From the opening tip we knew we were in for a challenge even though 3 of Tabernacles starters could not play. On the opening tip a 5"6 black point guard outjumped a 6"5 Matt Harms to win the tip. Matt didnt do bad at all the other kid just had mad hops. The madness continued when the small point guard intercepted a pass and darted down the court for an acrobatic layup. This rattled our team a bit and after the first quarter we were down 8-5. The first quarter highlight was Peter Howard driving all the way to the goal for an excellent layup. The second quarter was back and forth but we had edged out a 17-16 lead due to the excellent shooting of Mo Will and Peter. In the third quarter it looked as if we had pulled away and were going to win, due to Mo hitting 5-6 free throwns in about a minute. Tabernacle did not go down. Their point guard led them on a run until it was a tie ball game. With 20 seconds left the little point guard pick-pocketed Will and rushed down the court for a layup tp tie the game at 41. We brought the ball down the court and gave it to Caleb down low. He missed a layup but got his rebound and put it back up and got fouled. He made two free throws to put us up 43-41. Tabernacle brought the ball down and their point guard drove towards the goal and I drew the charge. Game over right. No it was called a block and Tabernacle had 2 more seconds to win the game or tie. They threw the ball in and were trapped in a corner to end the game. It wasnt our best game but we still got out of there with a win. Our next game is Friday @ Oakwood.
