I'm Phil Ne, with a look at sports, high school boys, basketball tonight, Waniwak Center
is at Brookwood, Belmont at River Ridge, and Adams Friendship at Rippen.
Also tonight, New Lisbon is at Hillsboro, Royal at Cashton, in the Senior Bluffs Conference,
and Richland Center plays at Lancaster, here's Hornets Coach Brian Pulse.
Yeah, Lancaster is a great team.
They're off to a great start.
I think just not unexpected.
I think they've got a great returning group from last year, two players that, you know,
a thousand-point scores if Hermeson hasn't gotten 1,000, he's pretty close.
But Taylor Williams, another senior, they got some depth, they got shooting.
We might have an advantage size-wise for them, but Thursday night will be all about us being
able to play at the speed we want to play at.
I think Lancaster's going to want to get up and down, they're going to want to speed
us up.
So for us to be successful, we're going to have to control that and limit our turnovers
and really play, especially offensively, the pace that we want to play.
Hornet boys at Lancaster tonight, both teams are 2 and 0 to start the conference year.
In Girls Basketball this evening, Darlington will play at Iowa Grant, Mineral Point at
Southwestern in the SWAL, Federal Board of Basketball, Cuba City at Riverdale.
Tonight River Ridge is at Highland.
In the Ridge and Valley, North Crawford at DeSoto, Wozika Stuban is at Seneca, Ithaca,
Weston at Kikapoo.
In the Southwest Conference, Plattville at Prairie Dushin, it's a game for Lancaster
at Dodgeville and River Valley at Richland Center.
I talked to Hornet's head coach Jeremy Kui about his team's experience, getting a
chance to play in Milwaukee at Pfizer for them.
It's definitely a fun time, you know, especially being able to go down there for two years in
a row.
So, you know, a lot of the girls in the program had a chance to step on the court and just
cool experience for the girls to take in and to plan the court and then even travel back
behind in the tunnels in the locker rooms and stuff.
So, a lot of fun didn't have the outcome that we were hoping for, but still have a lot
of fun down there.
At what point in a game like that, do you just kind of forget about the big surroundings
and focus on the game?
I started talking to him about that a week before.
So, now it's one of those where, you know, the rims still tend to hide.
The court's a little bit bigger, so that is a little bit of a challenge at times.
But, you know, at the end of the day, we still got to get the job done, put the ball in
What do you know about River Valley and what looks tough on their scouting report?
Pretty much, I mean, for what I see in it, I know they're going to put some pressure on
us and, you know, try and force us into turnovers, they're going to, you know, take a look
to get some steel and get the ball to court.
So, we just have to be smart with our ball handling and clean with our passes to make
sure that we don't put them in a position or they, you know, they're out there getting
layups all day.
River Valley at Richland Center, girls basketball in the area tonight and on the air on FM 100.9
and WRCO.com.
Tomorrow night, we'll have updates from the Southwest Conference wrestling duel night
hosted by Richland Center.
He resorted boys, coach Wyatt Seep.
Yes, it is, it's real to have it at home.
Richland Center's got a rich history in wrestling and anytime that we can invite the
conference schools in to wrestle at our home territory.
That's always exciting having the home fans there.
We're really excited to be able to host that tournament.
Well, you get a chance to wrestle everybody in one day so you kind of have to be at your
best Friday night, don't you?
Yeah, for sure.
It wrestling all those conference teams can, you know, having the, having a duel with
each one of them can make for a long night.
You certainly want to be at your best because it does come down to a lot of wrestling.

sports, Marquette Forward, Ben Goal's dunk with less than a minute to go, effectively
snapped his team six game losing streak last night.
It gave the goal and Eagles a 6665 decision over Xavier Royce parham's 14 lead.
The way while Chase Ross added a dozen points and nine rebounds for Coach Shocka's smarts
team.
Guys did a great job at the very end doing one of the most basic things that goes into
winning basketball games and that's, you know, back-to-back possessions of a score and
a stop, which is what we needed when they took the lead 65, 64.
That win last night for Marquette, they'll welcome Villanova to Pfizer for him coming up
on Saturday elsewhere in basketball number one Arizona was a winner against Kansas
State, 176 and number 15 Arkansas over Ole Miss, 94, 87.
Yada Satsunikobo scored 34 in 30 minutes, but it wasn't enough to avoid defeat Wednesday
night.
The goal is to say Warriors outscore the box, 120, 113.
Milwaukee lost despite connecting on 54% of its floor shots and making good on 44%
of its three pointers.
So why the loss?
Here's Coach Doc Rivers.
We should have 54% tonight too.
So I just thought they made all the tough plays tonight, all the loose balls, all the
big rebounds, play few contact and I didn't think we did that tonight.
Also thought they trusted their offense for longer stages and I thought we gave up on
ours and points and tried to go I think that's just not how we played.
Box coach Doc Rivers and Milwaukee will try to get back on track Friday against the
LA Lakers.
This night Detroit 108 Chicago 93 Philadelphia 131 Washington 110 Toronto over Charlotte 9796

The Packers know how to win even when they play as the underdog.
Their back at Soldier Field Saturday to meet the Bears for the second time in the last
four games.
Two seasons ago they surprised the NFL with a 4832 win over the Cowboys in the wild card
playoff round.
So Green Bay has faced this challenge before.
The Bears have lost two at a row and the Packers have dropped four straight.
The string ends for one of those teams this weekend.
Quotac Jordan love talked about raising your level when the playoffs begin.
Everybody knows this playoffs is winter go home.
You got to go out there play your best ball and execute at high level and if you don't,
you know, you're going to end up losing the game and it comes down to who executes the
best who takes care of the ball the best and who puts up the most points.
So it's got to go out there play your best ball and execute at a high level or else you
be going home.

at tonight's featured broadcast, here's Phil me tonight on WRC Radio Richland Center
will be hosting River Valley and area girls basketball. I talked to coach Jeremy
Kui of Richland Center about the Blackhawks for one. I know they're going to put some pressure
on us and you know, try and force us in the turnovers. They're going to, you know, take
a look to get some steel and get ball to court. So we just have to be smart with our ball
handling and clean with our passes to make sure that we don't put them in a position
to where they, you know, they're out there getting layups all day. River Valley is coached
by Joe Woodhouse. They look like they're playing better this year. They're playing competitive
in a lot of their games and things like that. They have a couple younger girls. They
still have the tall girl that's kind of leading them both offensively and defensively
and almost average in a double double it looks like and don't they're playing well this
year and stuff like that. So I think it's another game where we have to come out and do
what we need to do because, you know, every game's a dogfight a little bit.
