BBK v. Brush: Preview

Big Stage, Bigger Stakes

By: Samantha Parmertor

This Friday Night the boys' basketball team has a big game against the Brush Arcs. Not only is this game important because Madison is undefeated, but this game also determines who is ranked number one in the WRC. Both Madison and Brush are undefeated in their conference games.

Madison recently played Mayfield Wildcats and had a rough start to the game, but the whole team came together as one and put another win in their winning streak. The ending score was 82-46. The squad on Burns road just cannot be stopped.

 Some standout players like Zach Guyer and Corbin Anthony have had an outstanding season so far. Zach is the main 3 point shooter of the team, knows when it’s okay to take the shots himself or pass it off to his teammates. Corbin can not only dunk, but he is the mid range specialist of the team. Both Corbin and Zach said “We have had an outstanding season so far. We fought so hard in every game. We have grown up playing together. We click better than any other team. This game will hands down be the biggest game of the season. Definitely not a game you want to miss.” They both are incredible athletes and know how to keep the team together when they get into tough situations.

The boys basketball team picked up right where the football team left off entertaining Madison’s Friday nights. The whole town comes together in the gym filling it with high spirits. We have the band playing. We have the fans and the spirit section supporting and cheering on the team.

Assistant principal Mr Mayer said, “It really helps that we are at home because we have such a high spirited environment. We out run every team we play. We are way more conditioned than all the teams we have played. Just like against NDCL we out ran them. Brush is a fast team I feel as if they will turn it into a track meet. I know we can keep up with them but their speed might be the biggest challenge of the game. As long as we keep the ball moving and not pla  selfish ball and play team ball, then there’s not doubt that we can pull out another win.”

Last year Madison and Brush  played twice, Madison pulled out a W for both games. The first game Madison won by 3 points and the second game they went into overtime. This definitely is game that you don’t want to miss!
