001good evening ladies and gentlemen we are back here in the orange pit for some high school boys basketball as we have the visitors the greensburg pirates taking on your home to the team the columbus east olympians before we get started i just want to say something as the cheerleaders go out to do their cheers if music is involved we will have to shut our mics off due to copyright issues it's been picking the sound up in our mics and that's why some of the live streams have been taken down from youtube so just to keep these up for people to watch we will turn our mics off but other words zack how are you doing tonight i'm doing good this is our second game today we worked the north boys game this afternoon and second

002game of the day so excited to decide to be working that tonight more excited because it's east basketball but that's that's besides the point so we'll take a look at the greensburg pirates as you can see they're heading back into the locker room with about five and a half minutes here before tip off zach they come in with a very well respected 4-1 record as they started off red-hot with four straight wins and they just lost their last game to fishers but zach just like the columbus olympians we've scored quite a bit of points they by chance i think have scored more they've 89 81 73 85 in the first four games so zach most of these small town schools i i seem to feel like can shoot and they don't miss yeah i think

003i think that's an accurate statement from what i've seen in warm-ups so far they did not really miss that much it's a lot different feel from a small town team compared to what it is here in columbus you know we have two high schools that splits kids and a little bit of a rivalry but greensburg they have the full support of the town behind them and they just have a concept full of kids coming in and out so definitely definitely different type of vibe for a small town school compared to here and one thing they also they only have two seniors listed on their roster and only one of them starts so like most of the games we've called this year for the boys we they've been playing quite a bit of young teams so

004zach with two seniors a very young team so how can that motivate or be a i should say a great thing as a coaching staff and a player on this team well you know senior leadership is always a big thing and like you said they have two two seniors so look to see who they lean on tonight who they seem to lean on their leaders who their closer is and who they look to score score the ball list so it could be an interesting matchup tonight with who who the greensboro pirates decide to lead them going into this evening and i'm looking on the roster height wise i think it's going to be even they really don't have anybody that looked as they were warming up stand it out their tallest guy 6'4 and he

005doesn't even start and he's a freshman all the other guys are six one six two but as i come out here they really nobody stanley sticks out and for us we really don't have that tall player so height wise and stuff like that should be leaning in our advantage let's go over to the columbus east boys basketball team as they picked up their first win of the season wednesday night and zach and i you were there to witness it was a strong four-quarter battered battle i should say by then what was your take on their win on wednesday well you know we usually highlight you know pierce and boyer and murphy is top of these scores but an unexpected i wouldn't want to say unexpected but and but will reekers he stepped up he had

006a really big game he scored 22 points he really helped the olympians you know stretch that lead out and lead them to the first victory of the season so it'll be interesting to see tonight who who takes over that role as the top scorer this evening some stats through their win daniel murphy with seven ben silva with eight and like you mentioned will reekers with 22 jacob pierce with 13 tyler boy with nine as you can see the boys come out now so zach it was a great team effort i heard coach shitty in his raider radio interview i should say mentioning how well-rounded team win that was nobody was really selfish they got it down on the defensive end and offensively so zach i think it's going to take one of those team efforts

007again tonight yes for sure if i read correctly excuse me if i'm wrong but i believe that greensburg is ranked third in the state in 3a so the olympians do have a very uh interesting matchup on their hands tonight yes we should and zach we've known from nba in college one game could be a spark or a momentum booster for us as we're gonna have to travel across town to columbus north and we got some good teams down the schedule so zach how could that win on wednesday be a momentum booster to face some good teams as perry meridian did beat center grove in their last matchup well i think right now as far as games go you just take it a day at a time things could change in a matter of seconds you

008know that you could you could think you'd be playing a game that day and then it get cancelled due to coronavirus so you just take it day by day but luckily the olympians got their first first one of the season hopefully they can carry that on going into this kind of tough stretch here in the next week or two so we did get to witness the columbus north basketball team and we are going across town tuesday i'm just going to take your opinion now what do you think the olympians need to do tuesday night to secure a win and uh quite some time uh for the crosstown rival well first tonight here the olympia's gotta take business care of the greensburg pirates but you know look at i guess we can look ahead we're allowed

009to do that so you know watch them today north a that's a pretty good players you know rhys harmon he's really good ball handler great defender i think the olympians are going to have to box out against the against the bulldogs they have some tall and athletic players with sam king and ding ding so they're gonna have they're gonna have a lot of uh a lot of options of trying to blocks them out and i think they just need to be effective efficiently on uh on the offensive end speaking of athletic players olympians have had their fair share with very athletic players as silver creek we've we've mentioned them and then last their last game julian johnson he was a great all-around player for them so i think the olympians are very familiar with all

010around with athletic i should say players so i'm anxious to see how many points each team is going to put up tonight i think defense is going to be a big key tonight yes for sure so zach let's do your zap report what are some key factors each team needs to do tonight to pull away with the win well it seems like we always say it always but he sees get the ball into the hands of pierce boyer and murphy and have their have the contributors around them help and for the greensboro pirates tonight shoot the three it looks like they can shoot it quite well so let's see if they're gonna continue that from warm ups into the game all right i'll send them back down to coach pierce the privilege of this game

011was made possible by those who have fought and continue to fight for the freedoms we enjoy let us honor and respect their efforts in our country by gentlemen removing their cats and everyone standing in attention placing their hands over their hearts as we proudly play our national anthem [Music] thank you and now i'll introduce your starters tonight's visitors to greensburg pirates that guard is 6-2 junior number 12 colin cummer at barney's 6-2 sophomore number 14 kai dyer at guard a 6-3 senior number 20 lane sparks and forward a 6-3 junior number 32 of brendan stanley and at 4 a 6-3 junior number 34 dakota walters your head coach for your pirates stacey hyde and that is your greensburg pirates and now olympian fans it's time to get on your feet let's introduce your starters for

012your columbus east olympians atari 6-2 senior number 10 daniel murphy that car is six foot sophomore number 12 ben silva mccarty 510 junior number 23 will reekers that car is 6-1 senior number 31 jacob pierce and then forward a 6-3 senior number 33 tyler boyer your headphones for your olympians rip shitty and that is your so zach there we have it the starting lineups for each of these teams tonight i forgot to mention in our early broadcast the columbus east olympians looked red hot in their shoot around many people don't really pay attention to that but i think that can play a huge role coming in coming in early with a big and great shoot around everybody was to look like they were making their shots for the olympians yeah i think that goes both

013way for greensburg so interesting matchup on our hands here tonight so let's take a look and decided to call this game looks like daniel murphy will be doing the tip for the olympians and number 12 colin comer and looks like greensburg won the toss and we are underway here in the orange pit like you mentioned zach a lot quite a point scored by this greensburg team let's see what kind of offense they they do tonight as that one is tipped around kept alive by greensburg sticking with that patented man they've ran all year you read my mind there zach was about to say that one [Applause] screenberg passes it up to the top key to number 34 dakota walters a very young team here tonight for the greensburg pilots as the three ball is up

014and good number 20 lane sparks 4-3 you mentioned zach 3 point are going to be huge for this greenberg pirates team as they didn't miss quite they didn't miss many early on in the shoot around tonight jacob pierce kicks into the corner to murphy pump fakes back to pierce in the corner he takes the three up and in and out and rebounded by 12 colin comer and he pushes the ball down the court here for the pirates crossover hesitation kick out to the three shot is up and off the mark rebounded by piers and the olympians looking to answer back enriquez who was red hot in wednesday's game and he is hot off to a good start again will reekers for three both shots taken out of the right corner so far for the olympians

015all tied up at three with 6 30 to go here in the first great defense said by murphy number 14 kai dyer kicks it to number 12. paulin comer for another three-point basket for this pirates team zach we said this wednesday night but i feel like every time every team we play shoots the three ball well as daniel murphy gets the rebounds and finally gets that one to fall yeah i don't think that's an understatement but this isn't unexpected i don't think the greensburg pirates are a very good three-point shooting and all-around shooting team so how can the three-point shot being very well ought to open up your whole entire offshoots yeah for sure if you if you hit some threes that means you stretch the defense out and you're able to maybe drive and

016kick and get better three opportunities or little dinkin ducks down into the basket for easy layups there's a travel violation the olympians get the basketball here down one as pierce dribbles to his right great pass great cut there but off the mark by tyler boyer you would take those looks anytime you can get those excuse me i kind of said that came off my tongue there a little bit three point baskets have been the success factor here tonight so far for the pirates they get it down low and off the mark and rebounded by jacob pierce and he's pushing the ball down the court between the legs gets to his left and up and off the mark there rebounded by number 32 brendan stanley and number 20 lane starks brings it down and we're going

017to have a jump ball it's a great call by the referee there the refs were moving around quite a bit here early on when they were getting ready for their game yeah they were all three of them were stretching and jogging up and down the court i think that's not a bad idea i have to agree it's quite a bit of running they really don't people really don't realize has been passed it down to boyer pierce on the right wing in the corner two reakers he's been the man so far and he was a man in the second half in wednesday's win as silva dribbles out back to boyer on the left wing a lot of cuts and a lot of passes here tonight by the olympians as expected there strong take there by pearson

018off the mark rebounding by 14 kai dyer crossover and we're gonna have a blocking foul by reekers one thing that hasn't taken place yet but it'll be interesting to see as the game commences is the rotations for the olympians tonight depending on foul trouble i don't know what the olympians rotation will be last last last game i don't think piercer boyer really came out for more than two minutes at a time so interesting to see what the what the rotations will be again here tonight as lane starks gets the layup to fall puts the pirates up three as they get it down low to silva he poses back to reakers to pierce he takes the second three of tonight and nothing but nets jacob pierce with the big three-point basket to tie the game up

019at eight that three for pierce might open up the driving lanes he's been trying to get into over here and we saw this last game too pierce was looking to attack and was really aggressive going into the evansville game i think as the game wore on he kind of fell off due to not being able to play for over two weeks he just got a little tired so three out of the five starters have scored already out of the gate that's a great thing as a coach to see as silva takes this three and nothing but nets then silva 4-3 11-8 is our score 335 as that's stolen away by reekers he's pushed the ball one-on-one fast break and daniel murphy couldn't get that one to fall and rebounded by the pirates lane stark 18-foot

020jump shot up and good he's been red hots for the pirates here tonight seven points already for lane starks and this pirates team seems like left-handed shooters always have a silky smooth release and that's another example right there lane sparks is the only senior in the starting lineup 6-3 guard and he has seven points here tonight in the orange pit as ben silva looks to pass it in here he needs to get it in soon and almost a turn over there recurs keeps it and we're gonna have a foul committed by number 12. colin komer 309 remaining here in the first quarter one point ball game wednesday's matchup was back and forth until the fourth quarter i'm expecting this one to be the same way that's what it's looking like so far as pierce has

021it passes it to the right side to murphy he get gets him in the air and fade away and off the mark he's gone off to a slow start here tonight but the only way to get out of those is keep shooting the ball as that three-point is off the mark and rebounded by silva and he's gonna toe tap the line and step out didn't really look he had the possession there to be out of bounds but number 14 is taking the ball out for the pirates i haven't really seen anybody this year really wear the shooting sleeve there's one tonight yeah my olympians don't really have much accessory gear that they really wear i don't think they wear any leggings or or shooting shooting sleeves as colin coomer gets the three-point basket his second

022of the night and a great move there by reaker spins and gets it in 4-2 reekers with five and tipped away and saved by reekers great hustle there by will reekers and pierce brings it down pass it to silva one more to boyer corner three up and good tyler boyer for three they're making a statement tonight beyond the three-point line here and the shot is up and good lane starts once correction again lane sparks olympians with four three-point shots falling tonight it's pretty good here just in the first quarter the ball is moved around to the right's corner to daniel murphy pump fakes cross court to jacob pierce hesitation gets to the right block great pass in the corner to reakers fires a three and shorts great look there and sparks has the rebound and

023the three-point shot is up and good for colin comer his third of the game nine points all threes for colin here tonight and that's stolen away there by the pirates they have the numbers he's going to take it himself that's braden stanley for two not the type of passing to throw there very telegraphed easy to read olympians again like we've seen all year looks like they're going to be holding for the last shot with 48 seconds left in the first quarter much better going into a quarter down two instead of four here or six if we do not convert here and they have some time here as reekers has it above the volleyball line so no five second call there if you're above the line there as silva has it hesitates and finally gets tyler

024boyer the ball here 15 seconds on the clock here big shot here for the olympians going into the second quarter silver picked his dribble up cross court dangerous pass and it's going to be greensburg basketball don't know about that one not a good pass by silva again it's a second bad pass in a row but olympians got the bad end of the call there that looked like it was off greensburg olympian's not fortunate on that out of bounds play 8.2 seconds here let's see if greensburg can get a shot to fall as the red hot sparks fires up the three and good point and a full court shot is off the mark and there we have it 23-16 is our score so zach like we mentioned quite a bit of points scored by both teams

025in the first quarter there coach shitty seemed like he was trying to get the boys maybe i don't know what he was saying but he seemed kind of heated there during their huddle there so what was your first take in the first quarter well their end of quarter execution was not good and particularly silva he made some really iffy passes that led to some turbo turnovers for the olympians and they were just giving them some pretty easy threes some really transition and wide open threes so if they could sure those things up i think they'll be able to bring this game back into back into closer contention as greenbergs gets the three-point shot to fault it pretty much in the quarter there as lane sparks has been their guy with 12 points already just in

026one quarter and a great take there by number colin comer collin with 11. that was his only shot made that wasn't a three he was three for three from the three-point line there in the first quarter that's tyler boyer back to silva 720 on the clock here olympians trail the greensburg pirates ranked 3 and 3a and the floater is off the mark there by ben silva and a great move there but tipped around and stolen finally by jacob pierce got the numbers to silva he's gonna toss it down low to casey bartholomew who's in for daniel murphy pierce gets the right block up and good jacob pierce 4-2 give him five on the nights here in the orange pit quick fake jazz set to the left took it right to the right to the rim

027with his right hand see the olympians can pick it up on the defensive end here mitch match down low good job by the pirates to see it but off the mark gets his own rebound and tipped around by i think an olympian player but that will go in as two points for 32 brandon stanley i think bartholomew on the retip just may have accidentally hit it in there a great step back three but off the mark and rebounded by colin he looks to push them off the court down to number 14 who is scoreless back to lane colin 234 dakota walters and drives a strong take lane sparks for another bucket and we're gonna have julius daly and daniel murphy in for ben silva and jacob pierce so will reekers who got off to a

028slow start in the first half last game but then second half he was just a different breed there scoring 20 points as julius daly tipped that one got tipped excuse me finally saves it tyler boyer cross court to murphy great move there gets inside and off the mark rebounds it three-point shot tyler boyer and in and out a couple bad offense possessions there for the o's zach what's your take on those just not very good communication they've just been they the greensboro pirates have also had some good uh active hands tipping the ball and throwing the olympians off of their off their spot so maybe seem to be a lot sharper with their passes and and their shot selection and will be a charge taken by dana murphy great basketball iq there to step in

029and set his feet and take that one as lane sparks picks up his first 5 24 remaining here in the second quarter will reekers dribbles down the left gets to the left loses control of it but keeps it alive casey bartholomew finally gets it after it's been tipped around by several players and 34 will pick up his i think his first dakota walters picks up his first team's third with 5 12 remaining here the olympians need to get a big basket here they need some kind of spark some kind of momentum here they have not had points in the last since basically the first quarter as julius daly fires a three and off the mark he was very hot in the three-point line in the jv game he got some action there in the corner

030daniel murphy slides his feet great defense there sparks passes it around finally to dakota walters who has zero points on tonight i'm guessing he's looking to change that here soon great cut there to pass by lane to colin he gets that one to fall as reekers beats his mane off the dribble gets inside throws it up and blocked by colin coomer and lane's going to bring it and float that one in and a timeout taken by coach shitty i meant to see what he's going to say during this timeout very interesting greensburg's very long and they've had some very active hands here so far very great all-around play there by the pirates so we'll take a look at our columbus cheerleaders let's see if there's any music like we mentioned we cannot have our microphones

031on with music all right we are good so our columbus is cheerleaders foreign so the screenberg pirates team only has three people in the scoring column but with 33 points scored as a team lane sparks colin coomer and braden stanley have been the only three people to score here for the pirates doesn't matter who scores it's just the final score that's the only really thing that matters and so far pirates have that advantage most of the scoring has been colin coomer and lane sparks here i've been the go-to guys here for this pirates team we have records brings the ball down the court daniel murphy to boyer two reekers in the corner back to murphy at the top of the key julius daly has the ball tyler boyer dribbles to his right hands it off

032to daley looks down low to boyer but doesn't get it great defense there by the pirates but a great pass there by daniel murphy and tyler boyer puts it up 4-2 gives him five points on the knights and the greensboro pirates looks to push the ball down the courts as sparks great pass and it's going to be out of bounds olympian basketball great defense to stop there for the olympians gonna have ben silva check in for julius daly so the starters back in here maybe to finish out this first chapter here zach i would i would assume so i don't see why there really be any other substitutions at this point unless it's for less is for fouls speaking of fouls comas east with only one team foul here and greensburg with three so very

033clean matchup by both teams here so far as pierce gets baseline spins back cut to daniel murphy great pass and daniel murphy gets that one to fall for his fourth point of tonight pierce always throws those tight rope balls into really contested windows and always seems to complete them and the three-point shot is up and off the mark his first three-point miss of the night and stolen by piers and he's going to take it himself gets to the left and off the mark strong rebound by daniel murphy and he gets two in a row there and a timeout taken by greensburg great response when the olympians come out of timeout they got a little bit sparks of life here getting some getting some defensive stops that's lead to some transition points for the olympians for

034the olympians so far daniel murphy with six then silva with three reekers with five pierced with five and boyer with five so once again quite a bit of scoring here for the team wise i should say for the olympians greensburg coach not happy with his players coming out of that time out here heard some heard some uplifted voices telling him to move the ball and some other things so see if greensboro can you get it pirates ship i actually did think of that when i said that but i didn't care to mention it well i thought i should so here we go 255 to go here see what each team has done after the 32nd timeout here the olympians on a little run here let's see if greensburg can put an end to that as

035a very talented guard gets inside that's lane sparks 4-2 has been silva has it 2 30 on the clock here passes it to daniel murphy has it to boyer spins inside throws up the shot and good great shot there but great defense by the pirates but just a better shot there by boyer and stolen he read that one he's all alone and he's gonna take the easy layup and add two more for tyler boyer two minutes on the clock olympians have done a great job tonight capitalizing off torn our turnovers in the corner is number 34. dakota walters still scoreless here tonight but that is tipped by pierce the script has been flipped a little bit here since that first time out taken by coach city this quarter and it's now the east olympians who

036have had the active hands and great defense closing this deficit to seven [Music] and way back to the back court number 20 lane sparks catches it to colin coomer and get his hands in there but kept alive and the floater is up and good lane sparks once again finding a way to score and up to boyer and flutter short gets his rebound and draws la foul and puts boyer at the line for two he's kind of taken over here to end this second quarter zach yeah he has he's gotten himself into great position to score he's had some good drives and spins and some tough contested shots to be able to put through ties his points total for last last game against evansville he only had nine he's at nine right now could get to

037double figures here with this free throw has he missed the first as it is up and good tyler boyer converts 124 to go here in the second quarter as reekers moves his feet great cross over there by colin and maybe got away with the push off there but shot is off the mark and 24 addison barnes gets his first points of tonight great strong rebound there by barnes and boyer shot is off the mark there rebounded by sparks you can tell lane sparks is in great condition he doesn't even look gas and he's played this whole entire first half as that one's stolen away by reekers under a minute to go here see if we can cut the lead to single digits here so we're down 10 with 40 seconds to go here olympians again

038electing to try and hang on for the last shot silva has the ball with 25 to go here in the second quarter 10-point ball game 15 on the clock here's two reakers probably seen some more passes here as we're at 10. picks his dribble up we're at six seconds here who's going to take it spins in the corner two reekers fires a three big shot up and off the mark and there we have it our first half is completed 29 to 39 in favor of the greensburg pirates we will take a short break and hear a word from one of our sponsors and a word from the bcsc school corporation join bartholomew consolidated school corporation's team as a substitute teacher or a bus driver bcsc will help you become a substitute teacher by covering the

042of the second quarter they kind of lost their way had a couple bad passes and they didn't really finish out the first quarter really well i think they just need to re-establish their offensive identity of just you know shooting threes and getting the ball down deep into the post and making those and tyler boys are really hot i think they need to get the ball to him to try and lower this 10 point lead and to make it manageable go ahead in the fourth quarter to make it around five or so four points for tonight for the greensburg pirates lane sparks with 20 points here just in the first half colin coomer with 13 brendan stanley with four and addison barnes with two and for the olympians daniel murphy with six then silva with three

043reekers with five who we all know who only had two in wednesday's first half and went off to finish with 22 so wondering if will will finish strong here and jacob pierce has 5 and tyler boyer with 10. so as the olympians are coming out now 2 50 to go here to be underway olympians to look for a two-game winning streak zach i don't think they had one until they don't think they had a winning streak last year i think they only only won four games i don't think they all came after quite a bit of time but we'll take a look at the indiana pacers as they're taking on the knicks tonight zach it looks like it's all tied up at 44 with 2 54 to go here isn't quite a bit of players

044out tonight for the pacers uh yeah they're going to be missing one of their their leading scorer from last year tj warren he's going to be having foot surgery i believe in the next coming week to repair a i believe that they said it was a bone and the foot he's been having some plantar fasciitis issues with so hopefully they can get corrected because he's going to be a big piece going forward and they really need him back they're going to that's their weakest position probably is wing they're really not that deep there so losing their starter and leading scorer is not a good recipe for success and coming speaking a little bit ahead of ourselves sunday night sunday i should say with quite a bit of teams looking to get their playoff birth here

045but for our home team the colts they're looking forward a big win and they need some teams to lose zach can you take us through some of the scenarios that need to be in place for us to make it into the playoffs well first off the biggest thing is they need to win if they don't win none of those scenarios matter but they need uh they need either they need three one of three teams to lose they need the dolphins to lose the browns to lose or the um what was the last team i forget was it the ravens yeah baltimore and also the titans so if the colts win the titans lose they take the they take the fourth seed in the afc they win the division but that probably not going to happen

046they play the texans i think the best chance for the colts is to win and have buffalo beat miami because miami is going to be playing buffalo which they said buffalo is not going to be resting their starters so that's probably the best chance the colts have is to win and the bills to beat to the dolphins which means we'd get the seventh seed and we'd head to buffalo for wild card rican so there we have it good job there zach sign you up for nfl or something like that thank you there we have 30 seconds to go here before the first half i mean excuse me the second half is underway olympian basketball here as they will be going left to right here and greensburg going right to left daniel murphy takes the ball

047out looking like to get it into silva here 10 point ball game let's see if the olympians can get something going here early as reekers passes it to daniel murphy silva has it on the right wing in the corner to reakers as they hands it off to pierce at the top two murphy tyler burger gets inside pivots and fight for the basketball it looks like greensburg will get it sparks with the steal there and greensburg looking to go up 12. be a big shot here they can get it to fall as sparks passes it in the corner and we're gonna have a travel violation committed by greensburg say if we scored on that last possession get them to travel and score again you think of those things but one thing happens for a reason so

048we'll see here as boyer has it passes it to murphy across court to boyer he takes the jump shot and looks short and off the leg of a pirate great basketball play there by daniel murphy to knock it off the greensburg pirate player 6 56 to go here and they get it down low to reekers out to boyer 4-3 and good tyler boyer 4 3 olympians have been pretty close to a couple five second calls here tonight but have not had one yet they're pressing that line so they got to be able to get the ball out a little bit quicker that's colin tries to back down reekers but off the mark and silva to boyer who's had the hot hand and misses that one and a great save there by greensburg a missed opportunity

049there and greensburg hits number 34 dakota walters 4-2 pretty big swing olympians had a chance to cut the lead down and boyer forgot where he was a little bit off balance missed it and greensburg got some easy transition points layups become very difficult when you're off balance or forget where you're at on the floor everybody thinks of them as easy shots but sometimes the easy ones could be the hard ones in this as pierce has it to the low block spins inside pump fakes tries to draw the foul but short gets the rebound and there he has it draws the foul and puts him out the line for two probably should have been a foul on the first one got his own rebound re-gathered himself pumped fake got two greensburg defenders in the air and

050they toppled all over them easy foul call there no question jacob pierce is looking at his six and seven point here as that one is long for jacob pierce and the second one is good so six points tonight so far for jacob pierce i think four free throws shot so far in the game two by boyer and two by pierce and both went one for two 5 30 remaining here in the third quarter as sparks shot is long had two orange defenders in his face there and a kick violation picking violation great execution on the blockout from silva but hit down on bad pass on the other end but luckily olympians get benefited with a kickball that may have been a little bit of a questionable call but we'll take it so silva takes the

051ball out here needs to get it in here soon and finally get it into daniel murphy and we're gonna have a timeout taken by the olympians with 5 25 remaining here both teams kind of came out a little sloppy i think here in this the second half yeah that's that's accurate both both teams did come out a little sloppy but we'll see who's going to be able to correct it earlier in order to where to either push the lead or bring the lead down bring the league down cook city asking the referees right now where the ball is going to be taken out at that's always important depends what play you're going to draw up coming out it's always like in football what hash is going to be on coming out of a timeout so

052here we go after the timeout taken by coach shooting the olympians let's see what the home team can do with this out of bounds play here this was almost a five second call that's what made coach shitty take the time out in the first place as silva gets it in into pierce and daniel murphy back to pierce let's see if the olympians is a big possession here every possession here in the second half is going to be huge trying to get back into this lead spins to his right great move there but just short and a long rebound by number 34 dakota walters and the pirates are looking to grow this lead once again as colin picks up his dribble lane sparks who's been hot with 20 first half points for the pirates it's quite

053a bit of points in just one half there zach yep for sure but like i said both teams have scored a lot of points here so far this season as a three-point shot is made by number [Music] kai dyer his first points of the night and a big three-point shot there in a turnover by daniel murphy silva and murphy have not had the best two nights here this evening mental things i think's been what's and all the games besides wednesday night mental things and the little turnovers and stuff like that it's always cost us 4 20 here in the third quarter elaine starks fades away bank shot that's such a pretty shot there very impressive he sniffed out the potential charge then drive did a little baby fall away and hit the bank as dana

054murphy draws the foul driving the baseline 407 to go here dakota walters picks up his third and we're gonna have 24. addison barnes pettit and for the pirates seems like they've been running that same advance play quite a bit here tonight that's pierce with the big three and that's off the mark and rebounded by addison barnes sometimes out of bounds players just to get the ball in bounds you don't really care about scoring out of it with 3 45 to go here the olympians are looking to cut into this lead here at home against a very well team greensburg pirate basketball team and colin coomber gets inside great move there but off the mark rebounded by boyer up to daniel murphy and we're going to take a charge taken by number 14 kai dyer correct

055call from the referee as murphy picks up his first i don't think lane sparks this came out at all here in this ball game so far and he doesn't even look gas he looks like he has a bunch left in the tank and to the corner is dyer back to sparks and great hands there by silva that really needs to be a steal seeing any other college or nba that would be a good because the shot clock would go down but here in high school in indiana as long as you get the ball back you're fine you don't have to worry about little things like that and tipped around stolen by boyer ahead to murphy just needs the easy two and draws the foul daniel murphy is at the line for two i did not

056see the play at the other end i was looking at some action going on the other end off the steel but the rim was the rim was shaking the olympians were calling for a calling for a uh excuse me goaltending because the rim was shaking somebody must have hit the hit the rim while the ball was still up but i again i did not see what happened so i can't comment on it and two misses there by daniel murphy none of the refs can see it there oh a hard break there by the refs there i don't think i think i don't think any of the referees had a really good angle on it referee next near us when the play was played was happened he wasn't able to see it he was behind all

057of them and the others were free i think his angle of where he was the ball was in between both players so i don't think he was even both of them weren't even able to see it let's see if the olympians could get a stop here zeno murphy makes two free throws that could have been big there and a strong layup there by colin coomer and gives him two points here in the second half as julius daly has it gives it in to boyer crosses over to his left back to daley he takes a long three and short and a crossover and a rebound by number braden stanley as dyer has it back to colin as sparks has it gives it into dyer off the cut and a strong take there by kai dyer he

058has five points and they're all coming here in the second half as silva hesitates nice move there left-handed layup is good for ben silva give him five points on tonight and a great crossover miss and great defense there by the olympians up court to jacob pierce great pass and a great shot there assist from ben silva jacob pierce with two good forward lead pass with a little bit of backs and curse was able to run up to it and get an easy layup a big stop here in a big bucket would be the right mindset here if you're an olympian fan as we can inch closer to this lead going into the fourth quarter with 55 seconds to go here so underneath the minute see if greensburg will hold it for the last shot and

059sparks misses that one what's 45 seconds to go here rebounded by julius daly i'd really like the olympians to get aggressive here every single time they've held the ball before the quarter they've come up empty-handed or had a turnover i'd really just like to see let them play the game and let the game come naturally to them instead of just holding it coach shitty look like they want them to hold it and a almost turn over and it will be over the back like i just said play they just need to play they need to stop worrying about holding on for the last shot every single time they've tried to they just ended it and nothing they haven't really gotten any points at all or had opportunities for the other team to get points so

060let's see see boy is going to make lane sparks go to his right as he is left-handed 10 seconds to go here looks like the player is going to face guard him and make somebody else take the last shot here and boyer loses him lane sparks for three and good to end the quarter big shot there in the quarter and we'll take a look at our columbus east cheerleaders greensburg pirates lead big here going into the fourth dance [Music] foreign so we are a few seconds from starting the fourth quarter we're gonna need something big here to come back with eight minutes here as a coach what do you tell your player if you're down or winning here in this situation well if i'm east i gotta pick up the pace a little bit they're

061down by 16 at start of the fourth quarter here which means they got eight minutes to get this lead down to tire take the lead so they definitely got to pick up the pace a little bit if i'm greensburg i discontinue the way they're playing it's been working so far no need to change it this is something i i really would have liked to see early on i think chris bergman was very athletic and put him on a very good blow basketball player early on as he picks up the foul there but picks up the foul and the and one shot was off the mark rebounded by bergman as reekers passes it to bergman we need something here fast picks up his dribble [Music] see what the olympians can do we need something fast here

062with 720 on the clock as reekers gets inside to julius daly he takes the three and off the mark nice strong rebound by colin coomer and he's pushing the ball off the court to number 32 stanley and that's off the mark gets his rebound and draws the foul and puts him at the line for two with 702 remaining here in the fourth quarter julius staley picks up his first team's third stanley is at the line 4-2 and nothing but net on that one keeps growing this lead here see if the second one can fall and he gets it stanley with six points on tonight with seven minutes to go here bergman passes it to daley and almost a steal there but jacob pierce gets it out to reekers 4-3 shot is up and good will

063reekers with eight points here disaster turned into fortune for east as sparks has it who's been red hot with 25 points here tonight and great pass here and a great reverse layup there by dyer gives him seven on the night [Music] excuse me nine points for dyer bergman gives it two daily with six minutes to go excuse me six ten jacob pierce hesitates gives it two reakers two boyer he spins to his left draws i thought he was going to get the foul call there but gets that one to go there could be a foul or a travel and it wasn't either of them so i think the referees just want to play right there tyler with 15 points tonight as sparks seems like every team we played either has that one good person that

064either puts up 20 25 points and it's just enough to do it jacoby for silver creek then we had some good shooters for bedford who couldn't miss it like olympians just can't really match up that well as as what they'd like to because they just don't have enough size usually it's usually a problem because they have to pick and choose whether or not who's going to beat them because they just don't have the size stanley picks up an easy two points there as he muscles his way through as crace gives it two boy boyer crosses to his right in the corner pierce 4-3 looks short and it is stanley with the rebound 5 20 to go here we mentioned greensburg can put up quite a bit of points here they put up 61 so far

065as dire 2 coomer he spins to walters behind the back and stolen by boyer he's going down his left passes it to bergman and a turnover there once again by the olympians just missed opportunities like that here tonight have really killed the olympians that's not their only problem but that's one of the biggest i'd love to see the turnover ratio here tonight with the 4 40 to go as we're gonna have daniel murphy check in as dyer takes the ball out gives it in 2 34 [Applause] dakota walters and puts him at the line for two and the shot is no good short and rebounded by murphy up to a head to boyer and he's going to take it strong and a charged call tyler picks up the foul gives the olympians tick six team

066fouls and see if greensburg can keep this scoring going and sparks great pass down low shot is good 34 walters strong take and gets it daniel murphy strong take there and draws the fountain puts him out the line for two stanley picks up his second team's fourth 408 remaining here in the orange pit as it is good murphy converts gives him nine points tonight four minutes to go here as reekers picks up sparks as coomer has it with bergman guarding him at the top of the key hesitates crosses over gets his hand and chris bergman dives on it great hustle play there and up to reekers 4-2 great defense there by chris bergman great job by chris gets the tip ball on the crossover and dies on the ground like he's looking for a fumble

067he is a three sport athlete track football and basketball very uncommon to see that these days as the three-point shot is off the mark rebounded by silva and nobody stopping him he gets the easy two points gives silva seven points tonight and a timeout taken by greensburg 311 to go here in the fourth quarter 65-49 is our score in favor of greensburg we will take a look at our cheerleaders here let's see if music will be played doesn't look like it so we will keep our mics on here for this one here we go oh so zach some people that watching this might be thinking why take a timeout when winning what do you think the timeout was for there for greensburg just to kind of you know the olympians are up by or excuse

068me the pirates are by 16 but 311 have in the fourth quarter here olympians had a little momentum it's kind of just like a momentum breaker really was that for that timeout they just kind of kind of re-establish the offensive identity refocus get a little bit of water into rehydrate and close this game out strong so 3 10 to go here in the fourth quarter trapped there good idea coming out of out of the timeout from the olympians a little little little trap as christ takes a takes a spill as the boyer picks coomer up christ being very physical [Music] one thing i gotta say if you're a ref you really gotta be able to be ready to hear coach city in your ear all night he doesn't let things go not only coach shitty

069but the entire basically entire fan base here for any games any referee any place you are you got to be a very uh strong-minded person to be a referee that's for sure that's 32 stanley is at the line for the 101 converts that one and we'll give him a second shot and converts and give him 10. he's in double figures tonight as murphy passes it to bergman and a strong take floater off the mark and a strong rebound by coomer up the court two sparks and he slams it home lane sparks for two [Applause] tyler boyer 4-3 see if the olympians can finish this game on a positive note here with two minutes to go almost gets that one there great hustle by daniel murphy two minutes on the clock there and grace takes that

070one pauline coomer chris getting a little chippy with the green pirates i like it though oh he just got a tactical but then gets chippy there let's see what the refs say so krase bergman so puts lane sparks at the line there for the technical foul and misses it [Applause] let's see if he can get the second one to fall and does not the smartest thing there if you're an olympian fan or olympian basketball player two free throws and the ball and it looks like that's gonna be all she wrote for the starters here tonight as we're gonna have a fresh five in for bartholomew lloyd number 22 is jt coleman 35 is pete horton and 32 is western romine christ does not really get to see much action on a daily or a nightly

071basis but i thought he got some good energy some good defensive plays great hustle just got to clean up a little bit on the with the technical obviously i have to agree might be something that coach city might take a look at here throughout the rest of the season a great pass there down low to number 32 stanley and put them at the line for two this game has been very physical from the get-go especially here in the fourth quarter as time winds down and things get a little bit more heated c converts that one for greensburg that's all she wrote for the starters a well rounded team effort there for greensburg and they're starting i should say i shouldn't say starters but the first seven players on their lineup there stanley converts two there

072as the jv team did pick up a big win over greensburg 69-42 so good job to the jv players [Applause] picks up two that points here some varsity action there always fun for the younger guys to get in and get some action there under a minute to go here in the orange pit greensburg just electing to run the clock out here that's probably wise and stolen there by jt coleman let's see if the olympians can get one more shot up coleman to bartholomew back to coleman baseline jump shot is off the mark and blocked and that's going to be all she wrote here folks so greensburg becomes five and one and the olympians snaps the one game winning streak going one and five here on the season but if you're an olympian fan or columbus

073north fan you're definitely looking forward to tuesday's match-up but most importantly a very well and deserved win for greensburg what was your take on this greensburg pirates team well the scoreboard may not show but i thought it was a pretty good game all around olympian just had a couple rough patches particularly in the third quarter they just came out a little flat and greens were able to take control of that and they were just able to consistently put the ball in the basket more for the pirates dakota walters with six lane sparks with a solid 27 points colin kumar with 17 stanley with 12. barnes with two kay dyer with seven and those are your points for the visitors greensburg pirates and for the olympians what was your take on their performance for this evening

074well like i said olympians just they just had a couple couple just rough patches they just didn't really have a really offensive identity and they just kind of fell flat they were just a little bit out match here tonight as well greensburg is third in the state for 3a for a reason and the points scored tonight for the olympians daniel murphy with nine civil with seven reekers with ten pierce with eight and tyler boyer led the way with 18 so tuesday night's matchup we hope to see you guys all supporting on your favorite basketball team the columbus east olympians and for some of you north fans i might be watching good luck to you guys as well we will see you guys at columbus north tuesday night for the crosstown showdown that's all we have
