Transcript
- 0:00[SPEAKER_04]: Quick editors note, part two of the scoreboard show will typically run on Saturday.
- 0:04[SPEAKER_04]: It's running on Sunday this week because it was my birthday and my wonderful wife took up my time on Saturday.
- 0:12[SPEAKER_04]: So thank you for the nice birthday Susie and sorry we're late.
- 0:16[SPEAKER_04]: It's going to happen sometimes.
- 0:21[SPEAKER_04]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report high school football fans for part two of our
- 0:29[SPEAKER_04]: Central India and a high school football week seven scoreboard show.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_04]: I'm joined by Michelle Garmin of the Tipton Tribune and I would call it her end.
- 0:38[SPEAKER_04]: Grant Shouse of the Action Sports Network.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_04]: Michelle had, had Tipton's 49 to 7 win over Lafayette Central Catholic and Grant and Kevin Helfrick called Mrs. Sinoa's 48 to nothing win over Elwood and we are going to talk a lot about the CIC tonight Grant.
- 0:56[SPEAKER_04]: But first I want to start with Tipton and Michelle interviewed Coach Tull after the game.
- 1:01[SPEAKER_04]: What's here for him right now?
- 1:03[SPEAKER_00]: I thought you were secondary.
- 1:05[SPEAKER_00]: It'll be fantastic job.
- 1:06[SPEAKER_00]: Openfield tackling, breaking down coverage.
- 1:09[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of said the tone.
- 1:11[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think it's really did.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_01]: I bought, uh, that's all coach Crawley, and, uh, coach Pierce, coach Pierce, their deepest back coach, and Coach Crawley, who is the coordinator that they have, uh, phenomenal game plan.
- 1:22[SPEAKER_01]: And then, uh, uh, our kids, our kids really execute, uh, I was very, very impressed with, uh,
- 1:32[SPEAKER_01]: They've played his best game, especially when he gets a good time with him on other medium-sever.
- 1:37[SPEAKER_01]: He didn't come up on a job, and he had me solo tonight.
- 1:39[SPEAKER_01]: I thought Zack Cambridge and played his best ball game of his career.
- 1:44[SPEAKER_01]: He's really come on.
- 1:46[SPEAKER_01]: I thought Quinn and Dakota Garmin played good safety, and I thought Parker Capshaw came in and really, really tackled well.
- 1:54[SPEAKER_01]: It was really physical and it was really happy to see that.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_01]: So yes, I thought,
- 2:00[SPEAKER_01]: Our secondary kind of set the tone and allowed us to be really aggressive in our front and put pressure on their freshman quarterback and that was kind of the defensive game plan.
- 2:11[SPEAKER_00]: And because of that, that led in the way the defense was able to do and stop them, your offense got a lot of nice short fields.
- 2:20[SPEAKER_01]: I had a lot of short fields and early we took advantage of that.
- 2:24[SPEAKER_01]: I was
- 2:24[SPEAKER_01]: really disappointed there at the end of the second quarter.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_01]: We had a couple of opportunities to punch a couple in and we did do so.
- 2:33[SPEAKER_01]: So that's going to get us beat at some point.
- 2:36[SPEAKER_01]: We've just got to keep working at it and I know that's a really bothers coach here and we work on it every week and we're going to find the ticket here and when we can start really, really being good in your red zone, we might be a difficult outcome tournament time.
- 2:52[SPEAKER_00]: How important was this win coming off the 3 game road trip like you had and knowing that you have a trip to heights next week and I think it was I think it was a huge win.
- 3:08[SPEAKER_01]: you know we played uh we were one in three in our last four games and you know I told the kids I said okay we're one in three uh we've lost a three really good football teams but we're still one in three and you know it doesn't feel good and uh I think tonight was just a really good confidence builder and uh
- 3:26[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's just one of the, you know, you sleep better tonight, you feel good about yourself.
- 3:30[SPEAKER_01]: It's just, we're gonna feel a lot better about ourselves and know that we've got a really good Hamilton Heights team.
- 3:37[SPEAKER_01]: Their record doesn't show it, but they've played one of the toughest schedules in 3A, and but it is the hammer game.
- 3:44[SPEAKER_01]: So I guarantee our kids will be very locked in this week.
- 3:49[SPEAKER_01]: We'll go down there with a mission in mind, we'll have to play really, really well.
- 3:53[SPEAKER_00]: The kind of defense has been pretty good this year.
- 3:55[SPEAKER_00]: The offense has been interesting.
- 3:58[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, it's, you know, it's, I think the, who's your confidence is pretty darn good this year.
- 4:03[SPEAKER_01]: You know, the Western and Twin Lakes and Hamilton Heights and Logan's board.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_01]: You always have West off yet.
- 4:09[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I mean, it's, uh, uh, so some of those games are hard to, hard to read, but, uh, uh, they've played a really tough schedule even.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_01]: I think they beat Logan's board last week.
- 4:17[SPEAKER_01]: So, I kind of thought that Logan's board might be the best team in the, in the entire league, but, uh, they beat them last week.
- 4:23[SPEAKER_01]: So, uh,
- 4:24[SPEAKER_01]: We'll certainly have our hands full, but also have our teams attention next week too.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_00]: Right now for your seniors, because I thought your seniors had a nice hand, did well and played a good role in this win tonight.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_01]: That's what's supposed to happen.
- 4:38[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of their night, and we said in the locker room that we honor your parents before the game.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_01]: You know, the big thing is, why don't you not only play for yourself, see how proud of your parent, how proud you can make your parents tonight.
- 4:52[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's because they're the reason you're here and, you know, this is, I told him, I also told him, I said, this is the last guaranteed game they have on this field.
- 5:00[SPEAKER_01]: The next two are on the road and you don't, you don't have any idea what's going to happen in this section.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_01]: We're also, we're not guaranteed of another home game, so, good for them, you know, that's
- 5:12[SPEAKER_01]: from a coaching perspective.
- 5:13[SPEAKER_01]: That's the way senior night's supposed to happen, right?
- 5:15[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_01]: Your senior groups posted a step up of the plate and play a really, really good ball game.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_04]: All right, Michelle.
- 5:24[SPEAKER_04]: A nice performance by the Blue Devils.
- 5:26[SPEAKER_04]: Got off to a really good start.
- 5:28[SPEAKER_00]: They did.
- 5:28[SPEAKER_00]: They got off to a great start.
- 5:31[SPEAKER_00]: Dakota Garmin picked off.
- 5:34[SPEAKER_00]: Lafay Center Catholics Freshman quarterback and returned at 48 yards for touchdown.
- 5:41[SPEAKER_00]: And tip just just started rolling.
- 5:44[SPEAKER_00]: Second time, Lafay Center.
- 5:47[SPEAKER_00]: Well, on the afternoon, so we can kick off.
- 5:50[SPEAKER_00]: the defense force they punt and the ball seal over the punner's head or through his hands and I had to jump through his hands.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_00]: He picked it up.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_00]: He couldn't get it.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_00]: He couldn't get the punna way.
- 6:01[SPEAKER_00]: He got tackled.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_00]: Tiped and turned it into another touchdown.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_00]: Then tiped in again.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_00]: Stop central Catholic on.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_00]: forked down and this time the snapper was so worried about snapping it high.
- 6:14[SPEAKER_00]: He ground was like the punner had to feel like a ground ball to him.
- 6:18[SPEAKER_00]: Ken was on the dirt.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: So he picks it up.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: He gets set dropped again, tips and turns it into another touchdown.
- 6:25[SPEAKER_00]: So your 21 to 0 still in the first quarter.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_00]: That was just the kind of night it was.
- 6:31[SPEAKER_00]: Central Catholic passed the ball.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, over 40 times.
- 6:39[SPEAKER_00]: play was a pass and tip to the secondary was probably the best they played all year grade.
- 6:48[SPEAKER_00]: Just in not just coverage, but they were there.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_00]: Openfield taught their tackling and the way they broke down to tackle was stellar tonight.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, tip didn't finish off tackles.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_00]: It was real rare for Central Catholic to get any kind of major yardage post the first
- 7:09[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Tipton look pretty good.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_00]: They're often still in the red zone.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_00]: Still needs tuned up.
- 7:14[SPEAKER_00]: But Coach told you, you heard him comment about that and that something that they really need to get fine tune before the tournament rolls around in a couple of weeks.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Central Catholic is just, this is not the same Central Catholic team that they've been.
- 7:31[SPEAKER_00]: I talked to somebody from Central Catholic.
- 7:34[SPEAKER_00]: to the game a little bit and this person thinks it might be two years before they're really back to being super kind of what they've been in the past.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_00]: But I will say this central Catholic part of the reason the score was like that.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_00]: Is after those two bats enough, it's on the punt they never punted again.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_00]: They went for it every time on forked out.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_00]: which are quarterback.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_00]: And so you tip them, stop them, usually, or they intercepted a Dakota Garmin had another interception.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_00]: Zach Emberton had an interception tonight.
- 8:05[SPEAKER_00]: I was senior night.
- 8:05[SPEAKER_00]: The seniors played really well.
- 8:07[SPEAKER_00]: Isaiah Mahaney had a terrific game in the second there.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_00]: He also scored a touchdown and had a nice big.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_00]: past reception, he had more than one past reception, but a long one sort of Dakota Garmin.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_00]: It was tip to just look very good tonight.
- 8:21[SPEAKER_00]: It was what they needed coming off the three-game road trip where they lost two of the three, school their size and something that they need to prepare because they're going to go to Hampton Heights and face a very good Hampton Heights team and Coach told knows that.
- 8:37[SPEAKER_00]: One thing is he does believe in it.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_00]: He's probably accurate, they'll have their teams focus this week, because that's a rivalry.
- 8:45[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, the most people just call Hamilton Heights that orange team to the south.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_00]: And it's become, I think, Hamilton Heights has become tips and is biggest rival.
- 8:57[SPEAKER_00]: Over, I'll win on the football schedule and over a tricentro in basketball.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_00]: So, but yeah, great win by the Rudolphals, look good tonight in all phases of the game.
- 9:15[SPEAKER_04]: Before we get to Grant, I was just looking at the scores while Michelle was talking and trying to just surround the state.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_04]: If there's ever been a higher scoring knight in an Indiana high school football history, I would be surprised every game the winners in the these high 40s, 50s, 60s we had.
- 9:32[SPEAKER_04]: We had a team score 91, 98, 96, 92, Union County, 92, Cambridge,
- 9:42[SPEAKER_04]: West Central 72 faith Christian 14 these this is just at the bottom of the list here South Ridge scored 63 Shen Doves scored 50 West Delph 58 Rodchester 51.
- 9:56[SPEAKER_04]: Well, it's a crazy crazy.
- 10:00[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_00]: And most of the orange.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_04]: Crazy night of oh nightstown 60 nightstown 61 try 59 and over time
- 10:13[SPEAKER_04]: Centerville 63, and as we mentioned cascades to a discord 98 tonight, crazy.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_04]: Let's talk about the CIC grant and Kevin Hellfreak of the Action Sports Network had Mrs. CineWaw's 48 to nothing when over Elwood, also in the CIC and the Central Indiana Sports Report game of the night.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_04]: It was Eastbrook 31 Madison Grant, 26 setting up Eastbrook and Mrs. and a while next week for the CIC Championship.
- 10:53[SPEAKER_03]: The conference is really competitive this year.
- 10:55[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's really going to come down to the last week of the year.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_03]: And I'll be asked the output the statement out there.
- 11:01[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not so sure there will be an outright champion.
- 11:04[SPEAKER_03]: I could see it ending in a tie between East Brook and Mississippi, a wall.
- 11:08[SPEAKER_03]: I could see that happening would not be shocked next week is really going to be a big indicator because next week will determine who's outright in first place if it's East Brook or Mississippi, a wall and then.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, they both have really tough week, nine games.
- 11:24[SPEAKER_04]: East Brook against O'Kill, Mississippi, and Waw against Madison Grant.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_04]: So either team wins, there's no guarantee they're gonna win the following week.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_00]: No, you're right.
- 11:33[SPEAKER_00]: There is no guarantee it just gives him a nice leg up in the conference to where they do.
- 11:38[SPEAKER_00]: control their own destiny.
- 11:40[SPEAKER_00]: That's a big game.
- 11:41[SPEAKER_00]: It's for the coffee championship and you've got two teams in Mrs. Sinole and Eastbrook next Friday that really believe they have our capable of winning a sexual and so you don't they don't want to slip up and play poorly and kill their momentum that they've got building into it.
- 11:58[SPEAKER_00]: So it's going to be a big game.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_00]: It is going to be a big game.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_00]: The week after
- 12:04[SPEAKER_00]: curious just because sometimes you can have a let down if especially if next week's game is a a dogfight, a very fit, you know, a physical game that's on one possession game.
- 12:17[SPEAKER_04]: So I wanted to mention also the next week in the CIC of Alexandria and Madison Grant should be a really good one and Frank and Owen seven probably going to get its first win.
- 12:33[SPEAKER_04]: We are joined on the Riverside App by Will Williams of the 11 and reporter.
- 12:40[SPEAKER_04]: We would get to Will and talk some Boone County football here before long, but let's finish our conversation about the CIC.
- 12:48[SPEAKER_04]: It's kind of played out exactly how we saw it.
- 12:51[SPEAKER_04]: Five really good teams.
- 12:53[SPEAKER_04]: They were going to be a lot of good games.
- 12:55[SPEAKER_04]: Madison Grant, Michelle, I wanted to tell you today in the hallways, I ran into O.J.
- 13:00[SPEAKER_04]: Blackwell, and I said, I've been hearing a lot of this, maybe Madison Grant's had done because their quarterback got hurt, but this might be a good thing for Madison Grant the long run, and he was incredible today and gave Madison Grant a chance to win that game, and it's probably the best offensive performance in a few weeks.
- 13:19[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they've needed someone to step up in that role,
- 13:25[SPEAKER_03]: And I think that's a really good fine for coach Turner and them put him in a roll and he was in a quarter back to begin the years running back and you put him back there at the controls of the offense and what the good thing is about Madison grand it's how good their staff is.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_03]: and how great of a coach coach Turner is is that they're able to work with that kind of situation where you lose your quarterback and then you got to basically throw someone into a role that they're not familiar with playing and they set up and they play well.
- 13:56[SPEAKER_03]: So that's really big.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_03]: But you know, talk about, you know, the CIC race here.
- 14:01[SPEAKER_03]: Really, you can really see the separation between the top five teams with
- 14:07[SPEAKER_03]: Midas Blackford, Elwood and Franklin, and the five teams above them are all just kind of right there throwing punches all that kind of stuff.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, kill is eliminated from the race.
- 14:19[SPEAKER_03]: They already have two losses in the conference.
- 14:22[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you talk about the scenario where Mr. Sennelwall loses next Friday.
- 14:28[SPEAKER_03]: and then loses again to Madison Grant.
- 14:32[SPEAKER_03]: Well, Eastbrook could beat Mr. Sino on then lose to kill when Eastbrook could still be the outright champion if that's okay.
- 14:40[SPEAKER_03]: So there's there's so many scenarios we're going to look at going into week nine and we're going to hammer it all week that week and probably next week as well.
- 14:48[SPEAKER_03]: But this like we said, they all control their own destiny.
- 14:51[SPEAKER_04]: But what we know for sure is that the winner between Eastbrook and Mississippi will have at least a share of the C.I.C.
- 14:59[SPEAKER_04]: Jambenshire.
- 15:00[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, they will.
- 15:02[SPEAKER_00]: Grant give a shout out to turn to a.
- 15:05[SPEAKER_00]: Brady Turner and he's done a wonderful job, but I also want to give a shout out to his assistant Bassey who has done an incredible job at Massing Grant in the wait because he runs that wait program and that's a big key to them.
- 15:20[SPEAKER_00]: They're a success.
- 15:21[SPEAKER_00]: They're strength up front and he does that defense and he's done a really wonderful job.
- 15:28[SPEAKER_00]: I think he and Brady make a great tandem.
- 15:36[SPEAKER_04]: And speaking of comfort, championing it, chips.
- 15:39[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know how much it really means when you have four teams in a conference as we're going to mention here with Will and the Levin and Tigers, but Tipton clinched a share of the small school division of the who's your conference at something.
- 15:51[SPEAKER_00]: it's something for those kids to celebrate a little bit, maybe give them just a little bit of confidence heading into the postseason because they should definitely win that.
- 16:06[SPEAKER_00]: I would be very shocked, very disappointed, and I think Coach Tolnstein would probably be very upset if
- 16:19[SPEAKER_00]: having lost.
- 16:21[SPEAKER_04]: No one that one.
- 16:23[SPEAKER_00]: I believe so.
- 16:30[SPEAKER_04]: Speaking of conference championships, will the Lebanon Tigers clinched a share of the now tiny sagamore, which won't be so tiny next year, but.
- 16:40[SPEAKER_04]: with a win over Danville tonight, their first win at Danville in a decade, their sixth straight win, really big win for the Tigers, the night will.
- 16:50[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it was a really good win for them.
- 16:54[SPEAKER_02]: It's kind of weird in the Sagamore this year with only four teams and two of them aren't playing each other this year, so Lebanon and McCutchen are the only two that are playing all three other schools, but yeah, Lebanon's two and oh now in the conference, long time foe with Danville, they've been in the conference together now for 25 years and
- 17:16[SPEAKER_02]: The Warriors have won their fair share of these battles recently, but this Lebanon teams kind of a different than some Lebanon teams in the past.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_02]: They're defining ways to win really close games.
- 17:29[SPEAKER_02]: And they did it again.
- 17:30[SPEAKER_02]: It was tied 28 all early in the fourth quarter.
- 17:35[SPEAKER_02]: Lebanon kicked a 32 yard field goal to go up by 331 28.
- 17:42[SPEAKER_02]: On the ensuing drive, Danville went forward on 4th and 3 right near midfield and got stuffed and Lebanon went 50 yards down and scored to go up 10 and then Danville added a late touchdown with about two minutes left and Lebanon was able to run out the clock after that with a couple of big first downs.
- 18:00[SPEAKER_02]: But really good back and forth game, that's the way that that Lebanon Danville rivalry has been going the last few years.
- 18:07[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, 11 and net six six wins in a row now and they're they're roll and as they get to the stretch run of the season here.
- 18:14[SPEAKER_04]: And next week will be seven straight.
- 18:17[SPEAKER_04]: They go to Tara Houghton North there.
- 18:19[SPEAKER_04]: Absolutely awful, but we'll be a member of the saga more conference next year.
- 18:24[SPEAKER_04]: But that here's some teams dangerous.
- 18:27[SPEAKER_02]: It was talking with coach Josh the owner after the game today and.
- 18:31[SPEAKER_02]: Obviously, they're not looking past anybody that's a long bus trip to Tara Holt for them, and so things can get a little tricky with that.
- 18:40[SPEAKER_02]: They are definitely the favorite on paper, but he knows that that Harrison could be a real doozy the last week of the year and we'll kind of give the Tigers a really good idea of where they are heading into sectional play that week after should be a good game the first time I think that Lebanon and Harrison will ever have met in football and it's that should be a really good one.
- 19:06[SPEAKER_04]: That should be a really nice conference.
- 19:08[SPEAKER_04]: All those come in from a long travel.
- 19:13[SPEAKER_02]: Thankfully, that drive to Lebanon from Lebanon to Harrison or the McCutton isn't too terribly bad.
- 19:19[SPEAKER_02]: It's pretty much a straight shot right up 65, but there is no easy way to get to Tara Hought from Lebanon.
- 19:26[SPEAKER_04]: So it's, well, how about Tara Hought to Lafayette, man?
- 19:30[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's also not going to be a fun trip.
- 19:32[SPEAKER_02]: But I think they've kind of,
- 19:34[SPEAKER_02]: I've tried to do some things with the conference scheduling to limit how much each team has to travel that long distance.
- 19:44[SPEAKER_02]: I think Harrison's only going to have to go to one tarot every year for football and basketball and the other one will have to come up there and doing some double headers with soccer and tennis and some other things to maximize travel.
- 20:00[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's a, unfortunately, the way that conference realignment has kind of been going.
- 20:04[SPEAKER_02]: It's really hard to get schools of similar size and talent ability to kind of band together.
- 20:11[SPEAKER_02]: And some schools are very happy with where they are and don't want things ruffled and other things are breaking apart.
- 20:18[SPEAKER_02]: So, uh, have to be a little creative with the way you build conferences.
- 20:21[SPEAKER_02]: And that's what other sag more is kind of run into after the five schools left this year to create the monon with, uh,
- 20:29[SPEAKER_02]: Greencastle, North Putnam, and Cascade.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_04]: You know, Michelle and I need to do a conference realignment podcast very soon, probably in the next week, with the big news that came out this week of a new conference.
- 20:43[SPEAKER_04]: Cameron, what is going to be called?
- 20:44[SPEAKER_04]: I shouldn't have been prepared, but it's over on the, in our area, Delta and Shenandoah, if some schools like that are going to be part of it.
- 20:52[SPEAKER_04]: A lot of realignment because as always happens, populations migrate.
- 20:58[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, India.
- 20:59[SPEAKER_02]: It's just one of those things that really with travel and some of the school size, Lebanon, and Danville in particular are growing pretty quickly in the Montgomery County schools weren't really growing as fast.
- 21:12[SPEAKER_02]: And Western Boone was kind of caught in between a rock and a hard place trying to figure out which way to go and looked like the Mona was a little more stabilized and they fit a lot better.
- 21:23[SPEAKER_02]: most sports and with those other teams leaving and kind of tough, the stigma had been such a stable conference for a really long time.
- 21:34[SPEAKER_02]: My Gummery County school's Levin and Western Boon and Frank had been together since the mid-80s.
- 21:40[SPEAKER_02]: Danville and Trey West joined and I think 98 or 2000 somewhere around there when they declared and then were official and things like that.
- 21:49[SPEAKER_02]: So it had been almost two decades
- 21:53[SPEAKER_02]: Like he said, a change is happening.
- 21:54[SPEAKER_02]: There's different population growth happening all over the place, and that's just the way it goes.
- 22:04[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, great.
- 22:05[SPEAKER_00]: That conference, you were the new one, Eastern Crossroads.
- 22:12[SPEAKER_04]: That won't be confusing at all.
- 22:16[SPEAKER_04]: Jeez.
- 22:19[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, we got the who's your heritage, the who's your conference, the who's your crossroads, the eastern crossroads, the eastern conference, the Now it's even going to be more confusing, at least mowing on in Sagamore easy to remember.
- 22:33[SPEAKER_04]: And of course, the central Indian a conference named itself after this podcast, so I can't forget the name of that one.
- 22:42[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely.
- 22:44[SPEAKER_04]: But guys.
- 22:46[SPEAKER_04]: We need a new plan for football.
- 22:48[SPEAKER_04]: We need to get rid of conferences.
- 22:50[SPEAKER_04]: We just need to, football is different than every other sport.
- 22:53[SPEAKER_04]: We just need to admit it.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_04]: We need to get rid of conferences and just make sections with light size schools to make going to a playoff and not have to have every team in the playoff.
- 23:09[SPEAKER_04]: Let's fix this now that everybody's changing conferences.
- 23:14[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, there's definitely been some lopsided scores.
- 23:17[SPEAKER_02]: I'm assuming you guys saw the Cascade Green Castle score from tonight, which was a little eye opening to say the least.
- 23:25[SPEAKER_04]: Right before you popped on here, well, I was going through all the scores around the state.
- 23:30[SPEAKER_04]: There were three games in the 90s.
- 23:31[SPEAKER_04]: There were lots of games in the 80s and 70s.
- 23:34[SPEAKER_04]: I can't imagine there's ever been a higher scoring night than there was.
- 23:38[SPEAKER_04]: And I think there was a 77 to 70 game.
- 23:44[SPEAKER_04]: And Philly at 50.
- 23:46[SPEAKER_02]: I was talking to some people who had watching the cast game game, and they said it was 77 to 7 at half time, but they had really been running the ball since like early in the second quarter, trying to, but I don't know if what exactly happened there, because even with running the ball with a running clock scoring 21 points in the third quarter is.
- 24:10[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, like kind of crazy that like the running clock, you should be able to take off a couple of minutes just plain, but yeah, correct.
- 24:21[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's a 98's a very large number.
- 24:24[SPEAKER_04]: Right, let's move to the mountain on then and talk about Western boons 26, 20's re lost the South, but really good performance, Western is playing really well.
- 24:36[SPEAKER_02]: a tough one for Western boondonite.
- 24:38[SPEAKER_02]: They just really talking to coach Justin Pele on the phone after that and had watched some of their game on YouTube before hopping on here.
- 24:47[SPEAKER_02]: Just couldn't find anything really consistently on offense today.
- 24:52[SPEAKER_02]: They had been rolling pretty well.
- 24:54[SPEAKER_02]: They actually scored a touchdown on the first play from Scrimmage on a 61-yard touchdown past
- 25:02[SPEAKER_02]: We'll really put together any drives whatsoever.
- 25:04[SPEAKER_02]: Found themselves down, nine, late in the fourth quarter, got a 95 yard kick off return from Malachi, Christida, and then a three and a four and out on defense after they didn't get an on-site kick to give themselves a chance.
- 25:20[SPEAKER_02]: We're able to get down to about the Southmont 15 yard line, and then an interception with
- 25:29[SPEAKER_02]: looked like a watching the video could have been called a passenger fear, instead of receiving or going across the middle, kind of got cleaned up before the ball was even thrown, but got it didn't get called southbound got the interception were able to kneel the game out.
- 25:44[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so western boon had been rolling for no in the moan on heading into today.
- 25:48[SPEAKER_02]: It was a little bit step back, but hopefully for them, they got
- 25:54[SPEAKER_02]: Cascade coming up so they can find a way to get a couple of wins.
- 25:58[SPEAKER_02]: They'll put themselves in a chance to probably share a conference title.
- 26:07[SPEAKER_04]: All right, let's talk about Zionsville.
- 26:09[SPEAKER_04]: The final scores aren't going to show at 38 to 6 and 27 to 3.
- 26:11[SPEAKER_04]: But the way they hung with Westfield and Brownsburg,
- 26:19[SPEAKER_04]: at least early in games into the second half has to give them some hope going into the postseason.
- 26:25[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 26:26[SPEAKER_02]: The Westfield game early on was a little weird.
- 26:29[SPEAKER_02]: They had some injuries, some key guys in that first half.
- 26:32[SPEAKER_02]: We're winning three to nothing at half time.
- 26:34[SPEAKER_02]: And then the third quarter just didn't go their way.
- 26:37[SPEAKER_02]: And I think it was 21 to three after the third quarter.
- 26:39[SPEAKER_02]: And just kind of got away from a little bit today.
- 26:44[SPEAKER_02]: talking to my writer on my stringer who was out there great first half for signs will they had to really long drives and didn't get touched on but were able to cap them off with field goals were only down seven six and the final seconds of the first half that then gave up a touchdown pass with four seconds left in the half to go down 14 six Brownsberg got the second half kick off went down and
- 27:12[SPEAKER_02]: They got into a rhythm then, and Zion's built.
- 27:15[SPEAKER_02]: They're not really built as a team to be able to come back from big deficits.
- 27:21[SPEAKER_02]: They're more of a kind of a running one in the control, get tempo, and things like that.
- 27:26[SPEAKER_02]: So when Brownsburg went, they get up a couple of stroke doors, and they're tough, and they're just an elite team anyway.
- 27:32[SPEAKER_02]: So whenever you've got to give them any little inch, they're going to take it.
- 27:39[SPEAKER_04]: Apparently we've lost Michelle, she has an early morning, she said at some point she was going to drop off As the reason that we started with Tipton tonight rather than our game of the week Madison Grant East Brooklands And a reminder East Brook 31 to 26 over Madison Grant was a really good game western boom is an asexional with Southmont and Seeger, but they're gonna have a chance to win that section for sure
- 28:05[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, uh, things didn't go that their way today.
- 28:09[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, offensively, I'm surpassing game really didn't get going.
- 28:14[SPEAKER_02]: I think at one point, they looking at my notes here about I think they had like nine or 10 straight in completions, which is never ideal when you're trying to move the ball offensively and just really couldn't get much of their rushing attack going.
- 28:28[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it was going
- 28:33[SPEAKER_02]: talking to Coach Peli after the game, about potentially seeing them again in the sectional.
- 28:38[SPEAKER_02]: He felt like they got some good things from the game that if they were to meet again, a few adjustments and they would give to have a good chance of pulling it out.
- 28:47[SPEAKER_02]: It just, today wasn't there, night.
- 28:52[SPEAKER_04]: And we already mentioned last week, Lebanon sectional, they probably go in as the favorite, right?
- 28:58[SPEAKER_02]: Obviously, Logan's port has a really nice record.
- 29:03[SPEAKER_02]: They've quite played this schedule that Lebanon has.
- 29:06[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure they haven't.
- 29:09[SPEAKER_02]: And the one thing that I think could help Lebanon in that sectional especially because there is a potential for a lot of really long bus trips throughout that sectional the way it all spread out.
- 29:20[SPEAKER_02]: But Lebanon, they've kind of been the road warriors.
- 29:24[SPEAKER_02]: had to drive to marry and they've had to go to Triton Central.
- 29:26[SPEAKER_02]: They're going to have to go to Tara Hote next week.
- 29:29[SPEAKER_02]: Those are some really long bus trips that they've kind of learned what they have to do to make sure that they're ready to go once they get to wherever they're going to go play.
- 29:38[SPEAKER_02]: So if they were to drive hunting to North or a culver academy in that sectional, I think they're going to be ready and know how to at least handle the travel aspect of things.
- 29:53[SPEAKER_04]: They're two and five, but they put a tough schedule.
- 29:55[SPEAKER_04]: And they're definitely decent and could be a good team on a good night, of course, Lebanon has memories of, I need to north.
- 30:04[SPEAKER_02]: If there's one team, they would probably not overlook in that section, though it wouldn't be a hundred billion dollars after losing an intersectional final last year in a really good over time game.
- 30:15[SPEAKER_02]: Lebanon, it's been a long time since they've had kind of back to back years where they've been able to rack up some winds like that.
- 30:23[SPEAKER_02]: had a sectional title since 1997.
- 30:25[SPEAKER_02]: That was their only one in school history.
- 30:28[SPEAKER_02]: So they're still kind of sticking with that one game at a time mindset and not looking ahead.
- 30:36[SPEAKER_02]: But I think when you really start to kind of break down and look at things, they have a really good chance to do something pretty cool this way or this fall.
- 30:46[SPEAKER_04]: Did you know that in that class 3A sectional
- 30:55[SPEAKER_02]: I believe it was like a misdextra point for Zinesville at one point that gave Levin in the win with the future NFL player Craig Terrell on the Levin and Tigers that year.
- 31:06[SPEAKER_02]: Who was at the game today watching his nephew and got to say hi to him.
- 31:08[SPEAKER_02]: So it's always a good thing when the Terrell clans out there.
- 31:12[SPEAKER_04]: Very cool.
- 31:13[SPEAKER_04]: That would play Zinesville on a state championship in 1987.
- 31:24[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, the good old range line conference maybe someone should bring that back as a conference name and with at least get it's a little more creative than whatever
- 31:50[SPEAKER_02]: That's the one thing I appreciate with the mone on when they created it.
- 31:54[SPEAKER_02]: They actually thought about a conference name a little bit.
- 31:58[SPEAKER_02]: The mone on has meaning to all those kind of communities as as does their logo, trying to incorporate the old mone on train tracks in there and things like that.
- 32:07[SPEAKER_02]: So that that is pretty cool.
- 32:13[SPEAKER_04]: All right, well, well, I'm thanks for staying up late with me tonight.
- 32:16[SPEAKER_04]: Tell everyone how they can read your coverage and what you got coming up.
