Eldorado Basketball head coach Josh Bradley talked with Matt Varney before practice on Thursday.  The team and coaches are all wearing masks but otherwise Coach Bradley is preparing the Eagles like nothing has changed.  Coach and Varney talk about preparing for the season, how their 2019-2020 campaign ended on a buzzer beater, sophomore guard Parker Price, the Eldorado Holiday Tournament hanging on to hope, and more!

We talked to Saluki senior center Barret Benson about the Dawgs' current win streak, his history with the Mullins family, and his role as a senior leader on a club full of newcomers.

IHSA Executive Director Craig Anderson spoke with Matt Varney about some of the burning questions surrounding Illinois High School Athletics during the era of COVID-19.  Why must IHSA ask for control of decision-making back when they are not a government entity? How can basketball players play while being expected to wear a face mask?  Is there any hope for fall sports like football, volleyball, and boy's soccer returning this fall?  All those and more questions were answered in this interview.
