Raffles 31-48 Dunman Sec.

20th July, 4pm, at Clementi Sports Hall.

It was a do-or-die match today. Even though we 'died', our spirits are still high as we exit from the tournament.

We knew that it was going to be a tough match today. However, we told ourselves that even if we were going to lose, we would give it our all and would not go down without a fight.

We knew that Dunman High had a good centre. Thus, we wanted to deny him the ball and to box him out on rebounds as much as possible. We also knew that they had a good shooter, and so we wanted to have a hand on him to prevent him from taking uncontested shots.

We played good defense on their centre. However, it was not good enough and he still managed to get a hand full of offensive rebounds which he converted on most occasions.

We prevented their shooter from getting uncontested shots. Nevertheless, he still managed to score points from fast breaks and offensive rebound and put-back.

Overall, our defense was not as good as it was in previous games.

On offense, we scored our points mostly from fast breaks. We still ran our set plays and managed to hit three 3-pointers.

We fought hard for today's match but Dunman Sec was the better team.

Even though we are eliminated from the competition, we have gained much throughout this season. We have definitely matured as a team, became more bonded as a team, and last but not least, improved tremendously as a team. We are pleased to have made it this far, and we know that all our hard work have not gone to waste.
