The 2010 Girl's State Basketball Webcast Awards
By: Gary Jones
Before I list the awards, let me explain something that came up in the comments last year. Glenn and I sit at the Idaho Center for the entire state tourney. On Thursday and Friday, we watch the 5A teams, and then on Super Saturday we watch the six state title games. These awards are only based on the teams we see at the Idaho Center. There may be an awesome pep club, for instance, that did a great job but never made it to the Idaho Center. Since we never saw them, they could not be listed on this awards page. Some people don’t like the fact some teams or players are excluded, but our purpose for doing these awards is to give some teams and players some recognition and we can only recognize the teams and players we see. So, with that said, here goes……

But, on a larger scale, how long can Idaho justify having six classifications of schools?
Let me throw out some questions here - questions that I don't know all the answers for:

The Mercy Rule In Basketball
By: Gary Jones
I was watching a basketball game recently at New Plymouth and I was surprised to see a running clock when we had a 30 pt lead. I was not aware that the IHSAA had begun a new “mercy” rule this year in basketball. When a team gets ahead by 30 points or more in the 4th quarter, the clock keeps running. If it dips below 30 the clock will continue to run until the game is over. I have a brief suggestion for the IHSAA: get rid of this rule ASAP.

Idaho's biggest INDOOR tournament coming in March
By: Vince Hordemann
Thanks to the success of BAM Jam over the past two years, we have created a spring version that will be this March 13 inside Taco Bell Arena at Boise State University (www.bamjamboise.com).
Last summer, nearly 200 teams and 750 players participated in the August BAM Jam in downtown Boise in the BoDo area. Thanks to the participation and great sponsors we were able to donate over $2,000 to charity.
