Team Summary:

Vashon was ahead 34-30 at the break. Chaminade wouldn’t go away and outscored Vashon 23-16 in the third quarter. They didn’t give up and came up a little short and the four year wait for this game was worth it. They have a solid team and could be the best team in the area but not tonight.

Chaminade was down by four at the half and out scored Vashon by seven in the third quarter to be winning 53-50 after three quarters and never lost the lead in the fourth quarter. They have a solid team about six deep. They stayed in the zone most of the game and worked out for them since there is better athletes on the Vashon side. They had four people in double figuresand won the turnover and second chance points battle. They moved up to the top spot on my rankings.

Team Summary:

Howell slowed down the game and shot the ball very well but missed ten free throws that cost them the game. They didn’t deserve to lose. They were outmanned and never gave up. They were out rebounded and was killed on second chance points.

Central never gave up and out rebounded and won the turnover battle. Central’s #23) Cameron Williams was definitely the MVP of the game and kept them in the game.

Key Stats:
Howell:
#1) Daylan Dalton G SR 5’6″ 25 pts 2pt: 9/12 3pt: 1/3 FT: 4/6 4 assists Good Game

#11) Xavier Ball G SR 6’7″ 14 pts 2pt: 5/9 3pt: 0/2 FT: 4/6 8 rebounds quiet 14 points

The high school game needs a shot clock. If anybody has a question about this should watch this game.
After the game there was a problem with the coaches. I think the problem wasn’t one sided but it looked very bad and security had to step in. It just didn’t look good for high school sports .
