Thursday Championship Night Wrap Up

Thumb Tailgater Sports is on the road again for a live internet audio webcast on Thursday to wrap up the regular season of boys basketball coverage. Tonights it is a championship game in Vassar as they hope to take the outright Greater Thumb West title, with a win over the Reese Rockets. It's not going to be easy though, as the Rockets played spoiler for the Bay City All Saints on their bid for a share of the GTW. Reese took down the Cougars on Tuesday night, ripping them 71 - 61.
However!! Would the West be in this position had it not been the controversy with the clock not running at the end of last Fridays game between the Vulcans @ Cougars game? You decide!

The Vassar Vulcans did it's job on Monday to take a hold of the West with a close victory over Unionville-Sebewaing 42 - 41. Will the Reese Rockets play spoiler again tonight at Vassar? Coverage at 7:30pm! 
Special guests tonight on Thumb Tailgater Sports will be WLEW FM Fall Sports color commentator JJ Particka & Sports Writer/Reporter, Paul Adams of the Huron Daily Tribune. 
Carsonville-Port Sanilac hopes to wrap it's claim to the NCTL South Title tonight over Dryden - but Peck still has thoughts of a share of the title as long as they win out and CPS loses two straight.
Just to note, there are a couple games to wrap the thumb area boys basketball season as a whole on Friday & Saturday.
