With the end of a long regular season wacky things start to happen, not the least of which is that Uncle Mike stayed up late enough to share this wisdom with us …
Northern Indiana
Bethany Christian 46, Fremont 32
This is not good. A public school should not lose to a private school with a woman’s name unless she is a saint.
Fort Wayne Luers 116, Fort Wayne North 64
Think some people had a certain record in mind? Deshaun Thomas leads Luers with 38 points, meaning he’ll need 35 a game and the Knights to make the 2A finals again to catch Damon.
Monroe Central 109, Southern Wells 100 (OT)
Wow, the NBA All-Star Game broke out in northeast Indiana.
Michigan City 62, Valparaiso 46
There is no logical explanation for this other than the sectional being right around the corner and everybody had to make sure this sectional will, as usual, make no sense.
Wheeler 75, Hobart 47
Remember the good ol’ days when Wheeler was just another small Porter County school that the big boys picked on?
Central Indiana
Columbus East 67, Plainfield 47
On this night, Quakers was an appropriate nickname for Plainfield – they were definitely non-confrontational in this one.
Franklin Central 39, Bedford North Lawrence 36
Rumor has it they had to wake up the official scorer when the game was over.
Lawrence North 59, Terre Haute North 44
Don’t look now, but Jack and the boys are heating it up.
Southport 75, Mooresville 54
That’s two in a row for the Cardinals. It’s not exactly the ’27 Yankees, but they are definitely getting better. (Hey, grandpa! Were you AT the Yanks’ sweep of the Pirates LOL?)
Southern Indiana
Crawford County 50, Paoli 47
Bonus points for anyone who can describe, in less than 50 words, how to get to Crawford County.
Edinburgh 42, Brown County 40
Do you know how good a shot you have to be to bring down an Eagle with a lance?
Shoals 47, Vincennes Rivet 46 (OT)
Shoals is winning entirely too many athletic contests lately. It is throwing off the balance of nature in the hill country.
South Knox 49, Wood Memorial 48
Is it fair to say they “knoxed” on wood? Oh lord, that was bad.
Switzerland County 64, Madison 61
This is a violation of neutrality.
