Carbondale boys basketball coach Jim Miller is ready to begin prowling the sidelines after retiring back in 2021.  He and the Terriers tip off the season tonight at the Roxana Hoopsgiving Classic vs. Bethalto Civic Memorial at 6pm.

That game will be heard on our sister station, Newsradio WJPF 107.9 FM.

The Carterville Lions impressed last week with wins over Vienna and Herrin.  That earned them the Team of the Week award.  The Lions also earned the #1 seed at the Eldorado Holiday Tournament with those wins.  Matt Varney and Coach Shane Hawkins discussed the big win over Herrin and the top seed at this year's EHT on this week's podcast.
