(00:02):
Oh Yes, Today we are liveed Carrie, where the Blue Temples,
the IN ten second place team,are set for a first place conference showtown
versus the top team, the ColonelCrawford Eagles, whose lead in the standings
will evaporate unless they win this game. Hello, I'm Kurtan Richards, so

(00:24):
glad to have you first some Saturdayafternoon hoops on Magic ninety five to nine.
Our girls high school basketball game ofthe Week is presented by Matthew's Honda
Acuras. The stakes aren't clear.If Colonel Crawford wins, the Eagles will
enjoy a game and a half cushionin the standings with only four conference contests
remaining. Based on how this seasonhas been going, winning today's game would

(00:47):
put the Eagles in great shape andthe request for the program's first N ten
championship and varsity girls basketball Colonel Crawfordwould be two conference wins away from clinching
at least a share on the IfCarrie wins here today, the Blue Devils
will suddenly volt to the top ofthe standings, overtaking Colonel Crawford by a
half game with only three conference contestsremaining for Carrie versus Buckeye Central, b

(01:11):
Cyrus, and Upper Satusky. TheBlue Devils would thus regain control their own
path to the title, or atleast a share of it, and place
tremendous pressure on Crawford to win outand their four remaining in ten contests versus
Seneca East, Buckeye Central, Winford, and the Mohawk. We know that
Winford is the only team to beColonel Crawford in a game. So far

(01:33):
this season, the Eagles are fifteenand one, the Blue Devils fourteen and
two. Looking at some team comparisonsfor this game between the home carry Blue
Devils and visiting Colonel Crawford Eagles.When it comes to scoring, Carrie the
second in the conference, averaging fortyeight and a half points per game.
That's four points more per game thanCrawford at forty four and a half.

(01:55):
The only team averaging more than Carrieis Winford, and that's just by half
point at forty nine points per game. Defensively, though, Colonel Crawford is
by far the best in the conference, holding opponents to twenty four points per
game. That's just staggering, andthat's fourteen and a half points per game
better than Carrie defensively, and Carriejust so happens to have the second best

(02:17):
defense in the end ten, statisticallyholding opponents to thirty eight and a half
points per game. On the reboundingfront, the edge returns to Carrie,
and significantly so is the Blue Devil'saverage thirty two rebounds per game. Colonel
Crawford averages nine fewer boards per contestsat twenty three now, Carrie's big rebounding

(02:38):
number includes a conference best of seventeenoffensive rebounds per game, and Coacho Flaherty
has noted to us that it ispartly a function of a lot of misshots
by his own players, but latelyCarrie has been shooting the ball much better
while continuing to attack the glass.As for turnovers, Colonel Crawford the best

(03:00):
in the conference, losing the ballon turnovers only thirteen times per game.
Carrie averages sixteen and a half turnoversper game. On threes, edge to
Crawford, Eagles shoot threes at thirtytwo percent and makes six and a half
per game. The players collectively shootthrees at twenty one percent for Carrie and
the Blue Devils make two and ahalf per game. Both are conference lows

(03:23):
finally, free throws. Colonel Crawfordas a team shoots free throws as sixty
one percent. Carry as a teamat fifty three percent. The Crawford gets
to the line nine and a halftimes per game. Carrie gets to line
more, shooting fifteen free throws pergame. Well, some players to watch
will definitely keep an eye on howCarrie seeks to contain Colonel Crawford's junior guard,

(03:46):
Mira Holt, a leading scorer andrebounder for the Eagles twelve points per
game along with five rebounds per game. For a Holt. On the other
side, Crawford will have to accountfor Carrie's senior posts can leave Phillips,
the leading scorer and rebounder for theBlue Devils eleven and a half points and
seven boards per game four Phillips.Both players shoot the ball from the field

(04:11):
at fifty one percent to lead theirteams in that category as well. We
prepared a couple of keys to thisgame for Carrie withstand the pressure and protect
possessions. The Colonel Coffer players comeout with relentless pressure and they communicate well,

(04:31):
so Carrie's ability to maintain poise underpressure and execute their offensive sets will
be crucial. Carrie players might haveto find some ways to score even on
contested shots and try to draw fouls. When they do get the open looks,
they need to cash in more timesthan not. As for Colonel Crawford,
control the tempo and box out.The Eagles thrive in low scoring games.

(04:57):
They do a strong job of notgetting rushed. The Eagles, however,
are statistically playing against a superior reboundingteam, so a lit'tle be incumbent
upon the Colonel Crawford players to boxout to prevent the second chance opportunities that
the Blue Devils have been benefiting fromthis season. As far as injury report,
the Carry Blue Devils are healthy,but Colonel Crawford has a couple of

(05:20):
players out. Ella AG five foursophomore. She's been out for a while
injured left leg. She is herewith the team with a brace on.
But now much more recent injury andvery significant is Aila mckibbon. She is
out. She's with the team,but she's wearing a boot on her right

(05:40):
foot. She's a starter for thisteam, So they have a starter down
This late in the season certainly canbe a challenge, but these Colonel Crawford
Eagles are a very tough team.As a result of Alan mckibbon out of
the lineup, Lexi Rush will takeher place in the starting lineup. We
have a moment wolf go through allof the starters first. For the visiting

(06:03):
Eagles, they start five foot twojunior Gabby Rosten. She is the point
guard. Five foot seven junior MiraHolt. She is the leading scorer for
this team. Five foot five seniorAllison Weissman, she's their number two scorer
on this team. Five foot sixsenior Lynnee mckibbon, so she does remain

(06:25):
in the starting lineup. She isfully healthy, although her twin sister,
Aila mckibbon is out as we noted, and as a result of Aila alb
five foot eight senior Lexi Rush intothe starting lineup for the Colonel Crawford Eagles
this afternoon. For the home carryBlue Devils, they start five foot seven
senior Kelsey Bursby, five foot eightsenior Riley Row, five foot two senior

(06:46):
Ella Klinger, five foot six juniorRiley Yost, and five foot eight senior
Kenley Phillips. Rachel Reinhart to becoming off the bench usually in short orders.
Sometimes Ryan Hart actually starts in thegame, but coach of Flaarty he
can make some adjustments. Sometimes it'sdue to the opponent that they are facing.

our game officials Ryan Avers, TomFoley, and David Stoyko and then just

(11:09):
fully in the middle and mirroor Holtfor Colonel Crawford jumping it up versus Kelsey
Bursby for Carrie. This is bummballs in the air and Kelsey Bersby gets
up with the right hand and tipsit to her teammatee Riley Yos running the
point for the Cary Blue Devils rightto left. From our perspective, they
start off the offense. They wantto get off to a quick start if
possible. As they get it apie Yos to the right point to Bersby

(11:33):
falling down his row. They'll gettingto the right corner. Three clinger as
fires there. Boss loose down lowthe name mckimmon gets her hands onto the
ball and Uh, it looks likethey just ruled it out of bounds on
the baseline off carry. So herecomes Colonel Crawford first possession of this game.
They'll face a full core press andHolts gotta find somebody to break free.

(11:54):
And that's what deflect that stolen byRow down though and knocked out of
bounds by the Eagles. Great defenseright there for Riley Rowl to get that
ball for Carrie, so baseline himbound for Bersby to the left wing to

(12:16):
early turtlover in the first minute ofthis game rush for three left side and
skimmings the net out of bound tothe baseline. So back for the carry.
Blue Devils, so burstby to winbound the ball to Yost against that
pressure to air, Lenaima Kimmin isright under defensively, Yost knows what to

(12:37):
expect, brings it across the timeline. Leney a bit physical up there to

two to nothing with just two minutesgone by in this the first quarter of

(13:52):
play rightly Yo sw with it uphigh around the screen from Phillips the right
side, Raw right back up toPhillips to the top cardet by Holt.
What's the ball above her head tothe left arc and a whistle. We
get a call we took her awayfrom the ball. So it is on
Lexi rush five eight senior for ColonelCrawford. So first foul this game.

(14:18):
Charged to the eagle, so inboundunderneath Bersby for Carrie looks for someone to
break free to deflected by Whiteman,but on the bound so stays with Carrie
to Bersby again to inbound the ballfor carry up two to nothing five in
the first quarter'clock. You knew thiswould be a defensive battle that one deflected
by Rush. That does wind upwith raw with the right side line up

(14:41):
to Clinger. Ruston is on her. They're around the screen from Phillips and
to the top two eos looks overat her head coach oh Flaerny calling the
signals and right back to the rightside the Clinger just pass to the left
point to Bersby, to the leftsideline to Raw looking in and then Pusund
a dripple to the top two Bersbytaking it right out white ben help defense
coming from mckimmon and the ball deflectedout of bounds bile in a so it

(15:05):
does stay with Carrie and an opportunityfor Ella Clinger of Carrie to tie the
laces on the right shoes. Shedoes so quickly carry with the ball up
two to nothing for twenty one onthe first quarter clock. Persby on the
embound in the baseline whistle on thefive second violation right back for the Colonel
Crawford Eagles. A couple of turnoversfor Carrie, so Miro Holt to inbound

(15:28):
the ball for the Eagles. Thetop score for Colonel Crawford the Eagles so
far no points down to to nothingin bound two rush. Let's see with
the pass a head to hold inthe left sideline, looks to drive in,
squirms through and then stolen by Persby, who leads the intendance deals at
three and a half a game,takes all the way with the left hand
and scores Kelsey Persby that was allher the defense head the twos four and

(15:52):
two nothing. Carrie gets Roston intothe front court to left side to Holt
goes down to dribble the right sideto rush off the ball, fake looking
at challenge. Phillips with the righthand been too strong. Weeks not rebound
taken by Row Carry Paul and Rileylooks up pushing Ral just taking it all
the way with the layup, andis unusual for COLONL. Crawford to allow
a player to go coast to coast, but Riley Row did just that and

(16:15):
Zach Bower calls for the time out. Understandably is his eagles not quite looking
as sharp as usual, so he'sgoing to put a stop to that.
But how bow Rally Row really playingaggressively in this Game's talking to her a
little bit before the contest. Shewas really fired up to play in this

(16:37):
one, as really all the BlueDevils were. And yeah, again we
know the stakes of this contest.Both Carry and COONL. Crawford. I
mean, a couple of teams haveimproved significantly from one season ago to become
the leaders in the conference. Thinkabout last year or Carry and Crawford tied
for third and e and ten behindsecond place Upper San Dusky and the conference

(17:00):
champion Buckeye Central had both the BlueDevil's Eagles finished five games back of the
buck Cats, but here they arethe top teams carry leading at six to
nothing and Lexi Deray is off thebench for coach Fauer. He's looking to
change things up. She normally comesoff the bench. She's out there fast

(17:22):
as she has replaced Alexi Rush anduh yeah, something going on at the
scorer's desk. I'm not sure whathappened. They needed to communicate something there,
but Colonel Crawford does have the balltrailing at six to nothing in bound
to Deray and Lexi on the moveright sideline. She's got that quickness into

(17:48):
the front cordial to Whiteman. Thelapt point Roston opened for three but doesn't
take it now not open anymore asRachel Reinhardt, who just checked into the
game for Carrie's us right on herand on the switch. Reinhardt is guarding
Roston at the mid court logo bouncepast the lept point two Deray and is
row on her. Deray with onetrimble and needs some help. Uses the
pivot put to the right side toRustin off a ball fake Ruston on the

(18:11):
penetration bounce pass out to lone mKimben working one on one against birdsby Lonee
taking it in right side out toRosten in to the right wing, a
series of pivots there. Double team'sare out to Lonee four to three and
mckimmon's tray off the mark and arebound taken by birth by carry ball.
They head to rein Hart and mckimmenis right on rhin Hart to the top.

(18:32):
Two yosts for the carry Blue Devilsleading at six to nothing with three
fifty four to go in the firstcorner, and the Colonel Crawford faithful calling
first and defense for the Eagles toa trailing gets six to nothing at Carrie.
Some contact between Roston and Yost,no call as a ball tipped out
to Row drives underneath pass ah andit winds up at the Colonel Crawford bench

(18:52):
out of bounce. He was tryingto find Reinhart. We couldn't get that
one connected gold all right, Soit's Colonel Crawford. Trailer gets sick to
nothing to ray into the front cordfour the Eagles guarded by rail to lip
point two Roustin. It's Ryan hardon her Rustin on the drive kicks down

(19:12):
the left side to mckimbon. Sheheads towards the yard, getting to the
lane to the right side whistle.There's contact and a blocking fowl on the
riley row for Carrie. So that'sthe first personal for any of the Blue
Tebles so far in this game.It is charged to row three twenty one
to go in the first quarter inbound hold to the right side to deray

(19:34):
to the topped whiteman. Four tothree. It's up in the air front
hour, no balls loose left cornerand it is back to the carry Blue
Temples. So Colonel Crawford a littlebit cold shooting so far here at Carrie.
A lot of game left. Withthree twelve to go in the first
quarter, carry with the ball leadingits six to two nothing use with the

(19:57):
tribble working against mckibbon into the frontcourt screen set by Phillips to the right
side, Bersby hit the baseline callfor a traffle before putting down the dribble.
So that's four turnovers for Carry sofar in this first corner. As
Colonel Crawford gets the ball back downsix to nothing with three to zero one

(20:18):
to go in the first Rouston tryingto bring into the front court and does
quickly carted by r eine Hart,cross over to the left hand, bounce
past the left point two Holt andsee if she starts putting up some shots.
Yes, she's a very dangerous shooter, but Bersby is a great defender.
Help defense comes from Rowe stops inthe free throw line to this hold
to the top to deray off adouble team to mckimmon and not open their

(20:40):
as Phillips is right on her.Mckimmon drives in, goes up high hold
for the three. There it isnear a. Holt knocks down the tray
to trim the deficit in half.Her first who it is Carrie with a
six three lead Yos bringing the ballin front of Blue Devils. Since mckimbon
a run on her, he isYos calls a new play for Carrie based

(21:02):
on the direction from Coacho Flaherty apie to row at the top of the
key is deray on her. Phillipsays the screen rowl with the dribble to
the left arc the left point twoYost guarded by mckimbon. Yost drives in.
Help defense comes from home past theleft side to Phillips from the left
block powers up left hand. Itdances up the lid whistle hand looks like
you get a foul call. Theycalled it on Kiley Phillips for the carry

(21:29):
Blue doubles, so first personal onPhillips. Emily Brodman making her first appearance
for Carrie as Riley Row gets herfirst rest for the Blue Devils. So
it is six to three carry withthe league. Colonel Crawford with the ball,
Lexi Deray with the dribble and Derayshe's a dangerous scorer out to the
right corner to rush for the tripledrive. She ties the game, so

(21:53):
Lexi rush knocks it down. Scoretime and six carry with the ball.
One forty to go in the firstyost to the right side to Ryan hard
she is Carrie's dangerous three point shooter. As Ruston stays in front of her,
rein Hart tries to use serious screen. Helped defense come from Holt passing
to the lane, helped Mersby tothe top yost three front of the rim.

(22:15):
No hold colors a rebound for ColonelCrawford, then falls down the left
sideline is out of pounds. Therewas no contact. They're ruled by the
official Bursby was over there. Butyeah, coach Bower, he's making his
argument, pleadingus case, saying yesshe had hands on him. So Bersby
on the dbound to the right cornerto ryin Hard for to carry Blue Devils

(22:37):
in a six to sixth tie withColonel Crawford, but one seventeen to go
in the first quarter. Jos backto Reinhardt at the right side screen set
by Phillips to her left, goingaround and grin Hart stops the dribble.
Did you somehow bounce pass towards Yos? So the sideline could not save her
from going out of bounds. LoneHeart tapping her on chest, indicating that

(23:03):
the devil was her fault. Soit is hold on the inbound to dray
to the right side rush of threein the previous trip, this time cut
off by Phillips. Rush takes itinside. Man hits with a two hander,
and Colonel Crawford has the first leadof this game, up eight to
six. LEXI rush for a coupleof hoops for the Ecals. It's back
for the blue tubles, Yo,and we get to reach in foul uh

(23:27):
hie or Colonel Crawford hold on Lenaemckimmon, so Riley Rowe back in for
Carrie Kenley Phillips gets her first restaurantof blue tubles. It's Carrie ball training

(23:52):
get eight to six Colonel Crawford thirtyseven seconds ago in the first passed down
low caught by Ron new Saints fromgoing out bound baseball baseline on up high
to Yosta left arc out to leftside to Berthby fixing the three. Then
tries a passage traffic but appeared tobe off the left foot of Deray.
It was so it does stay withCarrie leaving twenty three point seven seconds on

(24:12):
the first quarter clock. So RachelRyan Hard to win bound the ball in
front of the Colonel Crawford bench downby to the Blue Devils in bound to
raw dribbling in against Holt throws upwith the right hand front iron no rebound
rush eighteen seconds here for the Eaglesgetting out to the point. Gardner often
in a cross country star with thespeed, gets it up. Had to

(24:34):
a mirror. Holt garnered here byRyan Hart Holt between two a losing control
out of bounds. This right backto the carry blue temples. Yeah,
Holt, she thought it was Crawfordball. But if it said nope,
fits carry ball, it's all rightback for carry on in a travel called

(24:57):
on Ryan Hart as Roston jumped rightin front of her defensively. This is
what Colonel Crawford does. So onlytwo point four seconds left here, gotta
get a quick release here up torush in three point lan three is up,
rush up. The heel does notgo. So at the end of

(25:17):
one it is Colonel Crawford eight Carriesix. We'll be back for the start
of the second quarter. So gladyou're with us. Four our Matthews Hondaker
a girls high school basketball game ofthe Week, I'm matching ninety five time
an Tyheart Radio High School Basketball Magicninety five nine second quarter time Colonel Crawford
with the ball leading at eight tosix at Carrie line. Mckimmon with the

(25:41):
dribble up high out there with LexiRush who's leading everyone in scoring with the
five points, and then the patdeflected and Ryan Herd gets her hands in
there with a tie up the SessionaroKerry Blue Devils. They've got Riley Jose,
Rachel, Ryan Hart, Riley Row, Emily Brought and Kelsey Bursby.

(26:02):
So yo's two. Bersby at theright point feats it down low to Bronman
surrounded by Eagles to row out toleft side right hard for three, and
that carrams off the lid, ballsloose down low to rebound mckimpen pushing it
up for the Eagles up by tworight side and Whiteman for three. Allison
Whiteman with her first who coming offa fourteen point performance versus Van lou in

(26:26):
their previous game, giving Colonel Crawfordan eleven to six lead and a three
four Birsby the answer for Kelsey pullingcarry back to within two. It's eleven
nine. Colonel Crawford with the ballleft the right with Alexei Durrey, dribbled
drive into the paint to the whistle. He called for a travel substitution for

(26:51):
unnumber two Ye Boston, so GabbyRosston on for Lenae McKibben foran o' Crawford.
Ella Klinger returned to the carry lineup. Phillipson appears the left side here

(27:14):
and Clinger hads the ball, dribblessours a left corner, working on dray
a pie left side to eos aroundthe screen from Bersby, but going around
it as Roston help defense comes fromRuss his hands up and it's only a
steal for Whiteman down the court getsthe contact, Allison Whiteman ready to shoot
a pair. All she got hithard, fell to the deck, but

(27:36):
Allison Whiteman ready to go to theline. The person was on Emily Brodman.
That was a hard foul by Bronman, but just trying to stop the
hoop. And no one with moreexperience for the Eagles than Whieman playing in
her sixty ninth varsity contests today andAllison here at the line, first free
throw and I waited to say it. She's her best free throw shooter at

(28:00):
seventy five percent, but missed onthat first one. I don't know if
the hard contact that she received momentsago was any factor. But Allison with
one more second one oh missed thebells, but an offensive rebound inside for
Holt so Karen o'crawford keeps the possessionalive. The ruston right back to hold

(28:21):
on the left corner, drives into the top to Deray, akes on
the three heads inside Deray the lefthander doesn't go, but a blocking foul
von Kelsie Versby first personal on Bursbyand two team fouls on carry in this
second quarter, So Lexi Deray,who's tremendous off the bench for Colonel Crawford,

(28:45):
first free throw does not go forDeray, so some struggles at the
line for the Eagles. In Decemberwhen these two teams played in North Robinson
Deray led the way off the benchwith twelve points. Second free throw here,
and Lexi makes one of two livingColonel Crawford a twelve to nine lead.

(29:07):
First point for Lexi Terrey carry withthe ball with six ten to go
in the second quarter, dumping itinto ral from Birsby, falls down but
gets it out to Phillips. Somehigh left side clinger into raw dribble drive
takes a strong against Rough and scoresor Riley row Poles carried within one,
but Colonel Crawford looked at Pus Wifemandown low and called for a travel and

(29:33):
Wifeman appears to be shaken up,but she's helped up by her fellow senior
Alexi little name of Kevin. Yeah. Wifeman is coming out of the game,
replaced by Mira Holt. Wifeman appearsto be okay, but she'll get
a moment to shake it off onthe bench. Meanwhile, it is Carrie

(29:55):
Basketball with a chance to get thelead back down twelve eleven with five forty
five to go in this second quarter, Clinger with it the left point guarded
by Deray as Accipam finds the cutterRal misses follow. Yos got it from
the weak side. Riley Yos givescarry the lead back. It's thirteen to
twelve. Yos with four points holdhas it down. Know the other direction

(30:15):
for Colonel Crawford to mckibbon and alame McKibben tis the left handed the lay
of port the Eagles as Colonel Crawfordgets the lead right back fourteen to thirteen.
Crawford the five seventeen to go.In the second quarner, Clinger with
it at the right side line foundline extended, puts down to dribble to
the top two Bersby. It ismckimmon on her to the left point to

(30:37):
Yoss back drimple between the rings rightside to Clinger. There's good movement away
from the balls. Clinger dribbles itand it stops. Could you some help
here? Gets the high to Bersbyfeeds it inside, inflected by hold butt
to Yos's left side. Shot doesn'tgo and the rebound for Russ but throws
it away to bersby first second toe. Oh, and then she's called for
the travel. That's right, shedid the right call. I think she

(31:02):
was a bit decisive on whether shewas going to pass it or maybe shoot
it. As a Robin Aman makingher first appearance for Colonel Crawford in this
game, the five nine freshmen andtoray from the free throw line, no
good on the right hander and arebound for bersby Carrie bowl down one the
four thirty eight to go in thesecond quarter in a three for Clinger.

(31:26):
Got it Ella Klinger. She hasbeen a revelation as of late this week.
She hit four threes in the firstgame this week versus Kenton, and
then four more threes on Thursday.And it looks like we're getting a timeout
or maybe no Carrie with a sixteento fourteen lead, all the players had

(31:52):
there returning back to the floor.Yeah, it seemed like there's going to
be some sort of timeout, butno, just officials, communitycation of some
sort. Miss the reason, butit is Colonel Crawford with the ball.
And down to claiming with it inthe back court, gets in the head
to hold with an upright ripple mirrorsurveys the court guarded by Berthy, crosses

(32:14):
over to the left hand, usea little spin move into the lane.
Help defense come from Clinger out tothe right side for rusting for three off
the mark at a rebound four yoscarry ball right to left, trying to
add to a two point lead beforeoh seven to go until halftime the left
point two Clinger who hit the threeon a previous trip featured inside the Phillips
oh knife ball fake balld. Theymissed the lay up after faking holt and

(32:35):
right back down direction long pass aheadfor holding out of bounds at the baseline
too far ahead trying to find aimento buy my unofficial count bill teams with
seven turnovers. That turnover committed byColonel Crawford. So carry with the ball.
Yo is the point guard bringing itup, tapping her head to call
to play to the right corner torow baseline move underneath there's contact. I

(33:00):
was like, wow, well they'rejust saying out of bounds all that time.
So Aiman returns to the Crawford bench. Jallason Weieman onto the floor again
for the Eagles. Crawford with theball trailing against sixteen to fourteen eight or

(33:20):
Austin looking to bring him to thefront, Cord ahead to mirror, hold
up to Rosten at the right point, followed by Phillips for carry. I
still keeps from belive and breaks downthe defense, takes it inside whistle.
Then she'll get to a nice rippledrop there at Bersby picking up the personal.

(33:42):
So second personal on Kelsey Birsby tofive to seven Senior. Three team
fouls for Carrie in the second quarterand Rostin at the free throw line.
First one goes for Gabby. Youknow sheson intent. First teamer in cross
country has three in ten championships inthat sport. Also in all Ohio win

(34:07):
and track and field finish third inthe state in the powful Roston second free
throw for Gabby and hits that one. So well done for Gabby. Rossen
come with free throws ties the gameat sixty. So it is carry with
the ball trying to get the leadback Yo pass deflected by Weisman and winds

(34:28):
up with hold. Colonel Crawford pallso hold behind him back with the dribble
to the left hand to Rossen,and Gabby puts down the dribble guarded closely
here over to the right side tomckimmon, working on Phillips out to Whiteman
another three perhaps and bounces out andget a wedgie. Oh gosh. So

(34:51):
there, yeah, they go withthe possession arrow. So Colonel Crawford does
keep the ball, and this timeElla clingers tying the shoes of her tying
the laces of her right shoe.She had to tie the lass her left
shoe in the first quarter, soshe's just running so hard out there,
all right. So Colonel Crawford withthe ball scored time at sixteen three oh

(35:12):
one to go until halftime, holdingwith the imbound to Doray for the top
two Whiteman the right side to Russin. That's into the lane. Cut off
my clinger to the top of myhip been four three, and that carrems
off and the rebound one there byYoss mulable hands went up there for those
log pass ahead two Phillips down low. Defense comes there from Whiteman a dolls

(35:34):
and Whiteman called for the push forColonel Crawford. So that is the first
personal one Whiteman Lexi Rush back outthere for Colonel Crawford, replacing Alexei Dray

(35:54):
So Rachel Ryan Hart win bound baselinefor Carrie gotta get it down, does
just apparently got it out on timeto Raw high left side taking your right
at Rush Ral aggressively upstrong and getsthe call rarely Raw heading to the free
throw line, so Lexi Rush pickingup another personal second two personals on the

(36:15):
five eight senior rush Riley Raw tothe free throw line, versatile three sport
athlete that Raw is first, oneis up well, that one does not
go for Riley second teamer and volleyballand part of the reigning EN ten champions

(36:37):
and softball. Here's Ral for Carry'srushed back to the bench for Colonel Crawford,
replaced by Durey. Second free throwral for Carry and that one's off
the lid and the rebound for Holtfor Colonel Crawford, passing it ahead to
Rouston, finds the cutter Dwifeman Manthat one is just being clean, good

(36:58):
clean defense by yell back the otherway for Ryan Hard. The past deflected
there is to try to get toPhillips on the reach at foul. It's
on Mirro Holt for Colonel Crawford,so first personal on hold. The five
seventh junior went bound to Phillips highleft side to Yos going to buy m

(37:25):
Kippen. Yoss try to take itright at her, throws up in the
lane too strong, offens rebound forPhillips doesn't go and Yanke done it there
by hold. Colonel Crawford ball longpass ahead to Weithman in transition is up
in the right hand and gets foulby Clinger. And Weithman has wound up
on the floor more time than Ican count in his game. My goodness,

(37:47):
but she has definitely shown the toughnessEllison Whisman. You know that she
is the most experienced Colonel Crawford basketballplayer. She's also a tremendous softball player
for the Eagle, short stop andleadoff hit her. His first free throw
goes for Alison Whiteman led the intentand stolen bases this past season and also

(38:13):
led the in ten and most runsscored, so she's a fast athlete.
It's a second free throw Wifeman.She's got five points and gives Colonel Crawford
a two point lead back for theCarrie Blue Devils down eighteen to sixteen fills
with her at the left point,guarded by Hold Hold. The ball above

(38:36):
her head passed down low, deflectedby Deray. Stays with Carrie, and
that's one of the real strong attributesof elected Deray. She doesn't allow for
a lot of easy passes, keepsher arms extended, patrols the lanes so
baseline then bound Ryan Hard up Hieto Yosa. She just got hit in
the face accidentally by Lene mckippen.Oh, and Yos she is hurting.

(39:04):
She might need a moment there.We are just one of those unfortunate accidental
plays. But Yost here should begoing out with the games no shooting situation,
so she easily can be replaced hereby Emily Broddman. That's what happens.

(39:24):
But the trainer, Ellie Smith,is tending to Yos. Hope she
is okay. So it is carrya basketball right hard with it a high
carded Pie Rawson off a double teamup to row and a travel called on
Raley Rowl. That defense came upthere from Whiteman, so it leaves one

(39:52):
for two to go. In thissecond quarter, Colonel Crawford with the ball
leading at eighteen to sixteen. Deraywith it in the back court, walks
the dribble into the front court again, trou to the right side to hold
on the Sacan heads to Laane callfor it off of the fowl. He
made the shot, but wave itoff. Emily Brodman holding her position and

(40:15):
drawing the charge. So mirro Holmepicking up her second personal, so Lyla
Plisk comes on for Colonel Crawford toreplace the Mira Holt. Lylah played a

(40:39):
lot in the JV game, butshe's pressed in the varsity service here with
holding some foul trouble. They carrywith the ball down two one twenty to
go until halftime. Right her withthe dribble stumbles and they call a tripping
fowl on Alison Whiteman, and Wifetonis pleading her case. She is frustrated
and Raston actually puts her arms aroundher trying to calm her down. Second

(41:04):
personal on Wieman, and it does. Put Rachel Reinhart to the freethrole line
for Carrie and the first free throwgoes for right Hart. And we were
talking to her a week ago.She was talking about how the coaching SAFF

(41:27):
does a great job of I thinkthe players know what to expect from the
opposition as she hits the second freethrow to tie the game, and yeah,
they knew what they were going toget from Colonel Crawford and saying the
other directions. We get a thirtysecond time out called by Keith O'Flaherty and
Carrie late in this second quarter,a couple of tremendous basketball teams. We

(41:52):
are witnessing the tough defense. Andthat's how you get these types of records,
with Colonel Crawford at fifteen and one, Carrie at fourteen and two,
playing for first place this afternoon,Carry hoping to win the rematch. Last

(42:14):
season, that's how it was theysplit their meetings. Colonel Crawford won by
home by a single point last seasonthirty two to thirty one. Carry won
the rematch here in Blue Dover Countryby a single point thirty six thirty five.
This has just been a great rivalryfor many years between these two programs
and these two schools actually in multiplesports, and it looks like they are

(42:38):
going to allow for the substitution.Lexleie Rush returns to the bench for Crawford,
replaced by Robin Amon so Colonel Crawford, with the ball score tight at
eighteen one, eighteen to go untilhalftime, Deray in the backcourt gets a
pressure defense from raw passes ahead toRoston across the timeline met here by Clinger.

(43:01):
Roston keeps the dribble alive as wehad toured the final minutes of this
first half on the mid court logos, Roston bounced pass to lept point to
Deray, looking around dribbles at once, passing the right side to Roston.
Clinger comes up on her. Rostonunder dribbled drive throws up in the right
hand its course Gabby Rawson, givingColonel Coffer at a two point lead is

(43:22):
twenty to eighty carry with the balldown two with forty four seconds remaining until
halftime, Reinhart to left point,Clinger down low to Row into the body
of Deray, pass up high toright hard. It's Roston on her,
giving her a little bit of roomthis time. That's why cleaner release three
front hour no and off the bouncerebound taking Roston for Colonel Coffer and the

(43:47):
reaching foul ap peers from Memony Bradmanseem to two personals on the five to
nine sophomore Brondsmanton. All right,So Gabby Rostin at the free throw line

(44:07):
where Colonel Crawford. First one goesthrough for Roston, shooting at forty five
percent from the line this season.Charlene Sender, with her first appearance along
with Lyla pleisach for Colonel Crawford,replacing Alison Weisman, had to Miro Holt
As we get the second free throwfor Roston, trying to make it a
two possession game, and it doesnot go so still twenty one to eighteen.

(44:31):
Colonel Crawford carry with the ball eighteenseconds left until halftime. You know
they'd want to three to tie.Here comes Clinger, it's up and misses
it there and trying to safe itunderneath Broadman, and it winds up with
Sender for Colonel Crawford gets out toRoston and the blucking fowl on Clinger.

(44:54):
All right, So second personal onElla Clinger at the five team foul march.
So we got free throws coming uphere for Bill teams the remainder,
but only six seconds left until halftime, so we can't be Roston a free
throw. She makes that one.She's up to six points in a two

(45:19):
possession lead for Colonel Crawford, secondfree throw make it seven for Roston twenty
two to eighteen. Had a threeclinger side our no open the rebound Phillips
And now we'll do it for thefirst half of play that battle back and
forth, but it is Colonel Crawfordgoing into the break with the lead.

(45:46):
We'll take a break. Get youready for our Read Insurance Agency half time
show. Of course, we havesome first half stats, look at some
scores around the conference. Get youready for the second half as well.
At the half on our score board, it is Colonel Crawford twenty three and
Carrie at to Matthews Honaker Girl Highschoo Basketball Game of the Week, I'm

(46:09):
Magic ninety five to nine and dieHeart Radio High School Basketball Magic ninety five
nine. So glad you're with usfor our reading ture. It takes the
halftime show. At the half,it is visiting Colonel Crawford leading at Carrie

(46:29):
twenty three to eighteen. So we'lllook at some of the scoring from this
game. The one who's emerged asa leading scorer in this one for Colonel
Crawford, Gabby Rosston, was sevenpoints five points for Lexi Rush, five
points for Allison Weisman, three pointsfor Mirror Holt, and two points for

(46:51):
Lynney mckibbon. As for the CarrieBlue Devils, we've got five points for
Kelsey Bursby, four points for RileyRow, four points for Riley Yos,
three points for Ella Klinger, twopoints for Rachel Reinhart, Riley Jos.
She's the one thinking about I've beenhere, you know, just an accidental

(47:13):
play. She sustained contact to theface as mckimmon came up trying to go
for the ball, and yeah,just totally accidental thing, but yeah,
it goes clearly was hurt by thatand went off to the side. I
was working with the trainer, EllieSmith, so don't have any word on

(47:35):
her status as of now, butwe're definitely going to be watching for that.
They certainly want to have their startingpoint guard out in this game against
the Eagles. We'll take a littlebreak here, we'll look for some of
the other scores happening around the endten. But again for our game at
the half, it is Colonel Crawfordleading and Carrie twenty three to eighteen.

(47:58):
As a Reinsurance Agency halftime show continues, Amantic ninety five to nine and Dieheart
Radio getting ready for the second halfof play here a metic ninety five to
nine. The Colonel crawfordy goals witha twenty three to eighteen leads on the
carry balloon, deevils, it lookslike we do have one final that is

(48:19):
in Seneca East defeating Buckeye Central fortyfour to thirty one. Other games halftime
scores up for Sandusky with a twentyeight thirteen halftime lead at Mohawk and uh,
looks like you Cyrus leading Winford atthe half twenty nine to twenty six.

(48:51):
Time to get things going back againfor these two teams, and it
is hard trying to compete for achampionship. Either team can claim the championship
from this game, but the winnerwill be in excellent shape in this battle
of the top two teams and theconference at least a good shape to control

(49:16):
their own path to the title.So the Colonel Crawford Eagles, they're bringing
aw Allison Wife then Remaane m Kimmon, Mirro Holt, Lexi Rush and Gabby
rosson the same starters that they hadat the beginning of the game. Carrie's
got Kelsey bursby Rachel Reinhardt. Sheis starting the second because Riley Yost is

(49:37):
not out there Riley Row, HellaClinger, and Kenley Phillips. So that's
starting to answer a little bit ofwhat we were talking about when she got
hurt in that first half. Solet's see what the Blue Devils can do
without their point guard and immediately turnedthe ball over, but Rout tries to
get it back, gets her handsin there to draw a tie up with
the arrow. It does go toColonel, but excellent effort right there for

(50:01):
Riley Row to get the euro backfor her team. On the next high
up situation. All right, soHold to win bound the ball at the
baseline inside to Gabby Rustin, whobrings the call across the timeline, met
defensively by Clinger, crosses over tothe left hand m Kimvin calls for it
at the high left side, guardedby Row him it heads over to the

(50:23):
right point to the top two Ruston. Still in the first minutes of the
third Quarner Ruston on the penetration inthe left corner, Rusts four three and
Lexi shot off target and a reboundunderneath for a Clinger carry ball and gets
it down to Reinhardt. So RachelReinhardt is stepping up as the point guard
now for the Blue Devils. Itdoes some point guard, but it's mostly

(50:45):
Yost. I'm not sure if Yostwill be able to come back later in
the game, but she's not inright now. Has the ball deflected and
stolen by mckibbon. So Colonel Crawfordgets the ball back and on the drive
to arrest blood By, Birsby unholds attempt there underneath. So Kelsey Bersby,

(51:07):
You'm gonna get down low to rowand and now the balance at the
baseline, they'll turnover for number tenfor carry. There's still no points scored
in this third quarter, same halftimescore twenty three to eighteen. Colonel Crawford

(51:28):
with the lead and ball rest forthe pass all deflected by Clinger Rossa gets
her hands on it and they maybe able to claim possession and called the
timeout. Yeah, so thirty secondtimeout called by Colonel Crawford. So still

(51:53):
a lot of game left here,yees. So Colonel Crawford, let's use
up a couple of times mounts andwow, Rellios has just checked that the
scores test it appears she is aboutto play and how important is that for

(52:15):
this carry te She is indeed backon the floor with Bersby, Ral,
Ryan Hart and Phillips, So shereplaces Clinger here so sideline in bound for
a hold for Colonel Crawford and pieto Rawson up top, guarded by Ryan

(52:36):

left side to hold off the ball. Fak crosses over headswords the baseline fighting
against two blue devils out to rushagainst Ral. Ball deflected but winds up
with mckimmen to the right side toRawson working to dribble. Series of crossovers
left point to mckimmen. We hadtoward the six minute mark of the third

(53:00):
mckimben right block ducks in right handor too strong rebound pulled out by Bersby.
It is carry ball left to rightand the point guard Yost is back
on the floor and working the controls, guarded by mckkippen to the right point
to Ryan Hard. See if thecarry offense starts picking up things a little
bit. It's always tough against theseeagles. Defensively screen set by Rowls continue

(53:22):
to dribble ryin Hart to left pointto the top two Yoss. There's McKibben
on her tough match up here andto the right side to Bersby Alice Witch.
It's just mckimben gets back on toher help defense from Rush to the
right points to Yost again. Downtwenty three to eighteen with five twenty five
to go in the third quarter ofthis first place game. At the end

(53:44):
ten right sign to Bersby. Weismanhands Wine on her down to Row over
to Yo shot left block too Strong, gets it back, puts it up
d in so Riley Yos is ableto get the hoop, pulls carry to
within a possession. It's twenty threetwo twenty. Colonel Crawford ball Is holds

(54:08):
looking to bring the ball up herself, this time around the screen from Roston
regular point guard to the right point. Two Rush pulls back with the dribble
a little spin moved to a doubleteam lost at two yos. A ghost
who averages two steals per game,pushes it ahead to right Hard finds the
hunter raw off the glass, popluseand we sign rebound for Holts. It's

(54:30):
Colonel Crawford ball up by three withfour and a half to go in this
third quarter that's affected by Bersby triesto complete the steal. McKinnon gets to
it, though four Colonel Crawford upto Holt to live point to Rossen is
guarded by right Hard Rouston on thedribble drive. The health defense come from
Rawn. She's called for to reachin so Riley Rowl second personal for her.

(54:57):
Carrie's first foul off this number twothird quarter, So Gappy Rostin at
the free throw line before the Eaglesand the first free throw is cool for
Roston leading the way with eight points. This Alexei Deray is on for Colonel
Crawford to replace Alexi roj and EmilyBronman coming in for Carrie. This Kenley

(55:20):
Phillips will get the seat. Onemore free throw for Roston. It's up
and she gives her teammate five pointlead. She's got nine points, says
Gappy Rosten. So Carrie with theball trailer get twenty five to twenty with
four thirty to go in this thirdquarter. I was passed down low Brodman

(55:45):
Leah, but underneath goes Simily Brodmanwith the hoop pulling Carrie to it.
In three her first bucket, soDeray with the dribble right to left for
Crawford reaching in Broadman and then thepast deflected and a kick by Yos.
So it does stay with Colonel Crawfordis he will have a baseline imbound.

(56:08):
See who's the inbounder? Are goingto be? Oh, it's Miro Holt
out to Deray to the top toWhifeman holds the ball above her head to
the left point to mckimmon working onRaw to the right point to hold heads
towards the baseline off. A doubleteam goes a cross court to Rustin out
to Deray three left side, Carrolsolweak side rebound for Ronnie Yos pushing it

(56:34):
up for the Blue Devils at theBursby need to get into the post to
Row falls down but is able toget it up to Yos right side to
Ryan Hard into Raw and a blockingfowl where Colonel Crawford Yeah, it is
on Alison Weisman, who continued tohold her hands up in beginning. She

(56:54):
thought that was clean. Alexei Rushcoming in and as Weisman returning to the
Crawford bench, so carry Paul downtwenty five twenty two three twenty two to
go in the third on the inboundswhistle a push, and that's on Gabby

(57:16):
Rosten for Colonel Kaffer. The firstpersonal on Rosten, so Ryan Hard on
the inbound for carry even the baselineout to Row. Ride back to Ryan
Hard drives in towards the bid postcut off by Roston. You do you
some help, but she's off todribble and feeds it back up to Row.
It's Deray on her. Three twelveto go in the third quarter back

(57:37):
up high two yos loadsable round thescreen, sent by a rout to the
right side. Ryan Hart finds acutter Ral for the layup nice cut by
a Row, getting the layup nicefined by Ryan Hart, and then Ral
tries against the steal with's carry withinone and there's contact on that pass attempt.
They've tagged for that. It's onKelsey Birsby for Carrie. All right,

(58:02):
so Birsby with her third personal forCarrie, says Kenley phillips back onto
the floor for the Blue Devil's replacingpersby the kibenwin bound on the sideline a
pie to rush with a few dribblesaround the screen by Hope, but Phillips
was able to stay with her.Hope receives a little left point, given

(58:24):
room defensively by Broadman. Ope betweenthe rings driples right side. Here comes
to three for a hold and it'scoals a Miro hold. She's got fantastic
range. Gives Colonel Crawford at twentyeight to twenty four leads six points for
a hold. Yoss the left sideto her right heart on the screen from

(58:45):
raw a pie to Yeos guarded byKimmon the left side to Phillips. It
is holds on her to the toptwo row with an angle, pwn tripple
and call for a travel. Allright, so here we go right back

(59:08):
to Colonel Crawford. You get twentyeight to twenty four with two nineteen to
go in the third inbound all miscommunicationtrying to get to raston and hold.
She decides to touch that ball toprevent carry again. I think that's ruling.
Yeah, yeah, she's the firstsession so that that's not allowed.

(59:34):
So it does get the ball backto carry, but she didn't want to
let carry to get an open opportunity. So good decision right there. So
Carrie Blue Devils with the ball downtwenty eight twenty four to twelve to go
in the third right hard to liftcorner to Row, puts down to dribble
up to the foul line, extendto the top to Ryan Hart and falling
down his phillips. Oh wow,little shove right there her against Gabby Robston.

(01:00:00):
Third so second personal on Austin.Three team fouls come across the third
quarter, car with the ball downby four, working around the perimeter,
Ryan Hard inside to Roun. Yeah, that's the foul from behind by Alexei
Rush. So Rush is the formerGallian Tiger. She has been playing hard

(01:00:25):
and physical, but she's got tocome out of the game with her five
fouls. Replace of her five pointsand three fouls, replaced by Robin Emon,
the freshman Robin Aiman, I shouldsay, pardon me. The win
bound for Carrie. It's Phillips drivesin left side whistle. What's the call?
All looks as I get n Carrie'sRiley Row moving screen. All right,

(01:00:55):
so three personals on raw that's certainlysomething to watch for in this one.
So Lexi Durray bringing it up forColonel Crawford. It is up to
left point to holt into the lane. Is a mirror. It's a double
team right side to mckimbon as apie looking on. Raw takes it to
the right wing out to Holt.He's dangerous there at a baseline up to

(01:01:16):
mckimbon. Three is up in andout off the rebound. Amen follow goals.
Amen. He gives Colonel Crawford thethirty to twenty four leave back for
Carrie with one twenty two to go. In the third, Phillips inside out

there's a deflection that Rodman puts itup left baseline too strong and ball
deflected out of bounds appear to beby mckimbon. Thissials didn't see it that
way. It is Colonel crawfor goalgoal, so we goes with it leading

(01:02:05):
in thirty to twenty four long endbountd two Aiman they can to bring it
across the timeline and does against thehelp defense from Phillips, and that's inflected
there diving forward Broadman hasn't for carryand then a dribbled ahead to Yo's download

this game. The league score forthe carry Blue Devils finally on the board

(01:02:29):

to carry possession. Must have calleda travel there right well, it is

(01:02:57):
a carry ball opportunity to get closer. Trailing by four. Brought him on

(01:04:04):
is still the same squarter we headedthe end of three thirty to twenty six
if of Colonel Crawford, but KintleyPhillips here at the line for Carrie trying
to pull the Blue Devils to withintwo. She could make a pair.
First free throw is good for Phillips. Allison Weisman back in for Colonel Crawford
replacing Robin Amon, and Phillips thePoller team to within two. It releases

(01:04:34):
with the left hand and off thelid and skying for the rebound mire a
hole nicely done, but reaching into berth we tried to get to steal
and Clinger tried to collect it butcould not hold on as Colonel Crawford isabel
to get the ball back ray quicklyto the front corner of the blocking vowl
on Kintley Phillips. So second personalon Phillips second verse firstine vowel four Carrie

in this fourth quarter, all right, so it is hold tony in pounds
for the Eagles into the back cordto Raston, low crossover, dribbles head
toward the lane out to mckimmon tothe left corner home things on the three
puts that one from going to thetop to the ray. A little jam
step guarded to here by Brodman callingfor it is Woston has the ball to

the top of the key heads andturn the lane, puts up in the
left hand score and is pound yappyrawten with a huge play for the point

Score thirty two twenty seven Crawford.All right here it is Roston an opportunity

(01:06:11):
to pull her team up by six, and she's got it. Twelve points

Rawston falling around here by Ryan Hart, screen set by hold. Roston goes

too strong weak side rebound for Yocarry ball left to right. We're within
a possession, could tie it ifthey so desire. For three. Robin

(01:06:55):
Finks on the three goes to theright side Ryan Hart a dangerous three point

the drive down Loan and kicks outleft side. Brodman doesn't take the threes,
take goesside to Phillips left tender itcon Kenley Phillips pulling Carrie two within
one five points four Phillips. It'sthirty three thirty two, So it was

(01:07:21):
a full time out. Yeah,we will just keep it here in this
situation, the game that we've gotgoing on, and certainly the stakes of
this contest, Wow, two teamsjust gutting it out. They know what
is at stake, and a lotof players who weren't really in these situations

(01:07:44):
last season stepping up. Thinking aboutColonel Crawford lost a really valuable senior from
last year. In the veteran starterss Mallory, Plea, sac Kerry,
I mean, gosh, they sustaineda lot more lost as though the graduation
Julia Brodman, Hannah Ritter, MacyWintling, Lexi Plott, Megan little John.

(01:08:13):
Of course, four year versus memberEddie Stewart, the team's leading score.
The coach of Claerty noted that hehas gonna need young players to step
up this season, especially for theperimeter shooting. Has Rachel Reinhard's really been
the one to step up for themost part this season, with some help
from Klinger and obviously yo see sheknocked down a big three moments ago.

(01:08:35):
So here we are Colonel Crawford withthe ball lead down to one thirty three,
thirty two, five, eighteen togo. In the fourth, Lexi
Dray collops up with the triple four. The Eagles stops over to the left
side to Rustin in the triple thread. Ryan Hard creeping up defensively left point

(01:08:55):
to Deray the side. Wiseman threeis up in the air that was too
strong. Weeks our rebound for ryanHart giving it up two years and Riley
bounced past into Phillips into the bodyfor holding. Then a tie up calls
Deray got her hands in their nicelydone for Alexi Dray and with the possession
Arrow gives the ball back to ColonelCrawford. Full corp rests again set up

(01:09:21):
for a Carrie Eagles with the ballto Deray from Holt. The Deray she
has multiple times just brought the ballup herself. She does it again and
just keeps on going into lane,puts I'm a shot and deflect it out
there, should stay with Crawford.It does good defense. Riley raw for
the Blue Temples as Crawford. Key'spossessing the ball with four point forty one

(01:09:45):
to get one in the fourth,then leading at thirty three thirty two in
bout right side to m Hippen apie to Holt one dribble and stops,
bounces the right side to Rustin.Ryan Hart's on her. Ruston with the
dribbles to the top of the Keytaps her head. They call the play
screen set by McKibben. Left side. Ruston goes around and help defense comes
from Phillips in the top to mckibbonright back to Roston in three point.

(01:10:06):
Land doesn't take the shot. Youcan get up to Deray heads towards the
baseline against Raul Whistle and Lexi Dayto shoot too, so fourth personal on
Riley raw Wow. So she's gotfour Chelsey burgsby with four for Carrie.

(01:10:29):
So that foul trouble something definitely aconcern for Carrie. As we've got to
ay here at the free throw line, chose free throw does not go for
Alexi. She's another one of thosecross country runners has a tuple couple of
inten championships as a number of across country team. Jordan stud head coach.

(01:10:50):
He's an excellent coach from that sport. Is Deray gets that second free
throw, so one of two onthat trip, she's got two points thirty
four thirty two. Colonel Crawford Carrywith the ball on the drive yield for
the layup left side balls batted around, winds up with Roston and then we
get another tie up or Noah foulcalled. Had it been a tie up,

(01:11:12):
Carry would have had the ball insteadof his right hard called for the
foul or reach in on Rachel RyanHart her first personal and four team fouls
on carry in this fourth quarters,still plenty of time left Colonel Crawford with
the ball leading at thirty four tothirty two whistle. And what happened here

(01:11:34):
before the inbound wow they called itfoul and Lexi day before the inbound so
that gives the ball back to carry. So Reinhard looking to inbounded for the
Blue Devils up high and then deflectedby Weisman, but it winds up with
Reinhart in the lane out to Ralphfakes on the three. Good defense here

(01:11:57):
for Colonel Crawford and a shot upthere and Ryan Hart doesn't go a ball
loosen the lane. The Ray triesto snack it out of there and gets
it up to mckimmon for Colonel Crawford, trying to add to a two point
lead with three forty eight to goon the fourth it's Roston with it up
Hie for the Eagles, right sideto Deray in the triple thread goes sound

(01:12:18):
the triple Deray inside gallops in loosesthe handle. This all when did they
get the timeout? I do thinkso? Colonel Crawford calls from the timeouts,
so they're down to two timeouts remaining. It's a thirty the second timeout

(01:12:40):
charge to the Eagles. Just lookingat scoring in this game is Gabby Roston
leading the way for Colonel Crawford twelvepoints, six points for Mira Hold,

(01:13:01):
five for Alison Whiteman, five forLexi Rush, two for Robin Amon,
two for Lenae mckimmon, and twofor Lexi Deray. Carrie Blue Deevils led
by Rally Yes with her nine points, six points for Riley Row, five

(01:13:26):
for Kelsey Persby three Ella Clinger toRachel Reinhart to Emily Brodman, Oh yeah,
don't want to get five points forKenley Phillips. Yes, she didn't
score in the first half, butuh stepping up in the second half.

(01:13:46):
There's lots of time still in thisgame, and we still have nineteen seconds
left of their time out, butthe players have already returned to the floor,
so they just want to get thisthing going. And I love,
by the way, the yellow uniformsfor Colonel Crawford. Only team in the
area that I know off that wearsyellow. The other JV they're in the

(01:14:10):
black. Their boys team wears blackand previous seasons they were black, so
this is the first season that they'rewearing these right yellow uniforms. They really
stand out. And what a seasonthese Eagles have had. And they lead
at thirty four to thirty two atcarry with three twenty four to go on
the fourth a pie to make kibbenon a dribble drive right side, cut
off by Phillips looking around for help. Ducks in lay up coals for the

(01:14:34):
name McKibben. Second hoop for lanna thirty six thirty two Colonel o'crowfory carry
ball three minutes left in the fourththe right side to Ryan Hart. A
pie to yeo so holds them ballabove her head, now to our waist
and feeding down low into row.Help defense comes from Whiteman Deray, the

(01:14:58):
initial defender A pie two Phillips ballpoked away by Raston, still trying to
get on top of it. Lookslike we may have a tie up and
with the possession arrow that carry bluedevils do retain. Were two forty five
to get on the fourth and downby four. This is a possession that
Carrie really could use. A hoopflyin Hart with it on the baseline Alpie

(01:15:23):
to Yoss Cardi Pie mckimmon to theright point two Bronman the series of the
crossovers left side and to Ryan Hartworking around here left side to rally Rowel
off the screen from Phillips, Rowldown low to Bromins then stealing it.
There is rostin Gabby Rossi just gother hands in there and took it away.

(01:15:45):
It's Colonel Crawford ball Head to Lexid Ray to the top of the
key, falling around by Rowl tothe right point to hold off a drive
mirror hole two borsdl. It isthirty eight thirty two Colonel Crawford eight points
for hold down into Phillips at themid post, slithers in layup goes for

(01:16:06):
Kintley Phillips a needed who pulling carryback to within four but two minutes ago
into fourth thirty second time out sevenpoints for Kinley Phillips. This is the

(01:16:26):
most important impactful game in the endten. But we'll see if there are
any other scores nonetheless that we canfind. Yeah, it's a final between
Winford and b Cyrus, and Bucyruspulls it off, winning it. My
final score of fifty to forty nineWow, that was quite a game.

(01:16:55):
Number Sandusky gets the victory O fromOhawk forty two to twenty six, and
as we reported earlier, Ye SenecEast with the win over Buckeye Central.
All right, two minutes left herefor our game. Colonel Crawford with the
ball leading get thirty eight to thirtyfour, and Carrie trying to complete a

(01:17:16):
regular season sweep, dray to theright point to hold. It's Bursby on
her Bersby's gotta be careful with thefoul troub whle Birsby falls down pass whole
left side ball deflected. Oh,there's a little bit of contact there a
no call Bolt that's out of thebound stage with Colonel Crawford. All right,
so hold to inbounded with one thirtyeight to go in the fourth right

(01:17:39):
right the scores desk and bounding tomc kimmen at the left point surrounded by
blue temples, hands it off toHolds and it looks like Colonel Crawford they're
going to try to work some clockettpossible. They've got maultable blue devils and

(01:18:00):
foul troubles, so they gotta becarred. A boy who commits a foul
it was coming up trying to helphere in the right corner. Dray just
lost it out of bounds at theright corner. Well, that may be
the help that carry needs. Again, both these teams play such strong defense.

(01:18:21):
Got it up to nine turnovers forColonel Crawford with the average I left
side three is a broad man.Oh this isn't all there As rastin comes
to the rebounds for Colonel Crawford,as the brow gets right over the face
screens set there by deray of thepast whistle. Well, they called a

(01:18:41):
foul. So second person want toracheld Ryan hard for they carry blue devils
for so it is five fouls oncarry in this fourth quarters. So as
we've been talking about this season withthe rules and Floyd and his free throws,

(01:19:04):
there rested away, so Rosted atthe line, Gebby is able to
put through the first one. Lebby. Ruston is up to thirteen points to
lead the way a more free throw. She's got that one as well.
Fourteen for Rosten. A forty tothirty four lead for Colonel Crawford. Carrie

(01:19:25):
ball firstby inside with the left hander. It's gone strong move b Bersby.
There was some contact in there aswell, not enough to draw foul call.
But Kelsey Bersby she has seven pointsand pulls Carrie too within four.
This is exactly where we talk aboutwith both of these teams, neither team

(01:19:49):
giving up lots of fight both waysaround. Yeah, Carrie desperately he wants
to get this game because if theydo, Phil resume control of their own
path to the end ten title.Colonel Crawford wants to do the same.

(01:20:16):
Yeah. In that scenario, ifthey both went out, then they would
set up our first shared inten titlewin basketball. This is the tenth season
for the N ten. We've neverhad a shared championship in varsity basketball on
either the boy side or the girlsside. So they've had shared championships in
other sports, but not in basketball. Maybe this is the year would be

(01:20:43):
more likely for that. If Carrieis the victor in this contest, all
right, coming out of the timeout, he Kelsey Bursby, Riley row,
Riley Yostimley Broadman, and Rachel RyanHart for Kerry. Colonel Crawford has
the ball, miraor Holt, Lexi, dray Be Roston, Alison Wieman and
the name of Kimbon to win boundinginto Duray ball out of bounds off of

(01:21:05):
Carrie Stays with Crawford with fifty twoseconds remaining hitting this fourth quarter and Colonel
Crawford leading to get forty to thirtysix. Nothing is guaranteed even an inbound,
so they get into McKibben and shegets surrounded by the Blue Devil.
She's got to get across the timeline. No falls down and the Steven goes

(01:21:25):
on down low whistle. Crawford ableto get the time out to preserve the
possession. Oh, Colonel Crawford downto one time out for forty five seconds
to go in this fourth quarter.Hey, Gabby Roston, she's been really

(01:21:49):
impressive in this game. In thegame versus Carry in December, she had
five, well this time around fourteenin some game to turn around like that,
you know. And Lexie Dray shehad twelve in that game versus Carry
and North Robinson and tonight two points. But Deray's defense has been excellent for

(01:22:15):
sure. That's how these Eagles play. All. Let us see forty to

(01:22:41):
thirty six. Colonel Crawford with thelead, forty five seconds to go into
fourth Eagles with the pall hold towin bound in baseline in the back court,
goes up high, deflected by rawstolen by Broad but Carries got it
in the rail went from the powersup right handed the goal. Carries within
two and would get a whistle andwe may have a warning. Carrie going

(01:23:04):
over the line defensively bursby apsolutely geta warning there. Yep, that's exactly
what it is. With thirty sevenseconds left, it's Colonel Crawford forty Carrie
thirty eight. You got eagles.Oh the pressure is on the Eagles,

(01:23:26):
even though they're up, they're fallingdown there hard. Oh. She throws
the ball at the back of thebackboard. A rare misqueue there for Lennay.
Oh my goodness, Wow, thatgives the ball right back to Carrie.
That's exactly what the Blue Devils needed. Down by two with thirty six
point nine seconds they bound it uphigh two yosts, they don't need three.

(01:23:50):
They get it inside to Rout,takes it up over Dray, shot
doesn't go. Ball tapped round outto Bradman. Twenty six seconds left,
still down by two. Is Carrieworking around and right hard in a lane
too strong Moll inflected around m ckimponwinds up with it a tie up.
I looks like unless it's a foul, unless you travel Carrie wants to trample,

(01:24:12):
they call it tie up. Shedid fall with the ball, but
the officials did not believe she hadpossession of it until perhaps she hit the
floor, and then Carrie got thehands in the air for the tie up.
So Colonel Crawford's got it back.Carry got a couple of opportunities there,
Eagles with it, leading itet Fordinto thirty eight. Honey abounds that

(01:24:32):
one's going away, but he windsup with to Ray and then we get
a whistle and it looks like weget a reach in foul. Yeah,
that is Ryan Hard third personal onRyan Hart wen't like it. So Colonel

(01:24:53):
Crawford's shooting the rest of the wayanyway. So Lexi Terray not the free
tow line for Colonel Crawford. Freethrows up. It's good for Terray three
point lead now trying to give herteam a two possession edge. This would

(01:25:15):
be huge. It's up, It'sgood Lexi Terray forty two thirty eight lead
on eleven seconds left. Carry withthe ball up high, Ralph for three
up the front of the rim.Boss loose time, winding out pass up
high long two Ralph skims, thenet does not the bounds of the baseline,
and it is over. The ColonelCrawford Eagles hold on and they win

(01:25:41):
it by a final score of fortytwo to thirty eight, and as a
result, Colonel Crawford has a oneand a half game lead, uncarry in
the standings and controlling their own pathfor their first in ten championship in varsity
girls basketball. But if they slip, Carrie is right behind. So we

(01:26:06):
shall see. This race is notover, but the game is and the
Eagles definitely got it done in areally tough defensive battle. It was hard.
All right, Well, we'll stepaway and we'll you're ready for our

(01:26:27):
post game talk about this game andagain the implications for the conference crown.
But again it is say final,Colonel Crawford forty two, Kerry thirty eight.
It's our Matthews Hot Acer gros HighSchool basketball game of the week.
I'm Attic ninety five to nine andDieheart Radio. All right, yeah with
Gabby Rosston after the victory for ColonelCrawford today leading away with the fourteen points,

(01:26:56):
so so very well done, GabbyObviously you're point guard and generally you're
a setup person, but you reallygot aggressive scoring the ball in this game.
Uh, just what are your thoughtsabout where that came from and how
you were able to have that typeof success against a tough carry team.
Obviously, Well, like my teammatesdo a really good job of spacing out

(01:27:17):
and if they're gonna get up intous, coach says, you drive the
ball. So when they're up intome, I'm just gonna drive the ball.
Yeah, you drove it. Youscored it, and and getting it
done at the free throw line aswell. So yeah, again with Gabby
Rosten after the victory for Colonel Crawfordat home in December, you're able to

(01:27:39):
get that win by five today byfour, and in this tough environment,
what was really behind making sure thatyou were able to finish things off in
the right way against the Blue Devils. In practice we were this last two
days. We were super super hard, staying focused the whole practice and not
like lagging off at the end.So I think that really helped us today

(01:27:59):
at the end of the game.Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
And yeah, obviously you know,we see you've got the track and
field. Sure, do we knowof many of your accolades and track and
field and in cross country? Howdoes some of that sort of help you
stay in shape for a game likethis because you're playing most of the game.
Yeah, it really just helped myendurance to make sure that I can

(01:28:20):
talk and make sure my team isthere okay during the whole game. Right
on again with Gabby Rosston. You'resixteen and one, which is truly a
remarkable record, actually matched Colonel Crawford'swin total from one season ago. The
Eagles were sixteen and seven last year. When you started this season, were

(01:28:40):
you expecting things to go this well? Is this kind of the picture that
you had for the team. Wehave very big expectations and we want to
hit all of our goals that weset at the beginning of the year.
So looking into this season, wehad goals and we're just trying to get
them all right now, no doubtabout it. You know, obviously you're
a junior. When you started yourCareerfinner was the head coach. You're sort

(01:29:02):
of sparing and your playing time ofvarsity back then. That then obviously a
transition. She retires, Zach Bauertakes over but then this year, you
know his system, you know alot of what he is about. How
important has that familiarity with the bowerWay helped? With Colonel Crawford having yes
sixteen and one that is truly incredible. We just became more comfortable with him

(01:29:25):
and we ask more questions this yearso we understand like what he wants from
us instead of always being like questionedabout it last year. Right, Yeah,
that certainly makes a lot of sense. There you go, And so
a game and a half up onCarrie for conference that contests left. Obviously,
we know you take a game togame, but just how do you
manage the pressure of this final stretchof the inten Race when you know that

(01:29:46):
Carrie's still going to be nipping atyour heels. We're just gonna have to
focus every day in practice and makesure that we're only focusing on the game
ahead of us. All right,So one last one for you along those
lines, Gabby Uh with the intenRace, we know it's front center,
but your next game just happens tobe out of conference based on what I'm
seeing from your schedule. Wednesday,you host Loudonville of the Mid Buckeye Conference.

(01:30:09):
How do you use that game tohelp you as you finish off your
inten race. We're gonna take thatgame as like a tournament aspect, like
we're just gonna play and try togive them our best name and have fun
while we're doing it. All right, it certainly looks like you're having a
great time out there. I playingfor Colonel Crawford. So congratulations a Gabby,
are well done, and we'll seeyou for somepot games, all right,

(01:30:32):
thanks so much? Yeah, allright, yeah, we'll see you,
Gabby. You're Austin. Yes,you clearly got it done on the
offensive end for Colonel Crawford today,fourteen points to lead everyone in this contest.
So yeah, they're having a goodtime and surely makes sense based on

(01:30:54):
what we are seeing. So ColonelCrawford prooving to sixteen and one, remaining
in first place in the inn ten, Carrie falling to fourteen and three,
and if for some reason Colonel Crawfordstumbles, Carrie knows that there's still an
opportunity ahead to get perhaps even ashare of this Inten championship. Colonel Crawford's

(01:31:15):
next game Wednesday, as we notedat home versus Loudonville of the Mid Buckeye
Conference. Carrie's next game Friday versusBuckeye Central, and we're planning on being
