hc played great "team ball" last night the actually broke a press!!! i am happy for them they needed that win that knock WHH down to 3nd and McEwen to 2nd, skelton roper and hammond hit the boards hard last night with some good offensive rebounds and 2nd chance shots, featherstone and monroe sat most of the game due to foul trouble but played extremely well when played, to me it seemed they couldnt stop monroe from driving and scoring, ref's?? horrible on both ends, so now i guess u can say its anybodys chance in the tournament goodluck to all teams
HC loses Skelton and Barnes, which will be tough, but with whats returning, as you said " they may be making some noise " They have some younger boys who can step up on varsity next year too.
I was at the game but i am going to say that WHH got the raw end of the deal with the refs. HC did have one player foul out and two anothers in foul trouble, but WHH had 3 starters foul out, with the other two starters and three bench players also having four fouls apiece. HC was in the double bonus early in the second quater and in the third quater too. HC shot over 40 free throws according to the books while WHH only shot 12. This game was poorly called in favor of HC. I will however give HC credit they played hard, they made free throws, and they owned the boards offensively and defensivly, this had a major impact on the game. This was also probally the best game out of the 4 I have seen HC play this year. Another thing to verify is that Mcewen is still in third place. They must beat CA and WHH in the upcoming week to be in second place. WHH beat CA and Mcewen already, this means WHH will own either tiebreaker if Mcewen loses one of the two games. However if Mcewen wins both games they will finish in second.
