Marion Local (#1 seed in districts) will now play #2 Seed Spencerville on Friday in the District Finals at Wapak H.S.

for those excited about Luke Knapke this guy will probably need a redshirt and then a year or two before he contributes. He has some skill, but little strength even for the high school game. Can be a skilled 4 maybe by junior year. Adway, White and Jalean are the ones who could contribute right away with With Adway and Sanford the most probably. As far as Marion Local Wish them all the luck.

I agree. In fact, a redshirt and time in the weight/training program would likely do him wonders for his remaining years here. I also agree, from what I saw, that he plays more comfortably as a "4" or a Boothe-type high-post player. That's why I'd love to see us sign a true low-post presence yet.
