Scholesburg at Richland Center, Girls' Basketball. Coach of the Hornets,

Alec Edset talked to us earlier today about Scholesburg.

There are very scrappy teams. I watched some film on them last night of a couple different games.

They play a zone on defense, and offensively they're pretty well-rounded. We'll have our hands full,

but I think we can be in the game. They're a very beatable team, but it just depends on if

what team for Richland Center shows up tonight.

The Hornets host Scholesburg here at the game on FM100.9 and WRCO.com.

The Viteznik Powersports pre-game show begins around 715. I'm Phil Ne.

And we have this information to pass along. Richland Center Churchly Volleyball

that is being played at the RC Primary School. The matches have been moved up,

so the first match will be played at 8 o'clock tonight. The matches at the Richland Center

Community Center will remain at the usual scheduled time. Wisconsin's top two defensive

Division 1 basketball programs are headed in different directions in the polls.

Marquette is writing a seven-game winning streak and ranked tonight's game at Butler.

The Golden Eagles are ranked fifth this week with an 18-5 record. The Badgers have dropped to 21st

after seeing the losing streak for in a row. Coach Greg Gard's team hosts Ohio State tonight

at the Coles Center looking to approve on a 16-8 record. And you will be able to hear the broadcast

of that game on WRCE107.7 and 1450 online at wrce.fm and on the Civic Media app.

Tip off for that contest will be at 8 with the pre-game starting at around 7.

After losing five of their first six games under new head coach Doc Rivers,

the books have won two in a row. Monday night they took care of the Denver Nuggets,

112-95 for the first time this season. Milwaukee has held opponents under 100 points and back-to-back

games. Yannis Antiducupo scored a game high 36 points and took down a season high 18-point

18 rebounds. The books built the lead to 28 points laid in the third period and coasted home.

They're back in action tonight at home hosting the Miami Heat.

Form Wisconsin defensive back defensive coordinator and interim head coach Jim Leonard is taking

a position on the coaching staff of the Denver Broncos. Leonard will be the team's defensive

back coach under Sean Payton. He has served as a defensive analyst with the fighting line of

Illinois under Brett Bielamal for the last year. Leonard played one season for Denver in the NFL

in 2012. At least one national report has Badgers defensive line coach Greg Scruggs leaving

for the same position with the Michigan Wool Marines. 247 Sports says Scruggs will be on head coach

Sharon Moore staff. He came to Madison last year with new head coach Luke fickle after working

with fickle since 2018 at Cincinnati. Scruggs is known as an excellent recruiter and has reportedly

been doing a lot of important work for the recruiting class of 2025 at Wisconsin.

Scouts say the brewers have enough talent to contend for the National League Central Division title

but potential roster moves could stop that. They're still potential from Milwaukee to trade power

hitting short stop. William Thomas he'd bring in a load of prospects. So with closer Devon Williams

New York media has published multiple stories about the Yankees making a trade to complete their

first bullpen to complete their bullpen I should say by picking up Williams. There has been no

indication from the Milwaukee front office that there is any chance of such a trade. The departure

of Corbyn Burns and Brandon Woodruff have dropped the brewers chances of repeating as division

champs lower but the prospects coming in the door offer a promising future for the franchise.

And the longest Super Bowl game will also go down as the most watched game pro most watch program

in US television history. According to Nielsen and Adobe analytics Kansas City's 25-22

overtime victory over San Francisco averaged 123.7 million viewers across television and streaming

platforms. That shattered that shattered last year's mark of 115.1 million for Kansas City's last

play victory over Philadelphia and is a 7% increase. The game was televised by CBS, Nickelodeon,

Univision and Streamdown Paramount Plus as well as the NFL's digital platforms. Some of the

increase can be attributed to a change in the way out of home viewers are counted.
