Game 12: St. Joe's

Just a dumb pass by Owens.  Too risky at this point of the game.  Hand it off to Ponds and go from there!

Would like to see Clark and Yakwe go offense/defense as much as possible here

Get a stop here and it becomes about free throws.

why is ponds going back door go get the ball in your hands

Can't let up a 3

Would like to see Clark and Yakwe go offense/defense as much as possible here

And just like that, Newkirk hits a little floater as Clark stands still in the lane and doesn't even attempt to block or alter it

need to make foul shots ....still 1-1

Yeah really dumb decision by Owens there. You got a 4 point lead and you should be milking the clock.

hate to say it but I smell OT. Hope not and we hang on

Exactly!  Not smart.

Two point lead here, so time to play smart and make our FTs.

That looked close.  Time to make our freebies.

Simon run the baseline get an angle

Ballgame!

10-2!!!!!!!!

game time, FTs

Take it! St. Joe's played well, especially Newkirk, tough Cardinal Hayes kid.

PHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Breathing a big sigh of relief.

10-2 is looking sweet. Now time for BE play.

Whew. Good job closing this one out and taking care of business. Now the real fun starts next week

STill bearing solid teams like this, and without our starting PG... a good sign.  We need a healthy Lovett hopefully soon...
