This week on Hoop Troop and Shooters Touch, we dive deep into girls postseason play with the Class 3A girls state tournament field officially set!

3A Girls State Qualifiers:
Mt. Vernon, Cherokee, Dubuque Wahlert, Williamsburg, Maquoketa, Mediapolis, Des Moines Christian, and Forest City.

We break down what that bracket looks like, plus take a look at how the other girls classes are shaping up — especially the always competitive 4A class where multiple teams are still in the hunt for a banner.

The big news on the boys side: Matt Baker, head boys coach at Woodward-Granger, joins us to help break down the 1A and 2A brackets. He talks about teams his squad faced, who he likes in each class, and even gives us his picks for the 3A and 4A championship matchups.

We also spin the Hoop Troop Wheel of Death with random questions sprinkled throughout the episode, plus all your favorites:

• Tommy’s Shoutout (and yes — he’s getting FLOODED with Lunch League Legend suggestions!)

• Doug’s Pick of the Week

And in case you missed it — Sioux City’s food scene gets a shoutout too

This one was fun and packed from start to finish. If you love Iowa high school basketball, brackets, predictions, and personality-driven segments, this is a can’t-miss episode.

Hoops in Iowa — let’s go. Shooters shoot.
