Jessica winning the tip against Western HS
Lay up for two
Lay up for two
Look at her reach!
Jessica is defense all the way!
2 points for Jessica!
Western is a tough team from the other side of town. They didn't really have a lot of tall players (actually two were really short) but they could handle the ball and shoot a 3 pointer.
The game started out great with NOHS taking an early lead. The other coach called a time out within less than one minute of the game. This was going to be a much more challenging team than the one they played in the morning.
We had a strong first quarter! Second quarter we got flat. It was like we couldn't buy a basket. On top of that the referees weren't very consistent in their calls. After half time the girls were back! Scoring and passing well. They fought their way back to being only one point down at the end of the quarter. We had a bit of bad luck as well - we got a techical called on Meghan Welle for entering the court (even though the ref called her on). They scored 2 just at the end of the quarter). Fourth quarter the girls had a look of determination. They got down from a few three pointers, but Nicole Bryant fired two three pointers back at them. The score is 39 - 39 with only one minute left in the game. We get the ball. We are working it around trying to find the open person. They try to steal the ball, but Jessica comes up with it and passes to Lucy but then we lose control and the ball goes out of bounds. They get the ball with 39 seconds left. Time out called by the other coach. We know they are going to try to use up the clock and then fire a 3 point shot at the last second. Olivia comes up with a clean steal and drives and passes to Jessica. Jessica is at the elbow of the foul line - looks up and sees Lucy open under the basket, passes the ball, Lucy shoots and scores. 7 seconds left in the game - the other team can't get it down....WE WIN!!!!
1st quarter: 12 - 8
2nd quarter: 17- 20 (they took the lead) We were stuck at 17 points for a long time
3rd quarter: 28 - 29 (they are ahead by one)
4th quarter: 41 - 39 WE WIN!!!
Jessica's stats: 2 points, 10 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 assist, 1 blocked shot.
