What does "downstate" mean? I first hear this jargon on some basketball special on TV on Sunday afternoon - I think it was Sunday - that was a docudrama about a boys high school team. Maybe some place called "Orr Academy". Not sure. But, the coach and his staff kept talking about "downstate".

It is just another way of saying they are at that level of the IHSA Tournament. It is mostly those in Chicago and the suburbs that say this term. Yes, some people in the other parts of the state might use this, but if you are in Central Illinois already, you likely would not reference the State Finals this way for the most obvious reasons. Also, most of the state's population is from the northern part of the state. Actually the term kind of pisses off those in other parts of the state sometimes, but they will just have to get over it. BTW, I am originally from Central Illinois. I grew up in Macomb, Illinois originally before coming to the Chicago suburbs in 1999 and I lived an hour from Peoria and about 2 hours from Bloomington/Normal area. We just called it the "State Finals" or "Going to State." Peace

For those that care. Bob is working the 3A title game right now.
Btw, it is on NBC Sports Chicago. It might be on the alternative version. I am in the arena so I do not know for sure. Peace

I fully expect a game thread with plays

Actually I felt overall they did a very good job. There are a couple mechanical things but not much of anything. I would have to watch the game completely over.
I was in the arena so a different perspective. Peace

Yeah it's here:
https://shar.es/1LvQ2I Richwoods vs Nazareth Academy Man it started off with a bang! 1Q 7:11 tough play in post, defender goes down seemingly easy 6:04 travel call going away from Lead official 5:57 some dead ball pushing not addressed by the Slot, also the Lead official stood waaaaay too close to the inbounder, effectively cutting off her throw-in angle 5:52 reach-in foul and subsequent technical when girls get tangled up and one pushes away 5:13 foul on what looks like blocked shot 4:07 bob, think about going low underneath the matchup there, better angle on the shot contact and better weakside rebounding position IMO And that's just the first half of the first quarter. Bob what did you think about the tech and the stuff I mentioned above? |
