The last time the Lena-Winslow Panthers had played against the Pecatonica Indians at the Forreston Tournament, it ended in a one point game. But Saturday in Pecatonica, in their first conference battle, the Indians brought their 'A' game. Most basketball teams make four, five, or six three point baskets over the course of a game. Some of the exceptional ones will make seven or eight. But to put Pecatonica's game into perspective, the Indians made ten three point bombs ... just in the first...

The Scales Mound Hornets held a slim three point lead over the powerful Pecatonica Indians with two minutes left in their third place contest at the MLK Tournament. Desperate to get the ball, but forced to foul, the Indians fouled Hornet senior Charlie Wiegel, who stepped to the line for a one-and-one attempt, but missed the shot. Pecatonica came racing down the floor, but rushed a deep three point attempt as they tried to tie the game up all at once. The ball went long, where Max Wienen...
Last season, during their run to the State finals, the Scales Mound Hornets traveled to DeKalb for the Super Sectional. And after winning their game to punch the ticket to the State finals, they made a connection with the Glenbard West Hilltoppers – a 4A team that also won their Super Sectional game at DeKalb. As fate would have it, both teams were assigned to the same hotel in Champaign, and a friendship was formed between the respective players. The Hilltoppers were there in attendance, c...
The non-conference battle in Dakota between the Indians and Warren Warriors was very much in doubt early in the third quarter as a well executed alley-oop to Reed McNutt was followed by a Brady Stietz layup that had Warren out in front 27-26 with 6:48 to go in the third quarter. But then something happened. Dakota senior, Kade Vock, went into his "zone". "I can't really explain it," Vock said. "When I get into my zone I get so focused it's like my eyes get bigger. I can see the whole floor and...
The gym was packed at River Ridge High School as everyone wanted to see the highly anticipated game between the top team in the state – the undefeated Galena Pirates – and the one team many thought was the only one that had a chance of tripping them up in the NUIC – the RR/SM Wildcats. And while loyal Wildcat fans were hoping the game would be close, nobody was disappointed as the two powerful squads put on a track meet that never seemed to slow down. Both teams were implementing a full court...
Although the Fulton Steamers were loaded with some top talent, the early part of the season was a struggle – leaving them stuck with a 6-6 record – and causing a lot of basketball fans to wonder, "What's wrong?" "I think we were playing timid early in the season," said head coach R.J. Coffey. "We wanted Baylen to do everything. But over the break our role players are starting to step up, and we're running everything through Baylen instead of expecting him to do it all." Damhoff is still a powerf...
One of the factors in Lena-Winslow's loss to Pecatonica in Girls Basketball was that starting point guard, and leading scorer – Tiana Esser – went down with an ankle injury and the jury is still out on whether or not she'll be able to play again this season. So, Thursday night in their conference battle at Pearl City, yes, getting the win was important, but finding someone to step up and fill Esser's role was essential. When the game began, it looked as if both issues might come up negative as...

It's really not too hard to figure out how the Scales Mound Hornets have been so successful this season in spite of graduating all five starters from last season's third place in state team. Turnovers. "That's our game," said head coach Erik Kudronowicz. "We turn opponents over and then turn that into points at the other end." No team is better equipped to do it with seniors Charlie WIegel and Jacob Duerr handling the point guard defensive positions, the two seem to have a sixth sense in regard...
It's been a long time since the Warren Lady Warriors were a force on the basketball court. And while they still may not be among the area elite, they have reached the level of being "dangerous" – capable of knocking off a top tier team that is foolish enough to look past them. (Just ask Morrison) Wednesday night, against their friendly rival Stockton, the Warriors continued to impress – in spite of some sloppy play. On one side of the coin, they were the same Warren team people were fam...
The River Ridge Wildcats are known for their full court pressure defense, but it's not like some high-pressure teams we've seen in the past. "Some teams press and don't care if they give up a layup because all they want to do is speed up the game," said Wildcat head coach Jeremy Knauer. "But we're not a strong offensive team, so we need to get turnovers and transition points. We can't allow the ball into the paint when we're pressing." For thirty minutes, the Stockton Blackhawks handled the...
It was supposed to be an epic showdown – the top two teams in the North, who went into overtime in their first meeting this season, squaring off in their first conference battle. Two television stations showed up to tape it, the only live sports reporter in the region sat his large butt in the corner (camera in hand) and they even had an exhibition where the little elementary girls got to run up and down the floor during halftime. But for some reason, the Orangeville Broncos came armed and r...

A clash of formidable girls basketball powers took place in pool play at the Pearl City holiday tournament as Lena-Winslow took on the Orangeville Broncos. And while the game had all of the lead changes, excellent plays and coaching chess moves you would expect between the two NUIC North powers, in the end it was the mastery of one simple fundamental that allows the Panthers to claim the 36-33 victory. Free throws. One statistic tells a great deal about the whole game. The Panthers were 6 of 8...
An exceptional game needs an exceptional ending to truly make it into the "legendary" status. And Tuesday night's conference battle between East Dubuque and Scales Mound more than met the standard. No other teams in the NUIC West have opened up conference play, but because they were scheduled to play the Friday before they both had two games scheduled in the Pecatonica MLK Tourney, the agreement was made to move the contest to before the Christmas break. Both teams came in with only one loss,...
Lena-Winslow was over-matched, and anybody could see it. In the opening quarter of their non-conference battle at home against the Winnebago Indians, the Panthers turned the ball over more than they actually shot it. Meanwhile, Bago was getting whatever they wanted as they pulled out to a dominant 17-6 lead. "To start the game, they put a lot of pressure on us and we weren't ready for it," said senior Jake Zeal. "So, we put a lot of pressure on them after that, and I think it surprised them."...
