"I got about four hours of sleep last night."

Seneca Valley grad Easton Bazzoli still hasn't slept much since leading Gannon men's basketball to its first NCAA Division II title a week ago. Is it the recruiting, the celebration or raising a 3-year-old? The former Raiders standout hops on the pod to talk about a whirlwind season and what's next.

But before that, Jake and Brendan (Derek is on vacation this week) talk swimming and wrestling all-county teams and break down the stars from the 2025-26 season.

Finally, did you know the NFL draft is coming up? Jake gives Brendan a Eagle-Steelers-themed trivia question with a twist, and they break down some of the options and scuttlebutt (good word) for the Steelers at No. 21. Tune in next week for our full 2026 NFL Draft preview.

"What do you got there, Brendan?"

Jake finally pays off his debt from the fantasy football season, much to Brendan's full stomach's content. He chows down while we break down our decisions for the Butler Eagle all-county boys and girls basketball teams, including players of the year Teegan Finucan (Knoch) and Madison Romanovich (Slippery Rock). Did we make the right calls? Who else could've made the team?

Then, Mars grad Jackson Krock joins the show, still coming down from the euphoria of winning the NCAA Division III hockey championship with Hamilton and shares some stories of winning the natty and the US-Canada rivalry on the team.

Mars football and track star Brad Mueller is heading to the Butler County Sports Hall of Fame this month. The former Boston College running back who later went to Slippery Rock University joined us in studio to relive some of his favorite memories as head enters the hall.

But before that, a food debate leads to ... well ... something. We get "real," and maybe a little TMI.

Please some recaps on the Butler County Classic, a Seneca Valley grad leading Gannon men's basketball to the NCAA Division II championship game and JJ Wetherholt's unbelievable MLB debut.
