Anthony Leal, Bloomington South

LOCATION: Columbus North High School

TIME: Friday, March 6 at 7:30 PM ET

LIVE STREAM: TBA

2020 Indiana-signee Anthony Leal and the top-ranked team in 4A have had a magical season. Columbus North (18-5) awaits South on Friday in the second game at Columbus North, and presents the first real test for unbeaten Bloomington South (24-0).



Trey Galloway, Culver Academy

LOCATION: LaPorte High School

TIME: Friday, March 6, 6 PM ET

LIVE STREAM: Not available

In one of the most intriguing first-night match-ups across the state, 2020 Indiana-signee Trey Galloway and Culver Academy (16-4) squared-off against 2021 Indiana-target Blake Wesley and South Bend Riley (12-10).

Culver Academy handled Riley, holding Wesley to seven points in the first half.

Culver will have to get past either South Bend Adams (21-3) or Michigan City (17-6) in the final on Saturday night in a loaded grouping at LaPorte High School.

Culver Academy entered the week as the favorite.


Khristian Lander, Evansville Reitz 

LOCATION: Evansville North High School

TIME: Friday, March 6 at 6:30 PM ET

LIVE STREAM: Not available

The latest in-state commit for Archie Miller is five-star junior guard Khristian Lander. The Reitz Panthers enter the Sectional as the heavy favorites for the Sectional 16 crown and will get started Friday in the first game against an underrated Evansville Harrison (10-14) team that can't be discounted. Castle won the regular season showdown if Reitz can get past the Warriors.

Trey Kaufman, Silver Creek 

LOCATION: Corydon Central High School

TIME: Friday, March 6 at 6:00 PM ET vs North Harrison (17-5)

LIVE STREAM: Not available

Watch the IHSAA TV live stream of Wednesday's Silver Creek win over Charlestown, 88-51

The defending 3A state champions start their 3A title defense at Corydon where Trey Kaufman will lead Silver Creek (23-2) against North Harrison (17-5) in the second game on Friday.

3A's No. 1 team beat North Harrison at home back on December 13 by a score of 55-47, but NHHS could present the first real test for the Dragons.


Braden Smith 

Westfield sophomore Braden Smith is in action tonight and his game can be seen here. Westfield and Zionsville are set to tip at 7:30 ET.

The 5-foot-10 Smith is averaging 20 points, five assists and almost six rebounds a game against the 33rd-toughest schedule in the state.

He visited Indiana for the Iowa game.
