It should be easier to get the ball inside. It depends on how Maize wants to defend us down low.
We shot 6 of 43 from the field and we have struggled shooting the ball throughout the season. We had a lead in the fourth quarter but ... then Hanson made a 3 to win them the game. I am pleased with our defensive improvements from previous games.
They are a team that likes to feed the ball inside. I know, because we got into foul trouble against them.
We drove the ball the length of the field and scored, so that showed me that we're coming around on offense. We were fairly effective running the ball what we wanted to. I just wish we could fire on all cylinders more often.
We did a much better job of taking care of the ball against the press. But they came out on fire and really lit it up. I was amazed at some of the baskets they made.
They tore us up in the first half. They really shot the ball well. Their starters are tall and there was not anything we could do about it.
Down the stretch, they shot the ball better from the free throw line. We played outstanding defense and controlled the pace of the game. I could not be more proud of my team.
