Big Win

February 15, 2010

Got another big win yesterday over a difficult Veroli team. It was a home game and Veroli was just one win behind us in the standings. Having won the game by nine points, we hold the tiebreaker over them if we equal their win total at the end of the year.

We now remain one game behind the leader with 10 games left to play. We have been playing good basketball over the past few months, so I am hopeful it can continue.

I ended the game with 21 points and played pretty well overall. Next Sunday we play in Venice. Though their team is towards the bottom of the standings, they are difficult to beat and starting to play much better. I am hopeful we can stay focused and get another win.

Great Road Win

This update is overdue, but we got a good win over the first place team last weekend. At their place nonetheless. We are now one game behind them, with a big game this weekend against the team right behind us. Of course, all the games are big when you are fighting for first place.

Until later…

Missed Opportunity

February 1, 2010

Last night, we were up 15 points going into the fourth quarter, only to be outscored 32-12 in the final period. Needless to say, it was a difficult loss to swallow, particularly considering the fact that if we had won, we would have moved one game behind the first place team (who we play next week).

But that is how it goes sometimes in basketball, as much as I hate to admit it! I ended the game with 18 points, but it was far from my best game. I missed a few good opportunities down the stretch that could have moved the game in a different direction.

This coming Saturday we play Sassari, the first place team who we are still two games behind, at their place. I don’t think they have lost there yet. I am hoping for a good performance.
