Finally made it over to Gainbridge Fieldhouse to watch the evening portion of the IHSAA Boys Basketball State Finals which features the Class 3A Championship game at 6 pm followed by the Class 4A Championship game around 8:15 pm.
Earlier today, North Daviess defeated Lafayette Central Catholic in double OT to win the Class 1A Championship and Providence won the Class 2A Championship defeating Central Noble in the process.
The Class 3A Championship will feature Beech Grove (21-6) versus Mishawaka Marian (24-3). Both schools are led by two outstanding power forwards each with Anthony Ball (BG) and Kaleo Kakalia (MM).
The Class 4A Championship which feature a huge clash of dominant schools as undefeated Chesterton (29-0) will face the stacked team of Cathedral (25-6). Obviously the name that we are more focused on here is Cathedral's Xavier Booker (2023, PF) who #iubb has made one of their top priorities trying to fill the 2023 recruiting class. I have will have more in depth notes on Booker's performance in this thread once the 4A Finals gets going.
The High School season is about to wrap up in the next few hours and we have two very good games to end it on coming up in less than an hour!
