  • Spring Sports, NIL, and a 5-Headed Goat?!

    Spring sports are rolling, and South River’s teams are coming in hot. AD David Klingel drops by to talk baseball, softball, lacrosse domination, and why eight percent of the school is now running track. We relive the epic girls’ basketball title run (spoiler: five buses of screaming students helped), debate Duke’s chances in March Madness, and wonder if NIL has turned college sports into the Wild West. Oh—and yes, there’s a five-headed goat. Don’t ask, just listen.

  • March Madness

    In this episode of Hawk Talk, South River High School's girls basketball coach Mike Zivik shares the exhilarating story behind their state championship win, outlining a journey from a challenging 2-5 start to ultimate glory at the University of Maryland. The episode delves into the team's development over the season, highlighting the strategic coaching, mental resilience, and unwavering community support that fueled their success. Coach Zivik’s tactical use of the team’s depth to wear down opponents played a pivotal role, particularly in the championship game, where South River’s frequent rotation of players contrasted sharply with their opponent's reliance on a few key starters, setting the stage for a dramatic fourth-quarter comeback.

    The championship's setting added an extraordinary dimension to the victory, as the team walked the same tunnels as Big Ten legends, buoyed by the vibrant support of five busloads of fans from their hometown and the local community cheering from The Turtle in Edgewater. Coach Zivik highlighted the psychological strength of the team, emphasizing their ability to stay positive and composed under pressure, which was crucial to their comeback and ultimate victory. This episode not only celebrates their tactical success but also paints a vivid picture of the emotional and community-driven aspects that contributed to their memorable championship run.

    This episode also marks an exciting transition for Hawk Talk as host Tom Frank welcomes new co-hosts Grey Frank and Jaden McDuffie, who bring fresh energy and perspective to the show. Their enthusiastic participation in a March Madness draft competition adds a fun, interactive element that basketball fans will appreciate as they debate tournament predictions and strategies.

    Whether you're a South River Seahawk supporter, a basketball enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates stories of perseverance and triumph, this championship celebration episode delivers authentic insights into what makes a winning team both on and off the court.
