@GeryWoelfel They were in the same conference and 3 straight years Pewaukee beat Wisco in the Sectional Championship. In Kon’s senior year they moved Wisco to a different sectional.

The best 3-point shooter in college basketball last season was Kon Knueppel, who played at Duke and is now the frontrunner for NBA Rookie of the Year honors with the Hornets. The best 3-point shooter in college basketball this year is Milan Momcilovic of Iowa State. While Knueppel shot 41 percent on treys last season, Momcilovic is shooting an off-the-charts 49 percent on 3-pointers this season. Both Momcilovic and Knueppel both played high school ball in Wisconsin: Knueppel at Wisconsin Lutheran and Momcilovic at Pewaukee.

This is awesome 🥹 Rangers manager, Skip Schumaker, went out to the mound not to remove Carter Baumler, a Rule 5 pick, but to inform him that he made the Rangers Opening Day roster during a mound visit

@MSU_WBasketball This was such a fun team to watch!

Thank you to everyone who made our 2025-26 season so special 💚✨

@JordanLoppnow 6 big ten schools in the final 16 is pretty impressive.

While I am sad the Badgers did not make the Sweet 16 for the 8th consecutive completed season, I am very happy for our region. 7 schools located one or two states away from Wisconsin are in the Sweet 16 this year: Illinois Iowa Iowa State Michigan Michigan State Nebraska Purdue

@MSU_WBasketball They played their hearts out tonight! Great season!!

Final from Norman

@WisBasketballHQ That’s impossible

@TStrobe78 The coaches association is trying to get 8 teams in all 5 divisions to the state tournament.

The Appleton North/Wisconsin Lutheran game was extremely entertaining and high level basketball. I forced myself to watch parts of the D5 games today. It's fine, but we do not need 8 D5 teams at state. 4 more D1 teams, and more play like the last game, yes please.

@waltbcoolin @T__Spears24 @KarlWinterTV 💯

@T__Spears24 @TStrobe78 @KarlWinterTV I don’t think holding the ball period is good. I’m from Georgia and we’ve had a shotclock for the past 4 years I’d say. I think shotclocks should be universal in high school basketball. Not trying to call out the team that won at all! Just think shotclocks make games better

Milwaukee Juneau, leading by 2 in the State title game, holds the ball for 90+ seconds before calling a timeout. Boos rain down at the Kohl Center. #wisbb

@T__Spears24 @waltbcoolin @KarlWinterTV Facts! A) Shot clock eliminates finger pointing B) Classy Coaches talk about what their TEAM did

@waltbcoolin @TStrobe78 @KarlWinterTV Hell naw cause teams do it!

@BTerrell_414 @T__Spears24 @KarlWinterTV 😂😂good one! I saw the interview. Can’t unsee it!

@TStrobe78 @T__Spears24 @KarlWinterTV Cleary you don’t know Torre… not a person has invested more into those young men over the last 3-4 years… Only people who can’t make left hand layups have reactions like you

@TravisBOUND Well deserved. This man is the best.

State tournament PA announcer Jim Strick from Neenah recognized with an award from the WIAA and NFHS at halftime. Very deserving, Jim does a great job in many phases of high school athletics. #wisbb #wiaabb

@T__Spears24 @KarlWinterTV He did and they were. You’re still missing the point.

@TStrobe78 @KarlWinterTV He did tho! He played his part as a coach and had his team prepared.

80 years later… Reedsville does it again! 🏀🏆✨ In 1946, a town of 476 shocked the state, winning the single-division WIAA State Championship in an era with no dunks, no 3-point line and underhand free throws. Now, led by Coach Ron Prochnow and fueled by two great-grandsons of that original team—his own sons—the Panthers are champions once more. Play hard. Have fun. History made. #wiaabb #statechamps

@T__Spears24 @KarlWinterTV Not at all. Both teams played very well. The point is how coach said HE got this. Not at all a good look from your coach.

@TStrobe78 @KarlWinterTV You mad they won! Cambridge should’ve played better. 90 secs didn’t determine the whole game. 🤣🤣

@KarlWinterTV Never in my life have I seen a winning coach say “I” got this. What a clown. This is exactly why Wisconsin needs a shot clock. This was a great game that the fans were really into until he pulled this garbage.

"I just want to win." Coach Torre Johnson Jr.'s explanation when asked about this possession:

High Point G Chase Johnston, who hit the game-winner in their upset win over Wisconsin, wears jersey #99 to represent The Parable of the Lost Sheep where Jesus leaves the 99 to find the 1 👏

@BenBrust As a Badger fan under Gard I feel like we live on the Island of Misfit Toys. Another year of no Sweet 16.

Wrong

@HellerSports They got outworked and out hustled. Same Tournament different year.

No Excuses... The Badgers couldn't finish with the guy that's finished all season, Nick Boyd. All the credit in the world to High Point... #Damn What a crushing loss... and it's it's a credit to the players and coaches for High Point. For the Badgers... crushing and hard to take

@GoPackGo30 They were outhustled the entire game. Loose balls, rebounds, help defense… Badgers plain and simple didn’t want it like High Point did. High Point got what they deserved…..and so did the Badgers

Gut punch. What a brutal loss.

19 years ago, a high school basketball coach put his team manager into a game for the final four minutes. The kid had never played a single minute of competitive basketball in his life. He scored 20 points. Jason McElwain was diagnosed with severe autism at age two. He didn’t speak until he was five. He couldn’t chew solid food until he was six. He wore a nappy for most of his early childhood. As a baby, he was rigid, wouldn’t make eye contact, and hid in corners away from other children. He tried out for his school basketball team every year and got cut every time. Too small. Too slight. Barely 5’6 and about 54 kilograms. But he loved the game so much that his mum called the school and asked if there was any way he could be involved. The coach created a team manager role for him. For three years, McElwain showed up to every practice and every game. He wore a shirt and tie on match days. He ran drills, handed out water, kept stats, and cheered every basket like he’d scored it himself. On 15 February 2006, the last home game of his final school year, the coach let him suit up in a proper jersey and sit on the bench. With four minutes left and a comfortable lead, the coach sent him in. His first shot missed. His second missed. Then something shifted. He hit a three-pointer. Then another. Then another. His teammates stopped shooting entirely and just kept passing him the ball. He hit six three-pointers and a two-pointer. 20 points in four minutes. The highest scorer in the game. When the final buzzer went, the entire crowd rushed the court and lifted him onto their shoulders. His mum tapped the coach on the shoulder, in tears. “This is the nicest gift you could have ever given my son.” McElwain won the ESPY Award for Best Moment in Sports that year, beating out some of the biggest names in professional sport. He’s 36 now. He works at a local supermarket, coaches basketball, has run 17 marathons including five Boston Marathons, and travels the country speaking about never giving up. When asked about that night, his coach still gets emotional. “For him to come in and seize the moment like he did was certainly more than I ever expected. I was an emotional wreck.”
