Cathoic V. Seymour

[RwoodTigersIn02]

Sure Matt Parton didnt have the greatest offensive show during the district tournament, but I will take the way he plays defense and the way he handles the ball when the game is on the line over any guard that I have seen this season. Lets be honest during the district tournament all the other coaches had one thing on their minds dont let Matt Parton beat you with the 3ball, but he managed to find a way to put Catholic in position to win by scoring 4 or 5 in a row when needed or by taking the other teams point out of the equation by playing defense, the kid simply tooking a beating physically in the district tournament but at the the end of every game he kept the Catholic offense under control and when it gets crunch time not many teams seem to be as under control as the Irish. Solid coaching, tough D, Post players that are relentless, and a guard that leads by example are qualities of a good ball club. True the well have their hands full with Seymour and the other 3 from the other district, but as always when the Irish are on the court its not how many points they score, but its how many they allow you to score. Irish basketball is all about defense and 5 straight 20 win seasons seem to tell you that they are doing something right. Good Luck Catholic! and maybe the region tournament is when the "Matt Parton Show" begins.
