Tomorrow night is a big night for WIAA Boys Basketball as 78 teams hit the court at Neutral Locations around the State. There are many jammed-packed matchups not just in the Milwaukee area but some statewide that could become a movie night.
In my opinion, the most loaded sectional in the State of Wisconsin is Division 3 Sectional #4 with many teams in Division 3 who were ranked in the top 10 of the WisSports coaches poll all year with lots of talent from the Milwaukee Area.
Upsets are bound to happen seeing the #1 Seed the Dominican Knights are already out in that sectional which is crazy to think. But teams like St. Thomas More (#1 Seed in 4B), Carmen Northwest, Milwaukee Academy of Science, and Lake Country Lutheran are all really good and can put up the points with several Division 1 players.
Last Minute Winnings, WIAA Fans “This is March”
Last Saturday, during the WIAA Boys Basketball Regional Final we saw many games come down to the final shot or whistle and some upsets were caused by that.
Freshmen Magic:
On Saturday for the West Allis Central Bulldogs, I call a team of the future that might be moving a little bit ahead of schedule. Last week, they were led by Freshmen Max Jones who had 30 points for them but that was not the cherry he hit a three with less than ten seconds remaining to give the Bulldogs the 61-60 win and the Upset win over Westosha Central.
Bronson Koening 2.0 but WIAA Boys Basketball??
We saw some Magic in Brookfield on Saturday Evening for the Racine Case Eagles. Anthony Bull became a hero and helped Racine Case win in upset fashion over Brookfield Central.
The Game Clock was at 4.0 seconds the ball was inbounded to Anthony Bull and he took a Right-Wing Three and sent the Eagles back to Racine with a WIAA Regional Championship as time expired to add to the SEC Conference Championship season.
