00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,100
 Now let's go live to Courtside. Here's the voice of the Falcons, Kevin Johnson.

6
00:00:43,380 --> 00:00:48,100
 And good evening on this Saturday night in January. We're at home at the Coffee Gym.

7
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:54,940
 The Florence Falcons getting ready to take on a friend from down in South Alabama, the Birmingham area.

8
00:00:55,420 --> 00:00:59,520
 Terrence High School, the Wildcats come to town to take on the Falcons here tonight.

9
00:01:00,020 --> 00:01:03,300
 A good matchup here of a team that has had success before.

10
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,500
 We're joined now by the head coach, Coach Dylan Burleson.

11
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:11,860
 And Coach, you have played them from south of the state to the west to the east to the middle here from Birmingham.

12
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:17,380
 Terrence comes to town. You have really given a lot of different looks for your team, and this is another good look.

13
00:01:17,580 --> 00:01:21,920
 For sure. It's another really good look. They were a regional runner-up last year in Hadsville.

14
00:01:22,460 --> 00:01:27,780
 They've got a really good record this year. They've stepped out of their box in some games, and, you know, we've got to come ready to play tonight.

15
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,840
 It's going to be a good test for us. They've got some older guys that have played a lot of basketball.

16
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:40,940
 So, again, like it's another team that maybe we're not really familiar playing with, but it's a really good team that was fortunate enough to come to Florence here today, and we need to continue to improve and get better.

17
00:01:41,220 --> 00:01:47,400
 You had a game canceled last night, so you had a rare four days of practice. What was practice like for your team this week?

18
00:01:47,580 --> 00:01:48,920
 Really good. Really good.

19
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:58,440
 I felt like we were able to press the reset button in some areas, but I also felt like we were able to get back to some of the basics and some of the fundamentals that we really lean on and some of our habits.

20
00:01:58,820 --> 00:02:06,360
 We're able to put in some new things. Our guys feel refreshed. It's our first game in five days. Like you said, that is a little bit unusual, but our guys are ready to roll.

21
00:02:06,660 --> 00:02:08,320
 Coach, best of luck tonight, okay? Appreciate it.

22

46

 Florence, Falcon basketball, KJ with you.

47
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,280
 Glad to be with you on this Saturday night.

48
00:04:31,340 --> 00:04:33,380
 Kevin Johnson along with Mike Albertson, my good friend.

49
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:39,520
 As we're scrambling to get the rosters from Tarrant who are just getting them to us and we're getting them all written down.

50
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:44,240
 But Mike, anytime you can come play basketball on Saturday night, it's that time of the year when it's starting to get fun.

51
00:04:44,700 --> 00:04:47,920
 And the Falcons, you know, the record is not what they want right now.

52
00:04:48,020 --> 00:04:53,980
 And yet at the same time, you just sort of sense maybe that team is starting to find a little bit of a rhythm right now.

53
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,300
 You certainly do.

54
00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:59,000
 You know, you look at the, you know, the beginning of the year and there were some struggles.

55
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:04,380
 There was, you know, single-digit losses to some big-time teams over the course of time.

56
00:05:04,980 --> 00:05:08,000
 And then they started, you know, kind of making them closer and closer.

57
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,940
 And now they're starting to win those close games.

58
00:05:10,420 --> 00:05:18,000
 And so, you know, when the Falcons have really knuckled down and they've really put themselves together,

59
00:05:18,140 --> 00:05:20,580
 they've done a great job really right in the ship.

60
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,820
 These young guys are growing up before our eyes and they're putting a lot of great things together.

61
00:05:24,980 --> 00:05:30,300
 So as the season goes on, you know, you mentioned it, you know, about them putting things together on a Saturday.

62
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,760
 I remember a Saturday here last year against Northwest Rankin, Mississippi, that, you know,

63
00:05:34,780 --> 00:05:39,100
 they really came together as a team and they put it together and really made a deep run.

64
00:05:39,220 --> 00:05:44,880
 So let's look for the Falcons to continue to right that, you know, ship and take some steps forward as the season goes on.

65
00:05:45,140 --> 00:05:46,100
 I agree with that, too.

66
00:05:46,180 --> 00:05:48,080
 And, Mike, one other question I'll ask you is this.

67
00:05:49,060 --> 00:05:52,620
 Coach Dillon Burleson has played them from as far away as Auburn.

68
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:56,400
 We have played teams, I believe, from the Mobile area, maybe in a tournament.

69
00:05:56,540 --> 00:06:00,080
 I know we've played the Huntsville teams, Huntsville High School included.

70
00:06:00,740 --> 00:06:04,080
 Five of the top ten teams in 7A we have faced already.

71
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,960
 Probably nine ranked teams we have faced that are ranked right now.

72
00:06:08,420 --> 00:06:10,820
 And he has not shied away from you on schedule as of.

73
00:06:11,060 --> 00:06:12,800
 No, and you're not supposed to.

74
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:19,560
 You know, Coach Burleson knows what it takes to have a program that's going to be growing and contending.

75
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:25,400
 And, you know, yes, we could, you know, put a circle on the map and only go within 20 miles of our school,

76
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,700
 but that's not going to make us any better.

77
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,340
 You know, we see those teams all the time.

78
00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:33,800
 Being able to go outside of your area, see different philosophies and different athletes out there is super important,

79
00:06:33,860 --> 00:06:35,220
 especially when it comes to tournament time.

80
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:39,520
 If we're going to be looking to compete at the state level, we've got to play those state level type teams.

81
00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:44,800
 And one of the reasons this game is played is because Florence made it to the regionals last year.

82
00:06:44,860 --> 00:06:46,600
 Northwest regional went on to the final four.

83
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,900
 And while at the Northwest regional, this Tarrant team saw Florence play and they were contacted and said,

84
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,540
 hey, we'd love to come play you guys.

85
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,080
 Y'all are the top team we want to play.

86
00:06:55,540 --> 00:06:58,900
 Dylan Burleson not shying away from anyone and picking up the phone and saying, hey, let's play a game.

87
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:00,940
 So that's why Tarrant's come up today.

88
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,460
 The girls just finished a minute ago.

89
00:07:02,940 --> 00:07:05,920
 Florence girls won that game handedly walking away with it.

90
00:07:06,380 --> 00:07:08,120
 Tarrant is a 4A school.

91
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,280
 They are 10 and 7 on the season.

92
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,760
 They have played competition above themselves.

93
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:17,980
 They are right now, I believe, leading their area in play and a veteran team.

94
00:07:18,060 --> 00:07:19,080
 So they are a good team.

95
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,420
 So it'll be a lot of fun.

96
00:07:20,820 --> 00:07:24,640
 Excuse me when Florence and Tarrant go at it with one another.

97
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:30,440
 And, you know, Mike, when we talk about this Florence team, there's a lot of teams,

98
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:36,420
 not only just Florence in the past maybe, but teams anywhere, that if your record was, say,

99
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:42,800
 like Florence is where you're at five wins and 10 plus losses, that you would have folded and said, we're done.

100
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:44,780
 We've cashed it in.

101
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,200
 This team is just the opposite.

102
00:07:46,900 --> 00:07:47,780
 They certainly are.

103
00:07:47,780 --> 00:07:51,460
 You know, as the season has gone on, we've seen that they've had a rough start,

104
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,140
 but they were playing the best of the best of the best.

105
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,200
 And, you know, they only had two returning real starters from last year

106
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:03,900
 and being able to come back and, you know, and really get these younger guys in the mix

107
00:08:03,900 --> 00:08:05,660
 and really come together as a program.

108
00:08:05,780 --> 00:08:06,740
 This is what it's all about.

109
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:12,320
 You know, this isn't just forging a one-and-done kind of mentality with a great run in the playoffs.

110
00:08:12,500 --> 00:08:16,640
 This is going to be able to build and build and build as the years go on.

111
00:08:16,700 --> 00:08:18,000
 And Coach Burlsen understands that.

112
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,880
 He's done a great job, and these Falcons have responded.

113
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,040
 Well, both teams coming to the bench.

114
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,280
 We want to give you an update, by the way, just a little bit of broadcasting update coming up.

115
00:08:27,380 --> 00:08:28,880
 Alabama basketball follows us.

116
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,280
 As a matter of fact, at Alabama game, you'll catch the entirety of it starting at 7 p.m.

117
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,380
 So no matter how we finish here, we will send that to you at 7 p.m.

118
00:08:36,380 --> 00:08:39,360
 If we're not finished here at the coffee gym, we think we can get this one in,

119
00:08:39,380 --> 00:08:41,140
 and we look forward to that today as well.

120
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,880

127
00:09:06,020 --> 00:09:08,820
 crispy bacon, and creamy pepper sauce, go for it.

128
00:09:09,260 --> 00:09:11,040
 March to the beat of your own drum.

129
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,320
 Bite into the beef of your own Whataburger creation.

130

142
00:09:57,660 --> 00:09:58,920
 Yeah, this isn't that.

143
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:03,140
 I didn't have to write a long essay or audition or make a half-court shot.

144
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,860
 I just had to open a bank-independent account, use my debit card,

145

 sign up for online banking, and have a positive balance.

174
00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:34,020
 Welcome back to the Coffee Gym.

175
00:11:34,100 --> 00:11:36,620
 The T&T fireworks pregame show coming to a close.

176
00:11:36,740 --> 00:11:39,160
 Starting lineups here for the Florence Falcons

177
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,660
 and the Wildcats of Tarrant High School out of Birmingham.

178
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,840
 Let's first meet the Wildcats of Tarrant High School

179
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,760
 coming in with a 10-7 record.

180
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,000
 Antonio Caldwell will get the start.

181
00:11:51,100 --> 00:11:51,940
 He wears number zero.

182
00:11:52,060 --> 00:11:56,040
 He'll be the point guard along with Darian Knox

183
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,940
 who wears number one.

184
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,060
 Jalen Simmons will get the start.

185
00:12:04,140 --> 00:12:05,320
 He wears number two as well.

186
00:12:06,420 --> 00:12:08,860
 Remember, this team is a team that went to the Sweet 16

187
00:12:08,860 --> 00:12:11,840
 in 4A last year at the Northwest Regional.

188
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:16,660
 Trell Robertson will get the start as well.

189
00:12:16,940 --> 00:12:19,100
 And finally, Tristan Goodwin.

190
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,640
 So Goodwin, Robertson, Simmons, Knox, and Caldwell.

191
00:12:22,260 --> 00:12:26,220
 The starting lineup for the Wildcats of Tarrant High School

192
00:12:26,220 --> 00:12:28,380
 out of Birmingham, Alabama.

193
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,380
 The last time I was in Birmingham at Tarrant High School,

194
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,260
 1988, Mike, Carbett County High School,

195
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,560
 played Tarrant in the semifinals in football.

196
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,420
 Final score was Tarrant 20, Carbett County 12,

197
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:40,740
 and I still remember it.

198
00:12:41,140 --> 00:12:41,960
 Can you imagine that?

199
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,460
 All right, Rain Man, here we go.

200
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,900
 Starting lineup foul for the Florida Falcons coming.

201
00:12:48,700 --> 00:12:50,760
 Wearing the home white, trimmed in blue.

202
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,000
 Let's get it started with Taylon Jones,

203
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:57,780
 who gets the start.

204
00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,500
 6'3", Junior.

205
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:01,220
 He'll need a big game tonight.

206
00:13:01,220 --> 00:13:08,240
 Next up, Jaceon Payne.

207
00:13:08,300 --> 00:13:09,560
 He's been outstanding.

208
00:13:09,740 --> 00:13:13,400
 Maybe the best score in the Northwest Alabama area.

209
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:14,760
 5'10", Junior.

210
00:13:16,060 --> 00:13:18,620
 Jaceon Pearson, the point guard, 5'9", Senior.

211
00:13:18,820 --> 00:13:21,200
 He is the catalyst of this team in so many ways.

212
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,000
 Kevante Green will get the start.

213
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,860
 He wears number 10, Green, 6'2", sophomore.

214
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,020
 Excuse me, Junior.

215
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,820
 And playing the post, Jaden Irons, also a junior, at 6'1".

216
00:13:39,820 --> 00:13:44,160
 So it's Irons, Green, Pearson Payne, and Jones for Coach Dylan Burleson.

217
00:13:44,740 --> 00:13:48,060
 What do you want to see out of your Florence Falcons tonight, Mike Albertson?

218
00:13:48,260 --> 00:13:51,480
 You know, I think early on, I mean, being able to control the ball,

219
00:13:51,580 --> 00:13:53,880
 run your offense quite well, and find some different scores.

220
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,100
 You know, we know that we're going to get our lion's share from Jaceon Payne

221
00:13:58,100 --> 00:14:01,800
 and Jaceon Pearson, but being able to get some other guys into the mix

222
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,820
 and get them going is going to be super important.

223
00:14:05,180 --> 00:14:08,460
 And, you know, some of those blue-collar points that Coach is always talking about

224
00:14:08,460 --> 00:14:10,260
 is always helpful as the game goes on.

225
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,100
 Florence will be going right to left as you listen.

226
00:14:17,340 --> 00:14:22,440
 And the tip controlled by the visitors of Tarrant High School.

227
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,260
 Florence opens man-to-man, a quick steal over there by Payne.

228
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,320
 Payne spins, lost his footing, lost the ball, and scooped back up by the Wildcats.

229
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:31,880
 They look to run, have an outlet.

230
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:37,720
 Knox goes up and jams it with two hands and makes himself well aware of the rest of this

231
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,060
 Florence crowd as he goes up with a two-hand jam, 2-0 lead.

232
00:14:41,180 --> 00:14:43,580
 Payne to answer, no good on the other end.

233
00:14:43,660 --> 00:14:45,080
 Rebound yanked down by Tarrant.

234
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,000
 Well, we see already, Mike, they have some leapers.

235
00:14:48,420 --> 00:14:49,140
 They certainly do.

236
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,440
 You know, a lot of athletes on the court here, a lot of speed.

237
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,380
 Matching up with Florence pretty well early on.

238
00:14:57,420 --> 00:15:05,440
 Whistle away and offensive foul against, looks like Knox on that on the moving away.

239
00:15:06,060 --> 00:15:07,940
 And Knox put his hands on his chest.

240
00:15:08,140 --> 00:15:10,880
 He knew right away he was moving along with that screen

241
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,460
 and that point of emphasis with the officials made it an easy call.

242
00:15:15,260 --> 00:15:20,480
 Just underway, 2-0, Tarrant leads it over Florence.

243
00:15:21,180 --> 00:15:25,000
 Jones has it, gets it to Payne, he gets in the paint, foot in the paint,

244
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,320
 can't get the shot off though and has to get it back outside.

245
00:15:28,660 --> 00:15:30,780
 Dribble handoff, they go inside the green, he's fouled,

246
00:15:30,860 --> 00:15:32,300
 and Knox just picked up his second foul.

247
00:15:32,300 --> 00:15:34,880
 Here we go, box team, box team.

248
00:15:39,500 --> 00:15:42,600
 Something happened away from the ball, the official blew the whistle

249
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,500
 and called the player over, so I'm not sure what that was all about.

250
00:15:45,820 --> 00:15:49,860
 But it looks like falcon ball underneath on the baseline.

251
00:15:50,780 --> 00:15:54,000
 You know, Mike, I mean, I didn't watch what happened, I didn't see it,

252
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,440
 so a good officiate going and making sure to settle everything down early.

253
00:15:57,540 --> 00:16:01,980
 That's the thing, they want to take control in the means of letting the game be played

254
00:16:01,980 --> 00:16:03,860
 but also make sure nothing gets out of control.

255
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,180
 Payne for three, won't go again.

256
00:16:06,300 --> 00:16:07,800
 Rebound inside by Green.

257
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,340
 He goes up and puts it in for the first point of the night, we're tied at two.

258
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,700
 Great box out there by Green underneath, really boxed out his man well,

259
00:16:15,820 --> 00:16:19,560
 went up high, high pointed that ball and put it back for an easy two.

260
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,200
 Block shot inside by Jones and he takes it down and brings it down the floor.

261
00:16:23,500 --> 00:16:26,120
 And he goes coast to coast and laid it up and it wouldn't go.

262
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,460
 Did everything right but that, rebound taken by the Wildcats

263
00:16:29,460 --> 00:16:31,200
 but stolen away by Pearson at midcourt.

264
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,740
 Pearson in the corner, Payne didn't pull the tree there, back over to Pearson.

265
00:16:35,180 --> 00:16:37,360
 Pearson in the lane, kicked it over to the other corner.

266
00:16:37,460 --> 00:16:38,600
 How about a three from Green?

267
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:39,420
 That one won't go.

268
00:16:39,740 --> 00:16:43,820
 Up and over the backboard, it'll go back to the Wildcats.

269
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,700
 Tied at two, up and down before we go.

270
00:16:47,140 --> 00:16:50,940
 Yeah, the pacing of this game, it should be quite fast.

271
00:16:51,020 --> 00:16:55,400
 Both teams pretty athletic and they do a great job out in open space.

272
00:16:56,100 --> 00:16:59,360
 The Wildcats you played last night, bring it down the floor

273
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,940
 and the scoop layup is a beauty right there by Goodwin.

274
00:17:04,620 --> 00:17:08,800
 But the Falcons go the other way and Green went up for the one-hand jam but was fouled.

275
00:17:09,860 --> 00:17:12,340
 And we haven't seen that aggression from Kevontae Green.

276
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,420
 You see him bursts.

277
00:17:14,780 --> 00:17:16,160
 You know, you do see him bursts.

278
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,900
 And Kevontae Green had, you know, visions of sugar plums dancing in his head.

279
00:17:19,980 --> 00:17:24,260
 He almost jammed that one down but it went up and over.

280
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:25,960
 Green did the foul.

281
00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:27,060
 He's going to be shooting two here.

282
00:17:27,540 --> 00:17:29,680
 Unfortunately, the Christmas window was closed for him.

283
00:17:29,740 --> 00:17:30,980
 But he'll go to the line to shoot two.

284
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:32,500
 Trailing four to two.

285
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,960
 Kevontae Green and Junior wearing number ten now.

286
00:17:36,100 --> 00:17:36,960
 First free throw in the way.

287
00:17:37,020 --> 00:17:37,540
 Too strong.

288
00:17:37,620 --> 00:17:38,000
 No good.

289
00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:41,780
 I like the aggression, though, Mike.

290
00:17:41,900 --> 00:17:45,060
 That's something I think that going forward at Florence has got to be

291
00:17:45,060 --> 00:17:47,680
 more of an aggressive team in everything they do.

292
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:48,560
 Absolutely.

293
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,480
 And Kevontae Green is just that man.

294
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,520
 He has the ability to take it to another level.

295
00:17:53,700 --> 00:17:54,980
 And, you know, it's one of those things.

296
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,020
 How do you convince a young man that he's got it?

297
00:17:57,180 --> 00:17:57,660
 You know what I mean?

298
00:17:57,700 --> 00:18:00,900
 And you're starting to see him take those steps towards that next level.

299
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:01,860
 He gets one of two.

300
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:02,540
 Four to three.

301
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,160
 Wildcats lead the Falcons early on here in the first quarter.

302
00:18:07,460 --> 00:18:08,580
 Wildcats in the front court.

303
00:18:08,740 --> 00:18:09,320
 Stealth back.

304
00:18:09,580 --> 00:18:13,420
 18-footer is beautiful right there by Simmons.

305
00:18:14,780 --> 00:18:16,560
 And the Falcons are going to have their hands full.

306
00:18:16,620 --> 00:18:17,440
 This is a pretty good team.

307
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,300
 They remind me a lot of Simpson Valley we saw the other night.

308
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,640
 And Jones has fouled on the inside for Florence.

309
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,940
 He'll go to the line and shoot two as they pierce and drew the,

310
00:18:26,940 --> 00:18:28,700
 defense and went inside.

311
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,040
 That was a beautiful look by Pearson underneath.

312
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:36,540
 Taylor Jones had a great, he pinned his defender down in that low block.

313
00:18:36,700 --> 00:18:42,640
 Great job using his body there and went up hard and wanted to create contact for a foul.

314
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:45,200
 The lefty's first free throw would not go.

315
00:18:45,340 --> 00:18:47,080
 Bounced high off the rim but would not go down.

316
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:54,940
 Jones will attempt the second one to tie it up.

317
00:18:55,260 --> 00:18:56,920
 I checked that to cut it to two.

318
00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,600
 And he makes that one.

319
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,320
 So custom lead to six to four.

320
00:19:05,340 --> 00:19:09,720
 Your vocal coaching staff of Florence marking out signals of what to do on defense.

321
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,860
 They're all about the defense.

322
00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:12,060
 Quickly in the lane.

323
00:19:12,180 --> 00:19:13,300
 Shot blocked again.

324
00:19:13,420 --> 00:19:15,040
 That time by Jones.

325
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:16,180
 And here come the Falcons again.

326
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:17,320
 The lob up to Green.

327
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,140
 He jams it home with two hands.

328
00:19:19,980 --> 00:19:20,640
 Well, well.

329
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,180
 From Pearson to Green.

330
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,000
 That brought the crowd to life.

331
00:19:28,780 --> 00:19:32,860
 But so does that for the Wildcats as Simmons drains the three.

332
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,120
 Falcons throw it down the floor.

333
00:19:37,380 --> 00:19:38,060
 Get it to Roy.

334
00:19:38,180 --> 00:19:38,960
 Just checking the game.

335
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:40,560
 Put it up off the glass and put it in.

336
00:19:42,980 --> 00:19:45,020
 Great aggressive move there by Cage Roy.

337
00:19:45,220 --> 00:19:47,700
 Being able to take it to the hole in traffic there.

338
00:19:48,140 --> 00:19:48,760
 Beautiful job.

339
00:19:49,060 --> 00:19:49,860
 Nine to eight.

340
00:19:50,820 --> 00:19:51,900
 Deep three again.

341
00:19:51,980 --> 00:19:52,420
 He checked.

342
00:19:52,540 --> 00:19:53,880
 That was no good for Wildcats.

343
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:55,120
 Pearson with a rebound.

344
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:56,120
 Gets it up to Green.

345
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:56,980
 Green pulls back.

346
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:57,900
 Kicks it over to Payne.

347
00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:58,880
 Drives baseline.

348
00:19:59,060 --> 00:19:59,420
 Goes up.

349
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:00,040
 Scoop layup.

350
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:00,420
 Oh, good.

351
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,120
 Got his own rebound.

352
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:01,740
 Knocked away.

353
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:02,500
 Saved by Roy.

354
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,920
 Roy picks up the dribble in the corner now.

355
00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:06,660
 Hands it off to Jones.

356
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:07,840
 He threw it across the court.

357
00:20:07,900 --> 00:20:08,700
 But he hit the rim.

358
00:20:08,700 --> 00:20:10,480
 He was trying to throw across the court.

359
00:20:10,860 --> 00:20:11,760
 And he hit the rim.

360
00:20:11,820 --> 00:20:12,360
 It bounced up.

361
00:20:12,420 --> 00:20:14,760
 And he goes to the Wildcats.

362
00:20:14,900 --> 00:20:16,440
 I don't think he kept that as a shot.

363
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:17,440
 But he did hit the rim.

364
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:20,500
 Wildcats in the front court with it.

365
00:20:21,580 --> 00:20:22,460
 Goodwin has it.

366
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,360
 Gets it to Robertson.

367
00:20:25,500 --> 00:20:26,980
 Robertson back door to Goodwin.

368
00:20:27,380 --> 00:20:28,020
 Goodwin spins.

369
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,020
 And the foot pushed off.

370
00:20:29,100 --> 00:20:30,720
 Another one called a foul on Florence.

371
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,180
 That's a tough call there.

372
00:20:39,620 --> 00:20:41,140
 Taylor Jones gets the first.

373
00:20:41,860 --> 00:20:44,000
 Teams first.

374
00:20:44,780 --> 00:20:45,940
 Florence trails nine to eight.

375
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,160
 And free throws coming for Goodwin.

376
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,440
 Early on, you're seeing Jalen Simmons looks like it's going to be their scorer.

377
00:20:54,580 --> 00:20:58,040
 He looks really confident, willing to shoot from pretty much anywhere on the court.

378
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,340
 And it looks pretty smooth out there.

379
00:20:59,340 --> 00:21:04,080
 Substitution for Florence.

380
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:04,580
 Go ahead, guys.

381
00:21:04,580 --> 00:21:05,860
 Substitution for Florence.

382
00:21:06,020 --> 00:21:08,000
 Burnett will come in along with Skipworth.

383
00:21:11,140 --> 00:21:14,240
 You see, Jalen Burnett, only a freshman.

384
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:21,660
 Tamari is Skipworth in there as well.

385
00:21:21,740 --> 00:21:22,620
 Both free throws no good.

386
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,100
 Florence has a chance to take the lead.

387
00:21:24,220 --> 00:21:25,640
 Trailing nine to eight here early on.

388
00:21:26,020 --> 00:21:26,880
 Midway first quarter.

389
00:21:27,380 --> 00:21:31,220
 Roy was trying to get it back out to Payne, but threw it away.

390
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,480
 Just an unforced turnover there.

391
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,120
 When the game gets going fast, sometimes when those unforced turnovers happen.

392
00:21:37,580 --> 00:21:37,820
 Right.

393
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,480
 You know, you get your body going one way.

394
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,100
 You take that jab step.

395
00:21:42,180 --> 00:21:43,320
 Your foot slips a little bit.

396
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,840
 There's a lot of defense going on.

397
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,520
 You just chuck that ball to where you think a guy is and just errant pass.

398
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:49,720
 Euro step.

399
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:50,300
 Doesn't matter.

400
00:21:50,420 --> 00:21:51,020
 Block shot.

401
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:52,060
 Here come the Falcons with it.

402
00:21:52,100 --> 00:21:53,260
 Pearson to Payne.

403
00:21:53,360 --> 00:21:54,580
 Payne surveys traffic.

404
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:55,280
 Back to Pearson.

405
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,060
 Kicks in the corner unselfishly.

406
00:21:57,120 --> 00:21:57,820
 Three on the way.

407
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:58,280
 Good.

408
00:21:58,820 --> 00:22:00,260
 Give that one to Skipworth.

409
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,440
 I like seeing Tamari Skipworth there.

410
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:05,920
 And I love the pass by Pearson.

411
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:06,960
 Unselfishness there.

412
00:22:07,380 --> 00:22:07,500
 Right.

413
00:22:07,580 --> 00:22:09,720
 That extra pass sometimes is beautiful.

414
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,400
 It gets your guy wide open.

415
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,580
 Skipworth hit the three with plenty of space.

416
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:15,880
 Oh, what quick hands by Pearson.

417
00:22:15,980 --> 00:22:16,480
 Knocked it away.

418
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:17,600
 But the ball back on the floor.

419
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,540
 Taken back by the Wildcats.

420
00:22:20,540 --> 00:22:23,360
 Boy, these two teams are mirrors of each other in the quickness.

421
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,780
 Still with it here is Goodwin.

422
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,080
 Goodwin comes back to the left.

423
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,320
 Breaks the count.

424
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:32,640
 Gives his dribble alive.

425
00:22:33,360 --> 00:22:34,960
 Guarded there by Payne now.

426
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,560
 Approaching the three-minute mark in her first quarter.

427
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,440
 Florence leads it 11-9.

428
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,880
 Goodwin has had the ball in his hand in about 30 seconds.

429
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:45,080
 Got away with a walk.

430
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:45,640
 No, he didn't.

431
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,040
 I called it, and it took a second for the official to see it.

432
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:49,720
 He said, no, no, wait.

433
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:50,280
 That looked awkward.

434
00:22:51,460 --> 00:22:54,200
 Turned over by the Wildcats.

435
00:22:54,360 --> 00:22:56,340
 So, Florence with a two-point lead and the basketball.

436
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:00,960
 Here comes Pearson with it.

437
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:03,260
 Gets the double high screen.

438
00:23:03,740 --> 00:23:04,460
 Hesitation dribble.

439
00:23:04,580 --> 00:23:04,820
 Look.

440
00:23:04,940 --> 00:23:05,800
 Picks up the dribble now.

441
00:23:06,180 --> 00:23:08,300
 Got Payne on the curl at the three.

442
00:23:08,420 --> 00:23:08,820
 No good.

443
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:09,920
 He's 0 for three so far.

444
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:10,980
 And out of bounds.

445
00:23:11,540 --> 00:23:14,140
 Rarely to see Jason sort of frustrated about his three-point shooting,

446
00:23:14,260 --> 00:23:15,920
 but he's 0 for three early on.

447
00:23:16,380 --> 00:23:17,620
 He's 0 for three early on.

448
00:23:17,660 --> 00:23:20,880
 Two of the three were just missed in and out.

449
00:23:20,940 --> 00:23:22,380
 That one was a little bit forced.

450
00:23:22,540 --> 00:23:25,180
 It was a little bit outside of his range.

451
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:25,900
 It was a little deep.

452
00:23:26,140 --> 00:23:27,700
 But, you know, he'll be fine.

453
00:23:27,860 --> 00:23:28,980
 It's that shooter's mentality.

454
00:23:29,140 --> 00:23:29,960
 You've just got to keep going.

455
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:30,400
 They'll fall.

456
00:23:32,620 --> 00:23:33,380
 Robinson with it.

457
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,180
 Deep three on the way again.

458
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:35,920
 Guess who?

459
00:23:36,060 --> 00:23:37,240
 Mr. Simmons does it again.

460
00:23:37,340 --> 00:23:42,840
 He has eight of the 12 points for the Wildcats,

461
00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:43,940
 and they lead it 12-11.

462
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:45,120
 And turnover off launch.

463
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:46,620
 Going baseline.

464
00:23:46,780 --> 00:23:47,180
 Lost it.

465
00:23:48,020 --> 00:23:48,420
 Burski.

466
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:49,560
 Bo Burski into the game.

467
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:50,780
 Along with Jaden Irons.

468
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,600
 Roy and Pearson will get a breather here in the last 2-15.

469
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,160
 Those are some nice minutes there by Cage Roy early on.

470
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,820
 You know, a couple rebounds, a defensive block there.

471
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,960
 And just some nice minutes, nice rotation there by the Falcons.

472
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,660
 Wildcats with the basketball in the front court.

473
00:24:11,940 --> 00:24:13,520
 They've got a great shooter here.

474
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,100
 He can score it and fill it up in Simmons.

475
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,680
 He got the high screen, but that's a moving screen.

476
00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:24,420
 So the moving screen will be an offensive foul there on Caldwell.

477
00:24:28,500 --> 00:24:30,160
 So Florence will inbound it.

478
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:31,800
 Traylon, 12-11.

479
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,240
 Substitution coming into the game.

480
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,260
 Knox will come back in for Caldwell.

481
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:46,900
 Florence has on the floor Burnett, Skipworth, Burski, Payne, and Irons.

482
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,320
 And Payne has the basketball with Irons sitting on the screen.

483
00:24:49,460 --> 00:24:50,860
 Payne hesitation into the lane.

484
00:24:51,220 --> 00:24:52,660
 Bounce pass to Burski on the block.

485
00:24:53,300 --> 00:24:54,580
 Burski kicked it back out, though.

486
00:24:54,700 --> 00:24:55,800
 One to get out to Burnett.

487
00:24:55,860 --> 00:24:57,080
 He has to chase it down to midcourt.

488
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,540
 Burnett, dribble handoff, gets it off there to Payne.

489
00:25:00,660 --> 00:25:01,420
 Excuse me, Irons.

490
00:25:01,500 --> 00:25:02,640
 Irons hard to the basket.

491
00:25:03,060 --> 00:25:03,560
 Put it up.

492
00:25:03,620 --> 00:25:03,960
 No good.

493
00:25:04,100 --> 00:25:05,020
 Burski got the rebound.

494
00:25:05,140 --> 00:25:05,860
 Put it up with the left hand.

495
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:06,260
 No good.

496
00:25:06,620 --> 00:25:09,880
 Burski came down with it again, but it was stripped away and taken away by the Wildcats.

497
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,200
 Wildcats still lead at 12-11.

498
00:25:12,700 --> 00:25:13,500
 Simmons has it.

499
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,740
 He's going with a head of steam.

500
00:25:15,360 --> 00:25:16,400
 Yo-Yo's with the basketball.

501
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,120
 Pull back.

502
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:18,120
 Three on the way.

503
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:18,720
 Missed that one.

504
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:19,640
 He's human after all.

505
00:25:19,980 --> 00:25:21,440
 Rebound taken down there by Florence.

506
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,040
 Stepped on the end line.

507
00:25:23,140 --> 00:25:23,760
 Did the Falcons.

508
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:25,500
 And a turnover again.

509
00:25:28,900 --> 00:25:32,200
 So a lot of unforced turnovers here in the first quarter for Florence, Mike.

510
00:25:32,300 --> 00:25:34,480
 That's part of maybe not knowing who you're playing as much.

511
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:35,500
 Saturday night.

512
00:25:35,540 --> 00:25:36,680
 And you haven't played for five days.

513
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,980
 You know, some of it is that speed, that game speed you can't replicate in a practice situation.

514
00:25:42,220 --> 00:25:43,680
 You know, and they're getting after it.

515
00:25:44,460 --> 00:25:46,280
 Ball knocked away, and Burski gets the steal.

516
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:47,840
 Burski kicks it back out.

517
00:25:47,940 --> 00:25:48,400
 Turn around.

518
00:25:48,500 --> 00:25:48,820
 Payne.

519
00:25:48,860 --> 00:25:49,120
 Open.

520
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:49,780
 Three up.

521
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:50,340
 No good.

522
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:50,860
 Won't go.

523
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:56,040
 Burski try to chase down the rebound, but Simmons and Knox beating to the corner for the Wildcats.

524
00:25:56,180 --> 00:25:57,020
 We're at one minute.

525
00:25:57,140 --> 00:26:00,220
 Here comes Knox with it up the floor, and he gets it off to Goodwin, who runs to the point.

526
00:26:00,980 --> 00:26:02,240
 Goodwin picked up by Jones.

527
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,840
 Way across the court on the left sideline.

528
00:26:06,780 --> 00:26:08,300
 Gets it now in the corner.

529
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:09,280
 Ball out of bounds.

530
00:26:09,380 --> 00:26:10,340
 Last touch by Florence.

531
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,240
 It'll stay with the boys from Birmingham.

532
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:16,580
 Tarrant High School.

533
00:26:16,820 --> 00:26:17,820
 Just south of Birmingham.

534
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:24,900
 So, if you go down 65 there a little bit, you sometimes can see the sign for Tarrant down that way.

535
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:26,740
 Great area.

536
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:27,880
 Great school.

537
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,020
 Great athletics over the years.

538
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,640
 Goodwin picked up right in front of our broadcast booth here.

539
00:26:34,740 --> 00:26:35,820
 Courtside by Skipworth.

540
00:26:36,060 --> 00:26:36,620
 Lost it.

541
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:37,300
 Chases it down.

542
00:26:37,380 --> 00:26:38,080
 Throws it back in.

543
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,040
 Great save there by the Wildcats.

544
00:26:40,460 --> 00:26:42,840
 As Knox catches it and brings it back out to Robertson.

545
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,600
 That may play for the last shot, leading it 12-11.

546
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,400
 Robertson, though, drives and he's fouling to reach in.

547
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,860
 They're going to get Bursky reaching in.

548
00:26:52,860 --> 00:27:01,880
 You know, Bursky's the big body, and when he reaches in, it's going to be seen a little more, I think.

549
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,620
 Looking to inbound it, having a little trouble.

550
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,620
 Pretty good defense there, but that time the Falcons come with a double and they get a foul again.

551
00:27:10,620 --> 00:27:11,340
 That's on Payne.

552
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:15,980
 So far, this game's playing right into Tarrant's hands.

553
00:27:16,100 --> 00:27:17,780
 They've really frustrated the Falcons.

554
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:22,980
 They've been methodical on their offensive side and really rushed the Falcons on the defensive side.

555
00:27:22,980 --> 00:27:27,280
 So, early on, you could see advantage Tarrant early on.

556
00:27:28,500 --> 00:27:33,620
 Lead official, Cedric Hawkins, gets the ball in to the Wildcats who inbound it here in front of us.

557
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,940
 Goodwin had it knocked away and nearly stolen by Burnett.

558
00:27:37,620 --> 00:27:41,860
 Great job by Burnett on help defense, being able to get his hands in the passing lane, tipped it away.

559
00:27:42,260 --> 00:27:46,720
 Almost was able to save it, but it went just out of bounds, just out of the reach of Burnett.

560
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,080
 Tarrant leads at 12-11 with 20 seconds to go here in the first quarter.

561
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,580
 Tarrant throws away, taken down by Skipworth, but he missed the layup.

562
00:27:55,180 --> 00:27:58,020
 He was looking for contact, and no contact came, and he missed the layup.

563
00:27:58,020 --> 00:28:01,940
 But now a lob on the other end and put up an end by Caldwell.

564
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,000
 The Wildcats lead by three.

565
00:28:04,140 --> 00:28:05,460
 Florence has it with seven seconds.

566
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,460
 Skipworth almost had it stolen away.

567
00:28:07,860 --> 00:28:08,580
 Kicked it in the corner.

568
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:09,820
 Deep three on the way.

569
00:28:10,140 --> 00:28:12,800
 Burnett at the buzzer will tie it up.

570
00:28:13,120 --> 00:28:14,620
 And what a quarter it was.

571
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,220
 Up and down the floor we go.

572
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,440
 The Falcons, the Wildcats, flying around at the end of one.

573
00:28:19,540 --> 00:28:20,400
 It's tied at 14.

574
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:21,640
 This is Falcon basketball.

575
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:22,560
 We're back in 60.

576
00:28:24,500 --> 00:28:28,560
 No matter the size of your team or your fan crew, Lost Pizza's got you covered.

577
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,380
 We're talking wings, salads, and the one and only Monster Pizza.

578
00:28:34,220 --> 00:28:37,700
 Perfect for team dinners, watch parties, or post-game celebrations.

579
00:28:38,180 --> 00:28:41,780
 Big plays deserve big flavor, and nobody delivers like Lost Pizza.

580
00:28:43,180 --> 00:28:45,040
 Feed the team, fuel the fans.

581
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:46,660
 Go big with Lost Pizza.

582
00:28:46,660 --> 00:28:52,000
 Getting the kids to practice on time.

583
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,220
 Remembering if it's your day to bring snacks.

584
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,500
 Making it to the game with a clean jersey.

585
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,360
 Why are simple things sometimes so complicated?

586
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,620
 Thankfully, with auto owners, insurance doesn't have to be one of them.

587
00:29:02,980 --> 00:29:05,920
 Auto owners works with independent agents who answer when you call.

588
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,980
 So you can worry about more important things.

589
00:29:08,300 --> 00:29:11,120
 Like whether your kid is going to run toward first or third base.

590
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:12,980
 That's simple human sense.

591
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:17,060
 In Florence, see Luke Brown at Henniger Johnson & Layton Insurance.

592
00:29:17,500 --> 00:29:20,300
 Call 256-764-8682.

593
00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:26,360
 One quarter in the books.

594
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,840
 Tarrant and Florence entertaining this Saturday night crowd.

595
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,320
 Nice crowd for a Saturday night here.

596
00:29:33,460 --> 00:29:34,420
 Tied at 14.

597
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:35,640
 The Falcons have their basketball.

598
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:36,580
 Wearing the home white.

599
00:29:36,780 --> 00:29:39,000
 Tarrant colors are the Navy in gold.

600
00:29:39,620 --> 00:29:40,440
 White numbers.

601
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,380
 The gold trim around their Navy uniform.

602
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,280
 Sharp looking uniform.

603
00:29:43,500 --> 00:29:46,920
 Florence and all white trimmed in that Falcon royal blue.

604
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,560
 Pearson with it at the top of the key against the man-to-man pressure.

605
00:29:51,580 --> 00:29:53,380
 Yo-yos with the basketball against Robertson.

606
00:29:54,260 --> 00:29:55,060
 Tries to go right.

607
00:29:55,140 --> 00:29:56,640
 Can't find to get rid of it to Jones.

608
00:29:56,780 --> 00:29:57,900
 Jones hands it off to Burnett.

609
00:29:58,320 --> 00:29:59,260
 Burnett in the paint.

610
00:29:59,380 --> 00:30:00,040
 Can't get rid of it.

611
00:30:00,100 --> 00:30:00,740
 Now swings it.

612
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,100
 Ball on the way for three.

613
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:02,480
 Short.

614
00:30:02,580 --> 00:30:03,000
 No good.

615
00:30:03,540 --> 00:30:04,960
 Rebound taken by the Wildcats.

616
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,080
 They want to throw it down the floor.

617
00:30:06,500 --> 00:30:07,440
 Pearson intercepts it.

618
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,560
 He's done that a lot in his life on both sides.

619
00:30:09,900 --> 00:30:10,640
 Basketball and football.

620
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,720
 What a scoop pass in there to Jones who laid it in.

621
00:30:14,340 --> 00:30:15,740
 Beautiful play there by Pearson.

622
00:30:16,780 --> 00:30:17,840
 Great job by Pearson.

623
00:30:17,980 --> 00:30:20,200
 Not only to get the steal, but to bring it on down.

624
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,020
 Find the lane.

625
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,260
 And find his man right underneath the basket.

626
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:23,960
 Beautiful job.

627
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,080
 Simmons, who is the leading scorer with eight points, runs the point.

628
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:28,080
 Horn set.

629
00:30:28,180 --> 00:30:29,360
 They get it now inside.

630
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:30,460
 Nice look right there.

631
00:30:30,540 --> 00:30:30,940
 Laid it up.

632
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:31,460
 Put it in.

633
00:30:31,900 --> 00:30:32,540
 That's the knock.

634
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,720
 They run to a little high-low.

635
00:30:34,460 --> 00:30:37,100
 That's a simple old-fashioned play where one catches it high

636
00:30:37,100 --> 00:30:39,260
 and the other one breaks to the basket and is wide open.

637
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,200
 Tied at 16.

638
00:30:42,380 --> 00:30:43,600
 Pearson to Burnett.

639
00:30:44,300 --> 00:30:45,300
 Burnett, top of the key.

640
00:30:45,420 --> 00:30:46,260
 Back over to Pearson.

641
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,580
 Pearson lobs it to Green.

642
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,300
 He has a mouse in the house.

643
00:30:49,460 --> 00:30:50,080
 Backs him down.

644
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:51,020
 He's going to call the charge.

645
00:30:51,140 --> 00:30:51,820
 That's the right call.

646
00:30:52,420 --> 00:30:53,180
 I don't know.

647
00:30:53,820 --> 00:30:56,480
 And the reason why is the defender was still moving his feet.

648
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:57,280
 It wasn't established.

649
00:30:57,620 --> 00:30:59,880
 It looked funky because Kavante leaned in.

650
00:31:01,220 --> 00:31:03,800
 That's why I'd call it on Kavante because he leaned in.

651
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,180
 He leaned in a little bit, but the defender did not have established position.

652
00:31:07,420 --> 00:31:08,840
 So it's like it could have gone either way.

653
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:09,800
 There was contact.

654
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,820
 You know, Kavante got the short end of that one.

655
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:12,780
 Probably earned it.

656
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,260
 Good win up the floor and a whistle away from the basket.

657
00:31:20,260 --> 00:31:20,820
 That's fat.

658
00:31:20,900 --> 00:31:22,260
 I can tell you multiple subs coming in.

659
00:31:25,260 --> 00:31:26,660
 Offensive foul against Tarrant.

660
00:31:29,740 --> 00:31:31,880
 That's going to go against Caldwell for Holden.

661
00:31:32,980 --> 00:31:35,200
 And the official went over to explain to him, and he nodded and said,

662
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:35,760
 he said, I see.

663
00:31:35,860 --> 00:31:36,240
 I understand.

664
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,660
 Caldwell has been trying to establish the post position.

665
00:31:39,820 --> 00:31:43,320
 He's been wrapping that arm around the guy, the defender's hip,

666
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,540
 and really getting an unfair advantage.

667
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,260
 So it was a great call by the official.

668
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,940
 I saw it several times, and he just blew the whistle this time around.

669
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,300
 Irons will hand it off for Florence to Payne.

670
00:31:53,660 --> 00:31:54,720
 Payne in the lane.

671
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:55,700
 Kicked it in the corner.

672
00:31:55,900 --> 00:31:57,220
 Three on the way by Jones.

673
00:31:57,300 --> 00:31:57,760
 It's good.

674
00:31:58,960 --> 00:31:59,800
 Taylor Jones.

675
00:32:02,620 --> 00:32:03,380
 Drinks the three.

676
00:32:03,380 --> 00:32:06,900
 He has six on the day, and Florence now leads it 19-16.

677
00:32:07,580 --> 00:32:10,360
 Give the assist to Payne, who's not had his shot early on,

678
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:12,140
 so he started doing it with a pass.

679
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:14,640
 Falcons the man-to-man defense.

680
00:32:15,220 --> 00:32:16,040
 Goodwin has it.

681
00:32:16,820 --> 00:32:18,180
 Those green sneaker zone.

682
00:32:18,260 --> 00:32:18,920
 He stands out.

683
00:32:19,020 --> 00:32:19,780
 Got it to Robertson.

684
00:32:19,820 --> 00:32:20,540
 Nearly lost it.

685
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:21,180
 Still lost it.

686
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,080
 Stolen away by Payne.

687
00:32:22,420 --> 00:32:23,380
 Quick hands by Payne.

688
00:32:23,460 --> 00:32:24,360
 Payne, one on two.

689
00:32:24,740 --> 00:32:25,360
 Doesn't matter.

690
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:26,500
 Euro step, one on three.

691
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:26,980
 Laid it up.

692
00:32:27,020 --> 00:32:27,820
 Oh, it wouldn't go.

693
00:32:28,220 --> 00:32:30,480
 He did everything right, but it would not go through the hoop.

694
00:32:30,900 --> 00:32:33,060
 Rebound taken by the Wildcats.

695
00:32:33,060 --> 00:32:34,680
 And he's probably asking himself,

696
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,420
 what do I need to do to get a bucket here?

697
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:37,760
 That was unfortunate.

698
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,240
 That was definitely one of those balls that he usually has in there.

699
00:32:41,580 --> 00:32:42,360
 Goodwin from 12.

700
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,020
 Backed it down and shoots it in.

701
00:32:46,340 --> 00:32:48,780
 Tell you what, this is a fun little team from 10.

702
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,180
 They're going to be a handful in 4A.

703
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:52,680
 19-18.

704
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,060
 Florence with a one-point lead.

705
00:32:56,340 --> 00:32:57,140
 Pearson to Payne.

706
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:57,660
 Out top.

707
00:32:57,860 --> 00:32:58,340
 Play catch.

708
00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:59,120
 In the corner again.

709
00:32:59,180 --> 00:32:59,820
 I go to Jones.

710
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:00,820
 He goes hard to the basket.

711
00:33:00,940 --> 00:33:01,460
 Missed the layup.

712
00:33:01,540 --> 00:33:02,180
 Got the rebound.

713
00:33:02,580 --> 00:33:03,300
 Kicked it back out.

714
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,040
 Payne didn't take the shot there.

715
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:05,460
 Got hit.

716
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:05,960
 No call.

717
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:06,920
 Spins away.

718
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,080
 Put it back outside.

719
00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:09,280
 In the lane.

720
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,100
 Roy kicked it out.

721
00:33:10,220 --> 00:33:11,200
 Jones open for three.

722
00:33:11,380 --> 00:33:11,840
 Put it up.

723
00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:12,340
 Won't go.

724
00:33:12,740 --> 00:33:13,760
 Rebound taken by Payne.

725
00:33:14,220 --> 00:33:15,180
 Florence resets.

726
00:33:15,820 --> 00:33:16,420
 Pearson now.

727
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:17,280
 Yo-Yo's with it.

728
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:18,300
 Step back.

729
00:33:18,380 --> 00:33:19,420
 Won't take it in the corner.

730
00:33:19,620 --> 00:33:20,480
 Payne steps around.

731
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:21,420
 Can't get the shot off.

732
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,020
 Bounce pass inside.

733
00:33:23,460 --> 00:33:24,700
 Jones lost it.

734
00:33:25,300 --> 00:33:26,020
 Stolen away.

735
00:33:26,020 --> 00:33:28,400
 And Mike.

736
00:33:28,780 --> 00:33:30,280
 First time I've seen this in a while.

737
00:33:30,460 --> 00:33:32,600
 But the Falcons didn't want to take the shot.

738
00:33:33,260 --> 00:33:34,040
 Had some looks.

739
00:33:34,340 --> 00:33:34,600
 And say.

740
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:35,660
 I got cold.

741
00:33:35,780 --> 00:33:36,300
 I don't want to take the shot.

742
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:37,100
 You got to keep shooting.

743
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:38,160
 Absolutely.

744
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:39,120
 And you know.

745
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:40,620
 Just going to highlight.

746
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,300
 There was an offensive rebound.

747
00:33:42,460 --> 00:33:43,480
 On the low block there.

748
00:33:43,740 --> 00:33:43,940
 Yeah.

749
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,160
 There were two defenders in the way.

750
00:33:45,220 --> 00:33:46,120
 But you take that up.

751
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,200
 You're three feet away from the basket.

752
00:33:48,300 --> 00:33:50,180
 You take that up 100% of the time.

753
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:52,760
 Florence leads it by one.

754
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:54,260
 Wildcats will have the basketball.

755
00:33:56,020 --> 00:33:58,540
 This Wildcat defense has been good.

756
00:33:58,600 --> 00:33:59,180
 And there's a steal.

757
00:33:59,260 --> 00:33:59,920
 And there's a run out.

758
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,260
 And Kevante by himself.

759
00:34:01,540 --> 00:34:02,400
 He'll miss the dunk.

760
00:34:02,860 --> 00:34:03,780
 Roy got the rebound.

761
00:34:03,900 --> 00:34:04,300
 Put it up.

762
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:05,880
 I love the play by Roy right there.

763
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,920
 Cage Roy did not wait and assume.

764
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,920
 That says so much about Cage Roy right there, Mike.

765
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:12,500
 Yeah.

766
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,300
 That was a great job as a trailer to do what you need to do.

767
00:34:16,420 --> 00:34:16,820
 You know.

768
00:34:16,820 --> 00:34:17,640
 To help your team.

769
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:18,000
 Yeah.

770
00:34:18,060 --> 00:34:18,980
 In a run out like that.

771
00:34:19,020 --> 00:34:19,800
 It looks real easy.

772
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,280
 And it could be very easy to be a spectator.

773
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,060
 But Cage Roy still playing the game.

774
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:24,640
 Still competing.

775
00:34:24,860 --> 00:34:25,320
 Great job.

776
00:34:26,020 --> 00:34:28,120
 Goodwin spins down to the baseline.

777
00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:28,720
 Missed the shot.

778
00:34:28,820 --> 00:34:29,520
 Rebound by Pearson.

779
00:34:29,940 --> 00:34:31,160
 Pearson outlet to Payne.

780
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:32,480
 Payne looks over his shoulder.

781
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,000
 Goes up.

782
00:34:33,060 --> 00:34:33,440
 Laid it up.

783
00:34:33,500 --> 00:34:34,140
 Put it in.

784
00:34:34,260 --> 00:34:35,280
 Got a knee that up there.

785
00:34:35,700 --> 00:34:38,140
 That's his first basket of the day at the 418 mark.

786
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,240
 Florence leads it now.

787
00:34:39,620 --> 00:34:40,420
 23-18.

788
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,640
 The largest lead of the day for the Falcons at five.

789
00:34:42,780 --> 00:34:48,200
 If you told me a quarter or a half into this game that Jayshod and Jayceon wouldn't have a score,

790
00:34:48,340 --> 00:34:49,440
 I'd tell you that you're crazy.

791
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,100
 But sure enough, it's been one of those games for the Falcons.

792
00:34:52,180 --> 00:34:53,200
 But the Falcons have responded.

793
00:34:53,740 --> 00:34:55,940
 Simmons split a triple team but missed the layup.

794
00:34:56,380 --> 00:34:57,060
 Pearson rebound.

795
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:57,800
 Outlet pass.

796
00:34:57,900 --> 00:34:58,560
 Threw it over the head.

797
00:34:58,940 --> 00:34:59,660
 Too strong.

798
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:00,160
 Turnover.

799
00:35:01,940 --> 00:35:03,240
 Had a good thought there.

800
00:35:03,580 --> 00:35:04,220
 Couldn't get it.

801
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:06,480
 Simmons looked over at me.

802
00:35:06,540 --> 00:35:07,780
 He was cleaning his hands off.

803
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,260
 Got a little wry smile about him.

804
00:35:10,300 --> 00:35:11,300
 He is a player.

805
00:35:12,740 --> 00:35:13,520
 Yeah, he certainly is.

806
00:35:13,900 --> 00:35:17,140
 You can tell those players that have unlimited amounts of confidence.

807
00:35:17,420 --> 00:35:18,680
 He's definitely one of those.

808
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:21,960
 Wildcats with the basketball.

809
00:35:22,140 --> 00:35:23,280
 Trailing Florence by five.

810
00:35:23,380 --> 00:35:24,680
 We'll bring it up against the man-to-man pressure.

811
00:35:24,860 --> 00:35:26,020
 Goodwin got a step in the lane.

812
00:35:26,140 --> 00:35:26,840
 Lost it going up.

813
00:35:26,900 --> 00:35:27,620
 Should go back to Florence.

814
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:28,160
 And it does.

815
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,660
 And right now, maybe a little fatigue on this Tarrant team.

816
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,420
 They've only gone about six deep.

817
00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:35,000
 And Florence gone about nine or ten deep.

818
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:39,240
 And they've only gone six deep out of, you know, one of those foul situations.

819
00:35:39,240 --> 00:35:41,000
 It wasn't because they really wanted to.

820
00:35:41,100 --> 00:35:42,140
 It was out of necessity.

821
00:35:42,420 --> 00:35:45,200
 So, you know, maybe not the deepest team we've seen.

822
00:35:45,340 --> 00:35:50,260
 But early on, the Falcons have pretty much worn them pretty thin.

823
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:52,460
 Payne, seven-footer, would not go.

824
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:53,760
 But Green got the rebound.

825
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:54,980
 But he stepped on the baseline.

826
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,080
 Turnover back to Tarrant.

827
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,820
 Great job by Jaden Irons.

828
00:35:58,920 --> 00:35:59,980
 Nice hustle play there.

829
00:36:00,060 --> 00:36:01,640
 Unfortunately, he stepped on that baseline.

830
00:36:02,240 --> 00:36:03,520
 Turning it back over to Tarrant.

831
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,000
 23-18.

832
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:10,960
 Florence leads it by five.

833
00:36:12,020 --> 00:36:13,460
 Here come the Wildcats with it.

834
00:36:13,980 --> 00:36:15,220
 With 3.17 to go.

835
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,780
 Choppy game would be one way to put it.

836
00:36:17,820 --> 00:36:18,700
 Just not really fluid.

837
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:20,740
 Florence has not shot it well early on.

838
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:21,620
 That's a move.

839
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:22,500
 And hand off screen.

840
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:23,200
 You've got to set.

841
00:36:24,700 --> 00:36:27,400
 And, you know, Mike, the way that games are officiated,

842
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,860
 here may be different than they're officiated in Birmingham.

843
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:31,100
 I see that sometimes.

844
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,880
 Things they may get rid of, get away with there,

845
00:36:33,940 --> 00:36:34,780
 they can't get away with here.

846
00:36:35,020 --> 00:36:36,120
 We see that all the time.

847
00:36:36,180 --> 00:36:37,620
 We travel over to the Huntsville area.

848
00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:39,000
 They officiate it one way.

849
00:36:39,260 --> 00:36:41,560
 Down the Birmingham area is completely different.

850
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,600
 You know, and we see that in football as well.

851
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,200
 It's just points of emphasis for certain areas, I guess.

852
00:36:46,340 --> 00:36:47,380
 I did like the call.

853
00:36:47,460 --> 00:36:49,240
 I thought it was the right call on the dribble handoff.

854
00:36:49,300 --> 00:36:51,100
 He never stopped and moving the screen.

855
00:36:51,420 --> 00:36:53,920
 Lawrence with the basketball lead now by five.

856
00:36:54,980 --> 00:36:55,760
 Pearson has it.

857
00:36:55,820 --> 00:36:56,940
 He'll try the three.

858
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:58,220
 He'll make the three.

859
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,820
 Jay Shod, who has gotten to where he quietly makes those points.

860
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:04,600
 Drains the three.

861
00:37:04,740 --> 00:37:07,520
 The largest lead of the day at eight for Florence, 26-18.

862
00:37:08,260 --> 00:37:08,880
 They lob it up.

863
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:09,860
 Oh, and got away with one.

864
00:37:09,940 --> 00:37:10,360
 It's Knox.

865
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:11,520
 And he goes up and lays it in.

866
00:37:11,860 --> 00:37:13,980
 Check on Irons, who got hit in the face.

867
00:37:14,500 --> 00:37:17,240
 I think timeout taken on the floor as well.

868
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:18,080
 We'll do the same.

869
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,020
 Florence leads at 26-20.

870
00:37:20,380 --> 00:37:21,440
 This is Falcon basketball.

871
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:22,700
 We're back in one minute.

872
00:37:23,340 --> 00:37:27,740

880
00:37:59,260 --> 00:38:01,900
 This is Miranda Haddock with the Florence Education Foundation.

881
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,320

 We want to wish Coach Burleson and the entire Falcon basketball team good luck this season.

886
00:38:24,620 --> 00:38:29,800
 2.36 to go in the half.

887
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,680
 Florence leads at 26-20 over the Tarrant Wildcats out of Birmingham.

888
00:38:33,900 --> 00:38:35,580
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson on the call.

889
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:42,860
 The Wildcats come in here today with Coach Groom as their head coach.

890
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,300
 And they played last night or scheduled to play Dora.

891
00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:50,140
 I never saw if that game was played for sure.

892
00:38:50,140 --> 00:38:53,980
 A lot of games were canceled due to potential severe weather last night.

893
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,740
 But they were scheduled to play last night and then make the long trip up to Florence tonight.

894
00:38:57,820 --> 00:39:00,560
 About a two-hour trip plus to come play this one.

895
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:02,960
 Florence up by six with the basketball.

896
00:39:03,140 --> 00:39:06,640
 Going right to left as you listen to this on your home for Falcon basketball.

897
00:39:06,780 --> 00:39:07,660
 93-9 to score.

898
00:39:07,900 --> 00:39:10,180
 Roy Green Burnett.

899
00:39:10,420 --> 00:39:11,700
 Crossover dribble by Burnett.

900
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:12,680
 Pulls it back out.

901
00:39:13,100 --> 00:39:14,500
 Back to Roy at the top of the key.

902
00:39:14,940 --> 00:39:15,700
 Roy hands it off.

903
00:39:15,780 --> 00:39:16,500
 Now to Skipworth.

904
00:39:16,940 --> 00:39:17,960
 Skipworth found the lane.

905
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,120
 Kicked it back out to Roy.

906
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:20,380
 Roy found the lane.

907
00:39:20,500 --> 00:39:20,920
 Laid it up.

908
00:39:20,980 --> 00:39:21,520
 And was fouled.

909
00:39:22,140 --> 00:39:25,260
 That's nice basketball between Roy and Skipworth there off the bench.

910
00:39:25,700 --> 00:39:26,620
 Yeah, that was a great job.

911
00:39:26,720 --> 00:39:29,660
 You know, just being able to be unselfish in that situation.

912
00:39:29,660 --> 00:39:31,660
 He had a step towards the lane.

913
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,500
 The lane got filled pretty quick.

914
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:34,780
 Being able to kick it out.

915
00:39:34,860 --> 00:39:37,000
 Cage Roy went around the defender.

916
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:37,980
 Found the nice lane.

917
00:39:38,100 --> 00:39:38,820
 Wound up getting hit.

918
00:39:39,420 --> 00:39:40,740
 And he's going to be shooting two here.

919
00:39:42,720 --> 00:39:43,440
 Cage Roy.

920
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,220
 6'3", sophomore is what I have him listed as.

921
00:39:47,780 --> 00:39:48,860
 Go to the line to shoot two.

922
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,320
 And he has all the potential in the world.

923
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,300
 He's still a young pup.

924
00:39:53,500 --> 00:39:53,940
 You know what I mean?

925
00:39:53,940 --> 00:39:58,000
 As being a sophomore, he's got a lot of growing ahead of him.

926
00:39:58,180 --> 00:40:00,040
 But you're seeing it as the season's gone on.

927
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:04,540
 Just his poise and his mentality as a season has, you know, matured.

928
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:05,820
 And so has he.

929
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:06,940
 He makes the first.

930
00:40:07,020 --> 00:40:07,780
 He makes the second.

931
00:40:07,940 --> 00:40:08,640
 Good-looking shot.

932
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,500
 I would not be surprised if Cage Roy don't grow a couple more inches either.

933
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,080
 And there he is knocking the ball away and stolen away.

934
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,320
 Ball on the floor, though, and saved by the Wildcats.

935
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:18,260
 Now they've got numbers.

936
00:40:18,660 --> 00:40:19,400
 Deep three on the way.

937
00:40:19,460 --> 00:40:19,940
 No good.

938
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,880
 Tipped around by Pearson who tried to get the rebound and does.

939
00:40:23,240 --> 00:40:23,900
 Out fights it.

940
00:40:23,980 --> 00:40:25,040
 Now it throws a deep pass.

941
00:40:25,100 --> 00:40:25,880
 Can you get it to Burnett?

942
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,280
 Oh, it's stolen away.

943
00:40:27,780 --> 00:40:29,540
 Great hustle there by both teams.

944
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,700
 Goodwin now is fouled in backcourt.

945
00:40:32,180 --> 00:40:35,280
 That is tremendous, tremendous hustle by Goodwin.

946
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:36,900
 That's tremendous hustle by the Falcons.

947
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:38,220
 I love that.

948
00:40:38,300 --> 00:40:39,820
 These two teams getting after it right now.

949
00:40:39,940 --> 00:40:41,440
 And really, it was started by Tarrant.

950
00:40:41,780 --> 00:40:45,480
 Dominic Riggs dove after a ball right here in front of us.

951
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,660
 Created a play there, you know, where it looked like Simmons took a shot.

952
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:56,060
 Falcons responded with a rebound, came down, and people were diving all over the court for that loose ball.

953
00:40:56,060 --> 00:40:58,920
 That was just a beautiful hustle that you can't replicate.

954
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,760
 You know, you could tell that these players are into it.

955
00:41:02,660 --> 00:41:03,580
 Goodwin gets it back.

956
00:41:04,300 --> 00:41:05,260
 Robertson, he's got the switch.

957
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,720
 He's got green on him, but he gets rid of it, swings it around to the left wing.

958
00:41:08,820 --> 00:41:09,800
 They take a deep three.

959
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,300
 No good.

960
00:41:10,380 --> 00:41:11,840
 And Roy of Florence gets the rebound.

961
00:41:11,980 --> 00:41:14,360
 Cage Roy brings it up to four with a white headband on.

962
00:41:14,720 --> 00:41:15,380
 Where's number four?

963
00:41:15,500 --> 00:41:16,200
 Crossover dribble.

964
00:41:16,460 --> 00:41:17,200
 Kicked it in the corner.

965
00:41:17,380 --> 00:41:18,000
 Burnett three.

966
00:41:18,140 --> 00:41:19,660
 He found an open look, but it's back for him.

967
00:41:19,700 --> 00:41:20,000
 No good.

968
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:21,440
 Rebound taken by Florence.

969
00:41:21,540 --> 00:41:22,580
 Another three by Roy.

970
00:41:22,740 --> 00:41:23,480
 Out and wall.

971
00:41:23,620 --> 00:41:23,900
 Go.

972
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:25,080
 Bounced in.

973
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:26,680
 Got the good look.

974
00:41:26,940 --> 00:41:30,800
 And Roy right now leading Florence with nine points off the bench.

975
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,320
 And Florence with a 31-20 lead with a minute to go in the half.

976
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:39,380
 Left wing in the corner.

977
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:40,460
 Burnett knocked it away.

978
00:41:40,740 --> 00:41:43,760
 It'll stay with the Wildcats.

979
00:41:44,020 --> 00:41:47,960
 Nice active hands there by Burnett on defense, being able to slap that ball away.

980
00:41:48,540 --> 00:41:51,340
 It is Tarrant Ball with 51 seconds left.

981
00:41:51,460 --> 00:41:53,920
 We've got some guys coming on in.

982
00:41:54,020 --> 00:41:55,760
 It would take JC on, came in for Skipworth.

983
00:41:57,340 --> 00:41:58,620
 Wildcats still with the basketball.

984
00:41:58,860 --> 00:41:59,880
 Nearly went back, Corbin.

985
00:41:59,960 --> 00:42:01,580
 Incredible play by Goodwin, who saved it.

986
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,260
 Goes to Coastal Terrells and laid it in.

987
00:42:03,740 --> 00:42:07,760
 That is an incredible play, an athletic play there by Tristan Goodwin.

988
00:42:08,140 --> 00:42:10,100
 And he's not the tallest guy that we've seen,

989
00:42:10,180 --> 00:42:13,620
 but being able to use his body in such a way, you know,

990
00:42:13,660 --> 00:42:15,220
 he plays bigger than he is on the court.

991
00:42:17,940 --> 00:42:19,460
 38.3 on the clock.

992
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,960
 A foul called against the Wildcats.

993
00:42:23,420 --> 00:42:24,680
 I think Riggs picked up that one.

994
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,480
 So Florence inbounded on the sideline.

995
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,560
 The next foul will be free throws for Florence, but we're under a minute to go.

996
00:42:32,060 --> 00:42:33,580
 Pearson had knocked away, stolen away.

997
00:42:34,020 --> 00:42:37,060
 Here comes Robertson with it, laid it up, put it in.

998
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,100
 That was Knox with the steal, and lead trimmed down to seven.

999
00:42:43,660 --> 00:42:45,060
 Florence will play for the last shot.

1000
00:42:46,820 --> 00:42:49,360
 I'll say this Tarrant team has frustrated the Falcons,

1001
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,480
 definitely on the offensive end of the ball,

1002
00:42:51,700 --> 00:42:53,660
 creating a lot of turnovers and unforced errors.

1003
00:42:54,500 --> 00:42:55,780
 Payne has it with 10.

1004
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:57,560
 Payne to Roy.

1005
00:42:58,140 --> 00:42:59,040
 Burnett on the wing.

1006
00:42:59,220 --> 00:43:01,140
 Burnett drives baseline, lost it.

1007
00:43:01,460 --> 00:43:03,300
 Ball on the floor, taken away by the Wildcats.

1008
00:43:03,300 --> 00:43:04,380
 The quickness is there.

1009
00:43:04,460 --> 00:43:06,020
 With one second, they shoot it.

1010
00:43:06,100 --> 00:43:07,340
 Nope, can't get the shot off.

1011
00:43:07,720 --> 00:43:08,560
 And that'll do it.

1012
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,680
 It was a fun up and down the floor, half.

1013
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:16,460
 And after one half of basketball, Florence leads this talented Tarrant team.

1014
00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:17,900
 31-24.

1015
00:43:18,140 --> 00:43:19,360

 Hi, I'm Dr. Brady Citizen with Treehouse Children's Dentistry.

1036
00:45:05,500 --> 00:45:10,940
 Our teens in Tuscumbia, Killen, and Madison are so excited to welcome you and your family to our treehouse.

1037
00:45:11,100 --> 00:45:14,120
 We know that choosing a dental home can be a stressful experience.

1038
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:19,660
 That's why at Treehouse Children's Dentistry, we've created an environment that kids and parents love.

1039
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:25,740
 Our team is experienced in caring for every child, from infants to teenagers to children with special needs.

1040
00:45:25,740 --> 00:45:30,980
 Call one of our three locations today or visit our website at treehousedentist.com.

1041
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:36,940
 We're so excited to see you soon at Treehouse Children's Dentistry, a branch of Singing River Dentistry.

1042
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:52,720
 Welcome back to the TNT Fireworks Halftime Show, where Florence leads Tarrant, 3124 of the Wildcats in Birmingham,

1043
00:45:52,940 --> 00:45:55,080
 making the trek to the northwest Alabama area.

1044
00:45:55,480 --> 00:46:04,240
 Mike, can you imagine, Mike Albertson with me here, Mike, can you imagine these young men from Tarrant getting a chance to come up here and play against the 7A program?

1045
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:05,420
 It's a long trip.

1046
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,760
 I mean, this one probably was circling on their calendar.

1047
00:46:08,180 --> 00:46:15,520
 Hey, we're going to Florence High School, the 7A runner-up from last year, and we're going to play on their home floor in this nice arena.

1048
00:46:15,720 --> 00:46:17,960
 It's got to be something those kids really look forward to.

1049
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:19,000
 Yeah, absolutely.

1050
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:25,900
 You know, any time that you're able to go on some of those road trips with your buddies, you know, that's something special in and of itself.

1051
00:46:25,980 --> 00:46:32,200
 But to play a team of Florence's caliber, especially when you're a 4A team, it's definitely one of those special moments.

1052
00:46:32,380 --> 00:46:36,720
 You know, you guys are going to be – those guys are going to be talking about this game for years to come.

1053
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,880
 Florence leads it at the half, 3124.

1054
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,060
 Our stats brought to us by our good friends at Chick-fil-A.

1055
00:46:43,180 --> 00:46:47,640
 They're open tonight, and they've got the commemorative cups out now you can go by.

1056
00:46:47,740 --> 00:46:49,520
 So go by and tell them if KJ sent you that way.

1057
00:46:49,900 --> 00:46:50,860
 Mike Albertson, take it away.

1058
00:46:51,220 --> 00:46:51,900
 Thanks, KJ.

1059
00:46:52,460 --> 00:46:56,560
 Leading the way for Tarrant is Darian Knox with eight points.

1060
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,320
 We also had Jalen Simmons with eight.

1061
00:46:58,720 --> 00:47:00,120
 Tristan Goodwin with six points.

1062
00:47:00,220 --> 00:47:03,300
 And Latrell Robertson had two points in that first half.

1063
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,240
 Leading the way for the Falcons, Kate Roy with nine points.

1064
00:47:06,300 --> 00:47:08,920
 We had Jalen James with six.

1065
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:10,460
 We got J.C. On Payne with two.

1066
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:11,820
 J. Shaw Pearson with three.

1067
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:13,900
 Tamari and Skipworth with three points.

1068
00:47:13,980 --> 00:47:15,520
 Zylan Burnett with three points.

1069
00:47:15,780 --> 00:47:17,580
 And Kevonte Green with five.

1070
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,980
 Falcons up by seven right now, and we'll try to hang on to this one.

1071
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:28,060
 Falcons then turn back to area play starting Tuesday night at home against James Clemens.

1072
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:34,400
 Will be preempted by Alabama basketball on that one on Tuesday night.

1073
00:47:34,720 --> 00:47:38,000
 But you can come out and watch the Falcons take on the Jets of James Clemens,

1074
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,400
 who probably are the best team in the region.

1075
00:47:41,240 --> 00:47:42,800
 And so it'll be a big matchup.

1076
00:47:42,980 --> 00:47:44,220
 Looking forward to that one.

1077
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:48,900
 And then Friday night, the Falcons go to Madison to take on the Patriots of Bob Jones.

1078
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:52,860
 And Mike and I will be with you on that one here on 93.9 The Score.

1079
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:56,400
 So we look forward to those matchups coming up next week as well.

1080
00:47:56,400 --> 00:48:00,200
 And, of course, NFL football here on 93.9 The Score throughout the weekend.

1081
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:01,300
 It's that long weekend.

1082
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:02,880
 What a weekend it is.

1083
00:48:03,340 --> 00:48:07,400
 If nothing else, the NFL teams have got to be glad they don't have to play the Indiana Hoosiers.

1084
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:09,080
 Wouldn't you think that would be a good statement, right?

1085
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:11,500
 I think that's about right.

1086
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,340
 You know, you talk about a team that makes very few mistakes.

1087
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,900
 They do a lot of the little things well and play quite well as a team.

1088
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:20,140
 They look pretty unstoppable.

1089
00:48:20,580 --> 00:48:24,000
 But, you know, as Miami's gone on through the season, they've gotten stronger.

1090
00:48:24,260 --> 00:48:26,900
 And, you know, you see that with their physicality and everything.

1091
00:48:27,340 --> 00:48:28,900
 That's going to be a matchup for the ages.

1092
00:48:29,060 --> 00:48:33,720
 It's one of those that I'm really excited about this national championship game.

1093
00:48:34,420 --> 00:48:39,300
 Florence baseball coach, Coach Evans, I see across the way with his kids walking up the steps, if I'm not mistaken.

1094
00:48:40,020 --> 00:48:42,780
 Here at the half where Florence leads it 31-24.

1095
00:48:43,300 --> 00:48:47,720
 More from the TNT Fireworks Halftime Show continues after this one-minute timeout.

1096
00:48:50,240 --> 00:48:54,360
 Have you ever seen those halftime scholarships where you have to nail a 40-yard field goal?

1097
00:48:55,060 --> 00:48:56,300
 Yeah, this isn't that.

1098
00:48:56,300 --> 00:49:00,520
 I didn't have to write a long essay or audition or make a half-court shot.

1099
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:07,000
 I just had to open a bank independent account, use my debit card, sign up for online banking, and have a positive balance.

1100
00:49:07,140 --> 00:49:07,700
 That's it.

1101
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,660
 A 20% scholarship to UNA.

1102
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:15,340
 When bank independent invests in students like me, they're investing in all of us and the future of our community.

1103
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:16,240
 Bank independent.

1104
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:17,900
 We're invested in your future.

1105
00:49:18,100 --> 00:49:19,000
 Member FDIC.

1106
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:24,400
 No matter the size of your team or your fan crew, Boss Pizza's got you covered.

1107
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:29,220
 We're talking wings, salads, and the one and only Monster Pizza.

1108
00:49:29,860 --> 00:49:33,560
 Perfect for team dinners, watch parties, or post-game celebrations.

1109
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:35,720
 Big plays deserve big flavor.

1110
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:37,640
 And nobody delivers like lost pizza.

1111
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:40,880
 Feed the team, feel the fans.

1112
00:49:41,380 --> 00:49:42,520
 Go big with lost pizza.

1113
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,060
 The voice of the Florence High School Falcons.

1114
00:49:49,060 --> 00:49:50,220
 WYTK-FM.

1115
00:49:50,740 --> 00:50:07,800
 Back here at the coffee gym on Florence Middle School, I almost said.

1116
00:50:08,140 --> 00:50:09,260
 Swim age a little bit there.

1117
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,660
 Florence leads at 31-24 here at the coffee gym.

1118
00:50:12,780 --> 00:50:14,920
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson with you.

1119
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,740
 Mike, obviously, right now, the NFL playoffs starting today.

1120
00:50:19,900 --> 00:50:25,660
 The big one tonight, the Bears and the Packers playing in Chicago in the snow.

1121
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:28,240
 You got to lean on that one by any chance?

1122
00:50:28,940 --> 00:50:35,540
 You know, when it comes to that first-round playoff game, you know, you kind of want to lean on the home field.

1123
00:50:35,540 --> 00:50:41,060
 You know, and especially being in Chicago, cold, possibly snowy, all that other stuff.

1124
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:46,080
 That shouldn't matter to Green Bay, but in Chicago, that's just a different type place to play.

1125
00:50:47,020 --> 00:50:50,780
 I mean, look, this is about as evenly matched as you can get.

1126
00:50:51,240 --> 00:50:55,020
 I do like Jordan Love, but I think I'm going to take the Bears on this one.

1127
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:55,940
 Let me ask you this.

1128
00:50:56,680 --> 00:51:04,360
 Have you ever seen the NFL where their playoffs, you could just kick a team out of the hat and any of them could win it?

1129
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:05,800
 I mean, it's unbelievable.

1130
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:06,640
 There's not a favorite.

1131
00:51:07,500 --> 00:51:08,180
 Not really.

1132
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:08,920
 You know what?

1133
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:17,480
 That's what they've searched for for years is that sort of parody in the NFL where any given Sunday, you know, that's where the name was coined.

1134
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:18,100
 You know what I mean?

1135
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,920
 Any given Sunday, you go out there and a team can win.

1136
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:26,000
 So, the NFL got what it wanted, and, you know, you just throw a dart at the board at this point.

1137
00:51:26,140 --> 00:51:27,800
 You're going to be right most of the time.

1138
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,020
 Right now, the Rams lead the Panthers 20-17.

1139
00:51:31,020 --> 00:51:33,780
 Panthers trying to pull an upset at home.

1140
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,040
 That would be a huge win.

1141
00:51:36,100 --> 00:51:39,800
 I think the Rams, if anybody that might be a favorite, would be the team everybody talked about.

1142
00:51:39,940 --> 00:51:42,140
 And if the Panthers beat them, it's really wide open.

1143
00:51:42,660 --> 00:51:47,980
 So, I personally, pulling for the Broncos, Bo Nix, I think that would be a great story.

1144
00:51:48,460 --> 00:51:50,180
 But we'll see what happens in the NFL.

1145
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,960
 You'll hear all those games coming up here later this weekend on 9-3-9 to score.

1146
00:51:55,520 --> 00:52:01,880
 Tonight, don't forget, after our broadcast, Alabama basketball, as they get ready to play host to the Lunghorns of Texas.

1147
00:52:03,060 --> 00:52:04,320
 So, it should be fun with that one.

1148
00:52:04,700 --> 00:52:07,560
 Mike, as we get ready to start the second half, you're dealing with Burleson.

1149
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:08,840
 What is your message to your team?

1150
00:52:09,260 --> 00:52:12,740
 You know, I think, really, it's let's clean it up.

1151
00:52:13,140 --> 00:52:17,380
 I mean, really and truly, this Tarrant team has really frustrated the offense a little bit.

1152
00:52:17,420 --> 00:52:20,840
 A lot of unforced errors, a lot of turnovers there in the first half.

1153
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,520
 If we're able to clean it up a little bit, this is going to be a game of attrition.

1154
00:52:23,700 --> 00:52:30,320
 We're going to be able to beat this team just by the lack of depth that Tarrant has at this point.

1155
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,140
 They have a lot of great athletes, but they just don't have the numbers that we do.

1156
00:52:33,740 --> 00:52:38,660
 We match up quite well, and so, at the end, you know, it's going to be last man standing.

1157
00:52:38,780 --> 00:52:43,400
 I think it's going to be the Falcons here, especially with the seven-point lead going into the second quarter, or second half.

1158
00:52:44,060 --> 00:52:46,240
 These Falcons should outlast Tarrant.

1159
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:50,940
 Farns leads it 31-24 at the half.

1160
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,760
 I believe Tarrant will have the ball to start in the third quarter.

1161
00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:59,040
 They'll keep it right here as the TNT Fireworks Halftime Show comes to a close.

1162
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,960
 A big thank you to Kayla Pettis working the board tonight, our engineer.

1163
00:53:03,740 --> 00:53:11,480
 Hope you're enjoying this one on this January night, January 10th of 2026.

1164
00:53:13,860 --> 00:53:17,360
 The Wildcats will be going right to left in their Navy uniforms.

1165
00:53:17,580 --> 00:53:19,340
 White numbers, gold trim.

1166
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:21,280
 Florence in the home white with blue.

1167
00:53:23,100 --> 00:53:26,020
 Goodwin will have it in backcourt, picked up by Roy.

1168
00:53:27,020 --> 00:53:28,060
 He gets it across midcourt.

1169
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:28,900
 Here comes the trap.

1170
00:53:28,980 --> 00:53:32,180
 He dribbles out of it, gets rid of it to the corner to Robertson.

1171
00:53:32,500 --> 00:53:34,880
 Robertson up and under, 12-footer, won't go.

1172
00:53:34,980 --> 00:53:39,980
 And Roy had the rebound, knocked away by Robertson, who gave up a foot of height, kicks it back out.

1173
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:41,380
 Deep three, no good.

1174
00:53:41,700 --> 00:53:44,240
 Rebound by the smallest guy on the floor, Jayshod Pearson.

1175
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:46,540
 Pushes it up the floor to Payne.

1176
00:53:46,620 --> 00:53:47,580
 He'll pull for three.

1177
00:53:47,820 --> 00:53:48,520
 That one's good.

1178
00:53:48,620 --> 00:53:49,100
 Watch out.

1179
00:53:49,980 --> 00:53:52,100
 He needed that one after the first half.

1180
00:53:52,180 --> 00:53:53,500
 That's a good start for Florence.

1181
00:53:53,740 --> 00:53:59,960
 That's a great start for Florence, getting Jayshod going there, you know, hitting that three to start out the second half.

1182
00:54:00,500 --> 00:54:02,460
 You know, he might be ready to explode here.

1183
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:03,900
 Goodwin with it.

1184
00:54:03,980 --> 00:54:04,860
 Florence up by 10.

1185
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:07,160
 Falcons stay man-to-man.

1186
00:54:07,340 --> 00:54:10,860
 Goodwin swings around to Robertson now.

1187
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:12,180
 They run their motion offense.

1188
00:54:13,700 --> 00:54:14,980
 Falcons are really good.

1189
00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:15,960
 They play off.

1190
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,180
 They play the covers.

1191
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:20,060
 They hedge well is what you would say.

1192
00:54:20,500 --> 00:54:22,900
 This defense, that's one thing to stay with this Falcons team.

1193
00:54:22,980 --> 00:54:24,180
 They stayed pretty even.

1194
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:25,740
 Tough, too.

1195
00:54:25,820 --> 00:54:26,920
 Off the backboard, no good.

1196
00:54:27,300 --> 00:54:28,480
 What defense there by Roy.

1197
00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:29,400
 Florence with the rebound.

1198
00:54:29,580 --> 00:54:30,700
 Pearson pushes it.

1199
00:54:30,780 --> 00:54:31,920
 Payne three again.

1200
00:54:32,060 --> 00:54:32,720
 Yes, sir.

1201
00:54:32,720 --> 00:54:37,080
 He has eight, and he has six in the last 20 seconds.

1202
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:39,740
 37-24.

1203
00:54:41,980 --> 00:54:42,880
 Up the floor.

1204
00:54:43,500 --> 00:54:44,280
 Wildcats with it.

1205
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:45,360
 Goodwin.

1206
00:54:46,060 --> 00:54:47,280
 Pull up from 15.

1207
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:48,460
 That one won't go.

1208
00:54:48,580 --> 00:54:48,980
 Rebound.

1209
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:49,820
 Payne.

1210
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:51,220
 Payne looks to push it.

1211
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:51,880
 Up to Pearson.

1212
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:52,280
 Pearson.

1213
00:54:52,660 --> 00:54:53,280
 Crossover dribble.

1214
00:54:53,380 --> 00:54:54,240
 Lost it off his knee.

1215
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:55,360
 Saved by Roy to Pearson.

1216
00:54:55,940 --> 00:54:56,700
 Pearson looking.

1217
00:54:57,060 --> 00:54:58,200
 Cross court pass to Green.

1218
00:54:58,520 --> 00:54:59,260
 Kicked it to Payne.

1219
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,000
 That time he had three Wildcats come at him, so he gets rid of it.

1220
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:03,840
 Pearson had it poked away.

1221
00:55:04,180 --> 00:55:05,300
 It's a great steal by Goodwin.

1222
00:55:05,660 --> 00:55:07,600
 Goodwin on the other end goes up with it.

1223
00:55:07,700 --> 00:55:08,260
 Laid it in.

1224
00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,080
 Timeout taken by the Wildcats.

1225
00:55:13,240 --> 00:55:13,960
 We'll do the same.

1226
00:55:14,140 --> 00:55:15,540
 Florence leads it by 12.

1227
00:55:15,660 --> 00:55:16,780
 This is Falcon Basketball.

1228
00:55:16,860 --> 00:55:17,520
 We're back in 30.

1229
00:55:18,660 --> 00:55:22,080
 Irons Electric has been family-owned and operated for 65 years.

1230
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,440
 Irons Electric is deeply rooted in the Florence High School tradition

1231
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,000
 and is happy to be a part of many past projects,

1232
00:55:28,240 --> 00:55:30,420
 including the recently completed new band room.

1233
00:55:30,740 --> 00:55:34,560
 Irons Electric Company was voted the number one electrical contractor in 2023.

1234
00:55:35,340 --> 00:55:38,080
 Our professional team on staff and master electricians

1235
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,680
 provide the expertise to make sure your project is installed per code

1236
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:43,520
 to operate safely and flawlessly.

1237
00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:46,700
 From small residential jobs to large commercial projects,

1238
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:50,660
 call Irons Electric at 256-766-3870.

1239
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:53,280
 You won't be shocked by their reputation.

1240
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:02,260
 Six-floor to go in the third quarter.

1241
00:56:02,420 --> 00:56:05,420
 Florence leads it 37-26, an 11-point lead.

1242
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:10,440
 I think I said by 12, but it's an 11-point lead as we pick up after the timeout.

1243
00:56:10,540 --> 00:56:13,440
 Pearson going left or right up the floor as you listen to us.

1244
00:56:13,820 --> 00:56:15,660
 Keeps the ball in his hands at the free throw line.

1245
00:56:15,740 --> 00:56:16,660
 Kicks it out to Roy.

1246
00:56:17,140 --> 00:56:18,060
 Swings it around to Payne.

1247
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:19,040
 He's already hit two three-pointers.

1248
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:19,820
 Down on the box.

1249
00:56:20,220 --> 00:56:21,720
 Jones is called for the offensive foul.

1250
00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,480
 That's a good sale right there inside.

1251
00:56:24,180 --> 00:56:27,980
 That's twice that the Wildcats have sold that pretty well.

1252
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:32,240
 That's the right call there as far as a sell is concerned.

1253
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:35,040
 I mean, it's just any contact whatsoever.

1254
00:56:35,220 --> 00:56:36,500
 These guys are flopping instantly.

1255
00:56:36,720 --> 00:56:41,340
 And they're going to the floor hard, so it's making it look worse than it is for sure.

1256
00:56:42,300 --> 00:56:44,680
 You know, you don't see that sold as much, do you, Mike?

1257
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:46,720
 I mean, you just don't see it as much anymore.

1258
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,760
 Well, and they're selling it the right way.

1259
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:54,220
 Like, it's one of those you see in the NBA, and they flop, and it's gross.

1260
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:56,540
 These kids know what they're doing.

1261
00:56:56,720 --> 00:56:57,200
 Very legit.

1262
00:56:57,500 --> 00:56:58,200
 Well coached.

1263
00:56:59,820 --> 00:57:01,660
 Goodwin, who's been outstanding with the basketball.

1264
00:57:02,340 --> 00:57:03,340
 Gets in a turnover.

1265
00:57:03,580 --> 00:57:04,580
 He knows that moving screen.

1266
00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:06,860
 Consistently called.

1267
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:10,060
 That's tough, man.

1268
00:57:10,060 --> 00:57:10,760
 That one's tough there.

1269
00:57:10,980 --> 00:57:13,560
 There was no contact with any Falcons player, I didn't think.

1270
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:16,720
 Yeah, if there was, it was so marginal.

1271
00:57:16,940 --> 00:57:19,640
 I mean, I'm not a fan of that one.

1272
00:57:20,660 --> 00:57:22,120
 Payne within front court.

1273
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:23,220
 To Roy goes baseline.

1274
00:57:24,340 --> 00:57:25,100
 The up and under.

1275
00:57:25,300 --> 00:57:25,860
 Wouldn't go.

1276
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:30,980
 Rebound, yanked down, and saved in bounds by Knox, who was outstanding.

1277
00:57:31,180 --> 00:57:35,220
 Knox goes about 6'2", but he plays a little bit taller than that with long arms.

1278
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:36,660
 He's definitely got the length.

1279
00:57:36,900 --> 00:57:39,700
 You know, that wingspan is well beyond his height.

1280
00:57:41,300 --> 00:57:44,700
 Goodwin got the screen up top, and Burski ran through the screen.

1281
00:57:45,700 --> 00:57:55,720
 He, that's so, he leaned into that, and Burski threw the screen, and he flopped and threw himself into the ball handler.

1282
00:57:55,860 --> 00:57:58,980
 That was not, again, that one I'll say is a flop.

1283
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:02,100
 The Wildcats inbounded.

1284
00:58:02,180 --> 00:58:02,940
 Robertson has it.

1285
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,940
 I love my color analyst giving his honest opinion on these.

1286
00:58:08,020 --> 00:58:10,340
 And it's, I mean, it's a tough call by the officials.

1287
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:14,340
 That one, a whistle, an offensive foul there, pushing off as he goes in.

1288
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:20,260
 That was Robertson, who was dribbling with the left hand, shoving with the right hand, and it was pretty evident.

1289
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:28,460
 Turnover against the Wildcats, and a foul called on Robertson.

1290
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:30,720
 Lawrence leads about 11, a five-minute mark.

1291
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,980
 Pearson in the lane, teardrop is blocked by Knox.

1292
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,380
 Pearson got it back, put it up with the left hand, no good.

1293
00:58:36,500 --> 00:58:38,380
 Roy got it back, put it up, rolled it in.

1294
00:58:40,300 --> 00:58:43,000
 Roy in double figures now, unofficially, I have him.

1295
00:58:43,420 --> 00:58:43,760
 It's 11.

1296
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:47,380
 The Falcons lead by 13.

1297
00:58:47,700 --> 00:58:48,940
 Goodwin spinning in the lane.

1298
00:58:49,100 --> 00:58:51,480
 Roy stays on him, and they got a travel call.

1299
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:55,800
 Roy did the old step back.

1300
00:58:56,420 --> 00:58:58,920
 Excuse me, Goodwin did the step back, but he pulled the foot back.

1301
00:58:58,980 --> 00:59:00,020
 I like his game, though.

1302
00:59:00,140 --> 00:59:00,860
 Goodwin can play.

1303
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:02,640
 He certainly can.

1304
00:59:02,860 --> 00:59:04,720
 He sees the court in a different way.

1305
00:59:04,900 --> 00:59:07,120
 You can tell he's a very heady player.

1306
00:59:07,220 --> 00:59:08,440
 He uses his body quite well.

1307
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:09,680
 A good athlete.

1308
00:59:10,260 --> 00:59:13,720
 Pearson, top of the key, hesitation, kicked it to the corner to Payne.

1309
00:59:13,820 --> 00:59:14,760
 He's already hit two threes.

1310
00:59:14,820 --> 00:59:16,000
 He'll try a third one right there.

1311
00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:16,740
 No good short.

1312
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,900
 Rebound taken down by Riggs.

1313
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,220
 Riggs all the way over to Goodwin, who laid it up, put it in.

1314
00:59:22,300 --> 00:59:23,820
 That's a good two-man game right there.

1315
00:59:27,620 --> 00:59:30,800
 For you, 4A schools in this region listening in.

1316
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,580
 Yeah, you might want to keep your eye on this Terrence team.

1317
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:37,220
 They're undefeated in region play, and they are in the northwest region,

1318
00:59:37,340 --> 00:59:38,080
 if I'm not mistaken.

1319
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:39,420
 Pearson's fouled.

1320
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:40,260
 Put it up.

1321
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:41,720
 Put it in, and it will count.

1322
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,480
 Pearson did a great job of beating off the dribble.

1323
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:51,820
 Got his defender out of position, and when the defender was coming back,

1324
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,780
 trying to trail and get back into it,

1325
00:59:55,380 --> 01:00:00,040
 J-Shot just hit the brakes ever so slightly to create that contact up off the glass and in.

1326
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:06,480
 It's sort of like those fighter pilots that you can see how they stop the plane sort of in midair

1327
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:07,420
 and stop and go.

1328
01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:09,200
 He's got that top gun little move to him.

1329
01:00:09,260 --> 01:00:11,360
 I might have found a nickname Maverick for him before it's over with.

1330
01:00:11,380 --> 01:00:11,680
 Who knows?

1331
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:12,120
 We'll see.

1332
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:13,720
 Rebound.

1333
01:00:13,940 --> 01:00:14,780
 A free throw is good.

1334
01:00:14,860 --> 01:00:15,300
 Excuse me.

1335
01:00:15,820 --> 01:00:21,640
 A J-Shot as he gets the basket and the free throw, and Florence leaves it 42-28.

1336
01:00:22,220 --> 01:00:26,460
 Goodwin gets by the double team, goes all the way in, passes, knocked away, stolen away,

1337
01:00:26,540 --> 01:00:29,200
 and Burnett comes out of there with it with a head of steam with a left-hand dribble.

1338
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,700
 Burnett kicks it over to Payne for three.

1339
01:00:31,940 --> 01:00:32,660
 That one wouldn't go.

1340
01:00:33,060 --> 01:00:33,620
 Look at Knox.

1341
01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:35,180
 Save the rebound, but Florence gets it.

1342
01:00:35,500 --> 01:00:36,400
 Now check on Knox.

1343
01:00:36,540 --> 01:00:37,180
 Pearson with it.

1344
01:00:37,260 --> 01:00:37,780
 Top of the key.

1345
01:00:37,940 --> 01:00:38,660
 Three on the way.

1346
01:00:38,740 --> 01:00:41,880
 Goal, but the follow dunk by Green.

1347
01:00:42,260 --> 01:00:43,680
 Hello, Florence, Alabama.

1348
01:00:44,220 --> 01:00:46,920
 Haven't seen that in a Florence document player in a while.

1349
01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:52,280
 And Pearson with a rip and a strip, and Pearson down the floor, lays it up, puts it in.

1350
01:00:57,300 --> 01:00:59,960
 Flashes from Kevontae Green.

1351
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,260
 Kevontae went up and caught that rebound and just jammed it home.

1352
01:01:04,660 --> 01:01:06,960
 I don't think we've seen anything like that since D-back with.

1353
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:08,260
 That's a good comparison.

1354
01:01:08,260 --> 01:01:08,520
 Yeah.

1355
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:13,300
 I'm sure right now some of our former Falcons from last year may be saying, no, wait a minute.

1356
01:01:13,740 --> 01:01:15,700
 I don't think we saw a follow jam like that.

1357
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,040
 Shot no good by a walk-a**.

1358
01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:19,700
 Burnett with a rebound.

1359
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:22,380
 Pearson with a baseball pass.

1360
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:24,000
 Got it into Skipworth.

1361
01:01:24,100 --> 01:01:25,640
 Back out to Jones for three.

1362
01:01:25,780 --> 01:01:25,980
 Yep.

1363
01:01:25,980 --> 01:01:26,480
 No good.

1364
01:01:26,940 --> 01:01:30,000
 Skipworth a fight for the rebound alone with Green, but taken down by the walk-a**.

1365
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,040
 They look to push all the way down the floor.

1366
01:01:32,140 --> 01:01:32,760
 Layup is good.

1367
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,580
 That is a beautiful play there by Goodwin again.

1368
01:01:37,220 --> 01:01:38,660
 That's 12 on the night for Goodwin.

1369
01:01:39,020 --> 01:01:40,000
 46 to 30.

1370
01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:45,840
 Here comes the Falcons with it.

1371
01:01:46,380 --> 01:01:48,760
 Pearson dribbles to the side.

1372
01:01:48,860 --> 01:01:49,600
 Got it to Burnett.

1373
01:01:49,700 --> 01:01:50,160
 Top of the key.

1374
01:01:50,260 --> 01:01:50,680
 No reset.

1375
01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:52,360
 Burnett got by the defender.

1376
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:52,880
 Floater.

1377
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:53,400
 Teardrop.

1378
01:01:53,500 --> 01:01:53,820
 Good.

1379
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:58,780
 Nice play there by the freshman who has five on the day.

1380
01:01:59,620 --> 01:02:05,080
 Lawrence extends the lead to 48-30, an 18-point lead with two minutes and change to go.

1381
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:07,000
 Pull back.

1382
01:02:07,140 --> 01:02:07,700
 Simmons, too.

1383
01:02:07,820 --> 01:02:08,400
 That's good.

1384
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:09,440
 Goodness gracious.

1385
01:02:09,580 --> 01:02:10,040
 Can he play?

1386
01:02:11,860 --> 01:02:13,320
 That's 10 on the night for Simmons.

1387
01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:16,620
 On pickup games, would you choose Simmons in the first five picks?

1388
01:02:16,780 --> 01:02:17,540
 I think I would.

1389
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:20,300
 Why would it make it five picks?

1390
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:21,340
 Yeah, maybe three.

1391
01:02:21,500 --> 01:02:22,140
 Yeah, I'm with you.

1392
01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:23,940
 Green back out to Pearson.

1393
01:02:24,820 --> 01:02:26,200
 Pearson, double team.

1394
01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:27,260
 Keeps the dribble alive.

1395
01:02:27,700 --> 01:02:28,380
 Stays with it.

1396
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:30,780
 Best of the defenders come back and kick it out.

1397
01:02:30,900 --> 01:02:31,620
 Three on the way.

1398
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:31,940
 Short.

1399
01:02:32,020 --> 01:02:32,440
 No good.

1400
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:33,320
 Rebound.

1401
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:33,840
 Fall for it.

1402
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,020
 Look at the fight right there by Florence and a timeout taken.

1403
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:40,020
 Great job by Skipworth, who got on the floor fighting for that.

1404
01:02:40,140 --> 01:02:42,120
 Jones, actually, was one of the two.

1405
01:02:42,500 --> 01:02:43,700
 The other Skipworth fighting for it.

1406
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:45,940
 Got the ball on the floor.

1407
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:46,760
 Got the timeout.

1408
01:02:46,860 --> 01:02:47,520
 We'll do the same.

1409
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:49,040
 Florence leads it big.

1410
01:02:49,180 --> 01:02:50,460
 We're back in 30 seconds.

1411
01:02:51,060 --> 01:02:51,940
 Hey, Falcon fans.

1412
01:02:51,940 --> 01:02:53,880
 This is Keith at Cypress Creek Indoor Range.

1413
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,920
 At Cypress Creek Indoor Range, we prepare you to provide your own safety.

1414
01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,800
 The Cypress Creek Indoor Range team provides you with the knowledge and the right equipment

1415
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,220
 to defend yourself and family.

1416
01:03:02,420 --> 01:03:05,700
 And our state-of-the-art indoor shooting range gives you the perfect place to practice.

1417
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:09,880
 You can take your skills to the next level through our extensive training classes or private lessons.

1418
01:03:10,100 --> 01:03:13,000
 At Cypress Creek Indoor Range, your safety is our number one priority.

1419
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:17,180
 50-60, Highway 157, or on the web at cypresscreekrange.com.

1420
01:03:23,300 --> 01:03:28,180
 Back at the coffee gym where Florence leads it by 16, 48-32.

1421
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,960
 Rocking cheerleaders doing flips out on the court.

1422
01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:37,160
 Coach Tellis, groom of Tarrant, getting an explanation on that last play.

1423
01:03:37,220 --> 01:03:37,860
 He didn't like it.

1424
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,180
 I didn't see anything really went out of the ordinary.

1425
01:03:40,340 --> 01:03:41,020
 It was just a great hustle.

1426
01:03:41,860 --> 01:03:43,200
 Florence leads it 48-32.

1427
01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:44,500
 And Mike Albertson with me here.

1428
01:03:44,580 --> 01:03:47,280
 And Mike, depth is a big part in the 7A to 4A.

1429
01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:48,600
 You see that starting to play a factor.

1430
01:03:48,900 --> 01:03:49,300
 Yeah, absolutely.

1431
01:03:49,620 --> 01:03:51,040
 You know, we have Tarrant.

1432
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:55,260
 Tarrant has four players there that have scored so far.

1433
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:57,120
 And, you know, Florence has seven.

1434
01:03:57,260 --> 01:04:00,700
 But there are multiple guys that have gotten on the court tonight for Florence.

1435
01:04:00,820 --> 01:04:06,140
 And it's really only about six guys that I recognize have gotten some ample time there for Tarrant.

1436
01:04:06,140 --> 01:04:12,700
 You could tell, you know, that their rotation isn't near what the Falcons have as far as depth is concerned.

1437
01:04:13,020 --> 01:04:15,680
 The Falcons were inbound underneath the basket after Skipworth saved it.

1438
01:04:15,740 --> 01:04:16,540
 But it's turned over.

1439
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,080
 Nice job right there and a whistle in the backcourt and a double dribble.

1440
01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:22,120
 Robertson wanted to pass it.

1441
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:23,420
 And then he decided, I can't pass it.

1442
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:24,120
 I'll dribble again.

1443
01:04:24,260 --> 01:04:25,080
 Oh, I've been there.

1444
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:27,560
 Yeah, you put that second hand on it.

1445
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:31,760
 And unfortunately, it hits that floor and you feel like the worst guy in the gym.

1446
01:04:31,880 --> 01:04:34,540
 I can pull it off in church league, but I don't think you can pull it off in high school.

1447
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:36,820
 Inbounds finally gets into Green.

1448
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:38,160
 Green on the post.

1449
01:04:38,260 --> 01:04:38,520
 Turn.

1450
01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:40,000
 Shot blocked by Knox.

1451
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:41,000
 Green got it back.

1452
01:04:41,260 --> 01:04:41,880
 Up and under.

1453
01:04:41,980 --> 01:04:42,800
 Put it up.

1454
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:43,820
 Wouldn't go too strong.

1455
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:45,260
 Did everything right there.

1456
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:46,920
 And the ball went out of bounds.

1457
01:04:46,980 --> 01:04:49,620
 It'll stay with Tarrant.

1458
01:04:52,620 --> 01:04:54,300
 Florence up 48-32.

1459
01:04:54,980 --> 01:04:55,940
 Minute 20 to go.

1460
01:04:56,280 --> 01:05:00,400
 The jacket is off for Coach Dylan Burlington in his third season as the Falcons coach.

1461
01:05:00,860 --> 01:05:02,000
 Here comes the double team.

1462
01:05:02,780 --> 01:05:03,880
 Good trap all around.

1463
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:05,040
 Have him trapped in the corner today.

1464
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:05,780
 Back off of it.

1465
01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:08,160
 Lob inside.

1466
01:05:08,580 --> 01:05:10,760
 Reverse layup blocked inside there by Jones.

1467
01:05:11,180 --> 01:05:11,940
 Good hustle there.

1468
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:12,900
 Florence with the basketball.

1469
01:05:13,100 --> 01:05:14,360
 Jones pushes the ball up the floor.

1470
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:15,380
 Good layup.

1471
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:16,160
 Put up and good.

1472
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:17,080
 And they're going to wave it off.

1473
01:05:17,140 --> 01:05:17,900
 And that's a charge.

1474
01:05:18,460 --> 01:05:19,120
 That's Burnett.

1475
01:05:19,660 --> 01:05:20,700
 Ran over Riggs.

1476
01:05:22,700 --> 01:05:25,720
 He might have flown over Riggs, but he touched him and he went down.

1477
01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:29,140
 That was too far underneath the basket as far as I'm concerned.

1478
01:05:29,140 --> 01:05:33,500
 You know, they do have that circle in the NBA level.

1479
01:05:33,740 --> 01:05:35,420
 And even collegiate level, I think, now.

1480
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:36,580
 But they don't have it in high school.

1481
01:05:36,940 --> 01:05:39,460
 And, you know, I don't necessarily agree with that.

1482
01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:45,600
 If you're right under the basket and the guy leaves his feet, you have to, by rule, you have to be able to give him an opportunity to hit the ground.

1483
01:05:45,740 --> 01:05:47,380
 And, unfortunately, that wasn't the case.

1484
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:48,580
 Under a minute to go.

1485
01:05:48,700 --> 01:05:50,000
 Florence handily in the lead.

1486
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:52,820
 Tarrant running the horn set.

1487
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:54,880
 It doesn't matter.

1488
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:55,840
 They pull up a deep two.

1489
01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:56,300
 No good.

1490
01:05:56,380 --> 01:05:57,340
 Rebound taken by Florence.

1491
01:05:57,860 --> 01:05:59,040
 Jones comes out of there with it.

1492
01:05:59,100 --> 01:05:59,740
 Surveys traffic.

1493
01:06:00,220 --> 01:06:01,280
 Jones, hard to the basket.

1494
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,380
 Fouled on the way to the basket before the shot.

1495
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:07,460
 I like Tate Jones to the way he plays aggressively.

1496
01:06:08,500 --> 01:06:11,300
 Yeah, he's really grown as the season's gone on as well.

1497
01:06:11,380 --> 01:06:14,980
 You saw flashes early on that he was going to be a solid contributor for this Falcon team.

1498
01:06:14,980 --> 01:06:20,400
 But he's really flying all over the court and doing the little things to make this team better.

1499
01:06:21,300 --> 01:06:22,520
 Florence gets the inbounds in.

1500
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,680
 Lewis in there for the game for the first time for Florence.

1501
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:26,160
 Gets it to Burnett.

1502
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:26,920
 Back to Pearson.

1503
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:31,380
 We're under a minute to go under 30 seconds to go, actually.

1504
01:06:31,740 --> 01:06:32,760
 Jones with it outside.

1505
01:06:33,140 --> 01:06:34,160
 Hands it off to Burnett.

1506
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:36,540
 Burnett up to Lewis at the top of the key.

1507
01:06:37,180 --> 01:06:39,060
 Jalen Lewis gets it to Roy.

1508
01:06:39,500 --> 01:06:41,520
 Roy gets it to Pearson.

1509
01:06:41,980 --> 01:06:43,560
 Pearson with 20 seconds to Lewis.

1510
01:06:44,140 --> 01:06:44,860
 Lewis spins.

1511
01:06:44,860 --> 01:06:45,920
 Looks at the top of the key.

1512
01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:47,000
 Hands it off to Jones.

1513
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:49,380
 Jones, good ball movement to Burnett.

1514
01:06:49,860 --> 01:06:51,100
 Burnett had it almost knocked away.

1515
01:06:51,180 --> 01:06:52,040
 Spins back the other way.

1516
01:06:52,140 --> 01:06:52,860
 Double team now.

1517
01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:53,880
 Gets rid of it.

1518
01:06:53,940 --> 01:06:54,580
 Got it to Roy.

1519
01:06:54,900 --> 01:06:56,300
 Roy to Pearson with 10.

1520
01:06:56,660 --> 01:06:57,540
 Down to five.

1521
01:06:57,700 --> 01:06:58,000
 Pearson.

1522
01:06:58,400 --> 01:06:58,860
 Pull back.

1523
01:06:58,980 --> 01:06:59,300
 Three.

1524
01:06:59,420 --> 01:07:00,120
 On the way.

1525
01:07:00,340 --> 01:07:01,160
 Back rim no good.

1526
01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:03,780
 Rebound bounced around and that'll be the end of three.

1527
01:07:04,620 --> 01:07:05,520
 Three in the books.

1528
01:07:06,100 --> 01:07:07,240
 Florence in lead.

1529
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:08,340
 In control.

1530
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:09,460
 48-32.

1531
01:07:09,700 --> 01:07:11,240
 Talking basketball back in one minute.

1532
01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:14,040
 Getting the kids to practice on time.

1533
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:16,260
 Remembering if it's your day to bring snacks.

1534
01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:18,540
 Making it to the game with a clean jersey.

1535
01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,380
 Why are simple things sometimes so complicated?

1536
01:07:21,860 --> 01:07:24,640
 Thankfully, with auto owners, insurance doesn't have to be one of them.

1537
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,960
 Auto owners works with independent agents who answer when you call.

1538
01:07:28,220 --> 01:07:30,000
 So you can worry about more important things.

1539
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:33,140
 Like whether your kid is going to run toward first or third base.

1540
01:07:33,700 --> 01:07:35,000
 That's simple human sense.

1541
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:39,080

1552
01:08:17,940 --> 01:08:21,020
 Three quarters in the book, Florence leaves at 48-32.

1553
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,980
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson with you on a Saturday night special

1554
01:08:23,980 --> 01:08:27,820
 in the renaissance city of Florence, Alabama, here on 93.9 The Score.

1555
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:32,260
 Falcons hosting Tarrant Wildcats out of Birmingham area.

1556
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:38,560
 Pearson will inbound it, gets it in to Payne, back to Pearson.

1557
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:41,700
 Against the man-to-man pressure.

1558
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,840
 To Payne on the curl, keeps the dribble alive.

1559
01:08:45,060 --> 01:08:45,760
 Nowhere to go, though.

1560
01:08:45,820 --> 01:08:47,860
 Good help in the knockaway and stolen away.

1561
01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:49,280
 That's a good defense there by Tarrant.

1562
01:08:50,120 --> 01:08:53,340
 Yeah, it was a good job by J-Shot to really cut through the lane,

1563
01:08:53,420 --> 01:08:56,060
 but Tarrant with the active hands in defensive position,

1564
01:08:56,220 --> 01:08:57,620
 they wound up blocking that pass.

1565
01:08:57,900 --> 01:09:00,220
 Simmons with an acrobatic layup, no good.

1566
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,000
 Out of bounds, last touch by Florence.

1567
01:09:05,700 --> 01:09:06,860
 Nope, going to go back to Florence.

1568
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:07,900
 I thought that's what it was going to do.

1569
01:09:07,900 --> 01:09:08,740
 I was like, are you sure?

1570
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:11,840
 But it's Florence, it's basketball, and now the Wildcats are going to pick up

1571
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,240
 full court, trade them at 16.

1572
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:17,520
 Jones in back court for Florence, bounce pass to Payne,

1573
01:09:17,900 --> 01:09:18,840
 gets rid of it to Pearson.

1574
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:22,540
 Pearson in the middle of the floor, down the lane, put it up with the left hand.

1575
01:09:22,580 --> 01:09:23,240
 It would not go.

1576
01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:24,880
 It went all around the rim and bounced out.

1577
01:09:25,300 --> 01:09:27,320
 Rebound taken down by the Wildcats, who push it.

1578
01:09:27,780 --> 01:09:31,420
 Robertson down the floor is fouled before the shot.

1579
01:09:31,780 --> 01:09:32,520
 Johnson got him.

1580
01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:34,340
 Excuse me, Jones got him.

1581
01:09:36,100 --> 01:09:37,260
 Taylor and Jones picks up the foul.

1582
01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:37,880
 His third.

1583
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:43,460
 And Kevante Green will come in for Jones.

1584
01:09:43,460 --> 01:09:45,960
 At the 7-21 mark in the fourth quarter.

1585
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,640
 Florence leads at 48-32.

1586
01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:57,280
 Goodwin looks to get a bounce, bounce pass into Payne, knocked away, stolen away.

1587
01:09:58,020 --> 01:09:59,240
 Burnett, the freshman with the steal.

1588
01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:02,720
 Left-handed baseball pass down to Jones, back to Burnett, into the Payne,

1589
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:04,040
 put it off the glass, wouldn't go.

1590
01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:04,900
 That's a block.

1591
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:07,500
 Jones, excuse me, Payne with the rebound.

1592
01:10:07,620 --> 01:10:09,660
 He goes inside, left it with Green, he put it in.

1593
01:10:09,660 --> 01:10:10,760
 Selfish play there.

1594
01:10:11,980 --> 01:10:19,140
 Again, by Jason Payne with the assist.

1595
01:10:19,500 --> 01:10:20,620
 Florence lead up at 18.

1596
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:24,220
 Simmons goes one-on-one.

1597
01:10:24,300 --> 01:10:24,980
 He's done that a lot.

1598
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:26,080
 Pull back 19.

1599
01:10:26,340 --> 01:10:26,920
 That would miss.

1600
01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:29,580
 He's just forcing it up at this point.

1601
01:10:29,820 --> 01:10:32,260
 You can tell they're looking for offense from somewhere.

1602
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,300
 The Falcons defense has definitely frustrated this team.

1603
01:10:36,220 --> 01:10:39,640
 And, you know, Simmons, who's, you know, taking some great shots early on,

1604
01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:40,520
 that was definitely forced.

1605
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:43,980
 Burnett lobs up, goes up, tip no good.

1606
01:10:44,340 --> 01:10:46,780
 Too high on the lob and rebound taken down by Tarrant.

1607
01:10:47,180 --> 01:10:50,160
 They push up the floor, knocks, spins out of it, goes up with the basketball.

1608
01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:51,000
 No good.

1609
01:10:51,740 --> 01:10:52,520
 But he's fouled.

1610
01:10:53,140 --> 01:10:54,140
 And he'll go blind to shoot two.

1611
01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:55,620
 That's one of those situations.

1612
01:10:55,820 --> 01:10:59,000
 It's the first time in a while I saw Zion Burnett look like a freshman.

1613
01:10:59,240 --> 01:10:59,400
 Yep.

1614
01:10:59,740 --> 01:11:01,620
 You know, that was a freshman move right there.

1615
01:11:01,700 --> 01:11:03,060
 He was looking for the flash play.

1616
01:11:03,140 --> 01:11:04,060
 Yeah, we're up a lot.

1617
01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:04,460
 Whatever.

1618
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:08,100
 Instead of just taking it hard to the basket or taking it hard to the basket

1619
01:11:08,100 --> 01:11:11,100
 and dishing it, he tried for the flash play.

1620
01:11:11,260 --> 01:11:15,260
 And that, you know, it's one of those lob plays.

1621
01:11:16,100 --> 01:11:17,820
 It really was low percentage anyway.

1622
01:11:17,980 --> 01:11:21,100
 When you play a freshman, though, Mike, you pretty much understand you're going

1623
01:11:21,100 --> 01:11:22,700
 to have those moments with the players.

1624
01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:23,960
 You're going to be a freshman player at times.

1625
01:11:24,020 --> 01:11:24,780
 You have to live with it.

1626
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:25,800
 Oh, absolutely.

1627
01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:29,160
 You know, the young man's grown before our eyes.

1628
01:11:29,300 --> 01:11:32,040
 And you've got to kind of live and die by the sword in that situation.

1629
01:11:33,340 --> 01:11:34,860
 First free throw, no good for Knox.

1630
01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:37,980
 Simmons, who pressed a little bit, comes out.

1631
01:11:38,100 --> 01:11:41,680
 Smart play there by the head coach, Tellis Groom of Tarrant,

1632
01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:44,020
 who brings the star player out and says, you know what,

1633
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:45,220
 you're pushing and pressing a little bit.

1634
01:11:45,260 --> 01:11:46,120
 I'm going to give you a little breather.

1635
01:11:46,860 --> 01:11:48,220
 Lawrence leads it by 18.

1636
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:49,640
 Free throw, no good.

1637
01:11:49,740 --> 01:11:51,080
 Rebound taken down by Payne.

1638
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:52,820
 They take a full court on Payne.

1639
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:54,340
 He gets rid of it quickly to Burnett.

1640
01:11:54,440 --> 01:11:55,900
 Burnett knows one speed.

1641
01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:57,200
 That's fast forward.

1642
01:11:57,720 --> 01:11:58,600
 Ball knocked out of bounds.

1643
01:11:58,700 --> 01:11:59,460
 It'll stay with Florence.

1644
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:06,000
 Burnett's a freshman, but, man, he may be the fastest player from coast to coast.

1645
01:12:06,140 --> 01:12:06,940
 Boy, he can fly.

1646
01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:08,260
 He's sneaky fast.

1647
01:12:08,980 --> 01:12:14,260
 His length and his ability to burst, you know, it's almost he's so smooth it's effortless.

1648
01:12:14,460 --> 01:12:16,580
 Speaking of smooth, there's Payne for three.

1649
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:17,080
 Good.

1650
01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:22,600
 Zacian, you can tell he found his rhythm on that one.

1651
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:24,820
 Got 11 on the night.

1652
01:12:25,460 --> 01:12:27,960
 And the Falcons lead it by 21, 53-32.

1653
01:12:28,940 --> 01:12:30,600
 Goodwin tries to answer on the other end.

1654
01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:31,080
 No good.

1655
01:12:31,140 --> 01:12:32,920
 And great box out by three Falcons.

1656
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:34,380
 Pearson with the rebound.

1657
01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:35,680
 Pearson surveys traffic.

1658
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:36,880
 Crossover dribble.

1659
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:38,500
 Keeps the dribble alive at the top of the key.

1660
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:39,220
 Behind the back.

1661
01:12:39,300 --> 01:12:39,980
 Got it to Payne.

1662
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:41,100
 Fake the three.

1663
01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:41,880
 Into the paint.

1664
01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:42,220
 Looking.

1665
01:12:42,580 --> 01:12:43,540
 Takes the 10-footer.

1666
01:12:43,580 --> 01:12:44,200
 It won't go.

1667
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:48,600
 That 8-10-footer mid-range jumper tonight just won't fall for most of the Falcons for some

1668
01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:48,800
 reason.

1669
01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:53,600
 Goodwin puts up a tough layup because of that tip goes up and good by Robertson.

1670
01:12:58,640 --> 01:12:59,940
 Robertson gets that basket.

1671
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:01,780
 Falcons break the press.

1672
01:13:02,220 --> 01:13:03,040
 Roy in front court.

1673
01:13:03,200 --> 01:13:03,780
 Crossover dribble.

1674
01:13:03,900 --> 01:13:04,460
 Tripped up.

1675
01:13:05,420 --> 01:13:06,560
 Didn't mean to be tripped up.

1676
01:13:06,700 --> 01:13:08,160
 But Riggs got him.

1677
01:13:11,620 --> 01:13:12,340
 And Roy.

1678
01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:17,560
 Well, inbound it now for the Falcons.

1679
01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:19,360
 Who brings in Skipworth and Burski.

1680
01:13:20,700 --> 01:13:21,580
 And Green.

1681
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:24,420
 And someone else checked out there.

1682
01:13:24,480 --> 01:13:27,480
 But there will be Burski, Roy, Pearson, Payne.

1683
01:13:28,900 --> 01:13:30,780
 And we've got to clean up on all one.

1684
01:13:30,860 --> 01:13:32,160
 Skipworth is in the game now as well.

1685
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:39,780
 So, official cleaning up there in the paint where there's moisture.

1686
01:13:40,700 --> 01:13:41,980
 Keeping the players safe.

1687
01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:44,020
 It's such a vital part of this as well.

1688
01:13:46,940 --> 01:13:50,100
 These games like this are not area games.

1689
01:13:50,220 --> 01:13:52,760
 You've got area games coming if you want to keep everybody healthy, Mike.

1690
01:13:52,780 --> 01:13:53,800
 And that's one of the things, too.

1691
01:13:54,600 --> 01:13:55,200
 Well, absolutely.

1692
01:13:55,460 --> 01:14:00,500
 You know, getting, you know, up 19 points, you're going to look for some rotation at this point.

1693
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:05,600
 Just being able to get some guys in and get some quality minutes for some other guys and keep everybody healthy.

1694
01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:06,540
 Pain and rhythm.

1695
01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:07,400
 Three good.

1696
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:09,440
 That's from Roy.

1697
01:14:10,060 --> 01:14:11,340
 And that's a great set there.

1698
01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:14,660
 And he's hit four threes here in the second half.

1699
01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:16,780
 And Florence lead big now.

1700
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:17,380
 Fifty-five.

1701
01:14:17,480 --> 01:14:17,900
 Fifty-six.

1702
01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:18,380
 Thirty-four.

1703
01:14:18,480 --> 01:14:18,800
 Excuse me.

1704
01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:21,100
 Good one.

1705
01:14:21,180 --> 01:14:21,800
 Crossover dribble.

1706
01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:22,720
 Good help by Pearson.

1707
01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:23,900
 Forced at the 12-footer.

1708
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:24,280
 No good.

1709
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:25,240
 And Pearson got the rebound.

1710
01:14:25,700 --> 01:14:27,400
 He and Burski played good defense there.

1711
01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:29,420
 Pearson looks through the traffic.

1712
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:30,600
 Behind the back dribble.

1713
01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:32,660
 Keeps his dribble alive and finally gets it to Payne.

1714
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,660
 Payne picks up his dribble over to the left side now.

1715
01:14:36,020 --> 01:14:37,080
 And he'll run the point a little bit.

1716
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:38,260
 Gets the man-to-man defense.

1717
01:14:38,380 --> 01:14:39,580
 He'll take the deep three again.

1718
01:14:39,660 --> 01:14:40,100
 Why not?

1719
01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:41,660
 Why not, young man?

1720
01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:47,520
 After the first half where everything was falling short or long, right now everything's falling all net.

1721
01:14:52,220 --> 01:14:53,780
 Layup is good and a foul.

1722
01:14:53,940 --> 01:14:54,880
 Beautiful play there.

1723
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:56,000
 But a beautiful play.

1724
01:14:56,180 --> 01:14:57,680
 Simmons, who came back in.

1725
01:15:01,180 --> 01:15:03,360
 Gets it to fall with a soft touch.

1726
01:15:03,860 --> 01:15:05,620
 And will go to the line to complete the three-point play.

1727
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:07,580
 J.C. on Payne.

1728
01:15:08,260 --> 01:15:10,600
 Why is this game so good as a junior, Mike?

1729
01:15:11,180 --> 01:15:18,200
 You know, his experience last year, he was able to really play with some great players in some high-leverage situations.

1730
01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:21,600
 You know, just being able to be cool on the court there is definitely important.

1731
01:15:22,480 --> 01:15:24,020
 And, you know, he's really grown.

1732
01:15:25,020 --> 01:15:27,420
 But you can see it mostly in his leadership.

1733
01:15:27,420 --> 01:15:29,400
 You know, he's one of those quiet guys.

1734
01:15:29,500 --> 01:15:30,460
 He does it all on the court.

1735
01:15:30,460 --> 01:15:30,800
 He does it all on the court.

1736
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:32,180
 Never gets rattled and everything.

1737
01:15:32,180 --> 01:15:34,480
 But it's just the way he goes about his business.

1738
01:15:34,480 --> 01:15:37,080
 It's something that his Falcon team should be proud of.

1739
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:38,200
 Timeout on the floor.

1740
01:15:38,540 --> 01:15:39,560
 Florence takes the timeout.

1741
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:40,020
 Leading it.

1742
01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:46,700
 This is Miranda Haddock with the Florence Education Foundation.

1743
01:15:47,340 --> 01:15:50,140
 We invite you to support our Friends of the Foundation campaign.

1744

 Please visit our website at FlorenceEducationFoundation.org to explore our new giving levels and the added perks available.

1746
01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:08,340
 We want to wish Coach Burleson and the entire Falcon basketball team good luck this season.

1747
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:19,520
 421 to go.

1748
01:16:20,740 --> 01:16:22,880
 Florence leads it big, 59-36.

1749
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:30,080
 Official came over and said, are you okay?

1750
01:16:30,180 --> 01:16:32,380
 He had a little something in his eye trying to get it cleaned out.

1751
01:16:34,180 --> 01:16:35,840
 Is that why he wasn't pulling his whistle?

1752
01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:38,480
 I'm just going to say, there's a lot of jokes there, and I'm not going there.

1753
01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:40,340
 I couldn't help myself.

1754
01:16:40,580 --> 01:16:41,060
 Go figure.

1755
01:16:43,140 --> 01:16:46,100
 Game day operations at this Florence High School do a great job.

1756
01:16:46,180 --> 01:16:48,340
 From our scoreboard keeper to our clock operator.

1757
01:16:48,460 --> 01:16:49,920
 He's sitting left with me here.

1758
01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:55,580
 Our DJ that is the game announcer, PA announcer.

1759
01:16:56,340 --> 01:16:57,440
 Great job, all of them.

1760
01:16:58,300 --> 01:17:00,080
 Skipworth tried to pounce it inside to Roy.

1761
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:01,260
 He goes back and caught it.

1762
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:02,840
 And a shot up and no good, but he's fouled.

1763
01:17:03,440 --> 01:17:06,460
 Not sure, but he got caught on the arm by Knox.

1764
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:07,160
 He'll shoot two.

1765
01:17:09,420 --> 01:17:18,300
 Yeah, it was one of those situations where Knox had ball, and then as he went through and followed through on the block, wound up going down Roy's arm.

1766
01:17:18,560 --> 01:17:19,840
 And you talked about follow through.

1767
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:24,600
 That's so hard when you're blocking the shots just to get your hand up there, but you follow through.

1768
01:17:24,660 --> 01:17:25,580
 It's going to call every time.

1769
01:17:25,580 --> 01:17:29,740
 Once you touch that ball, you think that play's over, you know, as a defender.

1770
01:17:29,980 --> 01:17:32,520
 But really, you know, your whole body matters.

1771
01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:36,200
 And so, you know, once he followed through, it was an easy call for the official.

1772
01:17:36,440 --> 01:17:40,040
 I'm not sure what Cage Roy had for breakfast this morning, but his shot has been nice.

1773
01:17:40,140 --> 01:17:40,860
 That free throw.

1774
01:17:41,440 --> 01:17:42,760
 Second one's not on it.

1775
01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:45,920
 The first one was rim, went high up, and came right through the nets.

1776
01:17:46,300 --> 01:17:46,980
 He hit both of them.

1777
01:17:47,580 --> 01:17:54,740
 He's really a fairly strong free throw shooter from what I recall.

1778
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:55,120
 Yep.

1779
01:17:55,860 --> 01:17:56,880
 Long three on the way.

1780
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:57,560
 Banked in.

1781
01:17:58,320 --> 01:17:59,160
 That's from Coleman.

1782
01:17:59,720 --> 01:18:00,640
 Or Caldwell, excuse me.

1783
01:18:04,140 --> 01:18:05,300
 Caldwell banks that one in.

1784
01:18:06,140 --> 01:18:07,020
 61-39.

1785
01:18:07,180 --> 01:18:08,800
 Florence with the lead with 3.40 to go.

1786
01:18:10,680 --> 01:18:11,400
 Left wing.

1787
01:18:11,540 --> 01:18:12,520
 Three on the way by Roy.

1788
01:18:12,620 --> 01:18:13,500
 That one wouldn't go.

1789
01:18:13,980 --> 01:18:14,380
 Rebound.

1790
01:18:14,620 --> 01:18:15,600
 Staved in by Knox.

1791
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:19,040
 He was really good at keeping the ball alive and tipping it to his teammate.

1792
01:18:20,020 --> 01:18:20,380
 Simmons.

1793
01:18:21,140 --> 01:18:21,500
 Crossover.

1794
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:22,260
 Lost it.

1795
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:22,700
 Kicked.

1796
01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:25,920
 I was going to say kickball by the Falcons as Roy got a foot on it.

1797
01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:32,700
 Does a great job on help defense by Roy to come in on the back end there to even make a play on that ball.

1798
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,360
 So, you know, unfortunately it did go off his shoe.

1799
01:18:35,660 --> 01:18:42,180
 But, you know, just great to watch this Falcon team develop, especially defensively as the season's gone on.

1800
01:18:42,180 --> 01:18:47,800
 No, that's, was it a foul?

1801
01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:52,380
 Was it just a sub?

1802
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:55,200
 So, just a little confusion here.

1803
01:18:55,300 --> 01:18:55,980
 He's got a 30.

1804
01:18:58,980 --> 01:19:00,480
 Just a little confusion here what it was.

1805
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:01,400
 They thought it was a foul.

1806
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:05,500
 But, actually, I think it was a kickball is what it was.

1807
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:06,640
 It goes back to Tarrant.

1808
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:08,600
 3.25 to go.

1809
01:19:08,740 --> 01:19:10,460
 Florence leads it handily now.

1810
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:11,600
 61 to 39.

1811
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:14,400
 They were tied at 14 after one.

1812
01:19:14,500 --> 01:19:15,720
 Led it to half by seven.

1813
01:19:16,260 --> 01:19:17,880
 Extend the lead to 16 after three.

1814
01:19:18,080 --> 01:19:18,900
 Robertson for three.

1815
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:19,220
 Short.

1816
01:19:19,300 --> 01:19:19,700
 No good.

1817
01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:21,240
 Rebound by Florence's.

1818
01:19:22,540 --> 01:19:22,940
 Skipworth.

1819
01:19:23,380 --> 01:19:24,920
 He gets it over to Jaceon Payne.

1820
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,040
 He wears number one.

1821
01:19:26,820 --> 01:19:27,900
 Payne at the top of the key.

1822
01:19:28,040 --> 01:19:28,900
 Looking for a screen.

1823
01:19:29,020 --> 01:19:29,560
 Can't get one.

1824
01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:30,580
 Got a double team coming.

1825
01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:31,160
 Pull back.

1826
01:19:31,260 --> 01:19:31,980
 Fade away three.

1827
01:19:32,100 --> 01:19:32,720
 That one wouldn't go.

1828
01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:34,160
 Roy got the rebound.

1829
01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:35,220
 Spins and puts it in.

1830
01:19:36,540 --> 01:19:39,140
 I think we found our player of the game tonight, Mike.

1831
01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:40,420
 His name might be Cage Roy.

1832
01:19:42,340 --> 01:19:47,600
 His work underneath there, you know, that low block move to go to the basket there.

1833
01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:49,020
 That was definitely something special.

1834
01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:51,020
 Something we didn't see early on in the season with him.

1835
01:19:51,540 --> 01:19:55,640
 Simmons from NBA range won't go back around and hit the guide wire up top.

1836
01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:59,500
 They go back to Florence and now hockey substitutions.

1837
01:19:59,620 --> 01:20:01,020
 You bring three in for three.

1838
01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:05,800
 Burnett, Lewis, and Jones will come in for Payne, Pearson, and Roy.

1839
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:07,840
 And Payne and Pearson will get a handshake.

1840
01:20:07,900 --> 01:20:12,100
 But the last one, Roy, he's getting a couple of handshakes for several players and coaches right now.

1841
01:20:13,140 --> 01:20:14,720
 Falcons lead at 63-39.

1842
01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:22,060
 And haven't had many games like this this year.

1843
01:20:22,380 --> 01:20:24,040
 Lawrence has played such a difficult schedule.

1844
01:20:24,180 --> 01:20:25,720
 I know it feels good for them to get a win.

1845
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:27,040
 And Burski with it.

1846
01:20:27,340 --> 01:20:28,600
 Great pass out to Burnett.

1847
01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:29,980
 Burnett goes to the baseline.

1848
01:20:30,140 --> 01:20:30,780
 Floater up.

1849
01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:31,240
 Wouldn't go.

1850
01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:32,900
 Burski tried to follow up behind it.

1851
01:20:32,940 --> 01:20:33,260
 Wouldn't go.

1852
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:34,240
 Lewis on the other end.

1853
01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:37,440
 But then JV and Lewis, the senior.

1854
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:39,220
 His first basket of the day.

1855
01:20:41,800 --> 01:20:45,460
 But, Mike, this team has had so many close games go against them.

1856
01:20:45,860 --> 01:20:46,940
 They need a game like this.

1857
01:20:47,420 --> 01:20:47,860
 Absolutely.

1858
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:51,500
 You know, especially after taking five days off, you know, just being able to get out there,

1859
01:20:51,580 --> 01:20:54,660
 get back in rhythm as we're headed towards back area play.

1860
01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:55,580
 Watch out.

1861
01:20:55,580 --> 01:20:55,860
 It is huge.

1862
01:20:56,300 --> 01:20:57,240
 There goes Burnett.

1863
01:20:57,340 --> 01:20:58,920
 Oh, he couldn't get the jam to go down.

1864
01:20:59,420 --> 01:21:01,300
 Burski with a follow-up puts it in.

1865
01:21:04,500 --> 01:21:06,600
 Zy Burnett trying to get his dunk to go in.

1866
01:21:06,680 --> 01:21:08,300
 But he sort of got his steps mixed up.

1867
01:21:08,980 --> 01:21:09,620
 Wouldn't fall.

1868
01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:11,320
 But there was Burski to tip it back in.

1869
01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:14,860
 67-39.

1870
01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:16,440
 Shot no good.

1871
01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:18,360
 Burski contested that one.

1872
01:21:18,740 --> 01:21:19,620
 Rebound by Jones.

1873
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,260
 Jones looking up the floor.

1874
01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:23,300
 Threw it away.

1875
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:31,480
 In a, you know, in kind of a blowout situation as this is, I don't mind the young man going up trying for the dunk there.

1876
01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:34,520
 But in a close game, you better be putting up off the glass, son.

1877
01:21:35,180 --> 01:21:35,340
 Yeah.

1878
01:21:35,460 --> 01:21:39,540
 And we saw a couple of instances this year with that where they, you know, he thought, oh, he could dunk it.

1879
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:41,300
 And they laid it in because they knew the game was so tight.

1880
01:21:41,620 --> 01:21:42,440
 Make sure of the points.

1881
01:21:42,440 --> 01:21:46,440
 That says a lot about Dylan Burleson and his staff coaching this team up.

1882
01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:49,620
 I got to speak with Dylan Burleson about his team earlier.

1883
01:21:49,940 --> 01:21:51,960
 He felt really good about them this week.

1884
01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:54,160
 Great drive-by by Simmons.

1885
01:21:54,660 --> 01:22:00,660
 Boy, he has got all kinds of talent on him and his shoulders.

1886
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,420
 Burnett, front court, double team come.

1887
01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:04,480
 Got it rid of the skipper.

1888
01:22:04,660 --> 01:22:05,620
 He split the double team.

1889
01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:06,640
 Left hand layup short.

1890
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:07,960
 Rebound tipped around.

1891
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:08,820
 Good job by Lewis.

1892
01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:09,840
 Saved it out to Burnett.

1893
01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:12,000
 Zy Burnett now running a little point.

1894
01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:14,980
 Burnett gets by the defender and he's fouled.

1895
01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:18,840
 This is the third team foul as Robertson reached in.

1896
01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:24,240
 Zy Burnett, I have a 6'2 freshman.

1897
01:22:25,460 --> 01:22:29,180
 And, Mike, when I look at him and Roy, I've got a feeling they could grow another couple of inches.

1898
01:22:29,540 --> 01:22:30,540
 I think they could.

1899
01:22:30,740 --> 01:22:32,200
 They're still young pups, man.

1900
01:22:32,440 --> 01:22:37,740
 You know, and if they're able to put a couple more inches on them and whatever, they already have the talent.

1901
01:22:38,300 --> 01:22:39,160
 But the sky's the limit.

1902
01:22:39,420 --> 01:22:44,540
 You know, the sky's the limit as they develop, especially with this great coaching staff.

1903
01:22:45,100 --> 01:22:45,940
 Burski to Jones.

1904
01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:46,820
 Back to Burski.

1905
01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:48,200
 Burski drives.

1906
01:22:48,300 --> 01:22:48,940
 Goes up hard.

1907
01:22:49,020 --> 01:22:49,580
 Put it up.

1908
01:22:49,660 --> 01:22:50,100
 Wouldn't go.

1909
01:22:50,180 --> 01:22:51,840
 He did everything right but couldn't get it to go.

1910
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:54,260
 Oh, I love the move, though.

1911
01:22:54,420 --> 01:22:56,720
 You can hear the fans are going, oh, that was one they wanted.

1912
01:22:57,820 --> 01:23:03,280
 Sometimes when you blow past a defense and you have an uncontested shot, that shot's harder than the contested ones.

1913
01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:05,040
 Shot no good by Simmons.

1914
01:23:05,260 --> 01:23:06,200
 Lewis with the rebound.

1915
01:23:06,820 --> 01:23:08,600
 Dylan Burleson says the white flag.

1916
01:23:08,700 --> 01:23:10,820
 Throw it up there and let's dribble this thing out.

1917
01:23:11,700 --> 01:23:13,380
 Jones will hold it with 20 seconds.

1918
01:23:13,580 --> 01:23:15,280
 Florence leading at 67-41.

1919
01:23:15,440 --> 01:23:16,580
 Ball knocked away by Knox.

1920
01:23:18,440 --> 01:23:22,600
 Coach Mark Johnson got the rebound and was thinking about taking a shot.

1921
01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:24,060
 And thank goodness he didn't.

1922
01:23:24,580 --> 01:23:27,140
 Did not want him to be embarrassing this big crowd tonight.

1923
01:23:27,820 --> 01:23:29,260
 I'll give him a hard time about that later on.

1924
01:23:30,420 --> 01:23:31,080
 Jones has it.

1925
01:23:31,380 --> 01:23:32,660
 What about this coaching staff, Mike?

1926
01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:33,260
 They're pretty good.

1927
01:23:33,780 --> 01:23:35,560
 They are an excellent staff.

1928
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:40,160
 They really have grown together as the last couple of seasons have come on.

1929
01:23:40,980 --> 01:23:44,580
 And it's been just a beautiful thing to watch this Falcon program come together.

1930
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:50,960
 Final score, Florence wins at 67-41 here at the Coffee Gym.

1931
01:23:51,060 --> 01:23:52,960
 You're listening to the TNC Fireworks Post Game Show.

1950
01:24:59,020 --> 01:25:06,780
 Back here at the coffee gym where Florence wins on the Saturday night special,

1951
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:10,180
 knocking off the boys from Birmingham and Tarrant High School, 67-41.

1952
01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:12,840
 Joined now by the head coach, Coach Dylan Burleson.

1953
01:25:12,900 --> 01:25:17,780
 And Coach, a team that coming in was very talented, a team that's an older veteran team,

1954
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:22,960
 but your team had depth, your team played well, and you had some guys step up that haven't always

1955
01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:24,780
 stepped up as much and really played well tonight.

1956
01:25:25,980 --> 01:25:26,720
 We'll get you on here.

1957
01:25:26,780 --> 01:25:27,140
 There you go.

1958
01:25:27,260 --> 01:25:27,500
 My bad.

1959
01:25:27,540 --> 01:25:27,780
 I'm sorry.

1960
01:25:27,940 --> 01:25:29,160
 I thought we had some guys step up.

1961
01:25:29,220 --> 01:25:31,400
 I thought we had some guys hit some shots tonight.

1962
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:32,700
 And, of course, that never helps.

1963
01:25:32,820 --> 01:25:36,200
 I know that covers up some mistakes, but I thought we had some guys step up and hit some shots.

1964
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:40,000
 I thought the second half, really predominantly the third quarter, we came out of the halftime,

1965
01:25:40,440 --> 01:25:41,800
 did what we needed to do to put it away.

1966
01:25:42,120 --> 01:25:45,240
 And I didn't necessarily think we played bad in the first half.

1967
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:47,400
 I just didn't think we played up to the standard.

1968
01:25:48,300 --> 01:25:50,240
 But really good job for our guys to get this win tonight.

1969
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:53,340
 I think Tarrant's going to have a chance to make a run in 4A.

1970
01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:55,620
 But really proud of our guys tonight.

1971
01:25:55,620 --> 01:25:56,740
 How about Cage Roy?

1972
01:25:57,040 --> 01:25:59,920
 Cage Roy is a guy that's just round the game and all.

1973
01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:02,020
 But tonight, he really found his shot.

1974
01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:03,560
 He's tough, some confidence growing.

1975
01:26:03,860 --> 01:26:04,780
 He's a youngster, too.

1976
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:05,620
 He is a youngster.

1977
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:06,400
 He's a 10th grader.

1978
01:26:06,460 --> 01:26:09,720
 He's a sophomore that has come such a long way from the start of the season.

1979
01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:11,880
 Like, his ability to be aggressive.

1980
01:26:11,980 --> 01:26:15,320
 And I don't think he actually knows how great he can actually be.

1981
01:26:15,900 --> 01:26:18,420
 He has a high, high ceiling.

1982
01:26:18,860 --> 01:26:21,400
 I think he's just now kind of tapping into that potential.

1983
01:26:21,820 --> 01:26:23,320
 But he had some aggressive takes tonight.

1984
01:26:23,320 --> 01:26:25,040
 He's rebounding the ball really well.

1985
01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:27,840
 We're really pleased with how he's progressed.

1986
01:26:28,180 --> 01:26:31,320
 Jason Ipane did not have his shot early, but he showed maturity.

1987
01:26:31,440 --> 01:26:32,740
 He got involved in other ways.

1988
01:26:32,900 --> 01:26:33,220
 He did.

1989
01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:33,580
 He did.

1990
01:26:33,620 --> 01:26:33,960
 He was able.

1991
01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:36,280
 I thought he got his hands with more balls than I than probably has.

1992
01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:39,720
 There was a lot of times we had guys that wasn't tagging up.

1993
01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:44,200
 He was one of those guys that weren't tagging up and, you know, giving ourselves another chance to get another possession.

1994
01:26:44,580 --> 01:26:46,340
 And he saw the ball go in more in the second half.

1995
01:26:46,380 --> 01:26:51,320
 But in the first half, it was him finding himself to find a way to be a part of the game when shots weren't going in.

1996
01:26:51,700 --> 01:26:53,560
 Now you turn your attention to area play.

1997
01:26:53,560 --> 01:26:57,540
 You got through this time, Christmas season, holiday season, area play.

1998
01:26:57,880 --> 01:27:00,160
 What do you like about your team going into the next couple of weeks?

1999
01:27:00,340 --> 01:27:03,320
 I think our guys, just the willingness to come to improve every day.

2000
01:27:04,060 --> 01:27:09,360
 Regardless of what our record is or where we are right now in the area, like we're still approaching every game like we're 0-0.

2001
01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:12,140
 Like that number beside our name is just a number.

2002
01:27:12,420 --> 01:27:16,600
 So our guys being able to come in every day and improve and continue to buy into the process.

2003
01:27:16,980 --> 01:27:18,980
 We play a tournament sport that's a one-game season.

2004
01:27:19,580 --> 01:27:21,800
 But we've got two really big area games coming up this week.

2005
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:23,260
 We need a big crowd on Tuesday night.

2006
01:27:23,440 --> 01:27:24,100
 That's what I was going to say.

2007
01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:25,940
 The big crowd on Tuesday night should be a lot of fun.

2008
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:26,880
 Coach, best of luck.

2009
01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:27,900
 We look forward to that.

2010
01:27:27,960 --> 01:27:29,180
 And we go celebrate with your team.

2011
01:27:29,480 --> 01:27:29,840
 Congratulations.

2012
01:27:30,100 --> 01:27:30,480
 Appreciate you.

2013
01:27:30,480 --> 01:27:36,760
 The head coach of the Florence Falcons, whose team wins it tonight over Terrence, 67-41.

2014
01:27:36,980 --> 01:27:39,080
 A huge win for Coach Dylan Burles and his team.

2015
01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:41,780
 He gets celebration with his kids here and his wife.

2016
01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:43,940
 Family affair, they're all into it.

2017
01:27:44,460 --> 01:27:49,240
 But it's just a beautiful win for the Falcons tonight because everybody got involved, Mike,

2018
01:27:49,280 --> 01:27:50,140
 and that's what you want to see.

2019
01:27:50,480 --> 01:27:51,000
 Yeah, definitely.

2020
01:27:51,260 --> 01:27:55,740
 You know, when the Falcons have, you know, that opportunity to rotate some guys in

2021
01:27:55,740 --> 01:28:00,060
 and get some production out of guys on the court here, you know,

2022
01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:03,200
 it doesn't matter if it's the starting five or the guys off the bench.

2023
01:28:03,720 --> 01:28:06,620
 It's definitely important to continue to, you know,

2024
01:28:06,620 --> 01:28:08,680
 kind of have that rising tide raise all the boats.

2025
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:13,300
 And the Falcons have done that, getting some guys, you know, on the court

2026
01:28:13,300 --> 01:28:16,880
 and getting them some quality minutes against some really stiff competition

2027
01:28:16,880 --> 01:28:20,080
 because as the area play goes, we're going to need that depth coming in.

2028
01:28:20,740 --> 01:28:24,460
 Should be a good one coming up on Tuesday night with Florence Host and James Clemens.

2029
01:28:24,860 --> 01:28:26,260
 Need a big crowd on that one as well.

2030
01:28:26,340 --> 01:28:28,000
 Let's take a 30-second timeout.

2031
01:28:28,100 --> 01:28:30,700
 You're listening to the TMT Fireworks postgame show.

2032
01:28:30,780 --> 01:28:32,860
 Florence Falcon Basketball is back in 30 seconds.

2033
01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:35,720
 Thanks for choosing Whataburger.

2034
01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:37,060
 What can I get started for you?

2035
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:42,320
 At Whataburger, each meal is made to order, so you can always get exactly what you crave.

2036
01:28:42,660 --> 01:28:45,020
 If that's a Whataburger what-a-meal, you got it.

2037
01:28:45,580 --> 01:28:48,800
 But if you're in the mood for something a little more you,

2038
01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:54,080
 like a Whataburger with grilled onions, crispy bacon, and creamy pepper sauce, go for it.

2039
01:28:54,560 --> 01:28:56,300
 March to the beat of your own drum.

2040
01:28:56,780 --> 01:28:59,560
 Bite into the beef of your own Whataburger creation.

2041
01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:02,700
 Whataburger, just like you like it.

2042
01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:05,720
 1554 Florence Boulevard.

2043
01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:13,340
 Good news, Falcon fans.

2044
01:29:13,440 --> 01:29:18,140
 On the Saturday night special, Florence wins it 67-41 over Tarrant.

2045
01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:20,460
 A game that you would hope that Florence would win.

2046
01:29:20,860 --> 01:29:23,920
 Tarrant 10-7 on the year, but a really good 4A team.

2047
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:25,480
 He's played a lot of stiff competition.

2048
01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:31,000
 The Falcons took care of the smaller school and did it well here at home tonight in the big win.

2049
01:29:31,340 --> 01:29:33,520
 Our final stats brought to us by our good friends at Chick-fil-A.

2050
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:34,560
 And, Mike, I'll let you take it away.

2051
01:29:34,860 --> 01:29:35,340
 Thanks, Kevin.

2052
01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:39,300
 Leading the way for Tarrant was Jalen Simmons with 14 points.

2053
01:29:39,440 --> 01:29:41,600
 Tristan Goodwin had 12.

2054
01:29:42,220 --> 01:29:44,520
 We had Darian Knox with 8 points.

2055
01:29:44,740 --> 01:29:46,000
 Antonio Caldwell with 3.

2056
01:29:46,400 --> 01:29:49,320
 And Latrell Robertson with 4 points leading the way for the Falcons.

2057
01:29:49,320 --> 01:29:52,360
 We had JC Ampain with 17 points.

2058
01:29:52,460 --> 01:29:54,100
 Cage Roy with 15.

2059
01:29:54,260 --> 01:29:55,580
 Jay Shaw Pearson with 8.

2060
01:29:55,700 --> 01:29:58,260
 Taylor James with 6 points.

2061
01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:00,260
 You got Kevante Green with 9.

2062
01:30:00,380 --> 01:30:01,680
 JV and Lewis with 2.

2063
01:30:01,940 --> 01:30:02,840
 Bo Berski with 2.

2064
01:30:02,920 --> 01:30:04,480
 And Zion Burnett with 5 points.

2065
01:30:05,620 --> 01:30:08,680
 Florence and Tarrant were tied at 14 in the first.

2066
01:30:09,420 --> 01:30:10,460
 Falcons led it by 7.

2067
01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:11,900
 31-24 at the half.

2068
01:30:12,340 --> 01:30:15,720
 Extended the lead to 48-32 and ran away with it in the second half.

2069
01:30:15,780 --> 01:30:16,760
 67-41.

2070
01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:22,260
 And, Mike, as you watch this Falcons team after tonight, you know,

2071
01:30:22,360 --> 01:30:25,080
 obviously it is not the same team as last year.

2072
01:30:25,180 --> 01:30:25,860
 We all know that.

2073
01:30:25,980 --> 01:30:26,660
 They know that.

2074
01:30:27,160 --> 01:30:29,240
 And yet there's something about this team.

2075
01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:30,580
 Throw the record away.

2076
01:30:30,680 --> 01:30:31,920
 I just like this team.

2077
01:30:32,020 --> 01:30:35,620
 There's something about a team that says, oh, no, we can play with anybody.

2078
01:30:35,620 --> 01:30:37,580
 And they're starting to believe it, starting to show it.

2079
01:30:37,680 --> 01:30:42,100
 The other night they lost an overtime to number 6-ranked Spartan here at home,

2080
01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:42,940
 81-77.

2081
01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:45,200
 So they believe they can play with anybody.

2082
01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:46,960
 And now it's a tournament game.

2083
01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:48,640
 You get into a one-game situation.

2084
01:30:48,820 --> 01:30:51,160
 This would not be – the soccer team thinks they can win.

2085
01:30:51,580 --> 01:30:52,780
 And rightly so.

2086
01:30:53,020 --> 01:30:55,900
 I mean, look, we've got talent on this court.

2087
01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:58,680
 And really just that experience that they've gained this year,

2088
01:30:58,740 --> 01:30:59,960
 playing some of the best of the best,

2089
01:31:00,380 --> 01:31:04,880
 has really gotten them in a situation where they're really playing a solid brand of basketball.

2090
01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:07,200
 The coaching staff has done a phenomenal job.

2091
01:31:07,380 --> 01:31:11,860
 The senior leadership on this team has really come together and brought this team together,

2092
01:31:12,260 --> 01:31:13,580
 along with, you know, J.C.

2093
01:31:13,580 --> 01:31:18,980
 I'm paying, yeah, while only a junior, had really a lot of quality time last year as well.

2094
01:31:19,100 --> 01:31:22,980
 So just that experience mixed with a lot of the young bucks learning on the fly,

2095
01:31:23,400 --> 01:31:27,780
 you know, with this coaching staff, this Falcon program is really in great shape,

2096
01:31:28,180 --> 01:31:32,380
 where they started in the season and now heading towards tournament time.

2097
01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:34,340
 You know, anything can go at this point.

2098
01:31:34,520 --> 01:31:38,260
 And when you have that sort of belief in the ability to go out there

2099
01:31:38,260 --> 01:31:42,500
 and actually, you know, back it up, it's, you know, makes the games easy.

2100
01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:43,900
 And the Falcons have done that.

2101
01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:45,480
 It does for sure.

2102
01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:48,740
 And I think the Falcons have a chance to make some noise before it's over with

2103
01:31:48,740 --> 01:31:52,380
 and they need to be crowded on hand as they take on James Clemens.

2104
01:31:52,540 --> 01:31:55,920
 Our next broadcast, Friday night, on the road at Bob Jones.

2105
01:31:56,040 --> 01:31:57,440
 That's going to do it for us tonight.

2106
01:31:57,860 --> 01:32:00,900
 Falcons win it 67-41 over Tarrant.

2107
01:32:01,260 --> 01:32:05,280
 For Caleb Pettis, our 93-9 score engineer, and our station manager, Greg Thornton.

2108
01:32:05,540 --> 01:32:09,760
 For my good friend, Mike Albertson, our color analyst, I'm Kevin Johnson saying have a great night.

2109
01:32:10,160 --> 01:32:12,000
 Don't forget, I'll see you in church on Sunday.

2110
01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:16,280
 And now we get ready to send you down to Tuscaloosa and Alabama basketball

01:32:18,660 --> 01:32:19,460
 Good night, everyone.
