Southwestern at Cuba City, and Boscombelle visits Riverdale. Well, that game tonight on WRC
Oredio, pre-game time sponsored by the Technic Power Sports will be around 715 for Coach Larry
Swigham's team. They have played all right lately. We played our most complete game of the year
right before our Christmas break against Iowa Grant. And I'll beat them by 33 points, which was
really impressive. I thought it was going to be a really tight game. Kind of got up early,
and we're able to stain all the way through. Then right after break here, let's see LaFarge,
we played on Thursday night. Definitely a sluggish first half for us. I think the halftime
score was 18 to 8. But we were able to put them away, be on 53, 23. So very happy with that start.
A lot of times long breaks make it a little difficult to get back into the rhythm. So
we've got a really busy week ahead with Boscombe Tuesday and then at Southwestern on Friday.
So that's Coach Larry Swigham Riverdale getting set to host Boscombelle. That's our featured game
this evening from the area. Boys, basketball on the schedule, bearable at Adam's Friendship,

Badgers shooters stayed hot on a 75 63 victory at Rutgers Monday Wisconsin shot 54% from the floor
led by John Blackwell and Stephen Crowell Blackwell scored 21 points and Crowell had 17
as the Badgers even their big 10 conference record at 2 and 2 Wisconsin built a lead of 16 points
in the first half before the Scarlet Knights closed within three twice in the second half.
The Badgers will host Minnesota on Friday night coach Greg guard talked about how tough it is
winning on the road as it always is when you come in here and try to come out on the left hand side
it's going to be a rock fight at times. I thought we were showed some grittiness and some toughness
maybe when things didn't flow as smoothly as they can sometimes for us offensively and we had
different guys step up and make plays and you know able to withstand the run at us there in the
second half and and then get separation and put it away. The box have finally taken down a weaker
opponent after rolling over Toronto Monday night 128 104 Milwaukee's lead was as large as 33
at one point. Yannis out to the Cumpo produced his fourth triple double with 11 points 12 rebounds
and 13 assists. Damien Lillard led the scoring column with 25. The box had dropped several recent
games to teams with sub 500 records. Second year NBA sensation Victor Wimbanyama leads the spurs
into the Pfizer forum for a game coming up on Wednesday elsewhere in the NBA Detroit 118 Portland 115
Phoenix 109 Philadelphia 99 Indiana 113 Brooklyn 99 Orlando 103 New York 94 Memphis 119 Dallas 104
Chicago 114 San Antonio 110 Minnesota 108 the Clippers 106 and Sacramento beat Miami 123 118
in two over times. A torn ACL in his knee ends the season for injury prone Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson. The second year pro suffer the serious injury in Sunday's 2422 loss to the
Bears as the team looks ahead to the wildcard round of the NFL playoffs against the Eagles.
Head coach Matt Florettel's reporters he expects quarterbacks Jordan love and Malik Willis
to be ready to go by the weekend. Wide receiver Romeo Dobbs appears to be improving after missing
the Chicago game with an illness. Matt Florett talked about Watson's perils. This is his presence
on the field alone. He's so versatile in his ability to play multiple positions. You can put him
at the X the F the Z. You can move them all over the place. Obviously he's got an element in terms
of his size and speed. That's tough to replicate. There's not many built like him. I hurt for him.
Obviously hurt for our team. But I also just more for him just because I know how much he's put
into this thing. New England's Jared Mayo Jacksonville's Doug Peterson or two NFL coaches out of a
job while Giants coach Brian Dabble is also among those who look like they will be back next fall.
It's the day after the NFL's regular season, which usually means a tough day for coaches as under
achieving teams move quickly to make changes. Camilla ran for two touchdowns and threw for two more
to lead North Dakota state to its record 10th football championship subdivision title.
The bison beat top seeded and previously undefeated Montana state 3532 on Monday night.
Some other defenses have carried the last four teams still in the hunt for the national championship.
If you want offense, look elsewhere this weekend. The defenses with all Americans spread
throughout the lineups are the story of the semis Ohio State Texas Penn State and Notre Dame.
All rank in the top eight nationally in total defense. The buckais and long horns meet in the
cotton bowl on Friday. The knitney lions and fighting Irish play in the orange ball on Saturday.
And I'm Phil knee with sports.

Here's Phil Ney with a look at tonight's Sports Action.
There's high school wrestling in the area tonight. Yathaka Weston is playing host to
Galena, Illinois, and also the River Valley Blackhawks. It's T-shirt night at Yathaka. Wrestling

at Royal. It's Mauston at Richland Center in Girls Basketball, Varsity only, Darling
Senate Middlepoint, Phenomore at Iowa Grant, Southwestern at Cuba City, and Baskabell
at Riverdale. That's our featured game on the radio this evening.
I asked Riverdale Girls Coach Larry Swickum about the matchup.
But overall, I like our matchup. It's Baskabell, so any sport with Riverdale on Baskabell
is going to be a tight game, no matter what the records are and all that kind of stuff.
We look forward to a nice atmosphere here, hopefully get a nice crowd, and I'll get a big
win against them.
I talked today to Baskabell Girls Coach Eric Kinney.
They've been playing some good basketball that got some really nice players. The Dennis
Girl is a really good point guard tough matchup. The Kui Girl can shoot. He can't leave her
open, and McCays have it a really good year form right now. I think he's leading him
as Cori and it's about 13 points of game. So they got some good role players around
them. So they have a relatively deep bench. So they have some good players. It's going
to be interesting to see how we match up with them and how the game goes.
Here the game tonight on WRC OFM 100.9 and WRC.com, the pre-game time rolls around 715.
I'm Phil Me.
Badgers Benz Baskabell Shooters stayed hot in a 75 to 63 victory at Rutgers yesterday.
Wisconsin shot 54% from the floor, led by John Blackwell and Stephen Croll. Blackwell scored
21 points and Croll had 17 as the Badgers, even their big 10s conference record at two
and two. Wisconsin build a lead of 16 points in the first half before the Scarlet Knights
closed to within three twice in the second half. The Badgers host Minnesota on Friday evening.
Wisconsin women's basketball team is in action tonight when they play on road at the Washington
Huskies. The Badgers are 10 and 5 this season and the Huskies are 11 and 5. Pre-game for
that show, that game can be heard on WRC. 107.7 and AM 1450. Also on WRC.fm and on the
Pacific media app. I said pre-game starts at 740 and Tip-Off will be at 8 o'clock.
The Bucks have finally taken down a weak opponent after rolling over Toronto last night at 128
to 104. Milwaukee's lead was as large as 33 at one point. Yannis added to Kupo, produced
his fourth triple double with 11 points, 12 rebounds and 13 assists. Damian Lillard led
the scoring column with 25 points and the Bucks had dropped several recent games to teams
with sub 500 records. Second year NBA sensation Victor Wambayama led the San Antonio Spurs into
the Pfizer form or will lead the San Antonio Spurs into the Pfizer form for a game tomorrow.
Marquette moves up to seventh in the first AP college basketball pole of the new year.
It's six in the USA today's coach's pole. The Golden Eagles were ace in the AP ranking
last week after wins over Providence and Creighton. The team's only game this week is tonight
at Pfizer form when they when Georgetown comes to town. And those veteran running backs who
changed addresses in the offseason have given themselves a chance to showcase the difference they
can make in the postseason. Plenty of contenders capitalized on a crowded market by adding proven
ball carriers. The moves paid major dividends. Now players such as Phil Duffy Shakwan,
Barclay, Baltimore, Starrick Henry and Green Bay's Josh Jacobs are welcome to play are welcoming
I should say the playoff opportunities they didn't get often enough with their original teams.
Other playoff running backs who have performed well for new teams this season include Minnesota's
Aaron Jones and Houston's Joe Mixon. WRCO Sports has been sponsored by Lakes Gas Company serving
