We raced off to an early lead at the start of the game because of our press. However their main player managed to break our press a couple of times by dribbling down the sidelines. The first quarter ended 20-7.
In the second quarter, we were not able to trap them and allowed players to dribble down the middle and sidelines for easy layups. When they played a half court game they managed to hit a few threes as well. The halftime score was 33-19.

We wanted to focus on defense in the second half and we did just that. We pressed the opponents and prevented them from driving down the middle. As a result we converted many fastbreak points.We hit a few threes in the quarter as well.

In the fourth we fell back to a halfcourt press. We weren't able to trap well as the opposing players moved the ball very quickly and hit a few jumpshots. Our offense ran quite smoothly, hitting jumpshots and scoring on drives.

We have to work on our trapping the next game and communication on offense and defense. Sometimes players were confused and as a result led to the opponents scoring easy buckets.
