COMMENTS:
ST. CHARLES WERE WITHOUT THERE TOP SCORER NICK DEBEER LAST NIGHT WHICH IS HUGE.  THE PIRATES GOT OFF TO A SLOW START AND WAS DOWN 8-0 BEFORE THEY SCORED.  THEY HAD A 16-9 DEFICIT AFTER THE FORST QUARTER BUT ENDED UP ONLY DOWN ONE AT THE BREAK. THE PIRATES COULDN’T CONTAIN #30) DECAROLIS HE HAD 14 POINTS IN THE FIRST QUARTER AND 19 AT THE HALF, AND ENDED UP WITH 33 FOR THE GAME. THE PIRATES WERE OUTSCORED BY 11 POINTS IN THE THIRD QUARTER AND NINE IN THE FOURTH. THE TWO BRIGHT SPOTS WERE THE FRESHMAN TESON AND WIGGS. THE PIRATES ARE A SMALLER TEAM AND WAS BEATEN BADLY ON THE BOARDS LAST NIGHT.
#10) CAMERON TESON 5’8″ FRESHMAN  HAD 14 POINTS ALL IN THE 2ND HALF AND 11 OF THEM IN THE 4TH QUARTER. HE WAS A LITTLE INTIMINATED IN THE FIRST HALF BUT WAS A LOT MORE ASSERTIVE IN THE 2ND HALF. HE GOT HOT LATE FROM THE 3 POINT ARC. HE NEEDS TO HIT THE WEIGHT ROOM AND GROW AND HE WILL BE REAL TOUGH.
#33) BRADEN WIGGS  6’4″ FRESHMAN  HAD 11 POINTS AND SHOWED SOME TOGHNESS INSIDE. IT WAS HIS BEST GAME THAT I’VE SEEN. HE SHOULD ONLY GET BETTER AND BETTER.
#23) VAL ADDISON 5’10 SR. HAD A REAL ROUGH TIME ON DEFENSE WITH DECAROLIS WHICH IS A LOT FASTER THAN HE IS. HE DID HAVE 7 POINTS
ST. CHARLES WEST GOT OFF TO A FAST START AND STARTED THE GAME WITH A 8-0 LEAD. THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED UP 16-9 IN WEST FAVOR BUT #30 HASAAN DECAROLIS HAD 14 OF THE 16 POINTS. HE DOMINATED THE FIRST QUARTER WITH GOOD OUTSIDE SHOTS AND DRIVES. ST. CHARLES GOT BACK TO A ONE POINT DEFICIT AT HALF TIME 24-23. WEST DOMINATED THE BOARDS ALL GAME LONG. #31) TOMMIE WHITNEY HAD 19 REBOUNDS. THE WARRIORS STARTED THE SECOND HALF WITH A 6-0 RUN TO HAVE A 7 POINT LEAD AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. THEY FINISHED UP WITH 9 FOR 14 FROM THE LINE IN THE 4TH QUARTER. WEST IS JUST MORE HARD NOSED AND WANTS IT MORE AND HAS MORE TALENT THAN THE PIRATES.
#30) HASAAN DECAROLIS 5’10” SR HAD A GAME HIGH 33 POINTS AND 14 OF THEM IN THE FIRST QUARTER. HE WAS 7 FOR 8 FROM THE LINE IN THE SECOND HALF. HE HAS A GREAT FIRST STEP AND THE PIRATES HAD NO ANSWER FOR HIM TONIGHT. HE HAD AN AWESOME GAME.
#5) TYLER HASH 6’1″ SR. HIT DOUBLE FIGURES WITH 11 POINTS. HE IS HARD NOSED KID AND PLAYS GOOD DEFENSE AND IS GOOD ON THE BOARDS. HE IS FOUL TROUBLE A LOT BUT A GOOD PIECE OF THE PUZZLE FOR WEST.
#31) TOMMIE WHITNEY  6’6″ JR DOMINATED THE BOARDS LAST NIGHT WITH 19 REBOUNDS. HE IS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER INSIDE AND HAS SOME SCORING PUNCH AT TIMES. TOMMIE HAS A BASKETBALL IQ ALSO. IF HE GETS IN BETTER SHAPE HE WILL BE A FORCE IN THE GAC.
#12) DAVIS SODERBERG 6’2″ SR. DOESN’T SHOOT ENOUGH AND NEEDS TO WORK FOR HIS SHOTS MORE. HE WILL BE GOING TO GEORGE MASON FOR GOLF NEXT YEAR. BASKETBALL IQ OFF THE CHARTS. HE HAD 3 POINTS LAST NIGHT AND SOME ASSISTS . HE DID PLAY EXCELLENT DEFENSE ALSO.

THEY STARTED THE 2ND QUARTER OFF WITH A 11-2 AND HAD A 20 POINT LEAD AT HALF.  OLIVER STEPHEN HAD A 10 POINT 2ND QUARTER. THE 1ST SUB OF THE GAME FOR THEM CAME WITH :48 LEFT IN THE HALF AND IT WAS FOR :18.THE 6TH MAN PLAYED FOR 4:38 IN THE 3RD QUARTER. THIS IS THE ONLY NEGATIVE THING I CAN SAY ABOUT THEM IS THAT ONLY FIVE GUYS REALLY PLAY. THEY CALLED THE DOGS OFF IN THE 4TH QUARTER WITH 3:54 LEFT AND A 31 POINT LEAD.. THEY ARE WELL COACHED AND TAKE GOOD SHOTS . THEY SHOT 76% FROM THE FIELD, 9 FOR 10 FROM THE 3 POINT ARC, AND 7 FOR 10 FROM THE LINE. THEY WERE REALLY IMPRESSIVE AND IN MY OPINION THE 2ND BEST LARGE SCHOOL AND 3RD BEST TEAM IN THE AREA.

#13) MARK SMITH 6’4″ JR. HE HAD 13 POINTS A TYPICAL POINT GUARD THAT HAS SOME QUICKNESS AND PLAYS SOME DEFENSE. HE HAD 16 POINTS , 10 ASSISTS AND 6  REBOUNDS. HE QUIETLY DOES THE POINT AND GETS THE JOB DONE.
#24) CHRYS COLLEY 6’2″ SR HAD A DOUBLE FIGURE POINT GAME WITH 10 POINTS INCLUDING TWO THREE POINTERS. HE IS PART OF A SOLID STARTING FIVE. HE IS QUICK AND AN ATHLETE.
