Some new video clips of note
Posted Saturday, February 9, at 3:03 AM
Someone asked recently in a blog response whether we had video of a Calvin Williams dunk in a SEMO men's basketball game. Thanks to the folks at Southeast Missouri State's video services department, we do. I've compiled three of Williams' recent impressive baskets into a highlight reel.

He can finish, no doubt.

You can also see Tony Samuel talk about the recruits he has signed for the class of 2008.

Looking for action? How about Cape Central's halftime show from Friday night's game against Sikeston. It was a coed affair of high entertainment value.

The best sporting action of the week may have come from the fourth period of Dexter's win at Notre Dame. The Bearcats beat ND, Cape Central and Perryville last week (and should get the Class 4 District 1 top seed).

Ought to be a dandy girls game Monday night when Dexter's physical defense tries to match up with visiting Poplar Bluff. Both teams thrive on creating turnovers and limiting the opposition's scoring chances.


And, in case you missed it over on www.semissourian.com, Southeast Missourian photographer Kit Doyle put together this slide show of fans at high school basketball games. Several photos of Central's Jungle, Notre Dame's Dawg Pound and Jackson's J Crue (which includes among the Indians' biggest supporters the area's top running back, Adam Zweigart).

What do you make of Scott Edgar's recruiting class for Southeast Missouri State men's basketball?

 Very encouraged; We're on our way to Nashville for OVC final four
 Very concerned; Could be a long season ahead
 Not sure yet; Taking a wait-and-see approach
