6th Grade Blue-May 21-22

Our first game was a good game for us. We played a tough team from the Bay area, and it was the first time we ever saw them. We came out very strong and hungry. We played great defense and got out quick with many fast break points. We dominated the boards and outlet great. We won 49 to 33.

Our second game was a different story. Even though we played hard, we did not execute like the first game. We lost on defense and on the rebounding. We looked lethargic at the beginning and were down 17 at the half. We made run in the fourth but the lead was to much. We lost to a team we had beat twice the last two games we played them. We lost 54-40.

In our last game we were up set and took it out on our last team. It was a small but scrappy team. We went into the first half with a 15 point lead. Our zone was very strong and they could not score on us. In the second half the other team came out strong and closed with in 6 in the fourth. We regrouped and added a couple more to win. We won 44-35.

Overall we did good going into Reno. If the boys can play team ball for 4 games in Reno, we will win. If we do not then we will not. They are as ready as they can be. It is all up to them and how hungry they are to win in Reno. We think all of the teams in our bracket are beatable.

This is the first year of the last 3 years that I feel confident that we are good enough to win in Reno.

God Bless all of the YBA teams going to Reno!
