EHE Guardians @ Oakwood Eagles

The JV girls started off the night strong by starting the game on a 17-0 run. The defense for this team sparked the offense with many fast breaks usually leading to baskets. The main contributers to these fast breaks were Caitlin Cash, Tanya Mann, Caroline Denton and Audrey Birchfield. Andrea McConnell also contributed to this first half route with some beautiful jumpers. With the first half coming to a close Audrey Birchfield who was pulled up from the middle school team to play because of some injuries intercepted a pass and took it all the way to the other end of the court beating the buzzer with a layup. The second half was not much different than the first. Kaitlyn O'Brien had 6 second half points all coming off offensive rebounds. Aryn Baxa also played an excellent game and was very close to scoring off of two free throws. They played a great game and came away with a win in their first game of the year.

The JV Boys were hampered with injuries and sicknesses coming into their game. Will had a 102 degrree fever and I sprained my ankle. Matt Harms was under the weather also and was limited in his amount of playing time because of it. On the first play of the game MO drove to the basket and missed a layup. Things did not look good for a few minutes. Coach called a timeout and calmed everyone down. From then on it was the MO and Caleb show. They took their men to the basket and scoring about every time. Right before the end of the first quarter Anthony Porter intercepted an inbounds pass and hit a fadeaway jumper to beat the halftime buzzer. This took us to the highest point total weve ever had in the first half of a game at 28 points. The second half was not much different from the first with MO and Caleb dominating and John Compton adding an extra 5 points. Near the end of the half Oakwood made a run while the second string was in. It wasnt nearly enough to pull it out though. PC and Elliot were both very close to scoring each going 0-2 from the field. It is definately the best game we have played all year which means we are playing better every game. I will not post anything for the next two games because I will not be here but I hope we do well. Go GUARDIANS!!!
