- 2:31[SPEAKER_01]: The Allied Panthers made their first trip ever to Indiana School for the Deaf and came away with an ugly 45 to 40 victory over the Orioles on Tuesday night in Indianapolis.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_01]: The win was Elwood 6th of the year after winning just 5 all of last year.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_01]: They're now 6 and 5 and above 500 at this point in a season for the first time since they
- 2:56[SPEAKER_01]: The Panthers last winning season came in 2014, and that is within reach, but a tough slice of schedules ahead with Alexandria, Mrs. Sinwall, and Frankden the next three.
- 3:07[SPEAKER_01]: Again, we'll hear more from Coach Van Skyak on Alexandria later in this podcast and on Thursday's Elwood Panthers report.
- 3:16[SPEAKER_01]: Elwood led all but a few minutes and Tuesday's contest.
- 3:20[SPEAKER_01]: The Orioles took a 33-31 lead by scoring the first 4 points of the 4th quarter.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_01]: And as ugly as the offensive performance was throughout the night, and it was ugly.
- 3:32[SPEAKER_01]: The Panthers came away with several big plays down the stretch of this one.
- 3:38[SPEAKER_01]: I came Gallegos 3 on an assist from Brighton Echeson, gave Elwood the lead for good.
- 3:44[SPEAKER_01]: Connor Wooden extended the lead to 36-33 with an offensive putback.
- 3:49[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't keep track of rebounds because I was taking video, but I know Connor had to have had at least 10, probably a dozen rebounds in this win.
- 4:00[SPEAKER_01]: After the deaf who's just cut the lead to one, Wooten scored in the post on a nice entry pass from Ethan Cassus, then blazed Joan scored in the lane on a nice move to make it 40-35 with 3-42 left.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_01]: It was 41 to 37 with a minute and a half to go when Cassis got a steel and turned it into a layout basket to increase the advantage to 6.
- 4:23[SPEAKER_01]: The Keaton Mashknock down his third 3 pointer of the contest to give the Orioles 1 last shot.
- 4:30[SPEAKER_01]: Mash had a game high 17 points for the Orioles who fall to 1 and 8 with the loss.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_01]: After a turnover mash lined up a potential game tying 3, with 4.9 seconds left, but Gaiagos blocked the shot, Cases got the rebound, and had a chance to seal the game at the freethrow line, but missed both.
- 4:51[SPEAKER_01]: However, Braden Etchison came up with the offensive rebound, got fouled, went to the foul line and swished a couple of free throws.
- 5:01[SPEAKER_01]: Dice it.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_01]: Aegos led Lwood with 10 points and got them off to a nice start with 5 points in the first border.
- 5:08[SPEAKER_01]: The Panthers led 12 to 9 after 1.
- 5:12[SPEAKER_01]: Blaze Jones scored 4 of a 6 points in the second quarter and Corbin level hit a big 3 and Lwood's advantage was 19 to 16 and a half time.
- 5:21[SPEAKER_01]: The Panthers had a couple of 6 points leads in the third quarter, 26 to 20 after a
- 5:31[SPEAKER_01]: and a cast of three with 58 seconds left in the third, but them up 31 to 26 before a mash three in the final seconds, cut the margin to two, heading into the final quarter.
- 5:46[SPEAKER_01]: Cast has played a really nice floor game and finished with nine points as did Schueler, Wooten and Jones finished with six points of peace.
- 5:56[SPEAKER_01]: Please stay tuned for Head Coach Ryan Vanskiak, and please join us Thursday for the Elwood Panthers Report.
- 6:08[SPEAKER_01]: Here with the Ryan Vanskiak, after a big 45-40 win over Indiana School for the Deaf and Coach, it wasn't pretty, but you made plays down the stretch.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was ugly, but the kids found a way of win.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: We looked up Burr as last week, and...
- 6:23[SPEAKER_00]: We let that one get away in the critical moments and we feel like the kids did a better job of fighting and doing the right things that we need to do.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_00]: Still we're making critical errors and critical moments.
- 6:37[SPEAKER_00]: And those are different things that we're going to continue to work on with the kids.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_00]: We had the lead and we forced to turn the ball over twice within 15 seconds when they were in 5,000.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_00]: All we had to do is move the basketball, add a foul, instead we made ill of ice throws.
- 6:55[SPEAKER_00]: Different things that we can work on and get better, and the great thing is in these tight games is we can go back on film and show them and talk about it and try to fix it.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_00]: Good news is you dominated the boards.
- 7:06[SPEAKER_00]: The bad news is every time you got an offense of rebound you missed the two foot.
- 7:10[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we missed tons of layups tonight and it's been all season.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_00]: It's even impracticed.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_00]: It just amazes me.
- 7:18[SPEAKER_00]: But we're going to continue to keep working on the kids and powering him.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_00]: powering up the shots.
- 7:23[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to get the pad out this week, probably tomorrow and just hit them with it and make them explode in the finish and we're going to have to go old school I guess every mess left, I remember my shot around the ram was going to be a punishment going into practice because if we're going to win games, we have got the finish around the ram and that's been a major killer, it killed us up Burris at the end, it's killed us another critical moment, so we got to do much better job of finishing.
- 7:46[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, for those who weren't here, this was a no-contest if you just make those put back leaves.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_00]: We, if we are like our worst enemy, we get up, have a lead, and we make critical mistakes, and then they come back, and it's like every game.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_00]: So we can't wait, and we hopefully see all the kids, and if they can put it together in a full 32 minute game, we feel like we can knock off anybody comes sexual time, but we've not seen that yet.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_00]: We keep striving to get there, and hopefully one of these days we do.
- 8:15[SPEAKER_00]: huge block shot by Ethan there as they tried to tie the game with a three pointer late.
- 8:19[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Ethan's been playing really well.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_00]: I give him a lot of credit.
- 8:24[SPEAKER_00]: His mentality and mindset's really changed from last year.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_00]: He's really grown and matured a lot.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_00]: He's been a key maker for us this year, so he's done a really good job, a really proud of him.
- 8:36[SPEAKER_00]: He had a tough stretch last year and he came back and worked hard this summer and has didn't really get things for us, so Kudos to that kid.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_01]: Then you have a three-point lead, you're at the free throw and the free throw line in the final seconds, miss both of what a huge rebound by Braiden.
- 8:53[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I buried in such a great kid.
- 8:55[SPEAKER_00]: One of my all-time favorite kids is just super respectful.
- 8:59[SPEAKER_00]: Does tries to do things the right way.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_00]: We were on him and we've been on him for weeks of you got to rebound the basketball.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_00]: You are a big, even though you're not truly big.
- 9:09[SPEAKER_00]: And you got to go do those things for us.
- 9:11[SPEAKER_00]: And I felt like you did a tremendous job the nine critical moments of securing that rebounds for us.
- 9:17[SPEAKER_00]: And you're giving us extra possessions.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_00]: And of course, if he doesn't do that, who knows what's the game ends up at that moment.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_01]: The good thing is, 6 and 5 through 11 games, you've got to be thrilled with that.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_00]: The kids just bypassed their went a little from last year, we only won 5 last year and we could have kicked ourselves in our butts last year of so many game games that we felt like we should have won and we didn't do it because of critical mistakes we made.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_00]: So, Kudos to our kids, but we're not happy we felt like we should be, we're not happy
- 9:48[SPEAKER_00]: eight and three at least seven and four.
- 9:51[SPEAKER_00]: We've let some slip away.
- 9:52[SPEAKER_00]: We've been in good games We just got put games together.
- 9:56[SPEAKER_00]: We got a tough stretch coming up.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_00]: Alexander is really good quick athletic They're gonna trap us the whole game We got to do a great job of taking care of the basketball, but we're gonna go in the mindset of a couple years ago We upset them on our home floor.
- 10:09[SPEAKER_00]: It's our winter homecoming, so it's gonna be a big game and we're gonna see what we're made out of
- 10:13[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, every game's big, conference games are even bigger, conference rivals, even bigger.
- 10:19[SPEAKER_00]: Even bigger, and there's a lot of them coming up, got Alexander Friday, the miss and all the following week, and then Frank then, that's a huge one too.
- 10:26[SPEAKER_00]: So I know Alexander is always circling on our kids, calendars, a huge game, coach curl does a tremendous job with those kids.
- 10:33[SPEAKER_00]: One of the best coaches in the state, Alexander is,
- 10:36[SPEAKER_00]: really blessed to have him.
- 10:38[SPEAKER_00]: He just gets his kids to play so hard and they're so quick and so athletic So it's gonna be a tall task for us, but we're gonna see what we're made out of.
- 10:46[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, one of the most athletic teams you'll play Now get up the floor.
- 10:49[SPEAKER_00]: They shoot it really well We definitely got to be one in time because you got to have a no board up the Alexandria.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_00]: They're taking out to a wide-up of Shearer and it's gonna be a made shot.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_00]: So
- 10:58[SPEAKER_00]: We got to do a tremendous job being one and done and then we got to slow down the basketball game a little bit and that's going to be the thing with our kids Is they're going to be pressured or are they going to get sped up or we're going to actually be able to dictate the tempo Or beat them two years ago.
- 11:12[SPEAKER_00]: I think the score was like in the mid 30s That's the score we need and that's the tempo.
- 11:17[SPEAKER_00]: We need to have a chance that set them last question coach Tell me about the experience of coming over here to the Indiana School of the Deaf and and what it was like for you in the kit
- 11:25[SPEAKER_00]: It was a great experience as one, I'm glad that we did.
- 11:29[SPEAKER_00]: It's just amazing watching those kids and coaches just talk and communicate to each other the whole game.
- 11:36[SPEAKER_00]: It was amazing for our kids to see Kudos to those kids, men those kids play hard.
- 11:42[SPEAKER_00]: They play it the right way.
- 11:43[SPEAKER_00]: And it was a great experience.
- 11:45[SPEAKER_00]: I'm glad we got to do it.
