Beaver

The Bobcats went up the road to the home of the Blackhawk Cougars and in front of a big crowd showed that they are a team that can play, Blackhawk came out and hit a three pointer on their first shot but that was the last lead of the game for the Cougars on senior night for Blackhawk. The first couple of quarters where what Bruce Frey described as street ball with both teams running and gunning up and down the court. The first quarter Beaver went up 14 to 7, the second quarter was fast paced and Beaver was playing a two three zone and it was causing Blackhawk to turn the ball over many times . The third quarter Blackhawk started to make a comeback getting the lead down to 11 points but the Bobcats kept making shots and finished the game off going away with the win 63 to 39. Mike Azadian and Bruce Frey had the call on 99.3 FM 95.7 FM and WBVP/WMBA and world wide on Beaver County Radio.

Analysis: NFL wasn’t at its best in conference championships

The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs prevailed on championship weekend to reach Super Bowl 57. But the NFL didn’t exactly have a stellar weekend as infuriating flags and non-calls dominated both the NFC and AFC title games. The NFC championship was a blowout because the San Francsico 49ers lost all their quarterbacks. An emergency third quarterback would have come in handy Sunday but the league and its players ditched the third quarterback designation more than a decade ago. The AFC title game went down to the wire but questionable calls including an intentional grounding on Joe Burrow proved crucial.

Patrick Mahomes finally got the best of Joe Burrow. All he needed was a little shove. Harrison Butker made a 45-yard field goal with 3 seconds left — after Cincinnati’s Joseph Ossai was flagged for a 15-yard penalty for shoving Mahomes after he was out of bounds — and the Chiefs beat the Bengals 23-20 in the AFC championship game to make it back to the Super Bowl. Kansas City will face the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl on Feb. 12 in Glendale, Arizona. The Eagles clobbered the Niners 31-7 in the NFC title game earlier Sunday. They’ve looked dominant in the playoffs so far, beating the New York Giants 38-7 in the divisional round.

The Tigers Win They Knock Neshannock 52 43

The Beaver Falls Tigers and the Nesannock Lancers battled from the jump in a very physical hard fought game by both teams with pushing shoving words being exchanged through out the game with one t called on Beaver Falls probably to get things calmed down. As Mike Azadian who had the call along with Joe Sager on color described the game as rock um sock um, and it sounded like both teams were playing very hard with playoff spots on the line in front of a big crowd from both schools showing up to support their home teams. It was a very low scoring game in the first quarter and with the Tigers hitting a buzzer beater to take a 13 10 lead  after the first quarter.  The second Quarter was all beaver Falls getting their biggest lead of the game going into half in front 29 – 17 .The third  quarter the Lancers came out and forced 6 turnovers off the Tigers to get the Tigers coach’s attention for who let his team know that their play was unacceptable. They played a very strong forth quarter keeping their cool under pressure and it payed of for the Tigers by not making the big mistakes that often  cause a team to lose a close game the final score Beaver Falls 52 Neshannock 43. The game was heard here at WBVP WMBA and 99.3 FM and 95.7 FM with Mike Azadian And Joe Sager on the call.

LINCOLN PARK TURNS UP THE HEAT THIS ROUND WITH THE BOBCATS FINAL SCORE 76 59

IN FRONT OF A SOLD OUT CROWD AT BEAVER HIGH GYM THE LINCOLN PARK LEAOPARDS BEAT THE BEAVER BOBCATS IN GAME THAT WAS CLOSE FOR THE FIRST 2 QUARTERS.  WITH ONLY 2 POINTS BETWEEN THE TWO AT THE END OF THE FIRST IT SEEMED IT COULD BE A REPEAT OF THE LAST GAME WHICH LINCOLN PARK GOT THE LAST SHOT TO WIN A GREAT GAME. BUT LINCOLN PARK KNEW COMING INTO BEAVER IN FRONT OF A SOLD OUT CROWD THAT THEY BETTER TRY TO KEEP THE BOBCATS FROM GETTING ANY RYTHYM AND BY MID SECOND QUARTER THEY STARTED TO PUT SOME DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HIGHLY RESPECTED BEAVER TEAM. THE  LEAOPARDS WENT INTO THE HALF WITH A LEAD OF 37-28 AND YOU  COULD SEE MAYBE LINCOLN PARK WAS GETTING IN THE GROOVE AND SOME OF THEIR STAR POWER WAS STARTING TO SHOW. IN THE SECOND HALF BEAVER MAY HAVE BEEN PLAYING A LITTLE BIT LIKE A TEAM THAT MAY HAVE BEEN GETTING SOME HEAVY ARMS BECAUSE THE SHOTS JUST WEREN’T FALLING AND THE LEAOPARDS WERE POURING ON PRESSURE AND THE BEAVER BOBCATS WEREN’T LOOKING LIKE THEMSELVES WITH THEIR SECOND TOUGH GAME IN AS MANY WEEKS. WE ALL  CAN EXPECT TO SEE LINCOLN PARK IN THE POST SEASON AND FOR A VERY GOOD BEAVER TEAM THEY NEED TO GET BACK TO THE BASICS AND SHAKE THIS GAME OFF AGAINST WHAT I WOULD THINK IS ONE OF BEST TEAMS THEY WILL SEE ALL YEAR.

US appeals court to weigh NCAA case over pay for athletes

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The NCAA hopes a federal appeals court will soon block a lawsuit that seeks to treat athletes as employees who are paid for their time. It is the latest test of amateurism in college sports. The Division I athletes who filed the suit being argued next month want hourly wages similar to those earned in work-study programs. They say the nation’s colleges are violating fair labor practices by failing to pay them for the time they put into their sports. Baylor University President Linda Livingston, chairperson of the NCAA’s Board of Governors, says the idea would have a “potentially catastrophic impact on college sports.”
