Brownsburg in the Finals

Brownsburg's (21-5) going to State and will play Marion (24-4) in the Championship game at Conseco on Saturday Night. I happened to watch their sectional final game vs. Decatur Central and they narrowly escaped that game with a three pointer with 5 seconds left. It doesn't matter what level you are playing at in any tourney, to get to the final game there must be some luck involved somehow. I am not downgrading anyone's ability or anything like that, but somewhere through the tourney there is usually at least one game where something happened to bounce a certain way for a team to win and it does. I think of last year in the NCAA tourney and I can't remember the guy's name that played for Ohio State, but he hit that long bomb. If that doens't happen, then they don't even come close to making it to the finals.

In the 1A game at 10:30
Triton vs Indianapolis Lutheran
2A @ 12:45
Fort Wayne Luers vs Winchester
3A @ 6:00
Fort Wayne Harding vs Washington
Coach Al Goodens Hawks made the jump to 3A this year and they still find a way to get to the championship game. The Hawks have 5 semi-state titals since 2001. That's a pretty good run
and of course in the 4A @ 8:15
is Brownsburg vs Marion.
