0:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report high school football fans for part two of our Central Indiana Sports Report high school football score board for week eight.
0:20
[SPEAKER_02]: It's late late at night or more appropriately early early in the morning.
0:30
[SPEAKER_02]: A little bit of bonus covered from Friday night, Michelle covered tipped in against Hamilton Heights in the hammer game, and she will talk about that game coming up, but first, CNI are going to talk about the CIC, and East Brook is your 2025 champion, their 17th CIC Championship,
1:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Impressive performance by Coach Adams and his Panthers tonight, you and I Greg, we predict them to win.
1:10
[SPEAKER_00]: This is Coach Adams and his best team in the long, in a few years when you have a great athlete like a body how it makes things a little easier.
1:25
[SPEAKER_00]: But anyhow, he is a huge difference maker for the Panthers, you know, his athleticism, his just coaches love getting to hot coach athletes and players like Bowie Hout.
1:40
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, he's a senior.
1:43
[SPEAKER_00]: He started for three years.
1:44
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a veteran back there.
1:46
[SPEAKER_00]: He knows exactly what Coach Adamson and his staff want and expect out of him.
1:50
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just think that's a huge plus for each book this year.
1:54
[SPEAKER_02]: As we talked about a little, I predicted Eastbrook would win the conference championship before the season.
2:00
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't expect Mr. Sinowal to be as good as they've been, but man, what a season for Eastbrook.
2:11
[SPEAKER_02]: This would be a good chance to hear from Coach Adams and after the game and his thoughts on his championship and what the Panthers have coming up.
2:20
[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report East Brookhead Coach Jeff Adams and off a 35-14 win over Mr. Centawag coach.
2:28
[SPEAKER_02]: You've had a lot of big wins.
2:30
[SPEAKER_02]: This one's right up there.
2:32
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a fantastic game really was both sides played extremely well.
2:41
[SPEAKER_01]: We're just fortunate to get some really important plays at the right time, I think.
2:47
[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of been a story of the season, hasn't it?
2:50
[SPEAKER_01]: He really has, I think the neat thing in different nights.
2:55
[SPEAKER_01]: It's been a really good performance on all offense or defense or maybe in special teams tonight.
3:02
[SPEAKER_01]: We had all three working together pretty well, defense play extremely well.
3:08
[SPEAKER_01]: The Mr. Sinnellal got.
3:11
[SPEAKER_01]: got a couple scores on us in the second quarter.
3:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we pretty well show them down through the second half and I want to say show them down.
3:19
[SPEAKER_01]: We didn't let them score, but it was just a hard game all the way around.
3:27
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm sure you'd like to take some time to celebrate another CIC Championship your 17th congratulations, but it just kind of gets more difficult from here starting next week with a game.
3:38
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure the CIC Championship won't mean quite as much if you can't get my OK next week.
3:45
[SPEAKER_01]: you want to win it outright.
3:47
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't think any of our guys feel like her our work is done in coach Oswin is fantastic coach.
3:55
[SPEAKER_01]: She defends us extremely well.
3:58
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know we'll have a hard game next week as well, but certainly those games just like tonight helped make you better for the tournament as well.
4:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, speaking of the tournament, it's almost unfair.
4:13
[SPEAKER_01]: How good the sectional is.
4:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm certain that we're going to draw the other rate teams in the first and second route.
4:21
[SPEAKER_01]: It seems like that's how our luck has been the last few years.
4:25
[SPEAKER_01]: But, you know, I just like where our guys are right now.
4:29
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, they're really focused on doing whatever it takes to win.
4:32
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, they're not concerned about.
4:35
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, who carries or who's doing what they're everybody's just focused on doing their own job and hoping that that carries over for the rest of the team and that's what they're focused on just the team.
4:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Coach Adams and thank you so much and congratulations once again 17 conference titles.
4:55
[SPEAKER_02]: That's pretty amazing.
4:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
4:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Appreciate what you guys are doing.
5:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Keep it up.
5:03
[SPEAKER_02]: No time to celebrate it all, Michelle, because he's Brooke won a conference championship tonight.
5:11
[SPEAKER_02]: But if they lose to Oak Hill next Friday and have to share that thing with Mrs. Sinowals, not gonna feel quite as nice.
5:19
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it won't.
5:20
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm gonna guess that Coach Adamsen is...
5:25
[SPEAKER_00]: going to remind his players of that, but I think senior leaders like Bodhi Howell those guys will remind their teammates, hey, yeah, the winner of Mr. Sinoa was great, but all we've done is got a share of the conference championship.
5:39
[SPEAKER_00]: We wanted out right, no let up.
5:42
[SPEAKER_02]: And Michelle, that section will.
5:45
[SPEAKER_02]: is just not just that it's good and it is good but that it's so balanced.
5:53
[SPEAKER_02]: It seems like there are five teams that are all throwing them in a hat.
5:58
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got three teams that they're only hope for sectional win is to draw each other in the first round for two of the three to
6:14
[SPEAKER_00]: The other five, I'd tell you what, every coat, there's probably, most of those coaches, I think are thinking, I don't want the draw to make me have to play three to win a sectional.
6:28
[SPEAKER_02]: And what they really want is to be on the same side with blackford, while bashing out would.
6:34
[SPEAKER_02]: That would be a dream scenario for somebody.
6:38
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, Eastbrook 8, no Rochester 7 or 1 Eastern 7 and 1, Alexander a very good 6 and 2 and Tipped in as you mentioned in part one of the scoreboard Michelle and we'll talk about it here in just a minute.
6:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Tipped in a very good 4 and 4.
6:55
[SPEAKER_02]: There's 3 and 0 against class 2 18s.
6:58
[SPEAKER_00]: All those teams, they all have offensive weapons.
7:03
[SPEAKER_00]: that can challenge other teams.
7:07
[SPEAKER_02]: And if I had to guess, I would say that Tipton might be the fifth best team, but they also could win that sectional.
7:13
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how balanced I think that sectional is.
7:17
[SPEAKER_02]: To me, Eastbrook, Alexandria, and Eastern are the three favorites.
7:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Tipton and Rochester may be a half level behind, even that, maybe a quarter level.
7:29
[SPEAKER_02]: It's even at all.
7:30
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just so even.
7:37
[SPEAKER_02]: And before we get back to Michele to talk about Frank in 40 to 13 win over Blackford, Big Night for Marty Wells first win as Frank in head coach.
7:49
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm pretty sure, although I probably couldn't say this with 100% certainty.
7:55
[SPEAKER_02]: The first head coach in CIC history to win a game
8:07
[SPEAKER_00]: that's probably correct.
8:08
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't even, I can't even name one who's done it at two.
8:13
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure there are some, but.
8:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, there might be, you probably, there probably are if we would go back before our time.
8:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe, but I doubt it.
8:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, not three, but there might have been one before our time that we had a couple.
8:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, for sure.
8:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
8:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Definitely could have.
8:35
[SPEAKER_02]: Especially if it was kind of at the borderline of the old conference that included some of those other school, you know what I mean when it first started and then there were so the war thousand play myths and yeah hunting tens and so we mentioned that before the season when we were at stage 22 with goat wells that
8:57
[SPEAKER_02]: He could actually have a pretty good team and B.O.N.7 going into the final two regular season games.
9:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Not that his team has been very good this year.
9:05
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think they were very good.
9:09
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think they have been very good although certainly have been improving from week to week.
9:14
[SPEAKER_02]: But nice to be able to finally get that win.
9:17
[SPEAKER_02]: And with a good chance to win another one next Friday against Elwood.
9:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and you know, great it.
9:26
[SPEAKER_00]: It might not seem great now, but it's going to pay dividends.
9:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I think next year for Coach Wells, the experience that the freshman quarterback, Rowan, Brandon, has gotten in place of standsbury is going to be invaluable and pay off next year.
9:43
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, and then we struggled some this year, which you would expect.
9:48
[SPEAKER_00]: It's hard to be a freshman to go in against the team.
9:56
[SPEAKER_00]: undergoing a change in any way and rebuild a little bit in some ways and his experience that he's getting this year will pay dividends should pay dividends for Frank's in next year not that maybe they'll come out and have any better start because they're still going to be young and still improving and it's still the CIC and they're front part of the schedule
10:26
[SPEAKER_00]: make for a better year, maybe offensively, maybe they won't struggle as much next year.
10:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Early.
10:34
[SPEAKER_02]: Think they have some talent in the younger classes, and that's a proud program that deserves success.
10:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
10:43
[SPEAKER_02]: And OCO went to five and three.
10:44
[SPEAKER_02]: They've kind of been an effort thought in the CIC, but that's a really good team.
10:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it is, you know, I think that I think O'Kill is a team that is good, just is not maybe quite to be able to put.
11:05
[SPEAKER_00]: put four complete quarters together.
11:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, get them, you know, a little bit of a level, half a, you know, I just kept them like a level down.
11:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, they have a chance to prove me wrong.
11:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess these are the next week.
11:19
[SPEAKER_02]: So, and they have a really tough sectional as well with lawyers, but just in a while heritage.
11:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
11:36
[SPEAKER_02]: Before we get to the Blue Devils, quick word on Westerns, went over Logan's port tonight.
11:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Westerns going from winless last year to who's your conference champions to out.
11:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I know big win for the Panthers, especially since they did it with that their all-state running back who is done for the year.
12:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, huge win.
12:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Austin Colby has just done a really good job there.
12:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, um, you know, I think he can, uh, this can be the start of, you know, rebuilding and getting Western back to where they've been, you know, in the past and huge strides from a year ago, but I'm also going to say this, the who's your conference.
12:32
[SPEAKER_00]: has some good teams, but it's not as strong as it has been, you look central Catholic is just not very good.
12:42
[SPEAKER_00]: They're very young this year.
12:44
[SPEAKER_00]: West Lafayette is below West Lafayette standards.
12:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what, I don't really know what's happened to Logan's port.
12:53
[SPEAKER_00]: You
12:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Tellspinning here at the end of the season.
13:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Team that is really good.
13:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I think is Hamilton Heights, and I think Twin Lakes really good.
13:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, great win by the Panthers tonight.
13:10
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to have a little have a tough time themselves and a sexual.
13:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Show you that are really good back and forth game.
13:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Kind of a defensive battle with some really big offensive plays.
13:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the first half was like the team both teams could kind of move the ball from like 15 to 20 to the opponent's 15 to 20 and then they get down in there and then the defense is which is Titan and not give you anything.
13:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Heights actually they used their first kind of big
13:51
[SPEAKER_00]: a big run by AJ Flanagan to go up six to zero and titans Nathan Hawkins, he blocked the P.A.T.
14:00
[SPEAKER_00]: on the instrument kick off, Isaiah Mahaney picked it up and his own seven, he ran off, what's sprinting up the right sideline, cut back, and across the field and then took it in.
14:15
[SPEAKER_00]: for a 93-yard kickoff return, broken fur, made the P-A-T, tipped and is up seven to six, blue devils have a chance to add to their lead late.
14:27
[SPEAKER_00]: They're actually facing like a fourth and three, fourth and five, they're going to go for it with 38 seconds remaining in the half, they get a fall start, some a player jumped and it was very obvious.
14:37
[SPEAKER_00]: So, back some months, so they decided to attempt to feel gold,
14:45
[SPEAKER_00]: height skits the ball.
14:46
[SPEAKER_00]: It's 20.
14:46
[SPEAKER_00]: They complete a long pass plate.
14:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Get down to the tipten.
14:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I think the four yard line with 3.6 seconds to go.
14:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Instead, they don't like to throw it.
14:58
[SPEAKER_00]: They elect to run it.
15:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Jack Roach who I saw had a really good game for tipten offensive defensive line.
15:07
[SPEAKER_00]: He tackles.
15:10
[SPEAKER_00]: AJ Flanagan for a one-year loss is the halftime expires to the blue devils go in seven to six lead second half of course more scoring Tipton's big problem.
15:23
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the second half was they really didn't have Feel you know really good field position though They heights might make a long past play or whatever and then might not score off of it, but it kind of changed field position
15:38
[SPEAKER_00]: because they'd get that in there and took this defense a couple times, stopped them on downs inside the red zone like inside the 15.
15:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So you don't get good starting field position there.
15:51
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, the big difference in the game was a piccics by the huskies that took the game
16:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I say that was the last touchdown, it was the pick six was a 19 13 game pick six came just around midfield and ran it back and made it 26 13 a great game.
16:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the hammer it was a good hammer game.
16:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's what you want when you have two rivals kind of backyard rivals and really I've said this Hamilton Heights has replaced everybody else and is really tips and
16:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I think their number one rival, even though they're a larger school and I think Tipton's closer to falling down to single-aid and heights is closer to eventually moving up to 4a, so that will be interesting.
16:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
16:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Great game.
16:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I was a nice atmosphere was heights to see in your night.
16:54
[SPEAKER_00]: There was a there's a great crowd.
16:56
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the one thing you can usually pretty much guarantee when tipping and heights play each other.
17:01
[SPEAKER_00]: They draw really good crowds.
17:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, the kind of crowds that, you know, tip to use to draw tip to know what you should draw before.
17:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it's, you know, Downfall.
17:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, before they're downfall.
17:20
[SPEAKER_02]: And the Blue Devils finished the radio season next week at Benton Central long drive, but should be able to finish the regular season over the win and multi-hights as a chance to get the fifth win of the season at West Lafayette.
17:33
[SPEAKER_02]: A nice challenge for them heading into the postseason.
17:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I actually, I think both teams are going to win.
17:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Tipton is, I mean, you see what Central Catholic did the Benton Central, though that we know what Tipton did to Central Catholic a week ago.
17:47
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be tipped and it's really third, really long road trip, you know, they've already had to go to Heritage and rinse a layer back to back.
17:56
[SPEAKER_00]: And so then they'll go to Bent Central, you know, close at the regular season, who's your conference small school division play.
18:04
[SPEAKER_00]: The nice thing is, I think it will,
18:08
[SPEAKER_00]: that game will end in a running clock.
18:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I think if Tipton has the opportunity to take a 35 point lead in the first half, I think they'll take it just so they can get home earlier in the second act because that's a long trip and they'll want to get ready for the sexual, their first round of opponent and depending on who they draw, you know,
18:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Aaron and I got to talk just a little bit tonight, um, there was, um, yeah, I took a detour.
18:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to say a whole lot on, on air just, but there was a little, something, a little medical thing that happened.
18:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So we weren't able to do a true post game interview, and it wasn't a medical thing with Aaron, by the way, and everybody is fine and home and everything now.
19:07
[SPEAKER_00]: but we did talk a little bit and he was Aaron was, he was police, he thought that seven or eight plays was the difference between winning or losing tonight.
19:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Protected him, he was very proud because they had opportunities to win that game.
19:25
[SPEAKER_00]: They were able to run the ball on Hamilton nights.
19:27
[SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't sure if they would be able to run the ball.
19:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess Hamilton nights and they did run it was success tonight.
19:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Chase Hussie did an outstanding job carrying the load.
19:37
[SPEAKER_00]: And he did a great job blocking in past protection for Quinn.
19:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, really, I...
19:44
[SPEAKER_00]: When I think, you know, I don't think he didn't get sacked once I don't believe so they did a really nice job of protecting him and set a great game.
19:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Heights.
19:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they're junior quarterback through some nice balls.
20:03
[SPEAKER_00]: They made some nice catches.
20:06
[SPEAKER_00]: They're linemen that are right.
20:08
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to heights is going to graduate some key players.
20:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, I know Tipton's.
20:12
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Hussie's going to graduate.
20:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Jack Roach is going to graduate, but tip this still has a lot of young players that have played a lot of RC this year that will return next year.
20:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Heights did have like 68 kids on their roster.
20:25
[SPEAKER_00]: 38 of those were freshman and sophomore and I know they had to have a really nice size senior class because they recognized all of the senior class which surprised me because they did it a half time of the game.
20:41
[SPEAKER_00]: They recognized the cheerleaders and the football players and their parents a half time and that game.
20:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I went on the put me in against sports and I
20:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I said it surprises me because if I'm coach-cursioner, I want my players in the locker room in half time.
20:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want this.
20:57
[SPEAKER_00]: See, you and I want this done before the game, not during half time, but yeah, great game.
21:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Two really good teams.
21:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I think two teams that are headed in the right direction, heading into the postseason.
21:08
[SPEAKER_00]: And LaPelle, host, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
21:18
[SPEAKER_02]: And lapel is unbeaten Michelle for the first time in program history through eight weeks.
21:23
[SPEAKER_02]: They host a really tough Eastern Hancock team.
21:26
[SPEAKER_02]: Next Friday, one of their toughest tests of the season, and a potential sectional rival a sectional that includes 7-1 Triton Central 7-1 Winchester 7-1 North Eastern 6-2
21:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I think lapel will depend, it's going to depend on the draw on Sunday because I think if lapel and he's in a handcock with draw each other and play again the following week, I think both of those teams will, I wouldn't be surprised next Friday for a kind of a very vanilla game, but I do think lapel is better, I think lapel will be Eastern handcock
22:13
[SPEAKER_00]: is the class of that section a little bit um i know i don't think they came up short last year am i right they did they know no lipo on search officer they didn't win section they should repeat it like i said great you know we've talked about it i've said it all year
22:44
[SPEAKER_00]: is an athlete and a lot of his success comes running and even on returns and stuff like that.
22:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Devon Craig Heath rose a good football.
22:52
[SPEAKER_00]: He throws a really good football.
22:54
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a balanced type of quarterback and I just think that, you know, to be honest, I think the only thing that might really stop or it could hurt Lapelle in this section would just be really bad weather, or you can't throw the ball.
23:08
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a good point, but they've also run the ball very well this year with Miller and they've also put really good defense this year, something they kind of lacked last year.
23:20
[SPEAKER_02]: They're giving up 11 points of game this season.
23:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's that's really impressive and they're going to be, you know, they're going to be a tough out into a, um, I think their sectional goes south
23:38
[SPEAKER_00]: like in a regional or anything, right?
23:40
[SPEAKER_02]: That's correct.
23:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and that's better to be in the South.
23:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I know Brown South Central is down there, and I know that you really like that football coach and everything, but I think the South isn't easier path to go through than having to try to go through at a central and the North.
23:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe, but Lutheran would be in the regional Brown Center, or Lint would be in the semi state that is definitely not easy.
24:04
[SPEAKER_00]: No, definitely not easy, but I don't think I know both Lutheran and Adam Central jumped up together.
24:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Adam Central is fine at the 2A level when it comes to other, you know, the tough, I'm not so sure that Lutheran is white at that same level.
24:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I really do think I do think
24:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Michelle, according to the Sagarin ratings, Browns town, Linton, Lappelle, and Andrean are all ranked higher than Adam Central.
24:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I know it's just a Sagarin rating, but I'm just saying.
24:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, until somebody with what Adam Central has done the last few years, until somebody beats them, they are the team to beat.
24:51
[SPEAKER_02]: I think you're probably right, but I think this is Brown's sounds just feeling.
24:58
[SPEAKER_02]: That's another game I wanted to talk about before we go and it's really late, but you've been all tonight's 24 Yorktown, 22 crazy game, Rylan Keyesling, one of the best defensive players in the area proved it tonight with four sacks and then the game winning stop on a potential two point conversion that would have tied the game
25:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I want to tremendous your for the Arabians and like, you know, the bad thing is they could have to turn around in two weeks and play York, and again, really don't hold.
25:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I really hope that's not the case that should be the championship game.
25:39
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, that's one of the, that's one of the big reasons I really
25:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And I know where everybody's, we can't really do it's hard to do.
25:48
[SPEAKER_00]: It's one of the big reasons I would be for, I'm for seating at least the first to your team, you know, one and two in a, in a sexual, because when you have a, and it's such disparity, that should really be your championship game.
25:57
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's
26:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Michelle, I understand the I just say is wanting to have every sport the same where every team's in the postseason and get their shot in the postseason, but football's different and not every team belongs in the postseason.
26:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, it's better because Greg, I actually, I mean, when I was in school, it was the cluster system and the cluster system and we need more teams.
26:27
[SPEAKER_02]: We don't want to do like the cluster system.
26:30
[SPEAKER_02]: What we want to do is eliminate the teams that don't belong in a postseason.
26:34
[SPEAKER_02]: That's it.
26:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think one of the things that would go to that is really because if you look a lot of those teams that don't belong and you look at their numbers is again, the IHSA A and he needs to do a better job.
26:47
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you have that,
26:50
[SPEAKER_00]: and get and promote and really go for this eight-man football, for the smaller schools to do eight-man football, and it's just it, I just think that you'd get them out of there and it makes it different because, okay, but, I mean, look, Edinburgh, we had to, I mean, they drop football for the rest of the season, you know, they don't have enough family players.
27:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I just say, promote you, you offer, but really get out there,
27:20
[SPEAKER_00]: to these schools and these corporations, faith Christians should be playing eight men football.
27:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Tri-central should be playing eight men football.
27:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Whether they want to or not, their numbers dictate they should be playing eight men football.
27:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think if I had to say they need a promoted and they need to say, hey, here's a roster number.
27:38
[SPEAKER_00]: If you don't,
27:40
[SPEAKER_00]: if you don't top it, you're eight man football.
27:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Because we all know Greg, you lose players.
27:47
[SPEAKER_00]: And it doesn't even have to be all season, but you do lose players to injury and illness sometimes through the course of the season.
27:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Then it becomes dangerous if you only have 13, 14 kids to play.
27:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Especially if you're going against a bigger school, like say, if you were
28:04
[SPEAKER_00]: taking a team like that and you have to go play as for like, what's 60, like, Hamilton Heights, such a, you're just, it's not a good thing.
28:17
[SPEAKER_02]: To your point on, uh, Hamilton Heights in Yorktown should be the sectional championship.
28:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Pentecostanized staggering ratings 82, Yorktown's is 80, which,
28:28
[SPEAKER_02]: proved out exactly that score tonight.
28:31
[SPEAKER_02]: Third place, Beach Grove is 59.
28:35
[SPEAKER_02]: So Yorktown, congratulations.
28:37
[SPEAKER_02]: By the way, we mentioned what a great job they've done at Penelton Heights, Yorktown too.
28:43
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, they're the only team to score double digit points against a new pal this year.
28:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, you know, it is a great job.
28:53
[SPEAKER_00]: by both of those schools.
28:55
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, it's, yeah, I mean, pills and heights, I think, little shocked by that this year.
29:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no, they lost last year, but what tremendous coaching job.
29:11
[SPEAKER_00]: This staff has done there.
29:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, coach.
29:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Coach Richmond has been a guest on the central Indiana sports report and man we're going to do a coach of the year the end of the year and I'm not saying he's going to be our coach of the year, but if he's not it's going to have to be somebody who's had a day really good job.
29:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
29:34
[SPEAKER_02]: And we're going to close out with the who's your heartland conference Eastern is going to.
29:40
[SPEAKER_02]: win the conference championship with a win at Clinton Prairie next Friday, assuming they get that job done, no guarantee Clinton Prairie is not a slouch, but most likely Eastern's going to win that game, and then Carol and Sheridan will play each other and Sheridan the other one will share a piece of the conference championship.
30:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that shared in Carol game, that's going to be one very physical game, two teams, very similar and kind of what they do and how they play football, be very interesting.
30:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be interested to see how shared and comes back after this kind of a loss at Easter.
30:25
[SPEAKER_02]: By the way, the Sheridan is going to be a huge favorite in their sectional.
30:30
[SPEAKER_02]: Clinton Perry might be the second best team.
30:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
30:34
[SPEAKER_02]: So, Yikes.
30:37
[SPEAKER_02]: It also has 10 lead Clinton Central and Cloverdale.
30:42
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, you sure.
30:42
[SPEAKER_00]: You sure should be rolling through that sectional.
30:44
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like Eastern, which we'll not have an easy sectional.
30:49
[SPEAKER_00]: No.
30:50
[SPEAKER_00]: That's.
30:52
[SPEAKER_00]: disadvantage.
30:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
30:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Delphi is Delphi 2A.
30:55
[SPEAKER_02]: I believe so.
30:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
30:58
[SPEAKER_00]: You speak so.
30:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, that's the disadvantage for Eastern because they in the Delphi are the only schools of, you know, that are 2A.
31:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody else is one A in that conference.
31:11
[SPEAKER_02]: I believe they're both small, two-ay, but two-ay schools, but yeah, Delphi is in a sectional with Southmont, Western Booth, all right, hold on, we'll mention one more thing before we go, and I don't
31:38
[SPEAKER_02]: If three ravers conference comes down to week nine, Rochester, McConnell Qua, McConnell Qua has kind of been living on the edge no more so than tonight when they came back from 28, nothing down against Manchester, a Manchester team, seven quite a season.
31:54
[SPEAKER_02]: But it looks like to me, Rochester's defense is legit.
31:58
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think they're going to win that game.
32:01
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I think they probably will too.
32:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And if they don't, it's going to be another very close game,
32:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm kind of a manchester game was tight tonight, I mean, they're not, I know I think they kind of blew out Rochester last year, that's not happening this year.
32:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Rochester has given up this year zero seven zero seven zero zero fourteen and seven they're only lost seven to two to tip a canoe valley but they've also are averaging 42 points a game and they're way too good for the three river's conference this year not a very good conference but still those are impressive numbers in northwestern
32:48
[SPEAKER_00]: No.
32:49
[SPEAKER_00]: No, but you know, I think we're interested because I think all of the conferences that are mainly in our area, you know, that we focus on, they're all down a little bit.
33:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think he's not.
33:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, a little bit.
33:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Massing grants not what Massing grant has been the last two years.
33:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, because they're playing against four other really good teams.
33:14
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I know, but I mean, they just, I mean, like, mass and grant the last two years doesn't let what happened tonight happen.
33:22
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see in the post-season.
33:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, I think you think they're going to make a big run.
33:26
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm talking about the entire CIC.
33:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, oh, in the post-season, yeah, we will see.
33:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And they, they're probably the only one that I shouldn't say.
33:37
[SPEAKER_00]: They're probably the one that's not down there, probably.
33:42
[SPEAKER_00]: maybe kind of even keel with last year.
33:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Because yeah, it's kind of going like it did last year, the separation from, yeah.
33:53
[SPEAKER_02]: And Mr. Finn and Walsh not as good as they were last year for sure.
33:56
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
33:56
[SPEAKER_02]: But Brooke is a lot better.
33:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's a better show.
33:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
33:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, well, I think was better.
34:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Alexander is definitely better than they were last year.
34:05
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the CIC overall is probably, this is definitely a better year.
34:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm interested to, I'm interested to see how Alexandria come turn up time, how much success they have on the ground.
34:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Because that's, you know, that's kind of what you last year in the section when they played tipped and they could not run the ball, tipped it could, they could not run the ball.
34:28
[SPEAKER_02]: By the way, then I don't know if I'd ever run the ball with all those white receivers.
34:33
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they had a pair of white receivers last year who were both incredible.
34:38
[SPEAKER_02]: And now they're their second and third receivers.
34:41
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how good they are.
34:43
[SPEAKER_00]: They are, and it is.
34:45
[SPEAKER_00]: But you also have to remember, they run a unique offense.
34:48
[SPEAKER_00]: The CIC is not a passing conference, which I think is what hurts them.
34:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I like is, but in that sectional, there's eastern and tipped in that run the same type of offences and I have the same kind of athletes at the wide, you know, out, a wide receiver.
35:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Which is probably why you started on that section last year.
35:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
35:08
[SPEAKER_02]: And has the chance to win it again this year?
35:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
35:11
[SPEAKER_00]: And I mean, so I think that's it.
35:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I would like to see, I do think I like don't give me wrong, you know, really good
35:24
[SPEAKER_00]: with that that can, you know, throw.
35:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think that that's, you know, that's the interesting part.
35:30
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the one thing that maybe, you know, hurts them a hurts them a little bit, playing in a conference that does not have a lot of teams that does that and, you know, it will be, it will be interesting.
35:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess some good, good teams, well coach teams in that section.
35:56
[SPEAKER_02]: Michelle, let's talk about it all again Sunday.
35:58
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
