 We're at Lutheran High School where tonight the Crusaders take on conference rival Cedar Grove. Hello, everybody My name is Mike Martin joining me as a coach Chris Wright. Chris coming in tonight Lutheran had a great win over Usberg. Let's talk about that first. Wow They you know, they've been preparing for a victory like that. They got their work over at Christmas You know break plain Racine Lutheran in Cuba City getting set for that rematch at Usberg and to go down there and break That 30 game conference winning streak of Usberg It's just got to be a rewarding thing for both shaboy and Lutheran and the whole team I mean, you know Sam Decker said yeah, I've played eight times It took me to beat those guys and they got that that big victory and you know that now puts them in first place in the league And they just got to take care of business now. They lost a couple games over a Christmas break But since that time they're undefeated. They've won five in a row Yeah, they have won five in a row They flipped the schedule now and tonight at Cedar Grove Cedar Grove's a basketball team that really hasn't had any quality wins They're kind of looking for that quality win They did you know play Usberg pretty close a couple weeks ago But then you play teams like Cole or you win by 10 and they did get a nice victory a couple weeks ago against St. Lawrence Seminary but they're still looking for that quality wins So I'm interested to see what the Rockets have one of the things I think Cedar Grove has going for them Is they're very senior laden and they're balanced in their scoring. Yeah, I was looking at that too Marty I mean they do get contributions from a lot of guys and you know, they're athletic I mean this is a school that has up and having a traditional football program and the last few years or basketball program It's been pretty good too, but this year. They're just a tad bit down So I'm interested to see what they can do tonight One of the things when we talk about Lutheran in the past we all say well They got to find somebody to compliment Sam on the scoring end and they've got somebody this year Yeah, Tyler's Astros really stepped up and I thought a couple weeks ago We did that Christian game Marty when I interviewed Sam one of the things he said is you know We're getting better every week and we're constantly looking for people to help out a little bit Well early in the year it was just helping out a little bit But now Tyler's Astros really get into his own and you know He just lit up Usberg last week and over Christmas break and you know as the year gets better though Softmores that you know, we're just young softmores starting the season are now being old softmores and and really come tournament time I think that's gonna help Lutheran. I think bringing up Juris's name is important too because he's a really a good three-point threat You know when they start to say again on Sam or any of the other guys that play inside You know leave him open there could be dangerous. Yeah, and they're gonna have to you know Obviously, that's what a lot of teams we've seen do all years They really clog up that middle and you know Astros hit some of those and Zersus hit some of those so you know getting contribution some different things It's something that you know Lutheran's gonna have to have like I said to get to the tournament and to hold on to this conference title One of the things that we saw in that Christian game was they put a lot of pressure on the Christian guards I don't know if they can get away with it tonight, but certainly paid dividends over at Christian Hopefully they can do that again tonight. Yeah, and I think that's something coach Decker also said that You know defense is something that he's always preached a little bit and Sam mentioned that in the interview as well He said you know our defense is getting better and you know when they press your teams You know and they got some pretty good size and Rockets got some pretty good size too So it's gonna kind of equal out a little bit, but you know obviously guard plays always important All right with that we're gonna step out and we come back We'll have the starting line-ups and the tip-off for tonight's game on my own problems to worry about those people in Africa Don't want to help themselves. What's the point? Where's the proof? Actually smart programs are saving lives in just 10 years over 15 million more kids are alive all Less than 1% of the total leave of budget. How's that proof and today? There are new vaccines that could save millions of more kids go to 1.org and join the movie not ask for your money We're asking for your vote.

They're getting ready to introduce the starting line-ups for tonight's game Cedar Grove comes in seven and six four and five in conference Travis Obank is the starter Josh Ruppel he's starting tonight Jonathan Herzog Number 22 Kyle cursed and number 34 Lucas caught all four of those young men are seniors We've mentioned in our opening that they're very senior laden team and that's certainly the case You look at the starting lineup and now for the crusaders Luther in high school coached by Todd Decker Lutheran comes in 11 and 3 8 and 1 in conference Beating Loosburg the other night 70 67 to 61 Nick Redeker Number 35 he's a senior Number 32 Tyler's Astros a sophomore. We had mentioned. He is a second leading scorer team averaging 16.2 points per game Phil Leipholm another sophomore starting He's averaging a little over five a game Josh Wheeler a senior Wheeler averaging 7.6 points per game and then number one big Sam Decker Decker averaging a state leading 31 points per game Cedar Grove is coached by Jim Minin and familiar assistant over on that bench Chris Freddie Forsterling Fred did some coaching over at the north and south and He's out in Cedar Grove very good basketball coach Marty In JV action earlier tonight Luther in high school Easily won over the Cedar Grove Rockets our officials tonight. There's a Todd Decker and Mike Theobald and Nick Verhage Steve Steiner Russ Miller tossing it up at center court and Ben Rank are the officials tonight. I don't know why he jumped the ball Chris He was gonna get the tip anyway And the criticism starts Cedar Grove and a man-to-man defense Decker has it on top Over disaster Look like they could have got it inside but chose not to Redeker has it good feet inside Decker for an easy two Coming in at 73 points the game They're not gonna get there at taking a minute off the clock But good patience by Luther and and when you can get a one-foot shot. I think we'll take that. Oh, yeah Curse has it on the wing over to Herzegh a Good strip by Zastro, but Cedar Grove gets it back Wild shot Attempted by Obank is no good Decker on the bust out slams at home For to nothing Luther is that cherry picking Not at this level When you're old and you do it that's another thing at this level. No A ball goes out of bounds off the hands of Josh Ruppel Marty you mentioned a good balance scoring, you know, 11 points 11 points 10 points 8.6 points You went further down the list. I got two 11's attendant in eight and I stopped Lob pass way off the mark good idea Redeker was setting the back screen on that but pass was off the mark Would have been a very easy to yeah, you work on that You know that play call and then got the easy opportunity and just a little too much air Luther and also playing a man-to-man defense starting off that shot was attempted by Obank He couldn't get it in and Decker got the rebound Shot from the corner is good by Wheeler There's another guy. We didn't mention in the opening Josh Wheeler averaging eight points a game He can hit those threes as we saw it there last time we were here. I think he had three or four Marty We were one of the three seniors that starts for a Luther Reddicker comes up with the loose ball and then Zaster almost had it tipped away And then he did get it tipped away lazy throw there Play-up attempt is good by cursed and Cedar Grove is on the board John Herzog guarding Decker Drawing a lot of attention nice bounce pass pass inside. Yes, you're right Reddicker shot Reddicker shot was off the mark. Yeah, he could have a little taken a little more time and squared himself up He had good position there Shot from the wing is no good, but they come away with the loose ball Ruppel in the right place at the right time Obank three-point attempt is good He's their leading scorer 11 and a half Cedar Grove 12 and 12 a year ago at the 500 mark about this year to the left-handed Zastrow pops one in the break of 5-point run 9 to 5 Lutheran on top Decker with a block Zastrow going hard to the basket Around and out, but he did draw the fall. It looked like it could have gone either way at Chris. Yeah, I agree Well when these teams met way back in December 2nd, there's a 77 55 victory for Sheboygan Lutheran As Marty mentioned Lutheran comes in 11 and 3 8 1 in the league their ranked number 10 in division 5 There's three losses are all to rank opponents. We're seeing Lutheran Number one in division 5. You want to tell mr. Minot the movies in my way? Cuba City is ranked number two in division 2 and Usberg ranked 10th in division 3 Zastrow hits one out of two. It's 10 to 5 Obank on the cut-through, but a reach in by Zastrow and he commits the fall Well, I agree with the foul, but there's no way he was shooting He just caught the ball and got slapped, but they're gonna say two shots here Travis Obank on the line shooting a pair Get a good shot there at Travis Eric Weasman giving you that shot Richard Bartson giving you that shot right there He's got Maloff in the truck spinning the dials Chris Wright giving you the color and I'm the play-by-play guy all the way back from Arizona. How Marty? Yeah Arms are tight. It was a long flight Decker Fouled on the way through That kid only made one out of two on Chris But he made both free throws Three and a five. Nope one out of two not a shooting falls. I'm gonna fall called in the lane fall goes on Nick Reddick or I called a moving string there. I don't agree with that either I Guess I don't agree with much. I look like Decker just came up the lane Yeah, Reddick or just went there and being a little bigger Set a screen. Now, this isn't freshman basketball. This is the varsity basketball. I didn't see any full-arm push or shove or anything but Said it was a moving screen first. He says a moving screen and he says an elbow throw so Who knows either way Laction going on inside between Cotton Reddick her Zaster with the good hands and that falls gonna go on Reddick her It'll be his second. Yeah, get that first one in that time Good hustle by Luther trying to get the loose ball, but that opened up the lane there For her Zog and then Reddick her had to fall in there It's interesting. You know, we're very fortunate. We sit right court side and we're right next to the use brick Whisper exceed your Grove bench all the same down there, right? Whisper exceed your Grove anyway, and then you can hear the coaches over on the Lutheran side And if you give the referees an earful, don't they Chris? Yeah, they do And they ate all the Sun Marty. Yeah, you're right there another pass off the mark And Chris right with a good save had a good saving warm-ups to Chris by the way Hey, there's Chris and Mike look at those guys Happy to be here and the house is full of people. We know Denny Moyers here and Coach Schumann's here Decker down the lane Jimmy Schwalbe's in the house. We're down the baseline. I should say but yeah Yeah, Timmy Moyers here when Schwalbe gonna show up at basketball More shots for you Marty It's a good point nice move. Whoa, what a spin move that was That look sharp first Six foot senior try to stop me now a nice crossover there by Zastrow two good moves on both ends of the floor there Good hesitation there by Zastrow And just drove to the basket Zastrow having his troubles at the line. It was one for two on the first trip Missed the first one that other trip and he's gonna have to make this one to 50% from the line crawl that one in 13 to 10 Two minutes left in the first quarter Cedar Grove Hanging right in there Yeah, I was just thinking that Marty Look like it was gonna be a blowout They jumped out Luther did to a seven-nothing lead and then Cedar Grove came up with Five straight good pressure on the shot that time by Hasse Luther has it good shot that time by Jerse So I'm a three-pointer. Nope and some people forget. He's just a freshman herzog Forcing it inside got it up and in off against Hasse You know he used his strength there and body and just attacked The defender there Decker off the glass and in again Having a nice first quarter eight points so far Eight out of the 17. It's 17 to 12 under a minute Luther and in a zone now Chris. What's up? They use this a little bit down at Christmas time Remember that 20 seconds left a good help defense by Zastrow Ball tipped out of bounds Josh Ruple coming back in Lucas Cot coming out Spencer Bars came in while we weren't looking He's number three Shot is blocked Decker's got it nice bounce past the Zastrow for two Good unselfishness there ball stolen away Shot at the buzzer is no good by Jers But a little flurry there at the end by Luther and they end the quarter with a 19 to 12 lead Want to help make it easy on everyone then cash the most effective form of disaster relief CID I dot org Hey back at Luther in high school the Crusaders lead by seven it's 19 to 12 But Cedar Grove hung in there Chris. I mean I was impressed they played the pretty good first quarter basketball Considering Luther and shooting 80% from the floor. You're right. That'd be down just seven exactly Good cut by Obank Shot is no good, but her dog high above the crowd to get the rebound, but he loses it Jers gives it off to Decker who almost had it taken away Decker down the baseline scores again. That's 10 for him He leads the state in scoring At 31 a game led the state in scoring a year ago Inside feed the shot is up, but no good by John Herzog and then there's a whistle Second leading scorer in the state is Joel Hesch. He's from Boston. He's a see a junior. He's at 26 points and Dakota who's going to North Carolina is third in scoring. He's at Menominee Falls. He is a senior. He's at 26 So Sam at 30 point 31 Looked good looking good to be take that title again Well the discussion was no I didn't I thought I said something to do with the clock, but They're synced up Herzog missed his first free throw attempt Decker picked up that last foul by the way Sure, I thought they called on Hess Yep, that's what they did now. It's up on the board Nice pass. Yeah, Decker not to be denied Flushes it Luther not by 10 That was just a nice seal by Decker and a great bounce pass No hesitation on that pass either. No, it's a couple good ones I thought the one by Sam at the end of the first quarter was a dandy because he could have just taken it himself and slammed it home But he gave it up and got it to his teammate Yep. Oh, no weak side help for Luther that time in there trouble. I watched Zastrow He was very lazy on the cut through he didn't yeah try to deny or get in front of his guy Just let him go where he wanted just this shot was blocked and then we get a foul on Jacob Well, I like the fact that he went to the hole. Obviously the Scott reporters. He's a three-point shooter We've seen him now underneath a little bit. There's nothing wrong with that here. You're gonna see the flush Boom high percentage there Yep, a little bit of a bust out here bear bars had it got it up to her Zag who put it up and in Had a good job of getting back that time by the Crusaders Has gone hard to the hoop got this. Oh, they're gonna call the fall on the floor. No shot All goes on bars. I Think they tried to create a clear out for Sam Decker, but I think you're right but remember that playground and Jacob Jacob went the wrong way on the Play and if you know if he's covered I'm sure he's gonna get some type of shot coming on the opposite side not on the same side good pressure D by Zastrow Yeah Outside shot is no good by Ruppel Decker with the rebound long lead feed is out of bounds trying to get Wheeler on the deep Pass but a little too much. That's three bad passes now for Luther see a girl six of 15 from the floor Have to shoot a little better if you're gonna Win in this house tonight. We're only down five Luther Slowed down a little bit. That's off Zastrow shod yeah We had a good line on that didn't think that was a good decision either Juris picks up another fall his second coming back in as a fill life on 23 to 17 5 10 remaining until halftime It's been Lutheran in the lead the entire game the Crusaders had a seven-point lead at the end of one Good drive through the basket Shot no good the first one put back is up and good by her Zog, but I'll tell you cursed Is a benefit in there? Yeah tipping balls away Attacking a little bit. It's a real nice job. It's now 23 to 19 30 second time out by Luther. Yeah, I wake the boys up a little bit You can't just scroll through victories He brought up a good point Chris earlier in the quarter when I think it was hers I Took his man right down the baseline and just muscle them up and in and as long as They don't get Luther net is doesn't provide help for some of those guys underneath It's gonna be like that. They got to play smarter. I think it brought up a really good point They got to play a lot harder With music tonight. Yep. See the growths been up and down there Win one lose one win three lose two win one lose three win two So they're on the upper Part of the consistent part is there inconsistent Good trap on triple teamed Decker. Oh my stop that That's the way to attack a trap is to Find the open mine and take it to the rack And that's what he did 14 points I've been having a tough time against Zastrow, but the pumping in the long one was bars Zavir needs six points a game Get half of it right there bad pass. It's filled by a bank Takes it in couldn't get it, but he's fouled That's Hess's second foul and the follows are starting to mount on Luther net's number seven And that means two free throws plus bonus for the Rockets Obank makes the first free throw Couldn't get the second one 25-23 Decker from 14 tops it in He's been a man out there Herzog has it stolen away from Zastrow. He's taking it at the big man and leaves it up and in Every time that the Rockets get a little close Back come the Crusaders and it's a good thing Isn't that the truth? He'd inside to Obank Again, not good defense by Zastrow Obank three for eight tonight three pointer by Decker His first three pointer of the night That looks sweet bars Couldn't quite match him, but Herzog the animal in there puts it up and in Get a man on better get a body on that man shot inside is no good by Wheeler Inside the Decker he gets fouled no call and missed the shot. He got wrapped on the head Obank being guarded by Zastrow A good strip that time by Hess otherwise Herzog would have had another two oil boy yelling over here about a hand check and On the other side Todd Decker is yelling about a wrapped it ahead that's the first miss that Sam has had in the two games. We've had him and that time he was fouled so it shouldn't have been a miss Zastrow Papping it up, but the Zastrow tips it in Pardon me Decker tipped it in Cedar Grove thought it was a Zastrow with a basket Cedar Grove thought that the Decker Interfered And now we get a timeout by Cedar Grove. It's 36 27 Scott Got a little bit away from the officials. I think Marty I think you know Sam got plunked and then there was some contact down there and you know now It's getting back and forth and you know both coaches have things to discuss and it's better that they just walk away Jim mine in very gonna see the Lob shot and pretty close. I mean that See that again Scott There's the steel And a kiss off the glass Yeah, the intent was supposed to be a pass Zastrow did not intend for it to go and knock off the The rim you have one of those on Friday a couple weeks ago. Yeah, but it went into the hoop. Yeah Here let's see if it's a goal tending I would say yeah Wow It was coming off the bat. Hey Scott. Why didn't we have that in slow-mo, man? Come on By the way, I love the graphic with the WSCS. That's awesome local that Sheboygan Local for the city used by us very nice Luther back in the zone Chris Bars stepping right up. See give me that shot. I'll take it. Oh Wheeler couldn't catch the pass life on with the good look We'll just got to catch that ball Good shot right there a Sam Decker coming down right into your living rooms. Yep Are we 3d yet? There wishmen's getting Right in there in the meat now wheeler good anticipation there. They knew they'd be looking for her Zag Sam a turnover on the Rockets Zastrow with a three. He's lighting it up He's five of six tonight Marty 12-point lead by the Crusaders and another turnover Maybe almost Kirst got the ball back Lucas caught back in the game kickout pass to Abing going baseline Kicks it back out to Ruppel his shot is off. No good Decker with the longhands got it and then he gets tied up Good hustle that time by Kirst Possession arrow belongs to the Crusaders, so they'll keep it under a minute left until halftime 37 seconds exactly It's dangerous to get it in there Zastrow from tan couldn't get it Decker working hard he gets fouled to go to the line to shoot to His first trip to the line Fall goes on her Zag Chris He cannot pick up his third 26.9 seconds left to 22 points Chris for Sam in his first half looking for 23 right here. It's got eight rebounds to Marty. I Bet he has a double double before we're done 13-point lead by the Crusaders 40 to 27 10 seconds Ruppel gets it inside the cot. His 10 footer is no good wheeler against the board Zastrow on a cherry pick gets two right at the buzzer At halftime the Crusaders lead it by 15 42 to 27 You can't text and pay attention to the world around you and you definitely can't text and drive Every year deaths due to distracted and negligent driving are increasing in fact while drunk driving rates have dropped greatly Negligent driving fatalities have skyrocketed find out more at negligent driving calm Each small beauty we experience Each discovery we enjoy is our responsibility to share with generations to come Back here at Lutheran High School just getting ready to start second half action first half scoring Let's go at Cedar Grove first Travis Obank their nice guard had nine Spencer bars off the bench at three Jonathan Herzog number 13 was a real force for them He had 11 cursed had four four the Crusaders Sam Decker let all scores with 22 right behind him was Tyler Zastrow with 15 Josh wheeler had a three-pointer and early in the first quarter Jacob juris off the bench at two Getting ready to start second half action Lutheran on top by 15. It got away from Cedar Grove. They're towards the end of that Yeah quarter at three C or two four seven eight ten point run and the half and 18 for 26 shooting Marty for Luther that's just outstanding 10 of 26 for Cedar Grove Four shot by Kirst is no good, but he comes away with the ball And all kinds of hands touching the ball, but none of the Crusader players could get it again The Rockets of Cedar Grove are gonna keep it Cedar Grove Belgium pardon me first get got it inside to Herzog But he wasn't able to do much with it and then those astro tips it out of bounds I'll tell you Tyler Zastrow's got quick hands Chris Yeah, he's really really improved throughout the year and We're very fortunate to see Lutheran quite a bit to so to see his development Still just a young sophomore Lutheran had a very good JV team last year, you know, it wasn't you know, I understand it Sam's a good player, but he needed support and he's got some good ones Herzog down the baseline for two big half for the big two Decker 11 for 12 her and Zastrow six for eight 17 for 20 for the big two Zastrow got pushed after the shot and will call and it goes off of Nick Reddiker Reddiker in fall trouble didn't see as much action as he probably liked Herzog for Cedar Grove has to a juris pass and Reddiker each have two falls for the Crusaders Good movement shot is blocked Ruppel had a shot blocked on that one He's all for three tonight Decker's foot was on the line shot is no good Ruppel again got it three pointer Got one down all sudden at 15 point lead is down to 10 Herzog working hard Life on down the lane had a shot blocked and Herzog is gonna pick up the fall That's a big one I don't know about that third fall and he picks it up early in the second half See how Coach Minin handles this Chris. He doesn't have anybody Coming off the bench right now you know sometimes this The situation the game situation kind of forces your hand and I think in this case he almost has to keep men I agree with you And you're behind you got to you know save you come back a little bit You can maybe pull but you need your horses out there because otherwise it's just gonna get away Good live hands by Zastrow Reddick her on cot did a good job there Step back jumper by Herzog is no good First on the rebound put it up and in or rebounding Defensive rebounding I guess you could say for Luther and say too many offensive rebounds for the Cedar Grove Play a team like Howard's Grove with those big guys They might catch you Zastrow shot is no good, but Decker's right there to clean up the mess Going to the second column early in the third quarter Oh first prayers are answered Decker Couldn't get it couldn't get it again had a nice look both times a tip back But a good effort to what an effort what an effort to go and get that by Sam. I mean that was outstanding And that's just quick hops Not giving up on it Zastrow fold on the way in I don't think you'll be shooting free throws. No, they say stepped on the line No, a little wrapper on action, maybe They had us all fooled wheeler picking up the fall on a block Along the baseline allowing Zastrow to get to the hoop. It's one only a referee would see He get kicked out of the gym if you call that on Friday night Friday after school Wheelers lob pass to Decker his dunk attempt is no good. Herzog with the rebound and he was undercut. Yeah Rupples layup is good And we get a whistle timeout with this timeout. It's a 46 to 38 Cedar Grove making a run again Chris They're on a 6-2 run get back in the game Our next game isn't gonna be until on next Saturday Chris Another little bit of a break It's gonna be on Saturday February 4th when north travels down to the south side To play the north-south game.

We And a good pass off by Tyler Zastrow to a Sam Decker and he's fouled I don't like that teamwork all goes on Lucas Cot Seen a lot of good passing by Lutheran tonight Marty taking that extra pass the open person Lutheran's got to shoot a little bit better at the line Six out of ten 50 to 38 not out of the woods yet.

Herzog high for the board first has it Is six three-bound Herzog? I think throws it up and in a horse shot Yeah, it's exactly right and it's only an eight-point lead again by the crusaders. They just don't go away Rolling down to the two-minute mark of the third quarter. It's 50 to 42 Decker Fault on the way in got pushed to the ground couldn't get it in Rupple foot on the line. No, they're gonna get it gave him a three, but he couldn't get it to go and Travel call I think that was a good call to Chris He was looking up the floor Wanted to throw it to Zastro and hesitated a little bit and now that caused the travel There's that three-point attempt. That's no good. You're gonna see. Yeah, he did it a little bit late Back to live action And the rocket's a little pressure one guy. We're not letting you have it Zastro. Yeah Sam asking his dad Todd. What do you want me to run? Todd told him to score a basket. Yep. They bumped him Yeah, cursed playing the tight D but a little bit too tight that time and for Kyle That's his third fall. Hey, he's just riding them there It's okay to follow him around, but you just can't ride them Decker in the lane again couldn't get it but tips it up and in Obing being guarded by Zastro Rupple being guarded by Wheeler Obing wow looking looking looking didn't get the three-point call. So he thought I'll shoot at them and yet put it up and in Back to within 12 Back to within eight. Oh wow lots of contact Caught on the fall Sam Decker will go to the line to shoot two For Lucas caught that's his second Gotta be better Pre-throw shooting has not been good tonight Not that one in 53-44 under a minute left in the third quarter Sam asking his guys to get a stop here good leadership And number one is talking out there, too He's got to relax get back into the lane into the paint Not with a fade away put it up and in As you would say another country heard from 7-point game Marty under 20 seconds Don't want to score too early Or not gonna score anytime, but make sure you score. I guess would be the better thing Decker with a real nice move down the lane five Passes blocked Rupple at the buzzer No good, and we're at the end of three quarters of play with Luther on top 55-46 takes more than perfect balance more than a great pair legs more Than a good sword.

He's 15 of 22 from the floor And that bumps the lead back up to 12 and now they're 23 of 40 Lutheran it is Lutheran sitting in a zone right now. They finished out the third in that zone And open with it again here in the fourth cursed and caught going to check in for the Rockets and Zastral for the Crusaders coming out is Adam Shire and Spencer bars, and we haven't seen much of Spencer in that third quarter Chris Cot off the bench pops in another two It's to a five tonight To an arodo. Yeah, they're just not going away fighting hard Cedar Grove guys now. I know why they play the Usberg pretty close only lost by 13 last time out Wheeler likes that spot couldn't get it in Obank shot is no good push on cut. Good eyes Chris that's the seventh foul on Seventh foul on Lutheran Just two yet. Excuse me on Cedar Grove just two on Crusaders Crusaders, but they got three up there should be just two. I believe there's a free-throw maid I was thinking a wheeler taking that shot from the corner. You know what that reminds me of That's six five guy that used to play here that shoots only the threes. What's his name powers and true power? Oh Drew and grants that they were watching us. Yeah, and we were talking about them That's why I thought I'd bring it up again 60 to 48 Lutheran on top Juris has four points on the night Good kick out the cursed, but the reticor quick to get over to cover up the shooter Guy we haven't heard much of here in the second half has been her Zog Chris cursed rainbow shot bounces straight up and through and it's a three-pointer Back to nine. I think it hit the wire. I see it moving. I was wondering about that Decker kicks it out and nice movement to the ball Juris open from three couldn't get it in Good box out there by Ruppel yep all the rockets were on the glass Almost thrown away right behind Zastery picks it up put his head down Over the back. Yeah, you got to call that That show of six for eight in the first half missed all four here Marty in the second half This last shot was definitely a force They could have stopped at the free-throw line and checked out the situation a little better It was astral hustling that time I'll bet coach talked to him a little bit on those cut-throughs through the lane because Obank for the most part Not been contested when he cuts through but that time he was Well, I thought Abning didn't go hard to the basket He if he would have started instead of just jogged through it. He may have beaten them again. Oh, yep Abank for three He's three of four now in the half Six of 14 in the game and they're back got it back down to six Big possession I think for a Lutheran I agree Chris. I think this is a time where Sam's a little better off to Try to get him the basketball close to the basket Wheeler says I'll take care of business. Yeah, worry about it. Yeah, or just make it free Just give it over here number five will take care of it and he did for the third time tonight Got me three for four from out there. Wheeler's problem is he doesn't shoot enough Which time yeah, well we give him two but we're gonna call it on the third and they do and that one's gonna go on Travis Abank and The three wraps he got the least of the hard wrap. Oh my gosh Let it go comes away with the board and throws it in the backcourt and it'll go out of bounds won't matter I'll tell you Spec more out of Sam at the free throw line. Yep And he knows it who turned by nine back to the zone No, no, no, no, no, no, it was supposed to be a man-to-man I think they got mixed up on a defense But Reddick her with a good block out got the board and lost it and caught fighting him for it We get a tie-up situation good hustled by both players Reddick her and caught the the cruise pardon me the Rockets are gonna have it Ruppel has it on the wing fires it up from a good distance outside the line and banks it off and he doesn't even smile 63 57 335 left in the game Reddick her gets it in the Decker. He's followed on a shot and puts it in but they're gonna say no shot Go to the line shooting the one and one Are you basketball fans out there you should come out here on? the 14th When shabuigan falls comes here shabuigan falls having an outstanding your Eric Spielman squad ranked in the top 10 Another nice game Decker with another miss and Ruppel had a look at a three and passed it up kicks it out to Herzog And he's followed by Decker I think Sam's problem there Chris was swatting down. Yeah, go straight up. It's the fourth team fall on Lutheran John Herzog at the line shooting a pair Lutheran's in the double bonus But they got to start making some free throws or It doesn't matter how many trips you take there Actually, that is the first free throw attempt by Cedar Grove in the second half Lutheran has gone to the line enough. They just haven't connected down to five points Herzog guarding Wheeler and Ruppel guarding Decker Under three minutes Marty. Yeah Clock ticking down. You certainly would like to get points this possession. Well, we saw this on the opening drive And we got a little two-footer by Decker Creating the space is Lutheran. That's why they're not getting a five counts There's a bump by Travis Obank. That's gonna be his third And from now on Lutheran will be shooting two Lutheran just two of five in the quarter on Fugal percentage and free throws not much better Now we got a full-time out Scott Lutheran on top 64 58 have you heard? Scam artists are trying to trick seniors into giving them the Medicare number I heard that this happened to my friend a man came to her door Wanting to sign him up for the new Medicare program Well when she got her Medicare summary notice, it was full of charges for services. She hadn't received So I did something about it I joined the senior Medicare patrol where I teach others to protect their Medicare numbers Review statements to spot false charges and reports suspected Cedar Grove is six of nine free throw shooting for the game Now Zastrow has one coming up right now Lutheran has made 10 of 17 They got a chance to bump it up to 11 at 18. They can make a free throw, but From this point on Lutheran's got to do a little better at the line Well, and they're gonna obviously foul 226 left I'm Lutheran. I'm looking for You know those three pointers you want those to fall, but I'll tell you what I've been very impressed with her Zog underneath as well, you know on the flip side Somebody's got a wide open layup. It wouldn't pay be necessarily a bad idea to follow there. See John Schumann and any lawyer City of Sheboygan's here. They're all here There you go Hey 11 at 18 from the line and now it's 65 58 who turned back to a man-to-man defense a Good defense at time, but cursed on a spin move got it up and in light palm Couldn't stop them They don't go away. Do they know I you know for being seven and six, you know, they're all right pretty pretty impressed guys like Kirsten Ruppel and Obink And then you throw in a her zog in there in the middle and you know, they're pretty impressive two minutes left in the game and her zog falls wheeler For a her zog that's his fourth. It was not a good fall there Chris not you don't want him committing to fall So you play a little offense defense, you know if you get a chance. Yeah, good point Chris And they could have made that change because they had their guy shooting a free throw down here Stepping up in the clutch two minute warning two minutes. Nice night seven point Lutheran lead her zog Good job that time by Decker going straight up committing the fall was obank. That'll be his fourth Wow Her zog pretty close to putting that in over Decker Yeah, it just rolled out there and there's three black shirts there But Zastrow had the position because he had the position ladies and gentlemen He got fouled Boy, they're banging them now. Yes, they are five in a row Yes, sir, five in a row Could be four in a row by Zastrow and then Plotty more by Wheeler 69-60 145 Wheeler right idea, but he was late Zast Rupple outside the line nails a three and a quick timeout Todd Decker saying what are you doing? Yeah, they're up to you know gambled on the steel But when you gamble on the steel leaves the other four men scrambling and when they're scrambling somebody's gonna be open in there For Rupple was open and he was outside the three-point line, which hurt even more Pull within six just play straight up good defense. You don't have to take chances when you're leading by nine Our next basketball game is gonna be Saturday, February 4th when Sheboygan North travels down to the south side Not very often Darth Vader crosses the 8th Street Bridge, but they will be on Saturday And we look forward to giving you that game for the Crusaders. Our next game is gonna be on Tuesday January 31st when they go out to Elkhard Lake Lembula. You're familiar with that. Yep neighborhood And then for the Rockets, they're gonna play keel in a non-conference game next Tuesday Big game also for Sheboygan Lutheran is upcoming and that'll be When they have to take on Howard's Grove on February 3rd in Howard's that may be the one that you need to clinch it look out below Decker with a nice layup didn't try to slam it just went for the basket and got it in he's 15 of 23 tonight 14 rebounds 35 for him all was tipped away Lutheran has it Decker on the layup and he's fouled What's the push from behind? Well, he had the offense defensive thing in Chris, but didn't work out No, and I think the ball was tipped so he didn't have to do that, but here's just a bad You know again a dangerous play there Novak and Grayson Pfeiffer were in the game and puts it in 38 points. I told you they wouldn't get to 73 points. They're at 74 and Zastro commits a silly fall Normally, that's a bad foul, but if you have fouls to give that's ain't so bad Could have been worse 110 left in the ballgame. I was only the sixth team foul on Lutheran Obing gives it off, but Ruppel couldn't find the shot ob a Layup attempt is no good, but he's fouled wheeler. I think Richard Barton giving you that shot Eric Weasman on the floor camera He's got mail off in the truck spinning the dials Chris Wright providing the color and I'm the play-by-play guy Mike Martin We're having a good time giving you the game. It's been a good one a Cedar Grove, Belgium has played very very hard Quite well for the most part juris on a little cherry pick gets to Six rebounds for a wheeler tonight, too Shot is no good. We'll have a board What a pass wheeler again. Oh, man, I don't think we'll have enough time Oh, we will maybe we can take a replay of that Scott. That was awesome and a turnover by the Rockets watch this pass On foul Don't foul I think goes down hard Do foul I think got the line His last trip. He made one out of two. We missed that one Well over 50% for Luther tonight 28 for 47 from the floor 8 for 14 Well, it was a five-point game not too long ago Marty. No, you're right Rolling down to 20 seconds left in the game Astral went off a black. That's a good call. You're gonna see right here It's hard to tell official did the right thing. He called it black. He just pointed the wrong way. Good job by the official there I actually thought it went off the black foot, but when we saw the replay is Look like it probably went off of zastral Tyler had to give the ball up that time a little too much dribbling ob ink round and off wheel with the board Eighth one for him and Luther pulls it out and they're gonna come away with the 13-point wins 78 to 65 What was a very entertaining game Chris is going to go over and see if he can get a couple of the Crusader players and I got a couple of fans from over at Pigeon River behind me. They're waiting to get on TV and We're gonna step out and we come back Chris will have a couple of the Crusaders will give you some scoring and wrap this game up We are this close this close to making sure no child suffers a crippling disease ever again Be a part of history at Rotary dot org Never look a howler monkey in the eye fried answer delicious.
