As a coaching staff we came into this game thinking that we would win. We wanted to work on some things and give our second team guys a chance to play. We had been having second and third team guys to step up and we wanted to see how they would respond outside of practice.
The varsity came out with another plan, they wanted to see how poor they could play. They didn't pay any attention to any of the instructions that Coach Brent had given them in pre-game talks. We played a poor first half, the half-time score was 21-20 on a Deville Smith 3 pointer at the buzzer. One of the only bright spots in an otherwise poorly plyed first half.
The fans from Vicksburg stayed after their game to watch us play, all of their fans left after half time because of how bad we were playing. It was good that they left because they didn't get a chance to see how fired up we came out for the 3rd quarter.
We had our best second half of the season. We scored 48 points in the second half, and turned a sloppy 1st half into a blowout by beating the Vikings 70-39. We had a chance to play our bench and they really enjoyed themselves. It was rewarding because a couple of the seniors that would normally not play got a chance to score and have some fun.
Record: 5-4
next up: Vicksburg
