Audio Interview with Springfield boys basketball coach Bill Slagle
SPRINGFIELD — The wait is over.
The Springfield High School boys basketball team will debut in front of what will likely be a packed house at the new gymnasium against Lakota East on Friday, Dec. 5 at 8 p.m.
But the biggest challenge will be molding two former teams together as one. It worked well on the football field, with the Wildcats barely missing out on a playoff berth, but will it translate to the hardwood?
The Wildcats return two seniors, Zac Burks and Lucas Smith, and have a boatload of speed and athleticism. They’ll have to mesh together quickly — the ‘Cats play four games in eight days to start the season.

Once again Brian Plaster tries to act like he cares about South with his wiz thing today and once again he makes himself look like the zombie guy with no thoughts. Him going to the sectional finals in his first year at South a suprise! Everyone expected it! I wasn’t shocked. Go watch Southeastern or something.By Donald Brownly

Southeastern would easily beat Springfield this year.
