Coach's Comments
The second overtime game this week went our way as we battled back from a 58 - 52 deficit with 4 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. We had five players in double figures in scoring for the first time this season with Chris Groetsch, Nate Ridgeway, Justin Pryor, Isiah Warfield and Declan Hickton. Declan and Chris each registered double doubles with double digit rebounds.
With Laurel losing last night there are four teams tied for first place in the section with 3 - 1 records. It is going to be a battle all season which is both exhausting and so much fun!
