- 2:27[SPEAKER_01]: Your Elwood Panthers are now 8 and 11 on the year after a heart
- 2:40[SPEAKER_01]: It was Blue River Senior Johnny House shot at the buzzer that sent Elwood Panther fans home heartbroken on Valentine's Day Eve.
- 2:54[SPEAKER_00]: Just Friday the 13th.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's all more at Pro Po.
- 2:58[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
- 3:00[SPEAKER_01]: We got it was Friday the 13th.
- 3:02[SPEAKER_01]: By the way, Friday the 13th, the movie way better than Valentine's Day the movie.
- 3:07[SPEAKER_01]: Which I've never seen, but I just know that it's.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_01]: but Halloween beats them all.
- 3:13[SPEAKER_01]: The Panthers led 10 to 9 after the first quarter.
- 3:17[SPEAKER_01]: And it was a really bad second quarter.
- 3:20[SPEAKER_01]: The Vikings outscoring the Panthers 24 to 8 to take a 33 to 18 have time lead.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_01]: But then, L-Wid countered with an equally impressive third quarter outscoring Blue River 22 to 9 in the third to get within 2 points at 42 to 40 heading into the fourth.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_01]: with the game tie to add 50-6 a piece.
- 3:45[SPEAKER_01]: Bryce Schueler had a shot, a chance to win the game at the end of regulation that missed.
- 3:50[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, so close.
- 3:52[SPEAKER_01]: Again, Coach Vanskyak expressed his disappointment because he really felt like his team deserved the win this one.
- 4:00[SPEAKER_01]: Big Knight for Corbin level 23 points.
- 4:04[SPEAKER_01]: He had six three pointers, including three in a row,
- 4:07[SPEAKER_01]: in the third quarter.
- 4:08[SPEAKER_01]: I was going to say during an L would 11 to nothing run, but it really was the L would 11 to nothing run all the two points, of course.
- 4:18[SPEAKER_01]: Blaze Jones scored 14, Bryce Schueler 11, Connor Wooten 7, Braden, Edgesson 6, and Jake Bell 2.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_01]: L would had a player quit the team earlier in the day, and Coach VanSkyx said,
- 4:34[SPEAKER_01]: He was really proud of the way his team responded, not only the players who came up and replaced him, but the players who remained one of the best efforts of the season for the Panthers Coach Vanskiak said it was the best performance.
- 4:49[SPEAKER_01]: By his team this season, it's four wins and a row for Blue River Valley.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_01]: They are now 6 and 11 after eight, one and nine start to the season.
- 5:01[SPEAKER_01]: Junior Grant Beaver's finished with 23 points to lead the Vikings, and seeing your Bradon Swoblin at 13.
- 5:10[SPEAKER_01]: Swoblin's return to the lineup has been the impetus for the Vikings turnaround.
- 5:17[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be a rarity on Saturday for Elwood.
- 5:20[SPEAKER_01]: Three games in a row.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_01]: Thursday, Friday, Saturday, it went on Thursday, a loss on Friday.
- 5:28[SPEAKER_01]: They had back to Indianapolis where they
- 5:31[SPEAKER_01]: to take on Providence, Christo Ray.
- 5:34[SPEAKER_01]: The Wolves are 10 and 10 after beating Union Motoc, 53 to 45 on Friday, L would beat the Wolves, 51 to 38 on February 15, last year.
- 5:47[SPEAKER_01]: And is 3 and 0 all time against them.
- 5:52[SPEAKER_01]: And as we mentioned last night, L would as 2 and L and Indianapolis this year.
- 5:59[SPEAKER_01]: at least they've seen for Elwood head coach Ryan Rinskay up.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_01]: Coach Hart Breking lost tonight.
- 6:08[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, God, we wanted to sit so back for our kids.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_00]: It's the best I've seen on play for two years.
- 6:15[SPEAKER_00]: They actually played together as a team.
- 6:19[SPEAKER_00]: We got down 15 and a half time and it is kept fighting, fighting, fighting, fighting.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_00]: Shot the winner at the end of,
- 6:27[SPEAKER_00]: Regulation, that was a great shot by Bryce, you're sitting in the now, and then I'm fortunate to have a how kid from Blue River hit a step back one footer to one and over time.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_00]: So really hard breaking for our kids, but man, I'm so proud of how how they played.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_00]: We've battled a lot of adversity this year.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_00]: We had another kid quit at 330 today or just found out.
- 6:54[SPEAKER_00]: And so we've lost three of our starting guards for the season.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_00]: So we had a doctoral click.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_00]: I want to give a shout out to no cap show of freshman.
- 7:03[SPEAKER_00]: Learning at 345, that you're not playing JV anymore.
- 7:06[SPEAKER_00]: And we're going to play varsity basketball.
- 7:08[SPEAKER_00]: I thought he stepped up and gave us tremendous minutes.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to credit to that kid when we're going to get my shout out.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_01]: Very good.
- 7:17[SPEAKER_01]: And it's thanks when you lose players like this, but younger players get a chance to step up
- 7:24[SPEAKER_01]: That's good to see him do that.
- 7:27[SPEAKER_00]: Most definitely and I thought he's done really well.
- 7:31[SPEAKER_00]: We played a Nolan Robertson a little bit yesterday and he's having he's been playing really tremendous on the JV and and.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully, maybe our future point guard coming up.
- 7:41[SPEAKER_00]: We just got to get him in the way room getting a little stronger, but she's starting to come around a little bit.
- 7:47[SPEAKER_00]: Jake Bell stepped up, keeping that in poor stepped up off the band.
- 7:50[SPEAKER_00]: So it's just been great to see some of those other kids when they get thrown in the fire of actually stepping up to the plate and giving us good minutes.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_01]: in Corbyn level tonight 23 points, six threes and we're not a run by himself down 15 and a half time, talk about Corbyn and that third quarter.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we thought he shot the ball really well today.
- 8:16[SPEAKER_00]: This is the first time I felt like he got himself in rhythm on the shots.
- 8:21[SPEAKER_00]: He was actually coming off screens.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_00]: Still we force a few, probably shots that maybe we won't back.
- 8:32[SPEAKER_00]: we got to live with them a little bit.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_00]: So I felt he listened and did a much better job in the second half of coming off screens, getting himself in the rhythm on the catching shoots.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_00]: I credit to him.
- 8:43[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he put this one back in the third quarter with three three's in a row and kind of got the momentum build out for us to get back in the basketball game after me about 15 at half time.
- 8:52[SPEAKER_00]: So.
- 8:53[SPEAKER_00]: He's handled a lot of adversity.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not gonna say here and say I've never been on and before I've been on him hard because you see the talent that he is and what he could be.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_00]: And I felt like he finally stepped up to play tonight and showed us he's a really good shooter and a really good player.
- 9:13[SPEAKER_00]: So credit to Corbin for stepping up in that position.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_00]: He's getting nice looking shot.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_00]: When you look, it's almost every time you feel like the ball is going in, we feel like just watching them practice watching them last four years when he gets to the self and rhythm, you're like, man, I think he's going in, there's times that he likes to fade to left or right a little bit, but man, when he's got his feet, so I mean, I think looks good every single time he shoots it.
- 9:46[SPEAKER_01]: And of course he comes from maybe my favorite family in all of
- 9:50[SPEAKER_00]: Love the love his grandpa's probably one of the nicest people I've ever met rich just trying this guy so yeah really good family great people and would through and through Yep, they sure do love this place and that's what makes out what's special in my eyes the people like that Place Jones speaking of young kids 14 points again tonight.
- 10:13[SPEAKER_00]: He just seems to be contributing a little more all the time We're trying to get him out of the habit of just being tenid
- 10:20[SPEAKER_00]: I thought he was a lot more aggressive in the second half.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_00]: We were on him pretty hard in the first half.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_00]: We felt like he's too passive at times.
- 10:27[SPEAKER_00]: And unfortunately, we need him to score the basketball for us to be successful.
- 10:32[SPEAKER_00]: So he had two, three's the night were big shots.
- 10:35[SPEAKER_00]: He had a couple great layups in the fourth quarter.
- 10:38[SPEAKER_00]: That kind of kept us in the game.
- 10:39[SPEAKER_00]: So he's doing a much better job.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_00]: We just got to try to get that tip and tip in his out of him.
- 10:45[SPEAKER_00]: And having step up and be the player that we need because he's vitally, we really need him to step up if we're going to be successful and have a chance to upset somebody comes sexual time.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_01]: Coach, I know you like the spirit in the fight tonight, but tomorrow is three in a row, a bus trip to Indianapolis, how they feeling.
- 11:06[SPEAKER_00]: Well, they're going to be a little sore for sure.
- 11:09[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, just how hard they've had to play the last couple of games.
- 11:14[SPEAKER_00]: But I I feel more positive going in tomorrow with how they play tonight and their positive energy to having the locker left of the game.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully we got no surprise where hiccups tomorrow and we just go play and we just told them like we're going to go play our stuff and if we play it the right way, we're going to come out with a win.
- 11:34[SPEAKER_00]: I think we're 8 11 right now.
- 11:37[SPEAKER_00]: If we could get that one, we're 9 11 and we got three games next week.
- 11:41[SPEAKER_00]: I give them some opportunity to look at double-digit wins, so I'm really proud of just the kids continued fight with all the adversity that they've had to handle with you.
- 11:54[SPEAKER_01]: All right, Coach, so we will talk to you again on Saturday night.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_01]: Good luck and it's always a great to be in that wood panther.
