<p>It is officially Regional Saturday for high school boys basketball and there are a TON of great games going on throughout the state. With that said, there is probably not going to be a bigger game throughout the state than the one we will have at the New Castle Regional than the heavyweight matchup between Fishers and Kokomo. Before we get to that game, we will first see some Class 1A action between Seton Catholic and Liberty Christian. Prep Hoops Indiana has boots on the ground for both games this afternoon. Below is the full game report for both games with a full recap of the outcome. </p>
