7th Grade Blue-January 22-23

The guys kicked off a great weekend of play with an intense battle against the Hurricanes. A game where we were physically out played on both the offensive and defense boards, the guys learned both the importance of shot faking, and creating contact when a shot goes up (boxing out). Game two vs the Davis Wild Cats started the same for two quarters going into halftime with an 18 point deficit. At half time, the importance of ignoring the score and coming out more physical was stressed. The guys bought in and finished the third quarter holding the Wildcats scoreless for the entire quarter! We went on to win with physical play from all of our guys, especially Mike Dowen (bloody lip), Cole Kelley (shiner in the eye) and Jack Kearns (boxing out the bigs). Alex Patton had a stand out game with 12 points and a great up and under move down low. The third game was a great game from the start putting pressure on EDH and gaining a 15 point lead early on. We won by 20 points. All in all a great weekend 2-1 in D1 bracket!
