 Hello everybody and welcome Shabuigan South Security Fieldhouse where tonight, should I say, this afternoon Shabuigan South hosts Green Bay Southwest. My name is Chris Wright and Mike Martin, course in the much warmer place in Arizona. So as Coach Hamilton, Leroy Hamilton came in and said, hey would you like to sub in today? He was more than happy to and of course he has a son on the team as well. But before we do that Leroy, why don't you tell us a little bit about your background and what you're doing right now? Well right now I'm currently coaching at Shabuigan Falls Girls Basketball. I've been there for approximately 16 years. Right now we're six and five young team, but we're very exciting to watch. And yourself? You played a little basketball, right? Yes, I played at Marion College. I also played, I'm from Chicago, and I played at Montgomery High School, which had Donovan McNabb, Antoine Walker, Simeon Rice. So those are some of the guys I played with that played for a ball. Yeah, and probably his highlights was playing with me at Grand School, the teachers and things. Now the other night, Shabuigan South got probably their biggest win of the season, beating Peter, and I'm talking to Coach Risto before the game. One of the things about playing to beer, and that is, oh my god, we're playing to beer, and sometimes you overlook the kids too and you couldn't play with anybody. Right, yeah, I thought for me the key of the game was Shabuigan South's defense. I think it was a step above. And I think that's what really keyed their offense, and that's what I think propelled them to the win. Now tonight, or this afternoon, I keep saying tonight, sorry about that, but today they have to have a bounce back game. You know, you have that big win on Thursday, now you've got to bounce back, and two days later, you've got to get that victory, and forget about Thursday. How was the coach, do you tell your kids yesterday, focusing on? Well, you start off with a light practice, which I think Coach Rain did. And you just get them prepared for it today. I think these kids are excited. They want to win, and I think the excitement and the joy of the game is what's going to take them through the game today. Yeah, now I know you've been in some situations, especially in tournament play and things, where you do have to play back-to-back games. You know, is that kind of like your philosophy to tell your lady, too, when you have to play back-to-backers? Yes, I just said, just relax. I said these girls, they put on the clothes the same way you do, they dress the same way you do, they brush their teeth. They're doing the same thing that you're doing. You just keep it simple. Now, let's talk a little bit. Your son is leading the team in scoring, very senior, which probably makes all things a lot easier for Coach Rain this year. Yeah, I mean, you know, Logan is having a pretty good year. But like I tell him, it's like, you know, it's all meant because of his teammates. It's what his teammates get him involved in. And when he's not involved in the offense, he gets other people involved. I think that's the dynamic of his team, and that's what makes them so good. And I think, you know, once they get it together, they'll be scary down the line. Well, let's hope they get together this afternoon. We'll have the model safety first. They could be dangerous. I think we should call animal control. Animal control? To be safe. Don't worry. It's a new model. You don't have to be perfect to be a perfect parent. There are thousands of teens in foster care who don't need perfection. When you throw away money on wasted electricity, you're throwing away everything you could have bought with it.

And today's athletic trainer from Prevea Sports Medicine is Dave Stecher. Welcome back to Sheboygan's South Acuity Fieldhouse. We're about to have the tip-off. As I mentioned in the opening, I'm Chris Wright, coach Hamilton from Sheboygan Falls is here. And of course, his son is out on the floor. And big win by South the other day to up the record to 4-4. 2-2 in the league, Southwest 5-up, 4-down. 1-3 in league play. But they played the peer pretty tough themselves, losing by just 2. And they lost to North by 3. This is their Southwest 3rd game in three days, Leroy. I wonder if that's going to make a difference. They probably will have some tired legs. But I think these kids are young, and they'll probably persevere. There you see Coach Mike Rank. His son, of course, is on the team this year, number 44. And Southwest is going to get the first shot off. And it's missed, but there's Logan with his first rebound of the night. He's averaging seven rebounds a game. That's Rank. Never afraid to shoot the 3. And he hits it, and he gives South the first lead of the game. That was a good open shot for Rank. Set and he had his feet set. Southwest, a very, very young team. They only have one senior on their squad. South, on the other hand, a very senior-oriented team. But lately, the freshman has been leading them. There's another miss and another rebound for South. But Rank couldn't hold on to it. Feet got tangled. There's a drive, and they're going to get a foul there on Logan Hamilton. That'll be Logan's first foul. Yeah, that's pretty early for him to get a foul. That's something to watch later on in the game. Oh, Simmons got beneath. I hate that when they allow inbound passes, because you kind of know, and you scout, or you're a coach, you know how it is. You scout against those things, and they give up an easy layup like that. Yeah, that sucks, right there. There's a miss there by Hamilton. There's Logan with a nice drive. Puts it off the glass. Good finish, good finish. 5-2, 16-25 in the first half. Southwest, as I mentioned, it's 5-4, just 1-3 in league play. But they've played it on a lot of tough games, real close, even in their losses. And there you see a drive and a basket made by Will Poletski. He's their leading scorer. But just right back himself scoring there. Josh Govek with the basket. Yeah, talking North's coach, he said this Southwest team is pretty fearless. With them being young, they're pretty fearless. 7-4, going to get a travel there. As I mentioned a couple minutes ago, coach, third game in three days, that's a lot of basketball. Not a lot of practices. And I know you mentioned even for South, they had a light practice yesterday. See if their legs are in it for the Trojans. Dylan Martins with the turnover. I was just thinking good things about Dylan. And we were talking about him in a couple minutes, but that wasn't a good turnover. Nice block by Dylan Martins. There's something positive to say there. Yeah, there's one thing about Dylan. He's going to give you 110%. I coach these guys in the summertime. He will give you 110%. I think he's one of those guys that makes South so much better, because when he's not on the floor with that height, he's really their only size guy, where I think your son really likes to be on the perimeter. Not that he doesn't like to mix it up a little bit, but it really makes his game a lot easier. I think he's an important person. And there's that freshman again. Not playing like one, Josh Kovic with another three to give South an early 10-4 lead. Well, South looks like they've got the defensive intensity that you mentioned in the opening against the start here. Coach? Yeah, I think their defense, I guess the peer was outstead. Kovic to rank, not afraid to shoot it, which was a little bit deep there. And dad says, no, you'll have to sit down after that one. That was a little deep. Yeah, it was deep, but sometimes I really hate one pass and a shot in the early offense. Sometimes it's good for it in transition, but in that instance, I really don't have that. Portion to go baseline. There's another miss there by Simmons. And again, Logan Hamilton with that rebound. This time he's going to try to take it to the basket, cut off, well, that time by Pitlecki. Nice drive again by Hamilton, and he scores. Logan's off to a nice start with four early points. Well, I think Logan and Josh Kovic, they really do spearhead a lot of their offense for South, which really helps them. There's a miss again. And Hamilton with the rebound. And South trying to push the ball again. Oh, and they're going to call it Kerry on Logan. I think he got a little excited on that one. Now, you said Logan worked hard this summer as well on his game. What particular did he work on that he wanted to improve? You know, we go to the gym a lot, and I really try to really focus on a lot of the fundamentals with him. A lot of stuff that's forgotten about nowadays. So he wants to have a more rounded basketball game is what you're trying to say? Yeah, yeah, I really do. I think that's what I want his focus to be, and scoring is going to be there. But I really want you to be the pass the ball, shoot, rebound, play defense, which I think his defense really improved. That's thanks to Coach Risto, because he's really worked on him on his defense. Another turnover for Southwest. And normally I keep track of the turnovers and things, but not tonight. But so far, that's about four early turnovers. And I'll tell you, they're calling a lot of stuff out on the perimeter today. We've had this crew, we know these guys pretty well. They're local guys and good officials, but they're not going to let that handshack today and that poking at the ball. No, I mean, the handshack is a point of emphasis this year. So yeah, that's not going to fly. But I think you're going to see a lot of stoppage and play today. Kovac trying to penetrate in there. Now he loses it for a minute, but Sputty gets it back. That's Jared Sputberger. And now we're going to get early self-timeout. Just a 30-second timeout here. Things going pretty well. Nice start for South, Coach. Yeah, I think there is. I think Coach Wayne probably called a timeout because of the lack of days going on. Defense, I'm in the offensive end. And a couple of turnovers. And you see Josh has lost the ball there. So I think he's probably going to try to straighten that out and get them on the same plane. Now, I know he likes to play a lot of players as well. And then kind of keeps his, you know, goes with his token guys later on to keep the legs and things. I wonder if that's because of now the 18-minute halves and things. Do you like the 18-minute halves as opposed to the old quarter form? I actually, I do like it a lot. And I'm glad the WIA went with the three-quarter rule. So that makes it a lot easier for us. And they like to drive and penetrate. Kind of run a weave. Weave action. Split, he got a little deep, but it got knocked out of bounds. Good hands there by Carson Landry. He's just a sophomore for Southwest. Logan's right back in the game. As is Martin's. Evan Optonorth remains in the game. He's number 23. And Jared Golvek, number 23, is also in the game. Golvek, all fake. Here's Optonorth. Nice drive, kisses off the glass. Nice person to have off the bench, is Evan. That is, yes it is. And a senior at that. And I think his dad played on the 86 North basketball championship team for Coach Desertel. Who's in the house tonight? Coach Christensen from Manitowoc and Howard Groves here. I saw Coach Shulman and Coach Rosowski here. Wally Reklitis is here. I mean, we have a bunch of celebrities. Must be too cold outside. So they come in inside and watch the basketball. Another short miss by Southwest. And another push by South. Dylan gets a deep. Logan, nice again. Southwest is really struggling to stop drive penetration. There you're going to watch the replay here by Logan. Nobody stepping up? Nope. And they can get that all the time. I think, you know, what you're going to see here is you're going to see the sophomore team by Southwest. They're going to start getting patient. And as you can see, more turnovers. The South stays disciplined. I mean, this can be a route. Yeah, they have five sophomores on their team. Just 11 on the varsity. I mentioned before, just one senior. And they've been in a lot of basketball games. Like everybody in the league, they're having trouble. They got blown out by Bayport. But they played, they did blow out Notre Dame. It'll be North the other day. And there's a nice drive again by South. Have an opt to North. Watch this drive penetration. Slow to react as a defense by Southwest. It seems like the defense is all sunken in. But, you know, I think what Southwest is not doing it. I don't see a whole bunch of talking out there. And talking is going to be key. Especially on the defensive end on the help side as well. Evan, a 69% free throw shooter. Misses the first free throw. And the second free throw. So we're going to stay at 16-4. So Southwest has played on six minutes of basketball and only has two baskets. And another travel. Yeah, that has to probably be like the, probably just seven to eight turnovers. And we've only played seven minutes, almost seven minutes. Yep. Young basketball teams make mistakes like that. There was a bad turnover that time. Yeah, I think that turnover goes to Logan Hamilton because he stopped his cut and Ethan McLaughlin. That was good that you would have done that. I would have given it to Ethan. Yeah, he said, you know, we tell cutters, don't stop your cut. I mean, that's on you. There's another rebound by Hamilton. That's at least three. We said coming in, he's averaging about seven. Nicely fast to the big guy. Dylan didn't do the bad thing there. He didn't bring it down, brought it up, but he just wasn't really strong with the ball. Right, correct. That's Simmons, Stiber on the drive, over to Pitlesque, and he puts it in. He's their leading scorer at 22 points a game. He's just a sophomore. Wow. Oh, another pass thrown away by South and an easy layup. And just like that, Coach Rank's gonna call that second time out. Yeah, and I think that was part of your smart play on Logan Hamilton, not getting up that second foul. You gotta give up something, you know. I'm gonna ask you one more question while I got a 30 second time out here. I asked Coach Rank at the beginning of your, how was it like to be coaching your son playing? How is it like for you to have your son being a senior? And do you talk about a basketball at home, or are you just kind of not talking about basketball at all when you get home? No, you know, basketball is ongoing in my house. You know, my son picks my brain about certain things, and you know, like I said, I really try to keep him grounded on a lot of stuff. I'm an old school basketball player per se, so I just really try to help him out with certain things and the things that you can see, things that make you better and make your teammates better. 16-8, 10-30 left. Chris Wright along with Coach Hamilton. Leroy Hamilton is glad he came out to help me today, and there's his son putting up a three little shark. Don't like that shot at all. Don't like that shot at all. And they're gonna carry on Simmons, and that's two carries between call tonight, which a lot of days you don't see that called by the officials say it's good that we're, you know, when they do do that, they do make that call. It's kind of gone away a little bit. Yeah, you know, we saw quite a few, I mean, in the peer game as well. I don't remember the peer's best player, but, you know, he got called for one. I thought he was gonna get a technical. So here's Josh Golvec, number three, the freshman he's averaging 15 points a game. Logan's got that same spot there, and this time he will draw a foul. That was a good drive, good up fake. You know, it was a good handoff. And I think, you know, that's become South Forte is getting to the basket and finishing his key or getting drawn at five. That's the 14th fall in Southwest. Good form. Looks good. Just a little short. Logan averaging, excuse me, 65% from the free throw line so far this season. Yeah, he misses too many free throws. I don't know if that's a dad or a coach talking. That's a coach. That's the easiest shot basketball. I know it's the easiest shot basketball. I agree 100% with you. Finally got a free throw, one of four from the free throw line for South so far. 17 to eight, nine, 55 left here on a Saturday afternoon at South Security Fieldhouse, and there's another Simmons poor choice pass. He is also a sophomore, but again. You're looking at probably, I'm thinking 10 turnovers in the first half. Yeah, not giving themselves opportunities to score when you're just giving the other team a chance to. Extra possessions. Yep. Well, it looked like Southwest for their players were in a zone and one was still in man. And again, the zone did not help keep the red wings out of the paint as Logan got there again and he's going to go right back to the free throw line where he was just a couple of seconds ago. And I'll see if he can capitalize. That's in. Downs in two. A two for two trip for Hamilton, sends that lead back to 11. I think you know, if you get out of hand, like I said, if you know, if there's a turnover here, but this is a young team and I know against North, they were down 23 and they came back. Oh, deep penetration and a dump. Oh, they're going to get a follow on Martin's late there. Yeah, you have to learn and let that one go. Yep. And unfortunately again for Dylan, which has been a problem a couple of times this season, it's picks up that second ball early. Yeah, he said, you know, you want to try, if you get a, if you get a pick up a foul, you want to pick it up after your first foul, probably at this point in the game, the nine, 10 point in the game. But yeah, now he has to sit for the rest of the half. And now they're missing another, there's another drive by Hamilton. This one, he missed it. That's how they let, let it go. They be calling everything and then they let, that would go Southwest not happy about that, but they're going to get one here on South, is Southwest to go back to the free throw line. And that's two on Logan now. Oh, I thought they got Caffeina. Yeah, I thought so too. Thought they got Zachary instead. I know coach Desatel always, you know, working with him and things. He always, if you got two fouls, you never played the half. Do you coach the same way or do you, is it based on the situation? It depends. Like if it's my score, I'll leave my fellow out, but I'll put them in there for a minute or two, just to get their legs on, just so they're just not so cold coming to the second half. It depends on the game. Sometimes you just got to leave them in there. Yeah, I agree with you. I, I coached the same way. I thought that nice drive and basket there by Golden. And it, oh, and a technical foul on the sophomore, Ben Letzky. No, it was on a go back. It was on three for self go back. He said something. Oh, really? Yes. Oh, I missed that one. So I was going to get back to the, to the free off, the foul situation. My team is winning. I, you know, I don't mind if my better players are on the bench with two fouls, but if you're losing, you know, you can't fall behind at halftime by 16, 18, 20 with your best players on the bench. So I always kind of went, you know, based on the situation as well. But I know coach Dessertel always says kind of general rule is two fouls and you're done. As we'll see what they do with Martins and Hamilton here for South. And they missed both technical free throw shots. I wonder what Josh said. Yeah. Must have been something that he scored that the referees and the fishers didn't like. And he might be the youngest South High player ever to get a technical foul. He looks like he's about 10 coach. Yes, he does. But he acts or plays like he's 18. Like I said, I thought he played phenomenal. The best game I've seen him play against the pier. He really did. Now we're gonna see how the referees keep this game in check now, because it seems to be heated up just a little bit more. Yeah, well, yeah. Well, you know how it goes. The fans know more than the... Oh, God, yes. It's always tougher on the fans. I think the coaches and players understand how the game's being officiated much more than the fans do. Exactly, exactly. Another miss by Southwest, but an extra chance there on the hustle by the Trojans. You gotta watch it. I think the referee's gonna start calling a little bit closer now. That time they got rank on a foul. That's just his first. This is Carson Landry. He's just a sophomore at Southwest. And he takes a one-of-two trip, but good box out there by Caffeine, but he's gotta turn around and grab that one. There's a kick-out to rank and hit. So, you know, a rank is something hot. There's two three-pointers in the first half, four. And they have to turn over for Southwest with a charge, 33. And he doesn't like that call either. There you see the tail end of it. Mike Rank Jr. with that three-pointer that's his 14th of the season. Two behind your son who leads the team with three-pointers. But I think rank's one of those kids that if he gets hot, you gotta keep feeding on the ball. Like right now that zone's kind of falling off the, just a bad turnover there. Good hustle, but a bad turnover there by Golden. Simmons. He's a travel, they don't call it foul, but he traveled first. And they're going back to the free-throw line again. Both teams gonna be in the bonus from here on out. 740 left before the first half. Well, Southwest has just four baskets. And they've been doing all their work lately at the free-throw line. And that's to their favor, stopping the clock. Yeah, coming back with it, not running, but they're not making a lot of free-throws. I got them three for six so far, coach. Missed another one, but a second opportunity. Stats missed it there. And here comes Sputty with the red wings pushing it out to rank, wide open, Opton North, new rebound there by Landry. Here come the Trojans as he walks, kicks and knocks it away with another turnover. Opton North drives to the basket. They're gonna get a foul, and South's gonna be shooting some free-throws. I think we're gonna score for a long first half. Well, it's starting to drag right now. And I think what you said is they wanted to get a little bit more under control, but that means we're gonna be here a little bit longer. Yeah. He makes two, 24, 26, excuse me, to 13. Favor of South, seven minutes left in the first half, Chris Wright along with coach Leroy Hamilton from Sheboygan Falls Girls Team. There's a first three-pointer by the Trojans. That's Carson Landry. That's the lead to 10. And again, another bad offensive possession by South. Boy, they look so good in the beginning, and now it's getting kind of sloppy for them. Well, I think what they sometimes, what they run into is they fall in love with their first shot, because it's open. It's a good shot. Well, that's what they want you to do is take that quick shot. They're hopefully missing it now. They're back on offense. Being in the bonus, Stuyberg gets a second chance here. 26-17, 26-18, favor of South. Off to North. Glofflin, all outside the circle. Sputty tries to drive. He's in the paint, but he gets it knocked away. Golvec right there to take care of it. Those, the old left-hander caffeine misses. And that should be a travel, but it's not. I think it should be almost automatic when they fall down. There was another foul right there, Ricci. You know, I don't know, you know, we try to teach players, you know, you play defense with your feet, not your hands. And, you know, he got caught with his hand in the kitchen jar right there. If you're coaching Ric, how long do you leave with your two bigs out there? Yeah. On the bench with two fouls when this game was not doing the eight points. Yeah, still an eight point lead for South. I think that's one thing that's in the positive. And to tell you what, South West isn't doing anything as far as offense with baskets, but they are making their hay at the free throw line as six of the last seven trips down, they've basically got, they've been at the free throw line chipping at this lead. And as you mentioned, coach, it's now down to six. See if this possession's a little better for the Red Wings. Golvec to Golvec. South is a little sloppy there. Not sharp. And that would kind of look like a travel, too. They just don't look as sharp. I think they're going to get a foul there. I hope they got Landry, that'll be his first. And it's bonus time now for South. Golvec at the line. See the reach right across his hand. Golvec has seven points. He's a 76% free throw shooter. That'll be higher after that attempt. Oh, that one in the basket didn't want it. What we got here? Third time out, South West. It's going to be a full timeout, Scott. So we're going to take a break. But right now, Sheboygan South leading 27 to 20. It doesn't take a fairy godmother to tell you that the right fit means everything. Especially when it comes to car seats. Always choose one that's the right fit for your child's age and size. Oh, that does make a difference. Remember, they're happily ever afters are in your hands. To find out more, visit safercar.gov. Welcome back to South Security Fieldhouse, where South's leading 27 to 20 late in the second quarter. South not really looking as sharp as they had earlier coach on offense. Well, I think, because, you know, right now they're relying on their bench players, you know, a couple of starters are out and I think, you know, the bench players need to, you know, weather the storm and, you know, know their roles and take care of the ball. 545, left in quarter number two. Good drive by Simmons. Little deep, yep, no backstab is right. Couple of tips there by Tertlesque. They're missed. Another foul. Here's Ray's going to go with the starters Yep, we talked about this earlier. They're going to get Golvik on the foul there and they're Southwest at the free throw line again. This is their 12th and 13th free throw of the half. Wow, and clock stoppage is in their favor, you know, every time they get to the free throw line, you know, they're in a double bonus. Martins, Hamilton, rank all back in, all starters for South now on the floor with Sputty and Golvik. There's Hamilton with another rebound and another missed by Southwest. Very fortunate for South. If you're smart, you get the ball inside. Yep, they're looking, trying to probe. Southwest looks like they're running a man to man, but they really have a collapsing man to man. They really give away the perimeter, collapse and don't allow too much in the paint. Oh, that's a deep three by Golvik, but there's Big Dillon Martins with the second opportunity. Rank looking into Martins, gets it poked away, throws it to Hamilton who's made a lot of business down there and there's another basket for him. He's getting a lot of work down there, close to the paint, a lot of dry penetrations and getting rewarded for it, coach. Yeah, I wonder what's Rick was going to go to his own just to protect the guys at 2,000. He went to a 2-3 zone. Yep, and we saw this couple of times this year, he's done, played his own, especially when people have gotten into follow trouble. Martins with good defense, straight up there and another Hamilton rebound. He's got to have a half a dozen. There's Splitty looking, looking, good skip pass to Rank. It's a good decision by Rank. And Martins, little bit of a push, but gonna man up and stick it in there, using size. That's a good play by Martins, you know, he uses size and you see the impact those two players coming off the bench have and even where Rank with that, they played it for the three and he pulled it for the jump shot. It was a great play. Well, with south up 10, let's see what they do if they decide to take those guys with free throw or follow trouble in there. Good help, defense by Splitty. Splitty split, slid down and that took away the weak side. Rank who's been hot, Bangal, his third three. Yes, he is hot. You know, it was a good outlet pass by Logan and yeah, this is what happens when you've got this team that's meshing like this and you've got the five starters in there and they're playing well now. Yep, and a big run there. Let's see what coach Rank, if he decides to keep the pedal to the metal here and keep those five guys in there. I think a good point you meant was, you know, when coach Rank went to the zone to protect those kids with the fouls and there we saw in the last defensive possession, Splitty sliding down on the weak side there, helping out the big guys and as a unit, the defense was much better. It is, it really is. You can tell that the defensive intensity is up a little bit, you know, again, with a veteran group like this, even though they have one freshman on the court, with a veteran group like this, I think that they could really do some damage and if they keep communicating, you know, the sky's the limit. Yeah, seems to be a lot of balance in the conference. Bayport seems to be a little notch about everybody else. They are just a big, big team, but after that, a lot of these teams could beat anybody and South is one of those teams that's scary. I thought about it the other day. You know, they're, you know, now they're getting healthy and they're meshing a little bit and you know, mentioned something else later on, coach. I still got that question for you. We talked about it at the beginning about playing all their games early if that was a big strength for them because they didn't play over Christmas break and rested their legs where a lot of teams played over the Christmas holiday. There's Hamilton with a three, just a little bit long. Good extra chance here, Govick over to rank, who's hot, oh, the basket didn't want it, but there's Govick again hustling. Unfortunately, no possession, but do you think that was a big key that coach rank playing all his early non-conference games, kind of seeing what he has, didn't play over Christmas and now they're all fresh for this, for the second half of the season? You know, it depends on the coach. Me, I like to play because my kids can't beat each other up in practice. I'd rather see them beat up the other team. So, yeah, I think it's up to the coach, but with this group here, it might work in their favor. Yeah, I just, I know Coach Rank got those out of the way and Southwest played in the Green Bay Classic, which included a lot of the old schools, Notre Dame, Southwest, East and West all got together to play. Southwest came away with two victories in that thing over the Christmas break. They're five and four, one and three in league, South two up, two down. There's Rank again, open, that one doesn't look good and it wasn't, and a rebound there by Stiver. You know, the key thing is right now, South is not fouling, okay? They're not fouling, they're allowing Southwest to dig their own grave with the shots they miss. It's a good wide-open shot. Yeah, split a little short on history point attempt. We roll down to 2-10 left in quarter number two. Now if I was Coach Rank, I'll get these guys out of there. Yep, yep, with the fouls late now. They're a little, getting a little tired, probably not remembering that they have their foul situation. Have a nice 13-point lead. Probably a big nice offensive possession here would be important. Little patience, you can see already, you mentioned a couple extra passes. Logan's gonna go to the free throw line to attempt a couple free throws. And that's what they gotta do, I mean, you know, they're in the bonus. Just drive the basketball, and what you gotta understand is that they're gonna be waiting there to take the charge. Just make sure you pull up on the jump shot, or dish it off to somebody that's open underneath. Jared Govick checks in. Short. And Hamilton misses the first free throw. It's right on, it's just a little short. A little bit more knee bend maybe. But he's not missing left or right, which is always a good thing. Southwest hasn't had a basket for a long, long time. Got some baskets. Oh, see, I just jinxed him. Shouldn't have said anything. That three-pointer, five-pointer left, cuts the deficit to 10. Oh, good idea, but had to get that a little bit higher. That's a turnover. And a miss on the layup by Simmons. I'll tell you what, Govick got pushed. The right call should be South Ball. There is no call. Yes, it's South Ball. I think that's the right call because it was contact game. If you don't want to follow call, then at least put the ball in the right direction. I think it was a good call. Good decision there. Hamilton comes out. They're gonna leave Martins in right now with a 13. He's taking Martins out now. Yep. I think that's the right call. Yep, I didn't see that guy at the bench, Coach. Yeah, I think that's the right call. You don't want to get a charging call. You just don't want a stupid foul here. Yep. Up by 10 with the basketball. Southwest gonna sit in a zone, so South of the lead says, we'll sit back here and wait. Yeah, I would just wait it out, run the clock down. Little patience. There's a little bit of a, they went and switched out a man-to-man kind of. So you can see Southwest basically tries to keep a foot in the lane, which is probably how they're coached. Right. We're down to 40 seconds. Govick trying to get a foul call, using his body, good job. Finally, he's gonna get one. Yeah, it's, you know, I would like to see that as it comes to a jump stop, to just get the ball secure, because they're coming for the double team, but I didn't hear, I can't really see or hear that they were talking about this in double team, coming double team, coming. I think the key is is that when you're holding the ball like that, you gotta communicate and talk with it, so that that blindside double team is coming, your person's aware of it. That's something that's, even if you're not a really good basketball player, and you're just an average basketball player, you can find yourself on the floor helping your teammates, communication. I just think that's so key too, coach. I just was a big talker on the floor. When I played the way I coached, you gotta communicate, call out screens, call for that one to help us come in or watch out behind and... Yeah, as I get older, I don't move as fast as I'm going through, so I'm talking how I'm doing. Come on. There's a three, again, and back to back, three, four, there's a three by Golvik, a little long, two seconds left. There's a half quarter by Southwest, and that's gonna end the half. Well, I think it was a good half of South, they probably didn't wanna give up that three pointer at the end, but I think it was overall a good half. I mean, people are in foul trouble, so... All right, when we return, South's gonna have a nine-point lead entering the second half. I said a bottle was just a bottle. No one would ever notice me. I knew I could be more. That one day, I would make people smile. Nurses brings us together and adds flavor to life. That's why it's important to wash hands, surfaces, and fresh produce.

Welcome back to Sheboygan's South Security Fieldhouse where Sheboygan South leads Southwest 36 to 27 in a game that South pretty much was comfortable at the beginning of the game, then Southwest creep back, but a late run by the Red Wings sent out a lead back to nine. Chris, right along with Coach Leroy Hamilton, Mike Martins in Arizona for the week. Thoughts, Leroy, about that first half? You know, I thought South came out with a little bit of confidence in your early follow-through, which I think gave Southwest a little bit more confidence as well, but you can see that South starters I think is a little bit more superior than Southwest starters. Yeah, I agree with you. A better team so far, it appears to be Southwest. Logan Hamilton led all scores with 11. Govac number three, the freshman had 10. Mike Rank with his three threes, he had nine. Dylan Martins had two, Evan Optenorth had two as well. For Southwest, their leading scorer, Will Pinleski, who leads them in scoring, he had 10 points and Lucas Stiber, he had eight. So there's the first half stuff and South opens up with an empty trip. Yeah, I didn't like the shot selection there. I mean, they're really patient at offense and it's a kind of a bad shot. And there's a miss by Landry. Southwest had a couple of threes late in the first half, but really struggled on offense for them. So they do have 27 points. A lot of it was done at the free throw line. There's a good effort made there by Pinleski, but it wasn't gonna fall. And here come the Red Wings, that split Gerber, over to Martins, but Martins left his post position when Paul came. Not much he could do about that one. Well, what I try to teach the post players is to kind of show your hand up to say you want that pass. Almost like the NFL players do a wide reciever wants to jump ball. Yep. And that's kind of what I tell my post players to do. Hamilton probing over to Govac. Rank who hit those three threes in the first half. Here's Splitty. No, that was a good ball movement right there. You get a little push up. Oh, come on. Here let that happen. Yep, not back on defense. Splitty's more of a glue player, not a big score. He does average six points a game, missed that one there. He hasn't scored yet today, but he's kind of does all the little things. Govac got it, the ball kind of stuck on his hip. And Hamilton, who's basically driven to the basket from the right side all day and they have... Yeah, you know, what I try to tell a local to help was to be on my side is, you know, what's lost, what's the lost part is the intermediate range. You know, it can be a three-pointer or all to the basket. You got to be able to do all three, you know, all three phases of the game on offense. Nice pass to Martin's in the basket. That was a great pass. Yep. Well, the drive penetration made the defense kind of kick up, which left a little gap there. And Dylan was open and a nice feed there by the freshman to the senior. 38-29, 15-30 left. Southwest, excuse me, South gonna remain in that zone. They played that late in the first half and it seemed to work. There's a kick out. I don't think he got away with a couple of travels. Yeah, I was just gonna say a travel there by Pitlowski, but he makes it again, just a sophomore. There you see the travel on the replay as well. Logan looking inside. There's a three-pointer by Hamilton. Good. Logan's not afraid to shoot that three, leads the team in three-pointers. Yeah, you know, I think, you know, the South, he just started, you know, trying to pin on some of their lead players and scores to try to help them out here. Now, you know, what I think young players should need to start learning is try to feed the hot hand. You know, I thought they should have had a rake a little bit more in the first half because you know, hit those three threes. That's a good move. That's a good patience blast with Jerry Splitgerber. Yeah, and Splitty's finally on the board with his first basket. Extend that lead back to a dozen. There's a three-pointer by Simmons in and out and Martin with the rebound and another foul. A lot of fouls being called tonight today, but you gotta adjust to it, long first half. With that, we already have two fouls within the first four minutes here. Now here's the lone senior coming in the game. We saw him in earlier, it's Marcus Roschenbach. He does play football. He's a big kid and he's a baseball player. He can hit the ball a long way, coach. Oh, really? Oh, yes. Yes. But number 44 is their lone senior. And there is a bad turnover, which leads to an easy basket on this end and it leads back down to 10. I never really feel uncomfortable about South leaders like they feel threatened, but they still seem to give up some easy baskets that I wish they wouldn't do. Right, exactly. I just think there's some complacency that comes into play there. Like I tell my girls, you want to take the life out of them. While they're down, take the life out of them. And I'm sure Coach Rank probably said that too to start the second half. Let's have the first five minutes be the best five minutes we have and put these guys out of like they don't belong in our gym. Exactly. Govick penetrating. Hamilton hit a three a minute ago and he hit up another one. So all of a sudden Logan found the range. You know, it's a good job by Jerry Govick fighting them and I think those two could feed off each other, you know? Because they can both score at will. That was just a nice pass and a nice block goal by Martins on Pintlecki. Hamilton feeling it. But he drives to the basket and scores and look for a timeout by Southwest here. No, they're going to, yes they are. Yes they are. Well, that was a good run by South. I mean, they're really showing their punch the way they're able to get the ball inside. It'll be a 30 second timeout so we'll just leave it here. Coach, now that Logan's hit some of those threes, it'll probably create more driving lanes for the team we saw Sputty do that as well but we'll see if Logan can go back to doing that as well. Yeah, I think that right now, you know, when you start hitting threes and you're taking it to the lane, so which one are they going to take up? They have to give it one of them and you know, it's up to the player to recognize what the defense is giving you. A nice start for South here. This is a nice start to the second half of them. I think they, you know, coach rank, whatever said to them, whatever coach rank said to them in a half time would probably fire them up just a little bit. Southwest looking against his zone, they put up a three and they hit one. That was Carson Landry, I believe that's his second three. I was trying to, that's what I was thinking, was it the earlier three? Pass couldn't get quite through there. Now the turnover by South, here comes Southwest down by a dozen, with a dozen minutes left in the ball game and there's a three miss but a rebound by rank. Out to Govec, starters basically playing the entire first six minutes of the second half as Govec drives and gets fouled. His brother, the sixth man of the team, Gere Govec going to come into the game as is Ethan McLaughlin. This is sitting forward. Yep, Zach. Caffeine come in and is, I assume Opkenors will be the other one coming in. And it is. It was all five, it's doing all five. How's he doing five now? He's going to leave Splitty in there. Splitty hits that first free throw. First free throw shot here in the second half. First half I have South 9 of 13, that's unofficial. As soon as I say they've been doing it well, they miss one. Southwest on the other hand, eight of 14 from the free throw line. You know, one thing that's helping South out, I mean, Splitty's looking to be a little bit more aggressive and I think that's the South's benefit to add another dynamic scorer on the floor. It's a good pass. Off to North with right to the basket. I would like to see him take that open shot. Yep, there, that intermediate shot would have been nice. The little pull-up would have been like a six-footer, but when he got too close to contact, the angle of the basket kind of disappeared. Nice swing inside. The Southwest probing, but runs right into Opton North. Now that wasn't a very good offensive possession by Pilewski, their best player. Another drive by South. Good take. Oh, the basket didn't want it. And the big man with the rebound, Russian box. You know, I think South can really run on this team. Run with 44 in there, Oshunbaka, I think his name is. Yep. I think they can really look to run on this team. Right now, with their current lineup. Well, our next ball game will be next Saturday night where South will be traveling, or excuse me, North will be traveling to this field house right here for our annual North South team. I'm sure we'll be on live approximately 5.50 that night. Girls' game at six, boys' game to follow. I see Coach Worth is in the house and I heard he was asking why you're doing this and you should have just told him because I'm better looking than you are coach. Yeah, you know, I work with Coach Worth. I see them work all the time, so we have a blast. Yeah. Oh, that is exact, that is the right call. That is exactly the right call. Well, four fresh South players. And now watch, I'm gonna take the extra step here. This is an easy call. Yep, that's an easy call. One, two, three. That was the right call. Southwest fans don't like it. No, the River fans knows everything. Like I kind of mentioned before, I said players know the game, coaches know the game, and how the game is being officiated and what the fish is there. But the fans seem to always want to know more. And there's another three. It's time to go back. He's up to 13 points. And it's now a 14 point lead. Oh, and a counter. Yeah, he's hit two from that spot now on this half. So that's something to watch. Yep. I think he has three in the game now. Three of those in the game does Carson Landry. You know, they just don't seem to go away, Coach. Nope. I'm not, like I said before, worried or concerned or even threatened yet, but they don't go away. No, I said, you know, they did that to North. You know, North flew that lead. And they were about 23. So they're very capable of being fiery. There's a nice penetration by. You know, one thing I like about that, he finished off two feet. Yep. I believe he's got six points. Up to North. And again, that leads 13. Simmons with an air ball and Hamilton with another rebound. He's got a bunch tonight. Keep saying tonight and this afternoon. Yeah. I'm not used to these games. No, it's like a college game. Played in the afternoon. Another turnover by South. They're going to get Govec on the bump. That'd be just South's second foul of the half. You know, one thing I wish players would do more of that. They feel like they've got to keep hugging them and keep hugging them while they're dribbling. Your run slide, run slide. I think that's the misinterpretation of defense. We want you to move your feet, but you have to, you want to cut them off from getting to where they want to go. Use your body more than your hands. How about your body position? Oh, Simmons with a little push-off and a turnover. Here's Hamilton on the breakaway. Drives to the basket, gets fouled. I think Hamilton got away with a walk there. The Southwest fans think so. I don't think so. Let's see what we've seen on the monitor. No, a little late on the replay there. Regardless, so Logan's going to go back to the free throw line here by Logan as he hits the first. Like I said, his form is right there. It's not left to right. He was a little bit short on a couple of his in the first half. I think he leans back and get his legs involved into it. I'm more critical. I could tell. Kill for two good ones, though. 56-41, nine minutes in the ballgame. I would like to see him put a stranglehold on this and really just take it to him right now, lock him up on defense. They're starting to creep away a little bit. Now it's back up to 15. Get a stop here. Good help, defense by Golbeck and Martins. They're going to get Martins on the foul. He just stood up straight, I think, Coach. I think sometimes when they get those fouls, those blocking fouls, they say once your hands go straight up, but typically when a man goes into you, your hands are going to go down then. So I think that's a double that shows. I thought he was in good help side position. I agree. And the guy came, he's floating into him. So what else is he supposed to do? I agree. I thought he had good help position, too. That's why I said a good step up right before the foul. He did the right thing there. But I think South West is Mr. Freethrow, didn't he? Yes, they did. Should have right that down. And you did a good job of making sure they wouldn't make another one. A lot of contact there. Southwest now, 8 of 16 from the Freethrow line. Just 50%. That's not helping their cause. So I was going to have to get another stop now on the reload after the two Miss Freethrows. Good help again by Martin. Good help by Optinorth, by a good, better basket there. Nothing you could do there as Steber puts that one in. Number 12. He has 12 points to match his number. And we're going to turn over and a foul. And that's going to be the third foul on Lovac. I look at the board. No, I think they caught it on Southwest. They caught it on Southwest. That's twice I missed it. I watched that and I saw Govac. You think it's night time. I thought they were going to go the other way on the frustration as opposed to the push. I thought Govac probably got away with one there. We'll take it though. Yeah, of course. But Gerber, Govac, Rank, Hamilton. Two Govacs out there. Rank, looking for that 4-3, misses. He's right on though. Southwest trying to push. Drive to the basket. Good left hand and in for the sophomore, Petkovsky. He leads them. Petlowski is what it is. With 16, splitting with a three. That's short. Uh-oh, Southwest with another breakout. They got a 3-1. Goes right to the basket. And they're going to call Block on Govac. They're going to count the basket here, Coach. Yeah, I think there's an end one. Yeah, the basket is good. So it's down to a nine-point lead with one free throw coming. I didn't think this was a good decision. I mean, he ran right over at Govac. I think I would have made that extra pass, but he got away with it. Well, a minute ago, it was 56 to 41. I don't like how they let this team hang around right now. Now they have an opportunity to cut it to eight. But he misses again, another missed free throw. This game would be tired if they hit the free throw. So I think it was like nine misses unofficially. Yep. Yep, that's what I got. Got to call that one. Yep, that's a blocking foul. Sixth foul on Southwest. Next time, bonus for South. Seven and a half minutes. South still up by nine. Excuse me, Southwest hasn't been really close since late in the first half when they were within six at 27 to 21. Up to North. Govac penetrating, kick, splitty, push. Nice drive. Better patience, I think, by Southwest. The nine-point lead. And the basketball. Good decision there by Splitty to be low. Coach Rank likes it as well. Not close to guarded, but he drives, tries to kick it over to Marms, but he turns it over. South's going to have to, yep. He's stuttered step when he started to drive. He's going to say, South's going to have to clean up those turnovers if they're going to keep this winning streak going. Yes, they are. Coach Rank is going back to Logan Hamilton at the bench. And just like late in the first half, Southwest is at the free throw line. Again, they just keep missing. I have four misses now for him. Right now, Southwest is their own enemy right now. That's going to be long. I knew that was long when he let it go. He was trying to over and copy, say, Coach. Eight of 19 for Splitty. Wide open as Optinorth. Great pass there by Logan, but can't finish. But he did get the, draw the follow. One thing I wish more players would do is, I tell my players when they feel rushed, they go a pump fake, a pump fake. That's such a lost, another lost art. If he would have a nice little pump fake there, he would have got, I think he would have made that. Now it turns out to be a good foul as Evan missed that first one. Six free senior, 69% from the free throw line this season. Got the second one to go though, which is important because it puts it back to a double digit lead. Six and a half minutes left on a Saturday afternoon at the Schwoigen QT Field House. Chris Wright along with Coach Leroy Hamilton, Marty's in Arizona, and another opportunity at the free throw line for Southwest, which I guess that the way it's going is not a bad thing for South because they can't make any. Oh, they're going to call it before he shot it up there so they have to take it out of bounds. Next time Southwest will be in the bonus as South is now, that's just a bad pass and a good turnover for South. Govick with a dip see and a do and he gets it to go. That was a creative shot. That's right. I don't think we coach that. No, you don't coach that. That's all talent right there. Here's a three pointer by Simmons and he finally gets on the ball. 59-50, third three pointer made by Southwest in the second half and there's a bump. South is at the free throw line. That's just bad defense. You know, when you're leaning over, that's easy for an official. When you're leaning at the player like he did there, that's just bad defense. It's easy for an official to call that. Yes, it's easy. I mean, any kind of reaching, slapping, it's just such an easy call. Even if you don't follow him, it looks like a foul. You know, move your feet. Yeah, stay in front. No, I think Oppenorth has had a good game off the bench. He has eight points and I think that's a solid when you get a person off the bench going eight points. I've always said that one strength that South definitely has is they're deep. Yes. They play nine kids and they all can contribute and they can all help, which, especially in these longer games than the old system, I think that definitely benefits them. Nice drive penetration on the basket. Just went right through the middle of the South Zone at a time and it's still a nine-point lead, though, for South, rolling under 5-15 in the ballgame. Goalback with a three. Another country heard from. I only have him for six threes now in the season, but that was a big one. Yeah, I would like to, you know, I think the South is still in the two-three zone. Yeah, but I heard communication at a time when Landry had the ball, their three-point shooter, to make sure that they get out on him quickly. There's a three-intempt and a big rebound attempt by up to north, but he's going to be following. Guess where he's going? To the free throw line where he just hit two. Yep, and you added he has nine points as a chance to get to double figures. Hamilton leads South with 19. You know, like I said, again, I got to commend what the coaching staff has done with the defense. I say, you know, you see a whole different mentality as you know, since Risto took over the defense, I think it's more of a pressure mentality that they really want the ball. And that was a tremendous asset to the coaching staff. And a two for two trip for South. They're up 66 to 52. Simmons with a miss. Goalback with another rebound. It's getting awful late for the Trojans now. They're going to have a tough week if they lose this one. They'll be 0-3 on the week. South trying to pick up two wins. And uh-oh. Josh Govec hobbled a little bit on that. Hopefully he'll fight right through that. We got a little knee in the little thigh area. Split Gerber told him just get up to the line to make the free throws, kid. Hey, this is no time to play hurt. All right, we're going to have a full time out by South. With that, we're going to take a break, Scott. It's 67-52. We'll be back in a moment. You don't have to be perfect to be a perfect parent. There are thousands of children in foster care who will take you just. Welcome back to South High School, where we are. We are live. We're on right now out there. We're South League, 67 to 52. On a Saturday afternoon makeup game, we had a snow game back in December where basically the entire state on Friday night was shut down. So, decided to play this in the afternoon. It was nice with the Green Bay Packers to make sure they would play on Sunday. So we wouldn't be interfered as well. So I said our next broadcast will be next Saturday night where North will travel to South in the annual North-South game. Which should be a good one. Should be a good one. See, he had to pull Josh out. He's hobbled. Yeah, he's hobbled a little bit. I think he's got a nice little trolley horse in there. 68-52. And Southwest can't hold the ball very often if they intend to win this game. And again, he's got to be a good player, coach. Yeah, he is. He's got 22 points right at his average. Just a sophomore. Got to get a little bigger, a little stronger. You know, I think South is trying to dribble through this press. And I like to pass through a press. Yep. You know, ball fake pass. You know, they're missing some open people down the floor. And, you know, I would like to see them pass the ball up. Richard just informed me that this game, even though it's live, will be on Tuesday at 7, Wednesday at 2 p.m. and Friday at 7 o'clock as well. So three nice re-broadgrass. And again, I want to thank Leroy Hamilton for coming in and filling in. I knew when I saw you, you'd do it, though. I was hoping. I thought about you all morning, by the way. I hope that's not a scary thought. No, that's not a scary thought. I had a lot of fun. Three and a half minutes left. And that's something South doesn't want to do, is turn it over with a nice lead. Give him the basket. That's all right. You're still up 13 with three minutes left. A lot of time left in the game. Yeah, 33 has 24 points from Southwest. Yep. Betlesque leading score, just a sophomore. We say he came in averaging 22 points the game. Yeah, like I said, again, I'm not a hard opponent. They're dribbling too much, you know, up on this press, and the eyes are down when they're dribbling. So therefore, you can't see what's in front of you. You're luckily there, you know, Southwest is in foul trouble. I'll tell you what, South's been pretty good at the free throw line. Just two misses they got us in the half. And now South's going to call time out. That's huge. All right, we'll take a quick break. Maybe our last break of the day. South up, 7156. They told me a bottle couldn't dream that I would never become a superhero. Just to come back in a new disguise and be the hero that I've always wanted to be. Welcome back to South High School, where South leads 71 to 56. And they're doing an awesome job at the free throw line. 12 of 14 here in the second half. 21 of 27 in the game. Now that's unofficial, but they've been real clutch to keep this lead here, which really hasn't been threatened much once the big start to the second half, coach. I think, you know, the starters came in and did what they were supposed to do in that second half and really took control of the game. Josh, go back to not in the game right now. He's a little banged up on his foot, so his brother jared in there. Otherwise, the other four starters are in there, Sputty, Rank, Martins, and Hamilton. And that's not a good follow. I don't know who you got. You know me, I can't stand falling jump shooters. No, that's a pet peeve of mine. Yeah, I would love to see the replay of that. You don't think you got him there? I don't know if it wasn't, he touched it with the feather. Southwest, on the other hand, not been good at the free throw line. Watch it here. Oh, oh, you might be right there. I don't know. Josh, go back ready to go back in the game. That's the first free throw I have made by Southwest in the second half. Wow, again, I may have missed some. But I have a one for seven. Wow, one for seven. And like I said, they're free throws. I got that one. See, I popped that one in from under three minutes and another foul. It's been a long game, coach. It has been a long, long game. Lots of fouls, lots of free throws. I have to go to my grandma's coach after this. She's 94, having us to her house. And so me, I'm just going to relax this afternoon and then we've got to do some stats for my last next game. And well, I hope my grandma has some good hors d'oeuvres and stuff to eat. You know, that's I've been count on that. That had to ate it. Nothing wrong with that. Yeah. Football is on, too. Yep. My grandma's a big fan of all sports. She watches football and basketball. Loves the Brewers in the summer and watches the Badgers. If she remembers, she does watch our telecasts and things. I don't know if she remembers that I had to come here before going over there, but. So are you rooting for the Packers of the Giants tomorrow? Well, of course I'm a big Packer fan. But you're a big Bear fan, like Marty, I know. I know you would, when we used to play buckets together, you and Marty would cling together and always have to be on the same team. Except there was never enough basketballs for the two of you because you both shot too much. I miss those days playing with you guys. I miss those days. I know that sometimes they still play out at Kohler and Usberg a little bit, but it's been two years since I've played and I miss that. 74-58, favor of South. And again, yep, good defense by Rank here. Give up the two. And as it turned out, Howard missed the easy basket. Southwest in a, you know, press, zone press, 2-2-1. Govek's wide open, so he's gonna shoot it and hit it. Why not? His ninth point. Govek and Hamilton, the younger Hamilton, excuse me, the younger Govek with 19 and Govek with nine, Rank with nine. Of course we talked, I believe, up to north two, he's got 10 today, so good performance by a lot of players, close to almost five guys, gonna be in double figures for South. And 77 points and there's still two minutes left. And it wasn't like they seemed like they had a barrage of scoring either, it was just kind of a workman-like job by South today. Yeah, you know, I think it was a lot of balance scoring. When they're playing like this, it's tough to beat. I mean, it's really, really tough to beat. They got to remind your son not to drive into the corner over there. Well, you know, yeah. That's the no-no spot. Yeah, that is a no-no spot. Yeah, because you're pinned up against the half-court line and then your triple team there and Coach Rank bailed them out there. Yeah, with the time out. I'm gonna remind you that your son went to the wrong spot there. You should have crossover dribbled and brought it back to the middle of the floor. I think I'm meant to take his car away from fucking Mary. So when do you play again, Coach? Well, we play last night and we don't play the next Thursday. Okay, couple days to practice then. Oh, yes, yes, we got a nice little hole. Coaches love practice. I mean, kids love the games, coaches love the practices. You got it, you got it. I know, I did basketball for 11 seasons, coached as a talent here at Varsity and still do baseball. And people ask, why do you like it? Well, I love the practices. The games, of course, are enjoyable. I love the competition and the competing. But I like the coaching part. I like in the gym part and of course the relationship with the players too. Exactly, exactly. But I love practice. I enjoy it. Be strong with the basketball. Logan pushes it up and scores. Good, finish off two feet. Five new players coming in for South. Yeah, I think that's a really good move by Coach... Oh, yeah, player kids. Yeah, player kids, Coach Ray. I think that's a classy move right there. Trevor Ladwig is out of luck, though. He has to hope that Logan makes the free throw. Well, the way Logan shoots is, I don't know. It's a 50-50 chance. Oh, no, he's been pretty good today, especially in the second half, he's converted his free throws. Missed a couple in the first half. That one's right on. And he's going to finish today with 22 points. Just a little bit above his average. 20... I got him at 20.4 points for game coming in. See, we got someone who I really like, Jared Henderson, the sophomore. I like the way he plays. He's number 11 in the ballgame. Jacob Case, number two is in the game, along with McLaughlin. We've seen earlier, and Ladwig, we mentioned also. He had to wait. Well, you got Caffeine in there? Yep. Caffeine, he played earlier a little bit today, and welcome to the game, Jared Henderson, because Southwest just brought in Marcus Rauschenbach to stand in the paint. Bang around with you a little bit. That's a big key. He was a big force on the football team. When we had him in the fall. And there's a long rainbow three by Caffeine. Yeah, he might hear about that from Cole actually. Oh no, not under two minutes. There's a new player in. Another, we don't have him on the roster, so he must have been off to JV. I think Caleb Keener today was sick, and I think their leading score, or second leading score, Cole Boucher also didn't play today, so Southwest was a little shorthanded. I don't remember seeing Lushe out there at all, so they brought up a couple of sophomores too. Yeah, I think this team is going to be reckoned with, and you've got sophomores playing already at the varsity level. I think this next year, you know. Yeah, they'll be a little better, a little bit more experienced, a little bigger. Like I said, they've played with a lot of teams. They beat Notre Dame by 19, who the other day surprised North at North, but they lost by just three at North. They lost by Depeer by just two, but today, I think South had it pretty good for them today that things were going pretty well. I'm just wondering if Jesuit Gerber's going to take a picture of you in your... That'll be the best thing on this camera. Again, today, I thought South from the get-go pretty much in control. A little short run by Southwest to cut the lead to six, but when they came out in the second half, a quick start put this game pretty much away. Yeah, like I said, they played with some... I think this team is trying to play with a lot of heart. Well, they had a 13-4 run to start the second half, and that was too much for Southwest to get it close. Got down to nine or 10, but again, as I've been saying all day, I never felt like there was any worry that there was going to be a loss today. And again, thanks for coming up. I appreciate it. Any time you need help, I'll do this, I like it. Well, I had other people I tried to get a hold of, and then being a Saturday was kind of complicated. When it did work out this morning, I'm serious, you were who I thought about, and I was waiting for you to walk through the door, and I knew, I was hoping you'd do it. There, I like that kid. He's going to be a player when these seniors go. Watch for Jared Henderson to be an impact player years to come, number 11. Well, coach, I'm going to run down and do some interviews right after the game, and any final thoughts for you about how everything went today? Well, hey, listen, I thought this was a good win for South. Keep that Woody Street going, and hopefully we'll keep it going next week. Yeah, have a good week next week. Short week for South Wistwick playing a couple of games. They are going to now improve on their season. They are now five and four, three and two in the conference, and again, it's getting all bundled up, so be interested and see as it progresses through January and February, how this conference race turns out, and on any given day, I think South can beat anyone. I do too, they beat Bay Point last year. Yep, and a miss there, so. Well, thanks for coming in, coach. I'm going to run down, and folks, when we return, hopefully we'll have a couple of victorious red wings with me.

I got through high school without a car, a phone, or a computer. No college degree, though. Not yet, but life's taught me a lot, and I'm ready for more. Well, you're not the typical kind of candidate that I hire, but you are exactly what I'm looking for. Your company could be missing out on the candidates it needs most. Learn how to find a great pool of untouched talent at grads. Todd's a great guy. I mean, look at him, sweetheart. How totally selfish and untodd-like of you. These are really good. You're surprised. Practice makes perfect. You don't have to be perfect to be a perfect parent. There are thousands of teens in foster care who don't need perfect... Hey, we're back here with a couple of happy red wings. Jared, let's start with you a little bit. Hey, couple big victories this week. It's got to be nice coming after Christmas break. Yeah, good victories. Good team wins. We're clicking on all cylinders, and it just felt good to get two solid wins. Now, you guys played a lot of games early in the year where you got all your nonconversing and you had kind of the Christmas break time off. You think that was a benefit for you guys? Get your legs back? Or tell us a little bit about your Christmas vacation with basketball and things. It was a well-needed break. I mean, we were kind of dinged up and well-needed break, and we came back. We bonded over Christmas break, and I think it helped. Now, you guys beat Southwest today. You didn't win the state championship. You got a pretty good group of guys here. Oh, yeah, great group of guys. You've been playing all together for 12 years, and it's just fun. And how's your kid brother hanging on with you guys? He's fun. He's a little energizer bunny, and it's nice to have him around. He's stepped up his game, and I think he's proved that he can play at our level. We interviewed him in the last game. We said he doesn't drive the bus, so does he. No. Dylan, it's always nice when you're out on the floor. I think that helps the rest of the team to have that big fellow out there and relieve so much pressure for everybody else. I tell you, it's been a big impact and having a nice year. Thank you. I've been working hard for a lot of work in and over the off season, just trying to make sure I can do what I can to help the team. So being really the biggest guy in the team and stuff, you're playing, there's some big guys in this league and stuff like that. You've got to match up on week for week. You like that little challenge? Oh, yeah. I love taking on the challenge, like a plomb or pretty much anyone that can come in the league. Don't underestimate anyone coming into Southwest. I kind of expected some strong guys, and I saw it and just went on to keep working on it. Now, Divans is a big thing and I saw Coach Ristow out there. God, I hate playing the zone. Divans are out there, but you kind of mix things up there, trying out little different zones and little man to man and kind of mix it up and mix things up. Divans important for you guys? Oh, yeah. Divans is a big emphasis for us. We practice it every single day. Sometimes for 30 minutes or more in practice. We always just try to make sure that we are prepared for the next game. All right. Congratulations to that. Got your three-point shot going a little bit there. Hit those three threes in the first half to help things. Kind of gotten a little cog, so it was nice to hit those threes, huh? Yeah, definitely. Coming off my broken wrist last year, it took a little bit of time to get my shot back, but all of us put a lot of work into off-season. Coach Davis coming over here really helped that, and I got my three-point shot back and it feels good. He got one today, too. Yeah, he did. It was nice causing getting that three-point shot in there. Now, the offense, you know, today, I thought you guys started fast in the first half, started fast in the second half. Offensive flow really worked well, which helped contribute today. Yeah. I mean, I love our new Dribble Drive offense. Coaches really let us do whatever we want with the offense as long as we're moving. I mean, we got people who can score the ball on the team, so it's really nice having that freedom. And with that, too, you allow... I kind of said this earlier in the season when we did some of your earlier games. Anybody can shoot. You know, there's no restriction who can't shoot, which would be nice for all the guys to play, too. Yeah, it really is. I mean, you might even see a three from this guy this year. Coach Rank doesn't want to hear that. Coach Rank, we will. If you guys are up, it's okay with that. I'll ask you one quick thing. How do you like playing for your dad? I mean, I've been waiting my whole life to play high school basketball with my dad. He kind of helped coach when I was little and then took some time off. I mean, we've been waiting for this moment for a while. Hopefully, we can make a run at it this year. And I think you guys are really starting to play really well. And I'd be scared to play you guys, but it's nice to see you guys chill and it's been fun. Hey! Congratulations to Sheboygan South today. They picked up a big victory today, 84 to 65. Our next broadcast will be next Saturday, where these gentlemen will be taking on the North Siders and things, so we'll be here at about 10 to 6 for the girls' game, followed by the boys' game as well. For my partner today, who was Leroy Hamilton, I don't know if you guys do that, but we had Logan's dad up there. I appreciate that because Marty was gone. And for the crew, that'll be it. We'll see you next Saturday night, right back in this gym.
