- 1:30[SPEAKER_00]: The Lwood Panthers are now 9 and 11 after a 5552 win over Providence, Christo Ray, Saturday night, and downtown Indianapolis.
- 1:39[SPEAKER_00]: The Panthers now 3 and 0 in Indian.
- 1:41[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe they should play every game there.
- 1:43[SPEAKER_00]: Their ninth win is most of any Lwood team under Coach Vanskiak in his fourth year.
- 1:50[SPEAKER_00]: And the most since going 12 and 10 and 2013, 14 underland and Carroll.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_00]: They went to and won and their three day stretch of a game every night and are now three and three and their last six games.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_00]: Things don't ease up much this week with a game of Wednesday at home against Anderson Prep at 730 and then Friday against one of the top teams in the state Oak Hill.
- 2:18[SPEAKER_00]: the CIC Champions visit on February 20th, even if Lwood was to upset the Golden Eagles, O'Kill still the outright central Indian conference champions.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_00]: And then the season concludes the regular season that is, Saturday night against Cowan, the draw for the sectional is next Sunday.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_00]: But what a win it was on Saturday night.
- 2:40[SPEAKER_00]: Probably shouldn't even have gone into overtime, Elwood had a four point lead with about 30 seconds left,
- 2:46[SPEAKER_00]: Apparently they forgot to start the clock otherwise the time probably runs out on PCR instead They got it steal off an inbound pass and we're able to send the game into over time Elwood got down early in the first over time, but battled back behind a big shot by blaze Jones PCR had a shot to win the game that missed so we went to a second over time and Elwood Outscored the wolves nine to six behind
- 3:15[SPEAKER_00]: Five points from Blaze Jones, including a big, three-point play, and a couple of late Liam Cannon free throws that sealed the victory.
- 3:25[SPEAKER_00]: With the third game and three days, it was apparently just a little too much for.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_00]: Bryce Schueler, who came into the game on fire, but wasn't able to contribute to the scoring column on Saturday night.
- 3:39[SPEAKER_00]: Instead it was Corbin level, who was the leading score with 17 points, lays Jones, finished with 15 and also hit two big three-pointers in the fourth quarter to give the Panthers the lead.
- 3:52[SPEAKER_00]: Connor Wooten scored eight no-a-cap Shaw finished with seven big points, six in the second quarter to help the Panthers overcome their early slow start, and one free throw in overtime that was critical.
- 4:08[SPEAKER_00]: Liam Cannon also scored to his two free throws, late in the second overtime, sealed the victory.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_00]: Late Wednesday night or early Thursday, we will have the L-Wood Panthers report where we'll catch up with Coach Vanskyok following Wednesday's night's home game against the Anderson Prep Jets.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_00]: Please stay tuned for L-Wood Head Coach Ryan Vanskyok.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_00]: double overtime win on Saturday night Ryan had to be first of all just fantastic to get the win and a bit of a relief after three straight days and all those next just periods.
- 4:50[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I told the coach was unlike I don't know if I could do another overtime.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_01]: Craziness at the craziness.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_01]: If the kids battled back and found a way when we got down by 12
- 5:04[SPEAKER_01]: points or so, with Struggling or kids as legs were tired and they were dead, but credit to some of our bench players had to come off the bench, we had three dudes final out.
- 5:17[SPEAKER_01]: And man, so many kids just stepped up in critical moments and it was just great to see it was a total team effort.
- 5:25[SPEAKER_01]: So it's just one of those games that you hope you come up but come on on top because we're dead in the other night and just excited for our kids.
- 5:35[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's win number nine and that's the first time since 2013 at what teams at nine wins in a season.
- 5:43[SPEAKER_00]: Congratulations on that.
- 5:45[SPEAKER_00]: It looks like you got off to a slow start.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_00]: How are you able to climb out of the hole?
- 5:50[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we really struggled.
- 5:52[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, all of our job shots for this flat, Bryce Schueller, who's been our engine in the last couple of games.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, he could just barely move his legs.
- 6:01[SPEAKER_01]: Third quarter, Corbing out hot, and then blaze it to critical threes and the fourth quarter that finally give us the lead.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_01]: We were in a lot of foul trouble all night.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_01]: you know again the kids just kept battling battling battling a lot of credit to no capsule again freshman coming off the bench and he had mistakes but he's going to have mistakes he's a freshman he's never been in that type of situation before and one thing about Noah is he just continues the battle and play hard no matter what happens and that's the thing I love the most about that kid who else played well for you coach?
- 6:39[SPEAKER_01]: Corbin shot them all really well.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_01]: I thought Braden at you send it a really good job on the defense of rebounds and so to Connor Wooten Those are two critical spots Jake Bell came off the bench and get his great minutes sport of basket did a good job in the inside I got to get credit to Liam Canan JV player Great kid came off the bench and over time he had two critical free throws
- 7:06[SPEAKER_01]: and then the same thing with Jackson Magger, Broden Dial, Keegan Daphne Fort, some of those kids have not played a lot and again, they came off the minutes and came off the bench and gave us great minutes.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_01]: So I was pleased with all of our kids.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was a total team effort and I thought all of our kids did something great to help us win the game.
- 7:28[SPEAKER_01]: And just that really good end of the week, right?
- 7:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, that team is, I mean,
- 7:35[SPEAKER_01]: But the coach there does a tremendous job, but they have two kids that are six, eight, six, seven.
- 7:42[SPEAKER_01]: One's going to Manchester on a full ride.
- 7:45[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they just got some unbelievable talented kids there.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_01]: And I felt like our kids just did a really good job of battling with having four games in a week.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_01]: The legs were dead, but again, they found a way to battle back and give them an opportunity and a chance to win and credit to our kids.
- 8:04[SPEAKER_00]: And especially through the adversity, but so close to being 3 and 0 on the weekend.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, you look back at it, man.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_01]: It's been a wild ride until the coaches are like,
- 8:18[SPEAKER_01]: And there's this been so much diversity every week, every day we come in and it's something.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_01]: And just for our kids, the continuing to keep fighting and battling, I mean, you look back and we probably should have the blue river game, you should have Muncie Burris, and there's a couple other things that we should have had.
- 8:35[SPEAKER_01]: But the end goal is in our kids, know it, we don't care where we're, what we're doing in the regular season is when that sectional week starts.
- 8:44[SPEAKER_01]: We did not want to sectional seats at 60's.
- 8:48[SPEAKER_01]: We want to go try and get better every week.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_01]: We got two weeks left to continue to get better to try to go knock somebody out from the section.
- 8:55[SPEAKER_01]: We don't have a chance to go compete for a sectional championship.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_01]: So that is a high task.
- 9:00[SPEAKER_01]: But I think our kids are up for the challenge and I think we're going to continue to keep jelly and getting better and hopefully have a shot to do that come the next couple of weeks.
- 9:11[SPEAKER_00]: you guys got to be a little fatigued, but it's not like it's an easy week coming up either Anderson Prep on Tuesday, Oak Hill on Friday, Cowan on Saturday, at least they're all at home.
- 9:24[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's going to be great to be at home.
- 9:26[SPEAKER_01]: Wednesday, APA is really athletic, really quick.
- 9:30[SPEAKER_01]: They just beat Southern Royal Saturday by 20 and again, we got beat by Southern Wells, but they play well, but
- 9:36[SPEAKER_01]: That's going to be a tall task.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_01]: We just got to play smart and play fundamentally sound to give us a chance to win.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_01]: Friday, I mean, you got the number one or two team in the state coming in.
- 9:47[SPEAKER_01]: I think Gary, 21st century, might have surpassed them.
- 9:51[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe I've not looked at the polls.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_01]: Coach Rembarker is tremendous coach that team is deep.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_01]: I think the second five to five their 10 can probably start on most other teams in the state.
- 10:05[SPEAKER_01]: So they're really deep.
- 10:08[SPEAKER_01]: He does a great job.
- 10:09[SPEAKER_01]: Those kids are athletic and quick and they're going to pressure us the whole time and we've got to just be able to handle it to give yourself an opportunity.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_01]: Then Saturday senior night for us.
- 10:18[SPEAKER_01]: So, I mean, that's a big game for our kids.
- 10:21[SPEAKER_01]: Challenge done a really good job.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_01]: But Sharon has a really good program and we've got some really good guards.
- 10:27[SPEAKER_01]: And again, that's going to be another challenge.
- 10:29[SPEAKER_01]: So we're going to see what our kids are made out of.
- 10:32[SPEAKER_01]: We're giving them Monday off to try to relax and heal their body.
- 10:35[SPEAKER_01]: And then Tuesday, we're going to come back and work.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_01]: And then, of course, Wednesday, play.
- 10:40[SPEAKER_01]: And then Thursday, try to prepare for Oak Hill and
- 10:48[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks so much to Coach fans, guys.
