Our first game wasn't as bad as it first looked. When we got down there the word on the court was that P. South was the early favorite to win the State's this year. We were completely out of the picture since the loss of our "stud"- as 1 coach put it. The 1st half was as bad as it looked as at one point we were down 13 points. With our starting post player playing in her first scrimmage and our starting PG having to sit out all summer due to knee problems they had an understandingly rough time. Still as bad as our rebounding was, we were only down 10 at the half.
Some adjustments to our defense got us back in the game and within tying the game but the my SG and SF got their fourth fouls. With them siiting out, that allowed P. South to get up to 8 and we cut it to 4 at the buzzer.
Strengths - Shooting was good, zone defenses and presses were good. Some players were asked to play out of position due to fouls and did a great job. Everybody got in the game and they all left us with good impressions about some aspect of their game.
Weaknesses - man defense was terrible, too many turnovers, NO rebounding.
Overall - Good possibility that this will be the worst game we will play. We left out of there as legitimate contenders for the state championship and with a lot more respect for us and among ourselves.
