Dang!

Second round Sub-Districts:

Friday 02/26/99:
Vashon 62 vs Steilacoom 65 -- in Overtime..

I think the Pirates played a good game against a team with a powerful full court press; a strong trap; and an uncanny sixth sense that lets them flash into the passing lane.
And then you add Naaman Hinton (16pts) -- I talked to his dad after the game, and he says Naaman is better at soccer and is kinda just waiting for basketball to get over with -- scary..
I had (very roughly..) Derek Shride 20pt; Jesse Davis 13pt; Calvin Ento 12pt; Kenny Ento 8pt; Jeff Tucker 6pt; Jerod Cleland 3pt
We were down but stayed in the game and fought back to a tie; we were just three points short in overtime.
At the quarters: Q1 16V-17S; Q2 24V-32S; Q3 41V-47S; Q4 55V-55S; OT1 62V-65S

	Tipoff! To Steilacoom...
Derek Shride ended up with 20 points!
	Dang! Inside position...
Jerod Cleland hit 3 in freethrows


	Danny Speer and friend at the half!
Jeff Tucker drives for 2!


	Fouled shooting a 3, Jesse Davis makes it 48-51; then 49-51...
...and then 50-51! This can be done!


	So here we go again! Overtime! [I'm sorry - I was too excited to take any good pictures.. -- Hey! I get to watch the game!]
We were kept out of the low post pretty effectively, which meant that Calvin was held to 12 points. Steilacoom's zone defense kept the ball on the perimeter, and they picked up a lot of turnovers, not really from our errors, but from their attack on the pass. At the quarters: Q1 16V-17S; Q2 24V-32S; Q3 41V-47S; Q4 55V-55S; OT1 62V-65S	Dang!
