Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back court signed to the Breslin Center Prep pakeet
to Tom Kendra John Hill taking it through this afternoon,
game one of our semi final doubleheader for the girls
Heights school basketball season. Who can get the championship?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Saturday?
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Two shots left from West Michigan, One coming up with
the Rockford Rams, One coming up later tonight with the
Falcons at wiscathp Well, it's time down the Jenny's Family
Stores pregame show. Kick it off to my partner today,
Tom Kendra and Tom, I know you've been looking for
this matchup doing your homework last night. What do you
see with Wayne Memorial and rock for this afternoon?
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Well, it's a contrasting styles for sure, no question about that.
I think when we look at the keys to the
game for Rockford. First of all, whenever you play a
team like Wayne that is a very athletic, they're going
to be all over the court in your face. The
Rams have to be able to handle that pressure. Specifically,
I think they need to pass the ball more, dribble
it less if they're not if it's on the ground
(00:53):
too much, Wayne Memorial, but those hands are gonna be
knocking it away. They're gonna get a lot of turnovers.
Second for Rockford, I think rebounding is very important. I
look out here at the Zebras. They're not very tall.
I mean they're athletic, but they're not very tall.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
That means if the big girls for Rockford, I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Talking to you, Kate Higgins, I'm talking to you Audrey
muters Ba, THENO. They need to get their butt in
the gut and if they do that, they should be
able to win the rebounding bat on.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
That'll be huge.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Meanwhile, you flip it over for Wayne Memorial, they need
to limit their fouls. We talked about this a little
before the game. Rockford is a great precrow shooting team.
If they start going to the free throw line, they
can pile up points at the line. The Zebras don't
want to let Rockford stay at the line all night long.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
And then finally they're gonna want to speed up.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
The pace of this game, make Rockford uncomfortable. Two great
guards Brett for Wayne, we talked about Leelee Bryant, who's
going to Drexler next year. Also Mariah Cross, their leading
scorer nineteen points a game. That's a great batcourt. And
if they're able to control this game. I think Wayne's
got a chance to pull the upset.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
All right, there's your Vandalone Home Improvement Keys to the
Contest with Tom Kendri. Brought to you by vandalid Ho

offers top notch contractors services. It's customers in West Michigan.
Call Eric Grasspett. He's on duty right now, probably listening
to our broadcast though sixty one six sixty six, nine
eleven eleven more details, I visit Vandalians dot com. You're
sporting you starting lines, jumping up in the middle. Kate Higgins,
(02:30):
the rugby player, speaking of that. She likes contact and physicality,
so she won't have a problem for Rockford today when
it comes to that category. Six foot junior averages eight
points per game, almost a double double because what she
does on the rebounding side, and she wins the tap,
they get a Tannawi pitch the Ragning miss basketball just
found out earlier this week. Hands off to our younger sister,
Addison Way Pitch, who's done a nice job in the
(02:51):
starting line up. Nine point two points per game. Wayne
Memorial pressure defense all over double and Manda man down
the lay and the runner taking no good by Muter
small battle for the rebound, goes out of bounds and
let's see it's gonna be off Higgins. It will be
Zebra's basketball for Wayne Memorial finishing out the starting five.
I mentioned Anna Y Pitch and then of course you've
(03:12):
got Addison wy Pitch and Jordan Mateer outstanding three point
shoot of the five time junior at number twelve for
Brad Wilson this afternoon. Now Anna Y Pitch step in steel.
They try to take it back to the point on
the attack under control, gets down to the left block,
kicks out to Matier around in out rebound. Wayne Memorial
back on the attack quickly, Mariah Cross, they won't wait
(03:34):
for you. Kicks left side, nice bullet pass down low
and able to handle it though was Mackenzie Nelson. Here
comes Rockford back on the attack.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Little sloppy in the early going, Brett Rockford misses their
first couple of shots. Just need to settle in a
little bit here. I think they'll be fine. Both team's
going man a man pressure defense. Higgins now double teams
and goes down. They're gonna have a reach in foul.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
So it's McKenzie Nelson five eight senior tower of five
eight senior number two than Mariah Cross their leading scorers.
Tom mentioned she's only a junior at nineteen points per game,
Morgan Smith five to five, junior at eleven points per contest,
and Kyleena Bryant they call it Lelee five to six
senior point guard. Definitely their leader and going to Drexel
University seventeen points per game coming in for head coach
(04:19):
Jarvis Mitchell. Here's Anna Y pitch on the left side.
They're letting them play with a bump there. Matier now
down low bought SHEI traveled lost the ball though, seevers
trying to dig it out and they do. Still you
have to score either side up ahead and swat it out.
That time, as they tried to feed McKenzie Nelson, she
went with a scoop and the freshman Enisen wife pitch
knocked it out of the bounds.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
They had no score so far in this game, but
a lot of good action. We talked about the officiating
is going to be a real key to this game.
So far, they're letting them play. That's an advantage for Wayne.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Only one loss on the year, and they played an
absolutely loaded schedule. The Rams of Rockford at twenty six
to one ranked number one in the state because of it.
Trying to step back on the three ball at ten
Morgan Smith good defense that time. Defensively, that's Muterspall. She's
a defensive specialist. Does all the little things for Brad Wilson,
(05:12):
like Kate Higgins, and you get a lot of multi
sport athletes for Rocker as well. Soccer players, rugby players,
runner off the window no halfway down but popped out
for Colleena Bryant, bothered by Higgins and kick comes down
with a rebound, still scoreless. Here we played almost two
minutes in this division one semi final wide pitch drives
on the left side, puts it up an end so
(05:34):
soft with that layup in traffic, and that's where size
and her long arms really take advantage.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, and easily going to the left hand, that's no
problem at all. Yeah, the zone defense for Rockford and
a life pitch with those long arms at the top
of the zone already has one steal.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Yeah, they are going one to three to one kind
of a matchup, and she's going against Brian now a
step in steel with a quick hands back the other way.
The butler commit nice job with her pacing Leason up
in a Oh she went down hard. Oh wow, oh boy.
There was a collision as she finished there. Oh, and
she is in some serious pain. I don't think it
was anything intentional. She just kind of wrapped up her
(06:11):
legs as she went down with Smith, who kind of
challenged that. Anna was kind of slowing down the pace
just to be under control when she went up, and
then when she came down, Smith was kind of right there.
They tangled and she went down and in some tears
and in some serious pain. And let me tell you,
she's a competitor. She has a high threshold for pain.
(06:32):
But serious moments here for Rockford for nothing, Rockford Way Memorial.
Now trying to be helped up by the trader. Let's
see and you hear the ovation on both sides. She's
trying to lace them up a little tighter the old school, right,
you don't want to take the shoe off. And she
will walk good news under her own power. But a
big scare to the bench. We'll keep an eye on
(06:52):
that top, Kendra.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Oh, no question about it.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Anna was off to a great start in the game,
two steals from her top of his own position. But yeah,
we'll just have to see. They're gonna be working on
it right away there on the sideline.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I think they are gonna take this shoe off and
maybe a quick retape four nothing Rockford wide pitch with
both buckets and as you mentioned on the top of
that one three one, so now adjusting for that, it'll
be Muter spat triple drive the left side, way off
the mark, battle for the rebound, Kate Higgins doing a
nice job clearing space and now reaching foul gonna be
called against Wayne tomorrow. Let me finish off with Colleena Bryant.
(07:28):
I mentioned the starting five for head coach Jarvis Mitchell
in eleven years and what a program he's built. One
hundred and ninety two wins to the sixty nine losses.
And they're no stranger to the semi finals and girls
high school basketball either, Tom.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
No doubt.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Yeah, although not quite the experience. That's one of the
big advantages for Rockford is more experience at this stage.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
And now beating the pressure. This is what Brad Wilson
was talking about. We know they're gonna try to speed
us up. We got to stay under control with our
pace materia that time kind of forced the issue. Thought
he was going in for a layup, went to fast,
lost the basketball out of bounds and in for the
first time. Goodness, see she's only been back since about February.
Sienna Wolf with a knee brace on that right knee
(08:10):
she tore acl at the end of last year. Missed
the run to the buzzling center block by Higgins that
time in traffic as they tried to take it in.
That was against Mariah Cross.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
This one three one zone of Rockford really giving Wayne problems,
throwing them out of their offense. I love that zone
defense in the high school basketball. I think it should
be used.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
More high screen by Higgins, and that frees up Addison
y pitched the freshman and she won't back down, strong
with the left hand, puts it up an end six
nothing Rockford.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Her sister goes to the bench. Addison said, well, I
guess it's my turn.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
How about Rockford a shutout here? We've played almost halfway
through the opening quarter. Triple tryup on the right side,
no off the back, gron rebound in traffic trying to
finish with a left hand no, by cross tap no,
and finally Matiar digging it out of there. She's tied
up possession a were going to stay with the Zebras
to our and looking at a way pitch. Tough customer.
That's why, folks, she's a four year varsity player and
(09:05):
miss basketball. He's got a little bit of a limp, noticeable,
but she's back in there. She's not gonna miss this moment.
In checking out for the Ramses number five, Audrey muterspawn.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Yeah, you're right, Brett.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
She definitely has a little bit of a limp, but
she's gonna cut it out.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
She talks about for my teammates now because he's been
here all four years, to the Breusln Center, he said,
nerves is just excitement the way I look at it.
Knocking down the three boy, they needed that Mariah cross
the trip over the Zebra six to three hours goal.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
They were zero for seven Brent from the field before
that one. They like you said, they really needed that
get them going.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
And that feeds their defense. You can see it in
intensity when they start to knock down shots. They want
to get in a ninety four foot game, step through
y pitch, good shutdown defense, kick out, addison, y pitch,
triple try at the top, no long care, I'm gonna
go out of bounds. No one touched the be Wayne

That's six to three hours. Score Rockford three point thirty
and ticking left to go opening quarter. Great start for
the Rams. And before I thought of travel the contact
they're gonna call, I think Kate Higgins with a block
against Colleena Bryant. She was a Miss Basketball finalist. Nickname
is Leelee. As Tom told you, heck of a player
(10:42):
going to drec SU University. I mean, and you look
at when you've got one guard that's nineteen points per
game and another one at seventeen. That tells you two things.
They like to shoot the threes and they're gonna get
up tempo all day long.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
That's right, and Brad Wilson the game plan. You can
see it already. They're gonna try to cut down the penetration,
make them beat beat Rockford from the outside.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Bryant went baseline, tried to kick it back out, almost
threw it away. Mariah Cross runs it down on the spartanead.
We'll being left to running a radio towel. Home white uniforms,
yellow numbers. Oh, nice cross over that time pulls up
off the mark, though wide left for cross rebound. Rockford
Rams done a nice job on the defensive boards. One
and done after the missus by the Zebras six three Rams,
(11:21):
why Pitch bothered out front bounce pass over left side,
sets her feet, but tear oh too strong on the
three look good, but just a little too much mustard
out of bounds. Will be Wayne Memorial basketball. And that's
what why Pitch can do. And they're gonna rotate different
players on there. They got Zoe high tower on or
now defensively and timeout going to be coming up for
Wayne Memorial. It'll be a full timeout and we'll take

Memorial that's four on the. Board remember five in the
new rule situation in a quarter puts you in to
the bonus. Situation there's no more one. Ones, donalley, though

she'll get two number twenty. Three an effective role player
(15:12):
For Brad. Wilson beautiful shot nothing and. Nylon AND i
tell you what we saw this year with our baskets for,
kids AND i think you can make an argument, too
even when you watch it for college. Basketball the women

free throws better than the boys sometimes with the. Guys good,
(15:32):
form beautiful, Exactly and that's how your dad would. Teach

(15:54):
Lee couldn't hear the whistle on our. End it's pretty
crowded here with the student sections as on the file
by the miss wash tower on the. BACKSIDE i thought
the three ball was going to go down from the right,
corner but she was found she went back up By.
Donnelly so a peer of free throws coming.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Up one thing for The rams to watch right, Now,

game at half. Times still a nice finish for The.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Zebras just bad recognition there for years ball and where
she played a near perfect. Half her team's got to
help her out, too and on the bench they were,

to twenty two at the. Break rockford Over Wayne. Memorial,
Yeah Anna Wi.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Pitch remember a scary moment early in this, game five
point thirty two on the clock in the first, quarter
she rolls her. Ankle it was quiet in, here but
she recovered from that well sixteen points to lead all
scorers at. Halftime Annay pitch The Ragning Miss basketball perfect
from the, field six to six field, goals two to
two from three point land and then the other big
(35:34):
star so far for The, rams the Junior Audrey muter
spa seven points and how about seven rebounds the game
high seven. Rebounds she only averages four a. Game she
had seven in the first half over For Wayne. Memorial
their star number five In Miss, Basketball Colleena. Bryant she
had seven points and nobody else with more than four.
(35:56):
Points Gabrielle gerald had four points off the bench for The.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
Zebras Kate higgins with those two files didn't play much
in the second. Quarter she does start the second. Half
is your Mkd funerholmes individual scoring, summary every, story every,
moment every day with eight locations of. Servey you brought
to by Mkd, unterholmes not wasting any. Time on their first,
Attempt mariah crossfiner trip on the right, side went off
the front of the ram. Rebound who else commuter spawl
For rockford well reset the sporting. You starting laps of
(36:25):
the second, Half addison y pitch, dangerous passed me down
To anna took a Shot wow coming over to challenge
that time of the swat Was nelson and she got
mostly body shot was no, Good So anna Y pitch
will go to line For Brad. Wilson same starting five
that started the. Game Anna y pitched the senior miss.
Basketball Addison y pitcherr younger sister of the Freshman Jordan
(36:45):
mattier is in. There the Junior Kate higgins playing with
the two, files and Then john on the. Spot so
far in my, Opinion audrey muterspaw number five the soccer
star five nine in the junior Is anna hits the
first For Wayne memorial and head Coach Jarvis mitch to
start the second. Half Kalina bryant Which rowford did a
good job in her mostly and A y pitch covering.
Her Then mariah. Crossed their two leading Scorers cross at
(37:08):
nineteen points per, Game brian at. Seventeen you Have zoe
High tower in, there Also Morgan smith and Then Mackenzie.
NELSON i tell you it was effective for. THEM i
thought Was Gabriel gerald coming off the bench as far
as down low For Wayne.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Memorial especially With Kate higgins on the, bench they kicked
it into.
Speaker 4 (37:28):
Her she got two easy, buckets.
Speaker 1 (37:31):
Skip pass over to, cross dribble, penetration leaves it For. Smith,
oh she got. This huoters bounce at eleven points per.
Game she's their third leading. Scorer let's see if they
can knock down some. Shots bore The zebras make this thing.
Interesting it's a five point game after that bucket and
a Y pitch losing the handles crossed the timeline high
screen From Kate higgins and that's a big screen to
get around and unable to do, so they had to
(37:53):
switch and Y pitch made them. Pay she knocks down the.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
Three, wow she is on fire seven to, seven has
not missed a shot for in the.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Field she now HAS i believe twenty one.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
Points and those are the little things too That Kate
higgins when she's in the game brings to the table.
Right that was a killer screen to free wy pitch
against the. Defender, bryant now dribbling away from the double,
team goes baseline kickout from the left elbow on the.
Way no bounced around a couple times trying to save
As addison wy. Pitch he stepped down the. Inline good

Is the previous previous largest lead was, thirteen but that
big three There rockford now late here in the third
quarter to fourteen point. Lead they can add to it
here with The Don lee at the free throw.
Speaker 1 (48:18):
LINE i love the different contributions time That rockford is getting.
TODAY i, mean how about Muter spaw des ray Don
ley has given a. Minutes and the REASON i say
that is Because Kate higgins has hit kind of kind
of watched herself a little bit of those two, personals
and all the subs are, contributing not just in, scoring,
rebounds defensive, plays, deflections the little things to make you
(48:41):
win a game like this when you're talking about the
talent that's at the state semi. Finals, oh some movement that,
time getting a quick. Start they're gonna whistle that. One,
yeah that was Easy Gabriel jerald that time as Desray
donnelly went up and she didn't like throw her off at.
All she just got a quick start trying to box
Out Ciana. Wolf even Though donney missed, It she'll get another. Opportunity,
(49:02):
yeah they see if.
Speaker 4 (49:03):
See if The rams can stay perfect at the, line
that would have been their first. Miss they're nine of.
Speaker 1 (49:07):
Nine second one is. Good makes him. Paid here's the
other thing to watch with that foul down. Here that
was the fifth foul in the quarter and way. Memorial
they have to be aggressive, here but if they pick
up files too. Quickly what was one of your keys
at the very.
Speaker 3 (49:23):
Start you get women throw, Line, yeah and they and
The zebras has done a great job with that throughout the.
Game but like you, mentioned now being down here sixteen,
points getting late in the, game they gotta be more.
Aggressive we're gonna see The rams shooting a lot more free.
Speaker 1 (49:36):
Throws firel whistled Against rockford will Send Kleina, briant who's
yet to really get going For wayne mmoyl to the
free throw, line knocks that one down one thirty three

Rockford, yeah it's just such. Confidence shortan shot that with
the junior from the corner.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
Whistle on the drin By brian on the, ground so
it'll be underneath the basket of the inbound For Waia.
Memorial and that's just to me pretty basketball to. Watch
The rockford program has really developed that where everyone can,
shoot can handle the, ball can. Pass it is now down,
low a little screen and open on the. Backside that
time with the lane Was Gabriel. Gerald nice job by
(51:03):
The zebras for an easy two full court. Pressure ye
pitch breaks it passes right Side Muter spaw in the back,
end no one home puts it up and.
Speaker 3 (51:11):
End god just great look that. Time great execution By.
Rockford trying to.
Speaker 1 (51:16):
Answer quickly back the other Way. Bryant but they can't
trade baskets really at this. POINT i, mean we still
got a quarter to, play but final thirty, seconds it's
still a fifteen point. Advantage they haven't chipped into. It
forty seven to thirty. Two remember this was just a
five point, Game rockford advantage at the, half twenty seven
to twenty. Two big third quarter by The. Rams Now
muterspaw hit the, deck jumping on our iss Cher old
(51:38):
to tie her, up AND i couldn't believe we didn't
have some type of whistle with contact And muterspaw kind
of slow getting. Up, oh now they are gonna whistle the.
Foul they're gonna get a, Hold they're gonna get McKenzie
nelson with the. Foul but that was a late. WHISTLE
i mean she was down on the ground then getting tied.
Speaker 3 (51:59):
UP i thought they should have called a foul On
gerald there, right diving in on top of Poor Audrey.
Speaker 1 (52:05):
Muterspa, WELL i think unless we couldn't hear, it it
has been pretty loud in. Here maybe it was, early
But muterspaw maybe the first thing she's done wrong all,
day just didn't make the free. Throw that's.
Speaker 3 (52:15):
It and that's the first missed free throw of the. Game,
rockford after ten in a. Row what a shooting. Night
you talked about why pitch, Too, yeah why pitch eight
of eight from the field four to four from behind
the arc and four to four from the free throw,
line has not missed a.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
Shot muterspaw missed it both but got her own. Rebound
she was the only one there in the. Lane wow
went right back to. Her Now Brad wilson wisely taking
a thirty second time out because he realized here's a
chance in an extra possession here with twenty point one seconds,

full court pressure now From. Wayne they're, desperate but, again
they've been so poised in this. Game you, know nine
turnovers so far For, rockford that's not too bad against

good job handling the.
Speaker 4 (55:55):
Ball they just need to.

Keep doing that for eight more minutes and they're gonna
be back in this championship.

inbounds they just set the ball. Down Rock for was
slow coming out of their huddle and they already had
a two second count Before kate even grabbed the. Ball,
YEAH i wondered what was going on over. THERE i
was looking at the, stats and they didn't waste any.
Time and so then when they threw it and went
over and back and now a triple. Try that's a big.
(56:22):
One nember the sophomore or second of the. Game and
just like, that it's a twelve point of. Minutes what

Speaker 3 (58:46):
Eyes, yeah she landed at the back of her head
right hit the hard floor here at The. Breslin but
one Thing i'll, SAY i think the officiating has been
very good in this.
Speaker 4 (58:55):
Game hasn't been an issue at. ALL i think it's
been very.
Speaker 1 (58:57):
Fair it's a veteran crew and it's been tough to
call because you wanted to play on as a pull up,
jumper cross around it. Out body's hitting the deck again
all over the. Place it Was gerald this time With. Higgins,
meanwhile we play on and that was a tough one
all the way, around but unable to get it was
cross Now matier reach him By. Nemer rockford fans are, saying,
(59:20):
hey there's some contact. There got to be tough for
the basketball and you got to make them call. It
that's what happened, there Good john By. Rockord can't lose your.
Composure was it never coming over the top or it
might have Been? Gerald it is On. Gerald that's her
third to keep an eye in that foul. Situation and
this is WHAT i was talking, about way momorreal that
is just their first. File they're going to be, Aggressive,
(59:41):

Nemer oh my block going to be called member saying
how DID i pick up the? Foll but just too.
Aggressive she reached in that time and she forced the
contact before she met Mount.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Higgins that's, right and you're exactly, right that's what. Happened
she ended up hitting the, deck but she was the
one that created that.
Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
Content she was moving out a. Position good job By
higginshoul protect the. Basketball that was gonna be my, point
you know. That Brad wilson at the quarterbreak, stressed we
have to be strong with the. Basketball they're gonna come after.
Me addison wy, Pitch, oh through the hands of a
tear now a steel zebra's not able to control at that,
time and she's frustrated with. Herself Was Morgan smith because
(01:00:34):
she saw that was going to be a. Layup probably
on the other, end zebras are hanging around. Though time
you look up at the fifteen point, games still plenty
of time six point thirty teen left to go on this.
One and by the, way they are all Over anna

Her it was two when she had one, Earlier, yes
it is. Now the backcourt in a y pitch double
team gets it to muter spa left Side addison y
pitch dribbles out of, traffic needs some help get to
the muter spaw cross all over. Her look at the
(01:01:20):
pressure defense By Wayne, memorial and now what do we?
Have Kate higgins is very, animated more Than i've ever seen,
her AND i think they're Gonna Gabriel gerald is going
to be called for the? Foul is that her? Fourth
(01:01:40):
or wasn't It? GERALD i thought they pointed at. Her
she's the one who's locking horns With Kate.
Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
Higgins, Yeah Mackenzie, nelson the other big, girl has four.
Fowls that is four On, gerald both of their big
girls with.

i gotta Believe zebrath might have got away with one.
Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
There Mariah cross lets it roll, up Then anna comes
up to the timeline to force her to pick it.
Up zebra's trying to conserve as much time as they
can with the basketball out. Front That's mike And darling
runner in the paint contact no battle for the rebound And,
wow gotta be careful. Here Abril gerald physical player Against
(01:05:17):
Jordan matteer and what do we? HAVE i think the
possession Arrow wow goes the way Of Wayne MEMORIAL i
thought it's, Yeah hold on a, second the arrow was
pointing to the. Right. Yeah did they switch it? Already
(01:05:38):
that was a quick. Arrow maybe they switched. It, yeah
Because Brad wilson, saying wait a. Minute, yeah BECAUSE i
looked over AND i thought it was gonna Be rockford.
BASKETBALL i must have switched switched it off quick and
all point blank range on the Inbounds Mackenzie nelson had.
It it went around and out off the. Window it's
been that kind of day for The zebra's break For.
(01:05:58):
Rockford Sianna wolf working Against, cross trying to keep her Off,
cross hounding her now to get it to miss basketball
and a y pitch looking, Around gotta be careful when
you turn your back behind the, back, dribble, bounce pass
over To matier and now a step in steel and
they're gonna Call. Bryant was a good call by the.
OFFICIAL i know she didn't like, it nor to The zebra,
fans but definitely there was a bump there on the reach.
Speaker 4 (01:06:21):
End, yes great. Call, yeah she tried to force.
Speaker 3 (01:06:23):
Something and again it's that spacing Of rockford Breat they
do such a great job of a and that's key
against a team like, this if you have two people
too close.
Speaker 1 (01:06:33):
Together, YEAH i was gonna say that's the Fifth fouel
was just making sure that because we had the possession
of the, SITUATION i didn't See Jordan mattier going to.
Line and now why is The Brad wilson, SAYING i
don't want anyone on the. LINE i don't want to
pick up any silly fowls and stop the clock at.
Speaker 3 (01:06:48):
All of, course last time they did, This brett that
nobody boxed out the shooter. Yep and And audrey muter
spot grabbed her own rebounds a.
Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Tear uncharacteristic for. Her too strong of the First she's
been a little bit off on the jumper today to
get the one three from the. Corner second one. Good
she's a seventy seven percent free throw. Shooter fourth point
of the afternoon For Jordan. Mattier the junior fifty one
to thirty seven of the lead is fourteen in favor
(01:07:17):
Of rockford four forty five and ticket left to. Go
pull up jumper By Bryant. Boy that was her best
looking shot of the day in movement that time For
brian off the dribble like, that off the Bounce Kate
higgins now helping against the pressure into the front, court
hands off To Seattle Wolf Siantle wolf with a left dribble,
drive kick out and a y pitch that might be
(01:07:38):
her first miss of the. Day just left a little
short Rebound. Sebus they throw it out and they threw
it Away Zoe Hide tower tried to outlet at that
time And gerald wasn't ready for it and threw it
out of bounce and.
Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
They give it right.
Speaker 3 (01:07:51):
Back that's A that's just the fifth turnover of the
game For Wayne rockford with twelve. Turnovers looking at the stats,
here one of the big stats you remember early On
wayne was out Rebounding. Rockford rockford has done a great
job on the boards thirty to twenty one edge and
rebounds for The.
Speaker 1 (01:08:08):
Rams the lead as it, does and can they hang
On as we're approaching the halfway point of the fourth,
quarter now they're doing a little keep. Away i'm surprised.
There let's see if they attack out of this. Though
they like to take it to the rim if they
get a clear. LANE i know there's no shot. Clock
they've got the ball handlers to do. It but SOMETIMES
i don't like it when you take the foot off the.
Gas if You're. Rockford they've got fifty one points on the,
(01:08:29):
afternoon was still four minutes of. Play there's the back
steeler coming for the double. Team that was never but
they called Out wolf To wolf and she recognized. It
and now a reach in foul and a grab gonna
be called Against Mariah. Cross and the mistake there is
you can be, aggressive but you don't want to send
number two to the free throw. Line she's their best
(01:08:50):
free throwsherter An annawi pitch and only one miss total
on the.
Speaker 4 (01:08:53):
Day, yeah you're, Right. BRET i think you're. Right rockford
going to a little bit of the four.
Speaker 3 (01:08:56):
Corners, look but they need to attack if they'd given
the op opportunity or you, know like you, said get
to the free throw.
Speaker 1 (01:09:02):
Line AND i know AS i say, that it counters
everything we talked, about, right good free throw shooting, teams
spacing like you talked about good ball. Handlers BUT i
just more times than, NOT i just think that you
might be a little bit. Early you can do that
maybe with two and a half minutes to.
Speaker 4 (01:09:16):
Go, yeah but if you're doing it and look into attack,
still it's.
Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
Right, different, right and a y pitch ON q by the,
way got them. Both what an. Afternoon three assists on the,
board twenty five points lead all scores back to The.
Way brian got a step on y pitch but couldn't.
Finish Way memorials good, chances just not able to consistently
knock down. Shots cross To. Bryant bryant drible penetration and
(01:09:42):
they're going to get a reach in. Foul that's a tough.
ONE i Thought mattier got ball there that was in close.
Quarters but it will be whistled Against. Rockford they've got
some to. Give not in the bonus fifty three thirty
nine after the two free throws by Y pitch on
the other end to inbounds for The zebras underneath their own.
Speaker 3 (01:10:01):
Basket bryant with fifteen points to leave The zebras nobody
else with more than six.

Speaker 1 (01:11:14):
Change it was funny because WHEN i saw him AND i,
think was, Yeah buffalo before, That, yes he, Went, yeah
he went To buffalo and then to, ALL i saw
him in A Mid American conference tournament, game And i'm,
like wait a, MINUTE i knew that. Guy Then i'm, like, oh,
yeah he's The romulus boys coach and coaching. Treat congratulations to.
HIM i, mean what a, fast skyrocketing career he's. HAD i,
Mean alabama one of the best teams in the, country
(01:11:35):
no doubt about.
Speaker 4 (01:11:35):
IT i was joking with.
Speaker 3 (01:11:36):
Him just a few years, ago he was selling cheetos
out of his classroom In romulus to raise money for
his basketball. Program now he's making what five million a year.
Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
Exactly he doesn't have to worry about paying Because nil
took care of. That fifty three thirty nine fall knocked
out of Bounds, Momentarily zebra's inbounds on The farce island
in front of their, bench down fourteen block against him
three twenty. Three never didn't hesitate fire. Three you're, right
she can shoot it, slowly. Mackerel she doesn't need much,
room and she's kind of Like Finnie. Johnson you can
(01:12:06):
see because all the fans up on their feet whenever
she just rises to. Shoot what a job By never
she makes an out eleven point, game just like. That
fifty three forty Two higgins and now foul Against bryant
trying to steal by the Way Kaleena brian if you're,
wondering she's just one of those who can feel the.
Statue fifteen, points she's got two, rebounds she's got seven.
(01:12:28):
Assists did pick up the foul. There we'll Send Kate
higgins the. Line but she just hasn't had enough consistent
help around, her most Notably Mariah. Cross you you talk
about it's kind of had an off. Day, Higgins ben's the,
knees lets it, fly nothing but nylin great. Touch only a.
Junior they just kind of found. Her she didn't play
(01:12:49):
her freshman, year played last, year worked on her, game
has a future whatever she wants to, do but certainly
getting some interest now after outstanding junior. Campaign one of
the leaders on This rockford bunch twenty six and. One
The rams coming in and you just look at some
of the teams they. Played they're gonna play, tonight like
(01:13:10):
to come see if they BEAT i Mean frankenmouth all
comers For Brad Wilson rockford Is higgins get some both two.
Speaker 4 (01:13:16):
Beautiful free throws there By.
Speaker 3 (01:13:17):
HIGGINS i was gonna say she's the only starter who
shoots less than seventy percent from the free throw, line
shoots fifty eight.
Speaker 4 (01:13:24):
Percent but she looked pretty darned good there with two of.
Speaker 1 (01:13:26):
Them's fifty five forty two and Now Bryant missy the
three rock for the. Rebound look, Out edison Wy. Pitch
The Sienle Wolf wolf double team tied. Up, Oh Brad
wilson wanted the time, out but he didn't get. IT
i THINK i was a good call by the. Official
he saw what was gonna, happen but the tie up
was already. There the good news is For brad it's
(01:13:46):
Still rockford. Basketball that's.
Speaker 3 (01:13:49):
Right thirteen point lead was at a under three minutes to.
Go you get that, feeling you know you're just holding,
on holding.
Speaker 1 (01:13:55):
On BUT i hope we're doing a good job of
it because we've seen Way memorial a couple of three
and they can knock him. Down this, is all of a,
sudden an interesting. Ballgame it's a matter of. Possessions Sianna
wolf in the Middle commuter's bass played a whale of
a game. Today addison Wy pitch on the keep away
double teams are coming all over the. Place it's a hot.
Potato wolf gets To Dana y pitch over To Addison
(01:14:16):
y pitch dribbling out Front addison top of the, key left. Side,
yeah it's classic four. Corners Dean smith would be Proud
Sienna wolf working Against nemmer and what that, does. Folks
it seems like a little thing we're talking, about but
you can recognize the double teams before they come and
dribble away more a pass away from them when you
space out. Correctly it's when you get too close that
(01:14:39):
it makes the double teams that much more. Effective and
now never just forced the, foul and.
Speaker 3 (01:14:43):
That's her fifth. Foul she just followed out of the game,
there which is a huge.
Speaker 1 (01:14:47):
Loss, Yeah AND i don't. KNOW i, mean she gave
herself up for the. Team AND i know you're, saying
but she's probably one of their best three point. SHOOTERS
i would have had someone else coming in.
Speaker 3 (01:14:54):
Foul, Yeah and they if they wanted to have a
chance to come, back they need her to nail a
couple of.
Speaker 4 (01:14:59):
Threes but she that's going to be forced to go
to the.
Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
BENCH i think in that, case you almost have a designated, fouler,
right somebody you bring in just to say, hey and
WHEN i tell you go, foul and especially when it's
in someone's hands other than number, two which she also
followed AN a y. Pitch i'm telling you she will
make you, pay, folks and that is why she Is Missed.
Basketball cool customer and this doesn't face her. Tom how
about four years as she came up as a freshman
(01:15:25):
to the varsity, level played with her, sister and four
years she's ended her season at least at The president. Set, wow,
yeah and twice ended in the.
Speaker 3 (01:15:34):
Semis and it looks like The rams are going to
be going back to the finals this.
Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
Year fifty seven to forty two as she knocked him
both down triple try way off the, mark battle for the,
rebound last. Touched good call By Mackenzie nelson twenty eight
on the afternoon For Miss basketball senior AN a y,
pitch have it a? Day second on there Is muter
small right in front of, us and she's had a
(01:15:59):
wonderful afternoon with twelve points and for twelve.
Speaker 3 (01:16:02):
Rebounds yeah, yeah, apage there's four rebounds a. Game she's
got twelve.
Speaker 1 (01:16:08):
Here why DO i think our awards are gonna be
pretty easy coming? Up in the postgame, SHOW i would,
think so we've got two awards and, uh two players
that are very deserving kind of standing out for rock
from this. Performance As Sianna wolf was, fouled, well go
to the free throw. Line we understand coming back from
an acl. Injuries she misses the first that she has
(01:16:31):
a moniscous. INJURY i think that she's gonna have to
take care of but excited to see her back for
her senior year because she is a whale of a.
Player knocks down the. SECOND i know she's trying to
cut it. Out she doesn't want to miss this championship.
RUN i don't blame her after all the time she
missed in the regular. Season so after making the second
fifty eight to forty, two sixteen point, Lead bryan hesitation
(01:16:51):
drip Underneath, higgin shuts her, down throws it, away trying
to feed it to the. Middle Sianna wolf of The, Steel, Now,
anna why pitch over the top To, addison skip pass
over To. Spaw they don't need to shoot, Again it's
just a matter of when they get. Fouled and then
flying by was more Than smith to Grab Kate. Higgins
So rockford can isis went. Away and how about The.
Rams they're a minute twenty three away from playing for
(01:17:15):
another state championship and improving to twenty seven and. One

Rockford, yeah ann a Y pitch was outstanding right from the,
start couldn't miss finish eight for ten from the, field
four to five from three point, land perfect ten of
ten from the free throw line for a game high thirty.
Speaker 4 (01:22:24):
Points wow For aana Y.

Speaker 3 (01:22:26):
Outstanding the Other rockford ram and double figures was the

an outstanding game for. Her but they got contributions a
little bit from a lot of. People Kate higgins finished
with five, Points Jordan, Mattier Siena, wolf And Desiree donnelly

Game Morgan smith with, Four Mackenzie nelson with, two And
zoe High tower with. ONE a couple of stats that
jump out at Me brett Shooting rockford forty seven, Percent
Wayne memorial just twenty seven, percent and then the Rebounding
rockford with a nice thirty three to twenty four edge
on the, board so they shot better and if they,

(01:23:45):
a very impressive performance going on to tomorrow's championship.
Speaker 1 (01:23:49):

brought to you BY Mkd Funeral. Holmes in this one by,
Quarter rockford up to two to twelve ten after one
With Wayne. Memorial then they increase reset lead to five
as they Outscored Wayne memorial fifteen to twelve in that second,
quarter the leader at the break twenty seven to twenty.
Two it was the big third quarter By rockford led
(01:24:09):
By anna Y. Pitch she was. Phenomenal they were knocking down,
Shots muterspa was right there kind of as her robin
to the, batman if you, will and forty seven thirty.
Two they exploded for twenty points to just ten For Wayne.
Memorial opening up a fifteen point advantage going to the
final eight. Minutes and when you've got that type of,
lead you've got free throw, shooters you can spread the
floor and handle the ball Like rockford. Has it was
(01:24:32):
just a matter of time before they put them. Away
sixty one forty two to the.
Speaker 3 (01:24:35):
Final that's, Right And i'm, LOOK i just found something
here on the stat sheet For Brad wilson to yell
at AN oi pitch about she didn't have any. Rebounds it's,
like come, on what's going? On thirty points three assists
