Episode 9 - "The Calendar Turns to January: New Year's Edition"

In this episode of the State of Hoops podcast, hosts Todd Schlekeway and Nate Malchow reflect on the New Year and discuss the various high school basketball classics that took place over the Christmas/Holiday season. With high school teams now having a month's worth of games under their belt, Episode 9 also unveils the "Chalk Talk" segment, where Todd and Nate discuss the importance of ball reversals to mitigate over-dribbling and to foster greater efficiency offensively in the half court. As always, we close the episode with the Show-Out Shout-Out Segment and a big thanks to our sponsors who keep the game going.The State of Hoops Podcast Season 1 Sponsors include the ⁠South Dakota High School Basketball Hall of Fame⁠, ⁠Tiefenthaler Homes with Hegg Real Estate,⁠ ⁠Park Bench Apparel,⁠ ⁠Charles Schwab – Sioux Falls (Lonnie Struckman and Zach Hanson Financial Consultants),⁠ and ⁠Insight.⁠ Basketball fans in the state are encouraged to interact with the podcast hosts via e-mail at [email protected] and follow, like, subscribe, and engage with the State of Hoops Podcast on the following social media platforms: *YouTube Channel:@StateofHoopsPodcast *Instagram: @state_of_hoops_podcast *X: @StateofHoopsPod
