- This week we’ve seen the team at their best and at their worst and we won both games.
- Of the two, pulling out the bad game is probably the most impressive. Not only did it take guts when the other team seemed primed for an upset but we had to resort to our defense to win it and it worked. We held them to 7 for 21, 2 for 10 from three in the second half and stole the ball 10 times, with 21 takeovers.
- People were down on Joe Girard but he basically won this game for us, scoring 21 points, including 9 for 9 from the line and got a huge steal and charge, (although they ruled it a travel instead) at the end to give us the lead we needed. Every player on this team will have his moments, good and bad but we will need them all to get through this schedule.
- Quincy Guerrier was a man among boys with 18 points and 16 rebounds. He was 6 for 10 from the field, which reduced his shooting percentage to 69% this year. 7 of his rebounds came on the offensive boards.
- Marek Dolezaj was again solid with 14 points, 4 rebounds, as assist and a steal. He was 7 for 13 from the field and Jim said that he does things on defense the fans don’t see.
- We only had 10 turnovers, a season low and that made us +11 in that stats.
- We made 22 of 26 free throws and needed pretty much all of them.
- We won’t be going 2 for 18 from three the rest of the season.
5-1 with 21+ to go
LET’S GO ORANGE!!!
