Maybe they’ll try to pick up the WAC Sports Network games, but I wouldn’t expect to see the ACC, Under $20 SEC or Big East as part of these channels due to their contracts with ESPN. ESPN treats the conference very well with respect to basketball. All of the conferences mentioned have either conference branded digital networks (C-USA, A-Sun) or have invested in technology to have their games webcast via ESPN (many A-Sun schools on their own). Three of the four ROOT Sports regional sports networks will be rebranding to AT&T SportsNet in July. It will be very interesting to see how Albany handles that and gets their three 1,000-point scorers going in the section championship. I think the Jaguars have a good chance of going at least 2-1 in the three matches. The Jaguars trailed 6-0, then led 14-6 going into halftime. I have heard that the junior high team will be going as well. Both are the final games on the Central Minnesota Conference schedule as well.
They went ahead 21-6, then Lakeview scored to make it 21-12. The Jaguars moved in front 28-12 before the Lakers scored the final touchdown of the game. Tonight’s game took place during a light drizzle almost the whole time, and the pass-oriented Jaguars found a way to pull out a win over a ground-oriented Lakeview Lakers team that played with endless heart and stamina. A Royals win likely propels them into the top eight in Region 5C (they’re currently 10th at 19.4 points. In Section 6AA, New London-Spicer almost knocked off Albany in the Sub-Section 6AA-19 championship game, losing 42-37. Ironically, the score was identical to their win over Sauk Centre two nights ago. Then, a week later, it was the showdown of future Spiders as the Saints’ Nic Sherod and Henrico’s De’Monte Buckingham squared off in the Henrico Holiday Hoops Tournament Championship heard live on RVA Sports Network, won by the homestanding Warriors. Albany is now 26-2 and will face West Central Area, who won 53-28 over Minnewaska Area in the Sub-Section 6AA-17 championship game. Next Monday the Jaguars Fastpitch team travels to Paynesville to face the Bulldogs.
On Monday the Jaguars baseball team hosts Osakis in a non-conference game to begin the season. Think about playing baseball in loose fitting basketball shorts, or playing soccer in football gear. I received a baseball schedule over a week ago, and this weekend I’ll begin putting schedules on here. A couple non-conference games that the network could end up choosing, if they want them, are Virginia at James Madison on 11/14 and Temple at Delaware on 12/18. Both dates appear open at the moment on NBCSN as 11/14 was skipped on the NBCSN college hockey schedule. FOX’s broadcast network will carry what I believe is their first college basketball game on November 16th, showing Ohio St.’s visit to Marquette. CBS post from earlier this week, here’s one on the men’s basketball that FOX will carry across several platforms this upcoming season. Talk to your nearest football player to grab one.
John Marshall (1-7) at Deep Run (4-4), 7pm: The very fact that we are talking about Deep Run football and playoffs, on October 28th, is a testament to the work of the Wildcats and new head coach Chad Hornik. 4 Highland Springs (7-1), 7pm: It’s Senior Night at Kreiter Stadium for a pretty special group. After a series of injuries that kept him out of the national setup, Mitchell Marsh finally found his night of reckoning and glory as he guided Australia to their maiden T20 World Cup title at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday. The team lined up for the National Anthem, standing tall and standing proud on their high school athletic complex. The game begins at 4:30 at the Paynesville Area High School athletic complex. This is what high school sports is about, a team coming together on their own high school athletic grounds, battling for playoff glory not only for themselves and the school, but also for the community in general.
