will have it back. 35-27, Christian up eight. Kohler's all for their first five. Jensma, good crossbar pass and they flip it over to Veldkamp for a wide open 10 footer. Good ball movement there. Christian up by 10 now. Christian Wolff being double teamed. Pass inside to Ryan Peters and he's nowhere to go. You get a timeout to prevent the turnover. I believe that's what it was. Timeout Kohler and a good timeout it was. Yes it was, it saved another turnover. Once again, just an awful, awful start for the offense for Kohler. They find themselves down 10 as he said Marty, they haven't scored yet. Committing, I have them for four turnovers again and zero baskets. It's been tough sledding I think, you know, so far in the second half, it's again been the guard play that's actually hurt Kohler. Now that got them back in the game in the second quarter. But by the same token, Christian is playing very good defense. Yes they are. And it seems like when they play better, when they play better their defense or when they score their defense really increases. Now they gotta have that defense of intensity all the time but I'll tell you what when they're ahead they really look tough on the defensive side of the floor. We want to apologize, we're having some technical difficulties tonight. Hopefully it isn't causing too many problems with your enjoyment of the broadcast but we apologize for the difficulties we are having. Christian Wolf had a good look inside but couldn't get the shot to go. Christian got the rebound. In JV action, Sheboygan County Christian won easily 53 to 22. Ball is tapped out of bounds by Kohler. Christian will keep it there up 10. 37 to 27, we have three minutes and six seconds remaining in the third quarter. Shot by Smeez is no good. And a good save by Jensma but it goes right to Kolb. He pulls up for a 10 footer and it rims out, rebound of Elkamp. So it's been over five minutes since Kohler has scored. Good defense by Kolb on Jensma and then we get it over and back. Fans don't like that call. No, I think they're asking that the ball was tipped. Coach Flipsey's asking the official to ask his partner which would be the right thing to do. And his partner's saying he didn't see it. We're a team. That's right. Good idea there by Coach Flipsey that, you know, at least I'm glad they asked. I'm glad they asked, you know, their partner at least, you know, try to get it right. Good defense by Christian forces Kohler to take another timeout. And again, this is a full timeout, Scott. So let's take a 30 second break and hopefully we can come back. How do you convince a 14 year old girl that hair doesn't matter? When the diagnosis is childhood cancer, where can parents turn?

We have two games next week starting on Tuesday, January 17th when Marion invades Lakeland College. And then on Friday, TV8, I see Brian Andrews. TV8 will be at North when Green Bay Preble invades the Golden Raider territory. So busy weekend next week. And then the week after we have a Tuesday game, but no Friday game. What's going on there, Coach? The war on the, what's that, the Christian war? That's the holy war on the show. The holy war, that's what that is. That's what you call that. Steve Reiner on the top camera, Brian Andrews on the floor camera. Scott Meerdink in the truck, my partner Chris Wright and I'm Mike Martin and that's the crew for tonight's ball game. Christian up 10, 37, 27. Kohler looking to get some points here in the third quarter and throws it right to Genzema. Trying to clear it out of the corner, not a good pass. Genzema goes hard to the basket and lays it up and in. Getting close to six minutes, Marty, without a single point for Kohler. Get in there. And nice running one-hander by Ryan Peters. Finally breaks the ice and we get a whistle. Holes on John Peters. Good news is for Kohler, they're only down 10. Better news for Christian, they're up 10. Well, we don't have to worry about that not having scored in the third quarter anymore. They got that monkey off their back. Blue bombers did. Justin Simmons, number 20, is in the ball game. Whoa, he came very close to that line. Genzema on a spin move, threw it away. Garland has it, takes it right down Main Street, kisses it off the glass but can't get it in. Belt camp takes it in the lane and shoots it off the glass and in. The bank is open. And that's to six of his rebounds he has already too. Another bad entry pass. Meerdink, not quite as quick as John Peters. Peters runs it down, saves a turnover. I know he doesn't, really. Turnover, turnover. Yeah, hot and heavy. And another turnover. Eric Genzema lays it up and in for an easy two. 43 to 29. Cold with a leaping shot in the lane, got it in. Scoring has been hard to come by for the blue bombers in the third quarter. Now one official I think had the violation, the other official had the foul and the foul is going to override the turnover. Foul goes on Ryan Peters. 59 seconds remain in the third quarter. It's been a good quarter for the Eagles. Kohler has struggled. 14 to four in scoring this quarter. Eagles up by 10 plus the two there up at halftime gives them a 12 point lead, 43-31. Well, Kohler seemed to be sitting in a zone. And you're down by 12. Well, I think they did that on the inbound, Chris. Right, now they got, now they're stuck. Yeah. Ooh, almost a double dribble. Down to 15 seconds and counting. Bryce Skytle wanted to take the shot, but didn't. Over to Simmons, outside the line, can't get it in. Battle for the ball, coming away with it was Bogart. A three quarter court shot by Colb is no good and that's the end of the quarter. Christian up 12, 43 to 31. Wisconsin, life's so good. Call 1-800-432-TRIP or visit travelwisconsin.com. Kohler High School where the Sheboygan County Christian Eagles lead it 43 to 31. Outscoring Kohler by a 14 to four count. And by all matter of fact, Kohler had as many timeouts that quarters they had baskets. That's not a good thing. No, it's not. And it's a two for 10 shooting for Kohler in that quarter. Justin Meerdink and Mark Colbley to all scores with 11 each. Vinny Adams right behind them with 10. Colb shot is off, no good. Justin Simmons pushes it down, nice pass inside. The rice kill for an easy two. Rice Kytle, pardon me. Christian Wolfe, fade away, eight footer got it to go. A nice shot by Wolfe. Wolfe now has seven points in the ball game. Simmons pulls it out. Christian content to run clock. Spreading the floor. Possibly looking for some back cuts, Chris. Ball is tipped away, Peters has it. Oh, a little behind back dribble and lays it up and in. Oh, is that pretty? Wow. For a minute there, Chris, I thought that was you out there. Holy mackerel. A nice little play there and a steal. And I think it's a little too early to run clock here. You only got a 10 point lead on the road and you haven't really done a great job of taking care of the ball. That's your 19th turnover. Garland picked up the foul, Chris, his third. Yeah, I think they're going, attacking a little bit more. You know, it's okay to run clock but just make sure you're taking care of the ball. A lot of the big starters for Christian are on the bench too. Simmons, stuff underneath, nice kick out pass. Shot is off, no good. And tipped away and there's a scramble on the floor and a whistle. We're going to have a jump ball situation. Good hustle by those boys. Arrow points Christian's way, so they'll get it. They're up 10, 45 to 35. Kolar getting a much better start to the fourth quarter, Chris. They've already got two baskets. Took them over five minutes to get their first basket after half time. Good post up move by Veldkamp. His shot is off, no good. Another scramble on the floor and another whistle. And this time Kolar will get it. They battled back to within one and the first half Chris it was well actually within two at 23, 21 and 25, 23 but they just never were quite able to get over the hump Kolar was. Wolf forces one, no good. Peters with the rebound and we get a whistle and a hold. I think that's going to go on. Tyler Veldkamp if it is, it's his third. Interesting to see how long Coach Flipps he keeps four of his starters on the bench. Christian muscles his way in and puts it up and in. Now they're only down eight. By the way, Kolar was able to creep within one at 25, 24, but that's as close as they got. And here come the starters for Christian. As we mentioned, Paul is on cold his second. Adams, Meerdink and Smeeze come in. Gensma, they ran that same backdoor cut that they did in the first half and Meerdink missed the easy layup. That was a little more difficult by Gensma but he does draw the fall. Paul was on Ryan Peters, his third. Gensma looking to get the second one in. He does, that makes it 47, 37. Did he make them both, huh? Yes he did. Wow, just that first one had my head down. Looked like it bounced off. Another whistle down on the other end. Here you get, Tyler Smeeze with that foul. Yeah, second. We're working the perimeter, looking to get it inside. Wolfe trying to establish post position but he's being double teamed. Yeah, it looks like a zone. There's Wolfe, nice pass. Pass inside to Peters, this shot is no good. His tap is no good. Smeeze with the rebound for Sheboygan. Adams almost had it stolen away now he does lose it. Very sloppy play. Turnover after turnover, bad pass after bad pass until cold nails a three pointer. First three pointer, the second half for either team. And now it's 47 to 40. Simmons forcing the action but he's cut off. Mirdink has it stripped away and Peters has it on the bust out. The shot to the hoop is no good and he commits the foul. They're going offensive foul. Yep, he took it in against the 12 timber but Smeeze, I believe it was, got down in good position and was able to draw the charge. 47, 40, Christian on top. Simmons, 13 foot jumper is off, no good. And then Smeeze is over the back and that'll be his third. Kolar's gonna get it back. It's only the fifth team foul on Christian. Kolar has seven. Mark Cole bringing it up, deliberately being guarded by Eric Jensma. Inside pass, the Bollard is backdoor pass. And shot by Peters is no good. Bollard with a kiss off the glass from the left side. Body's all over the place and somehow it's a five point game, Kolar got the basket. This could be big. Adams had a great look but couldn't get it to go. Simmons, stupid, shot up as he slid through the lane but it's no good and he is fouled. So he'll go to the line to shoot a pair. Good drive by Justin Simmons, Chris. A little more English, he might've got that shot in. Foul goes on Chris and Nemuth, number 44. No. Can't be, he's not on the floor. No, Bollard, Bollard, Kolar got the foul. I got it, I got it. Simmons hit the first. A big couple free throws for Christian. And the lead for them is now back up to seven, 49-42. And we get a timeout on the floor. Oh, mention it again. TV8 has two games coming up next week. On Tuesday, we'll be out at Lakeland College where they'll be playing Marion. And then on Friday, Green Bay Preble invades Sheboygan North. And both those games, important for those teams. North already has two losses in conference going into tonight's action. They'll want to get a couple more wins under their belt. They got a host of road games ahead of them as well, North does. In Lakeland, all this seems to play tough in that Lake Michigan conference. And Marion is going to be some stiff competition for them. Well, MSOE is actually leading that conference right now. That's a surprise. Yes, it is. But they're kind of a small, small little sleeper team that's been getting better and better. Actually talking to some of the people at Lakeland, they said that that could have maybe possibly happened. So that MSOE might be the team to watch, but they are playing much, much better basketball. People in the know are not surprised, but people like you, or I shouldn't say you, but people like myself, I am surprised. Right, but they've come a long way. And of course they have Scott Murphy, Sheboygan South graduate playing for MSOE. Nice to see him again. Well, he's at MSOE and Brian Miller, the Lakeland coach is actually the coach at MSOE. So he's slowly, but surely brought that group. That's pretty much been a doormat in that conference. I had a chance to see Murph last year when we went down to, my wife and I went to Concordia to watch Stacy play. And then in the second game, the boys played that particular day. Simmons committing a foul on John Peters. Not a bad foul, but the next one for Kolar will be in the bonus for them. Christian still has a seven point lead. Kolar's never led tonight. And... I mentioned they got it to a thin one at 25-24, just before halftime, but that's as close as they've gotten. They dug themselves a hole in that third quarter, Chris. Yeah, Christian always plays a zone out of the out of bounds play. So... Inside, nice inside out pass by Wolfe. Outstanding close out by Simmons. Kolar, Kold, I mean, way out there. Shot is no good. Belt camp with the rebound to Adams. He makes a circus play over to Simmons for the layup. Nice play by Vinny Adams. 51-42, shot by Peters is off. Boy, they could have used that hoop right there. We're under three minutes. Christian up nine. Oh, Marty, it's been a game of runs. Christian Kolar, Christian Kolar, Christian Kolar. Christian's got the last run here and it's the last three minutes. 30-second timeout by Chagoygan County Christian. You know, you mentioned about the game of runs. The problem is Christian's runs have been longer than Kolar's runs. And they've got the last couple here and whoever gets the ball last wins and that's the case right now for Christian. Kolar's in a situation here where they really got to put play pressure ball and take some chances and maybe even start following. Not quite yet, but you know, you got a gamble. I was just thinking though, you know, this timeout might be the start of pull it out and spread the floor and look for back door cuts, that kind of thing. It looked like they tried to do that. Dunno if it was right at the beginning of the fourth quarter, but you know, they definitely had the floor spread and it was too early to bring it out though, you're right. And you had mentioned that at the time. Well, I just, what the amount of turnovers you had tonight, you got to take care of the ball a little bit and here they do spread it out a little bit. Simmons has been a spark plug, gotten a couple of basks or four points, I should say. Offensive foul on Christian. Yeah, Simmons with a blocking foul, I believe it was. The ball is on number 50, Muirdink. His third, good shot of Larry Kampman and Jeff Wolfe. Larry's been coaching the JV team as long as Decil's been at North. 20, 29 years. Another turnover. And he's a long, long, long foot time football official as well. Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. I thought you were going to say long, long, long softball player and wagon softball because he's been there too. Christian running clock, we're at two minutes. Actually, 201 as the foul is committed by Mark Colb and boy, he took a pretty good shot when he reached in. Fall on Colb is his third. And Justin Simmons has had a nice fourth quarter, Chris. Matter of fact, he has scored the last four points for the Eagles. He's got to make this one to get the second, however. Clutch, yep, rattle that baby in. 52-42, Christian up 10 and 11. Justin Simmons coming up big here in the fourth quarter. Has six points in the game. All of them coming in the fourth quarter. Ryan Peters has it being guarded closely by Adams, dumps down past the Wolf and we're gonna get an offensive foul. Well, big guy like that when he moves in and another guy goes flying, you're almost doomed to get that offensive foul. Coler on the full court pressure. Under a minute and 50, belt camp going hard, cut off. And it's stolen away by Colb. He's gonna take it hard to the hoop, puts it up and it rolls off. Justin Simmons is going to draw the foul. Christian now has 22 turnovers. Last thing you want by coach Flipsy-Squad is a turnover and a three point play on the other end and we almost had both those bad things happen but Col missed the layup and now missed the free throw. That was the first free throw attempt by Coler in the second half. Pops that one in, 10 point deficit. Simmons had a good play there, threw it out of bounds. Oh, and he's gonna say, tipped off of both players and he's calling a jump ball and possession arrow points Christian's way. So they're gonna keep it. I would say that still should be a turnover though. Of course I suppose not because they keep the ball. Yep. I was thinking because they lost the possession arrow on the play. Gensima leaping leaner, no good. Meardink had it knocked away but Gensima gets it back and then. Wow, I think he's out of bounds. Peters stole it, Col going hard. I think he got away with a walk but he got himself a layup. I don't know how many more timeouts coach Wolf has but he's just about done but good tries there by Christian on this end. Meardink hitting the offensive glass but this couldn't get anything to roll. There's one minute and eight seconds remaining with that basket, Kohler pulled it within eight. It's 53-45 but it's a pretty tall order to overcome this deficit but three point baskets loom large in these kinds of situations. Yeah, three point baskets. You gotta take care of the ball. Other bonus thing for Christian right now is there in the double bonus which is a very positive thing. So that should help every time to get to the free throw line and I don't think I'd foul Justin Simmons if I was Kohler right now. That guy's been pretty much clutch at the line and I'd choose somebody else. As you mentioned Marty, a good comment Justin Simmons is having an outstanding quarter. Mark Kolb has 17 points in the ball game. He's having a fine night. You know as I mentioned that about Justin and his fine play, you know he committed a couple of turnovers. Taking away from his earlier exploits. Tossing it in will be Tyler Veltkamp. Simmons has it. Vinny Adams taking his time and then he's fouled and he'll be shooting two now there and a super bonus. Foul goes on Christian Wolff. Now I got a different player up there but Adams has been pretty clutched tonight too. Nice first half for Adams. Yeah, he had 10. He had eight in the first half. He had the first basket of the second half to give him 10 and that free throw now gives him 11. So he's been silent through most of the second half after that first basket. It looks sweet from the line there. Christian's been clutch. Made their last eight free, all 10 free throws here in the second half. Peters, no good. Peters had it stripped away but he's fouled. Tyler Veltkamp on the strip. Four falls on him. John Peters can't get the free throw to go. And Kohler's missed a bunch of free throws. They certainly have. But they haven't had a lot of chances. What's that, four here and a half? This is gonna be number four right here. They've hit one out of three and that one was woefully short. And tipped away from Gensima. Kohler keeps it. Basket is good by Ryan Peters and another quick timeout by the bombers. Well, Kohler has life, Chris. Well, those free throw misses do hurt. Yep, he would have hit one. It'd just be a seven point game, but there you see the situation. Christian up, they have 55 points. Kohler of course with 47, but under a minute. Now if you don't get the quick steal on the in bones, do you do the quick fall thing? I think you're trying to delay this game as long as possible. So yes, I would say you got to fall right away. Got to play in front though. Last time what they did is they snuck Justin Simmons from half court and he kind of went right towards the ball and got the ball, which is a good decision there. Everybody else has covered up. I don't know if you noticed this, but Muirding took a step up towards the ball and then broke back about two steps. You'd have been wide open and he kept going. But he changed to come back near the ball again. I think a guy like that might be open on the deep out. Or is it the deep post? In either case, Kohler better look out for the long one. Velkan made a good decision over there before not turning the ball over. He's real sure. Watch for Simmons now. Good substitution there, bringing Garland back in and he's a little quicker than Wolf. You can't bring in a substitute. Tell a second has run off. I'm not sure Garland. Yeah, you can't do that because you got to bring them in basically before the timeout. Before the timeout's over, that's right. So the substitution happened too late. So now you just don't guard the inbounder. You want to take away all the long passes and they're doing a good job and there's your turnover. Well, they wanted the long pass, but Wolf read it well. Cold from outside the line, no good. Wolf on the reach, but couldn't get it. Strips it away from Adams, but no. Shenzema still has it and good fall by Kohler to prevent Velkan from getting an easy two. Well, they got the turnover, Kohler that is, but Colb couldn't bang home the three and a new person to clutch up at the free throw line. Drew Bogard picks up his third. Another free throw. So weak. Man, a life. When was the last time we saw a free throw shooting like this? Shh. Talk about it after the game. Slap my mouth. That's in now. Oh, Martin, you. 56-47, Christian up nine and another foul. Fall I believe is going to be on John. No it isn't, it's going to be on Mark Colb and that's his fourth. Adams to the line, shooting two. 27.8 seconds remaining, Christian up 10 and the way they've been shooting their free throws this game is, you would think is pretty well in the bag for them. 58-47. Hey, put on out, they put the score up. They've been every once in a while, they've been a little slow on getting things registered. Ryan Adams no good, John Adams no good and then a whistle. I think that's going to go on Christian's mirdink and of course I was wrong. Fits on Veldkamp, that's his fifth and I believe that's what the horn was all about. Last foul was on Tyler Veldkamp and that's his fifth. Coming in for him will be Tyler Smeeze. Seven big remounds though for Veldkamp tonight. Oh boy, one out of five in the second half free throw shooting. One out of six, wow. Cora gets the rebound though. Cold shot off the glasses, no good Simmons skying for the rebound and that's going to be the ball game. Sheboygan County Christian wins it, 58-47. In a turnover laden game, we're going to step out for a minute when we come back. Hopefully Chris will have a couple of interviews and I'll have the final scoring from tonight's ball game.

Defeated Kohler, 58-47, standing by is Chris Wright. Hey, happy, a couple happy Christian players here. John, quick stretches today. You guys came out with quick starts. First quarter, nice quick big lead there. Third quarter, you shut them down real fast. You got to like that. Yeah, that's something coach really stretches every day in practice, defensive intensity and rebounding. We just work to get out intense every quarter. Well, you did. You really got out to a real fast start. And I think you hit it right on the head. Seemed like when the baskets were going in and the lead was getting more, the defense really was stepping up. Like I said, every day in practice, we stress it. We got to just take it one game at a time. Down the stretch tonight, you guys hit a ton of free throws in a row. I think you only missed one in the entire second half. You know, in a close ball game like this, or when you have to hit free throws, you really get the job done. Free throws have helped us and hurt us all season. And that's just something that helped us tonight. Well, congratulations. We'll see you in a couple of weeks when we take on Lutheran. Second half of the season, you got a couple losses already. You can't fall behind Lutheran anymore. Got to take one game at a time? Or is that too much of a cliche? Well, I mean, our priority was this week and we really needed the two wins this week and we got them. So now we can really just focus on Usberg on Thursday and then Lutheran for the second time we really want that game. Yeah, I know you got Lutheran coming up in a couple of weeks at home. Tough game, you know, to go on the road and play a team like Kohler, and as I was mentioning to John, those quick starts today and the quick offensive shooting must really got you guys going and on track. Yeah, definitely. I mean, we need the intensity and we definitely came out with it in the first beginning of the game, beginning of the second half. That really gave us a boost and we're really happy about that. Yeah, you get a lot of contributions from a lot of players. You get a lot of guys that get like 10, 11 points, eight points. You don't really have one not standout player. You know, that really helps with the team concept and you know, everybody's contributing really. Yeah, that's definitely a big. One of our problems has been finding putting it all together. And so, I mean, it's evens out, but once we get everyone going on the same page at the same time, that's when we play well. Well, congratulations. As I said, we'll see you in a couple of weeks against Luthor. Hey, this team is picked for second in the league at the beginning of the year. They look really impressive tonight. I think the rest of the CLC's got something to look forward to in the next couple of weeks. We'll send it back to Marty. Good job on the interviews, Chris. Let's go through some of the scoring from tonight's ball game, leading the Christian Eagles was Tyler Adams with 14 points. He was followed by John Muirdink with 11. And then Tyler Veldkamp and Eric Jensma each had nine. Coming up with a real strong fourth quarter was Justin Simmons. He had six points and he made some good defensive plays. Leading Coler in scoring was Mark Colbe. He had 17 points, but probably the story of the ball game and Chris alluded to it in the interviews with the two young men was a free throw shooting. Christian made 13 out of 14 free throws and that really sewed up the ball game. They were able to jump out to a bit of a lead in the third quarter and maintain that mostly on the strength of their free throw shooting. Our next ball game is going to be, and we mentioned this a couple of times, it's going to be next Tuesday when Marion invades Lakeland College and then Friday we'll be at North High when Krebel invades there. For the crew, I want to say great job for them. Thanks a lot for watching. For my partner, Chris Wright, I'm Mike Martin saying so long everybody. Thanks for watching and we'll see you down the road.
