6th Grade Blue-May 8th

We went 2-1 in a strong D1 one day tournament.


Our first game we won by a bucket that Everett Libolt made in the last seconds of the game. We played a team that we had lost to the last time we played them. They had a tall line-up but we were able to keep up
with them with good team play. Our guards penetrated well and our bigs finished well. Our Rebounding is getting better which helped us get the win.

Our Second game we won by 3 to a team that we have not seen before. We were up in the beginning but went down after the half. We got back up in the 4th and hung on to win. The team played team ball to get all
involved in the game.

The last game we came out and played the other team that was 2-0 and we played lethargic. we were down 18 at the half. We put on our trap press and got back to with in 10 by the fourth, but we ran out of steam and ended losing to a more aggressive team. We abandoned our team play and tried to beat them individually.

Though we went 2-1, the coaches our proud on how the team played over all and will use the one loss as a driver for the next tournament. We know the team is playing at a higher level and we have to keep pushing
into Reno.
