Here is Phil me with a look at tonight's area schedule.
High school wrestling sectionals are underway at Prairie Dushin High School tonight for
area girls wrestlers that finished first through fourth last weekend at the WIA regionals.
Those basketball this evening, Patosi Castville is at Plattville, Wazika Stuban at Hillsboro,
Barnabelle at Highland, Westby at Black River Falls, and Cubacity at Southwestern.
In Boyz Basketball, Riverdale at Mineral Point, Iowa Grant visits Phenomore, and Boscow
Bell takes on Darlington, Southwestern is at Cubacity.
Barnabelle at Highland, Kikapu is a Dishoto in the region Valley, North Crawford at Wazika
Stuban, and Ithaca is at Seneca, Brookwood at Ashton, and Plattville plays a Dodgeville
in the Southwest Conference, plus coming up tonight on the radio, Lancaster at Richland
Center.
Hortons coach Brian Polz says this is a big game for the upcoming Seeding Weekend.
You know, the 13 and 8, so any time you can get a win against the team, you know, with
a winning record with those 13 wins, that helps you in the formula, you know, and in looking
at our subsectional, we have a number of teams that are really grouped close together
right around 500, you know, we're 10 and 11 going into this game.
And so, you know, it'd be huge for us to get a win against a team with 13 wins, it
helped us in that formula, it really pushed us to maximize our seed.
And, you know, if we lose, we're hopeful we're still looking at hosting at a first-round
tournament game, but tonight we go a long way towards getting that home game that first
round.
I'm around 715, and then it's Richland Center and Lancaster, live from the Richland Center
High School Fieldhouse at FM 100.9 and WRCO.com.
I'm Phil Me.
The Bucks were able to shake off the disappointing news about Bobby Portis's 25 game suspension
and beat the Clippers last night, 116 to 110.
It was the first game back from the NBA All-Star break for both teams, Milwaukee used a huge
fourth quarter to come from behind, 6 bucks scored in double figures, Yannis Center
to Coupon came back from injury to scored 23 points, and Brooke Lopez had 22, Milwaukee
travels to Washington DC tonight, and a Sunday game against Miami means it will be 3 games
in 4 days.
Damien Lillard won't be available for tonight's game with the Washington Wizards as the Milwaukee
Bucks play for a second straight night.
The Bucks announced today or this afternoon that Lillard had been ruled out for the game

Clippers after intentionally or after initially being listed as questionable for the game.
