I’m makin’ a roadie today... to Bellarmine!

[kiddman32]

I think I’ve seen the Bells in person twice, both last season. Watched ‘em online once or twice this year...

Saw SI lose in their opener vs Las Lomas... I understand they had injuries, dunno if those guys are back or not.

Being an Eastbay guy, I don’t get to see WCAL ball much at all. Even though the league race is settled, this one could mean a lot in CCS seedlings... or maybe not. I have an idea WCAL pride will be enough too get the kids playing full-on.

In their first meeting, the Bells won in OT, 72-66.

Never been here... Really nice spacious gym... Must have crazy loud before they treated the ceiling and upper walls with acoustic foam... Sounds more like a concert hall than a typical gym... gotta do something to keep 1900 crazed fans from deafening each other...

That should be a great game.

Mitty with a big game tonight as well. It's do or die for their playoff chances....

Will both respective games in San Jose be live-streamed?

 

[TurtleLoveCA]

Is Mr. October there again?

 

[kiddman32]

I know this game will be streamed... the announcers are right behind me.

 

[kiddman32]

Is Mr. October there again?

Reggie Jackson was here?

 

[TurtleLoveCA]

Has been at a few games recently. My son talked with him at St Francis Tuesday night.

 

[kiddman32]

Had no idea Jackson lived here... I’m so bad at recognizing faces that if I’d seen him at a game, I wouldn’t have noticed...

I wiki’d him and found how that 1991 Oakland fire destroyed his home, and his 1973 MVP trophy.

 

[kiddman32]

Anyway... The varsities are warming up now, Bellarmine band warming up.... Almost no 6th-man presence... darned holiday weekend...

 

[TurtleLoveCA]

Reggie lives in Monterey

 

[kiddman32]

Must be nice...

 

[CityVibesII]

I believe 1590 AM covering SI/Bell game. Would be surprised if Mitty loses at home tonight.

 

[kiddman32]

SI leads 12-6 halfway thru 1st q

 

[kiddman32]

22-17 Wildcats after 1st q... Lot of offensive skill on both sides... Interior defenses haven’t been great...

 

[kiddman32]

Yes, 1590’s banner on the wall, so they must be doing the game

 

[kiddman32]

Bells on 11-2 run, 29-24 Bells

 

[kiddman32]

Woncik steal, two tips to himself, great pass to Stubblefield for layup... amazzzzzzzing play

 

[kiddman32]

34-26 Bells

 

[kiddman32]

43-36 at the half... Great shooting by both sides

 

[kiddman32]

Bellarmine band is really solid... no need for the piped-in music here.

Otherwise, atmosphere in here is flat. Darned holiday weekend....

 

[kiddman32]

53-44 Bells, 3:45 left 3rd

 

[kiddman32]

Woncik is a straight-up freak... Great shooter, terrific hands, court awareness... Dude is legit.

 

[kiddman32]

63-53 Bells after 3

 

[kiddman32]

70-61 Bells with under 6 minutes to go. They are just *scorching* the nets!

 

[kiddman32]

2 more bombs from Wojcik, one from Milpitas and the other from Sunnyvale... 78-66

 

[kiddman32]

SI lighting it up, too... 84-71 with 2 minutes left.

 

[kiddman32]

SI playing the hack-n-hope game... 86-76 with 1:19 left

 

[kiddman32]

95-80 final

 

[kiddman32]

Wojcik scored 29... Seemed like 49 somehow...

 

[larry legend33]

Bellarmine is my dark horse for a deep run. They are well coached and have key pieces back from last years team that lost a heartbreaker to sheldon 47-46. And if Wojcik wasn't committed to Siena I think a lot of other schools would have come into the mix.
