This season is presented by Little Caesars Pizza!

6.37 Features 2A State XC Champion Max Weber from Civic Memorial HS alongside his coach, Jake Peal. Weber, who just won the state meet 2 days ago, details his historic race and talks about the pressure he felt going into it and the plan he executed to perfection to pull off the win. Peal describes his team's MESPY-winning performance (9th place), and he talks about the great example Weber sets for his teammates.

Next up, for KP's Corner, we are joined by local sportswriter Dan Brannan, who manages Riverbender.com and Glen Ed Today. First Dave goes through the top team and individual performances at XC state last weekend for the Metro East boys and girls. Then, Dan, Kevin, and Dave go through last week's football playoff games. Kevin talks about his experience at the Carrollton vs. Dupo game, and Dave and Dan share their thoughts on the Greenfield vs. Calhoun overtime thriller. Dave describes the "Houner" vibe in detail. Next, KP points out several of last week's top performers on the gridiron, and then the guys mention the upcoming quarterfinals, including the battle between the two top-ranked small schools: Central at Cahokia.

Finally, Dave goes through the volleyball Super-Sectional matchups and the recently-completed soccer playoff highlights, including the Columbia 1A state championship.
