For the first time in what is believed to be more than a decade, live play-by-play of girls high school basketball
is returning to the Quad Cities! QCSportsNet.com, the leading provider of high school sports in the Quad
Cities, is pleased to announce live coverage of all girls basketball state tournament games involving Rock Island
and Pleasant Valley high schools, presented by the Wheelan-Pressly family of funeral homes in Rock Island,
Milan, and Reynolds. This is in addition to QCSportsNet's current programming of complete regular season
and state tournament coverage of the Rock Island, Pleasant Valley, and United Township boys teams.
The girls tournaments begin in mid-February, making it five teams with championship aspirations that
QCSportsNet will carry live for as far as they go in their quest to make it to the Final Four. On the girls side,
Rock Island (20-3, #6 in Illinois Class 4A) and Pleasant Valley (9-3, #15 in Iowa Class 5A) are having excellent
seasons, as are, on the boys side, Rock Island (12-3, #8 in Illinois Class 4A), United Township (15-4, Honorable
Mention in Illinois Class 4A), and Pleasant Valley (12-0, #2 in Iowa Class 4A).
“I think that sounds great,” said Rock Island girls coach Thad Hoover about the news. “Excited to have the
coverage.”
In addition to Wheelan-Pressly (www.wheelanpressly.com), participating sponsors include Crawford Company
Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning (www.crawford-company.com); and Blackhawk Bank & Trust
(www.choosethechief.com). Tournament sponsorship plans are available for as low as $12 per game, for all
games up to and including the Final Four.
