T-Net 2nd Match

On 30th May, RI C Div team played it's 2nd match of the T-Net tournament
Final Score:
RI (A) 24-55 Catholic High
RI (B) 22-36 Pierce Secondary

For team A, this match was extremely disappointing for us, as we felt that we were able to challenge last years champions and potentially beat them in our first meeting of the year.
The match started off brightly with RI leading 5-0 in the opening minutes, but by the end of the first quarter, we were down by 7 points.
With their 3 tallies, Cat High out-rebounded, out-scored and when on a 10-0 run in the middle of the second quarter.
We didn't play particularly well in the 2nd half and we lost the game by 30 points.

Most important lesson:
TALK--we needed to communicate (whether its on defense, offense, helping or whatsoever)

For team B, quoting from Ryan Chin on the C Div Blog:
"hi guys, just an update about team b's match against peirce sec on 29th may. lost by 14 points 36-22. points were mainly given up coz of steals and fastbreaks by our opponents. they used the full-court trap for most of the game, which we didnt know really well how to break it and so we gave up many points because of mis-passes under pressure, and interceptions. we also lost out in rebounds, we are not boxing-out properly, and not going for the rebounds, ending up with our opponents getting the offensive rebound and putting it back into the basket. Well, we have learnt our lesson. we'll do better for the next match. =)"
