I'm going to make this brief, because I'm already late for today's Marquette-Wisconsin game.
If you are prone to believing that girls basketball is boring, then do yourself a favor and go check out the Campbellsport girls team. The Cougars really like to get up and down the floor and man, can they shoot.
I always get ticked off at people that blindly say that girls basketball is inferior to boys hoops. I know that it isn't the same. The game is different, and in my opinion, no better or worse. But I have a feeling that if many of you go check out a Campbellsport game, you won't be disappointed.
Other quick thoughts ...
WiFly will be close again: Laconia missed a 3-pointer with 1 second left and fell at Horicon, 58-56. These two teams, along with a handful of others, battled it out until the final game of last season for the conference title, and judging from the opening game it will be a close race again.
Fondy getting better: The Cardinals boys fell by 8 on the road at Kimberly and definitely showed signs they are getting better. Fondy led after the first quarter and even when it fell behind in the second half, still managed to battle back to get within 4 before the Papermakers pulled away. Look for a couple of Fondy wins next week at home — finally — against Appleton East and Menasha.
Saturday coverage: Yeah, so we don't have a Saturday paper. That doesn't mean you have to wait until Sunday to get coverage of Friday night games. Log on to www.fdlreporter.com for what you need to know from last night's action.
Marquette 77, Wisconsin 71: While I think that Bo Ryan is a fantastic X's and O's coach, there is nothing in his bag of tricks that can stop Marquette's Dominic James, who will go off for 25 points and a big 3-pointer late that ices it for the Golden Warrior Chickens.
