And Schmidt Woodland Hills, a modern assisted living community that offers different levels of
assistance based on need. It's more than living. It's living well at Schmidt Woodland Hills,
Richland Center. And with a look at tonight's tournament action, here's Phil Neat.
Here is a look at regional championship boys basketball games tonight.
Highland plays at Royal. North Crawford is at Potosi as well in WIA Division 5 games.
Bartveld plays at Southwestern and Belmont at Abundant Life Christian.
In Division 4, Lancaster plays at Minoal Point. Cubicity is at Darlington.
Some great games coming up tonight as well in Division 3.
It's Lodi playing at Wisconsin Dells and River Valley is playing at Plattville.
That's a game we'll have on WRC Radio tonight as the Black Hawks play at the Hillman.
I asked Coach Luke Fatcher about playing a team he is familiar with.
Or would he rather play a team that he doesn't see that often as was the case last night against
New Glares, a game in which River Valley won. Honestly, it doesn't matter to me. I really look
forward to the opportunity to be able to continue to play. It really hits home, especially with
this group of young men that we have. I'm very close with the senior class having a senior
myself. I coached them as fourth and fifth graders. The junior class I've been very close with
working with them at a very young age. It's just the finality of your last game.
It's not something many of us are ready for. I don't really approach it as we're familiar with them
or unfamiliar with them. We still have to do our homework. Everybody's still going to have a
wrinkle or two that they're going to throw in there. And it's the team that isn't going to waver,
isn't going to blink when the tough times come. And we've got to be ready for anything whether we
know them or not. Pre-game time begins between 6.35 and 6.40 this evening. We'll have it for you.
