  Speaker 1: All right, on today's show, get to do a little
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: bit of a recap of the winter sports season for
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the four highest profile winter sports teams. For Ohio State,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: the women's basketball team, they just wrapped up their season
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: on Monday at the Shottenstein Center, not the way they
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: wanted to wrap that season up and eighty three to
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: seventy three loss to Notre Dame. Buck guys entered the
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: NCAA Tournament as a three seed. They fall to the
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: sixth seeded fighting Irish. Ohio State jumped out to an
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: eleven to nothing lead in that game, but twenty one
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: turnovers did them in. Jilani Cambridge freshman phenom. She did
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: her very best, finished with forty one points in the game,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: but it was not enough, as the Buckeyes fall by ten.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: They finished the season twenty seven to eight and thirteen
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and five in the Big Ten, both very solid numbers
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: there very solid results. However, this is the third straight
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: year where the Buckeyes have been a host for the
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: first couple of rounds of the NCAA Tournament. They have
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: been a top four seed each of the last three years,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: hosted the first weekend. All three years, they have lost
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a second round game at home out before the Sweet sixteen.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Yet again this year men's basketball, you probably know what
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: happened there. We've talked about that a couple times recently.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Some tangible signs of progress for Jake Diebler's program. They
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: not only made the NCAA Tournament this year, they made
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: it comfortably. They were an eight seed, but they lost
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: in the first round by two points to TCU last Thursday.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Now they enter an off season where there's kind of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: a lot of questions about who's going to be staying,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: who's going to be going, who can they add in
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: the transfer portal. Bringing in a five star recruit, the
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Ohio Gatorade Player of the Year Tony Gerdaban and I
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: talked about that on an episode just a couple of
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: days ago. You can find a little more detail on
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the men's basketball program in that episode on to hockey,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: and we got to start here with the women's ice
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: hockey program. They reached the national championship game for the
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: fifth straight season. That is an incredible streak for Nadine
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Musral and her Buckeyes. They were down two nothing to
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Wisconsin in the national championship game, scored two goals in
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the third period to tie it up before the Badgers
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: scored with about six minutes to play to win that
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: game three to two. Obviously, a disappointing season for the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: buck Eyes. Disappointing way to end the season for the Buckeyes.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: The season on the whole though, pretty darn impressive. They
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: finished the year thirty six and five, twenty four and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: four in conference play. The good news Nadine Maserral just
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: got a five year contract extension, so she will stay
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: in Columbus and continue building that program. Now, just got
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to build them an arena. They are a lot as
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: long overdue, and it's been something they've been talking about
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: for quite a while. They're still working on it. It
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: is long, long, overdue that needs to happen at some
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: point soon. The men's hockey team, they had a little
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: bit of an up and down season, finished the year
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: fourteen twenty one and two, which does not sound great,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: but they made a great run through the Big Ten Tournament.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: They were a five seed in the opening round, they
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: beat fourth seed to Wisconsin seven to one in Madison.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Then they went up to East Lansing and upset top
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: seeded Michigan State three to two in overtime. That let
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: them reach the Big Ten Tournament championship game against Michigan
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: up in ann Arbor. With a win, they would have
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: gotten the auto bid to the NCAA Tournament. That game
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: was tied at three in the third period before the
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Wolverines pulled away for a seven to three win. So
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: no NCAA tournament for the Buckeyes this season. Wrestling also
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: wrapped up its season over the weekend with a fifth
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: place overall finish at the NCAA Wrestling Championship, So that
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: kind of puts a bow on the winter sports calendar
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: at Ohio State. Now back to spring and spring football
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: is back on the field Tuesday in the Woody Hayes
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Athletics Center. The buck guys had two practices before spring break,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: then took a week off. Now they are back for
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: practices three, four and five this week. It's going to
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: be a lot to talk about there as we head
