A Game: The Mustangs defeated the Lynx 53-47 to take the first game of the night. Fans of offensive basketball were not disappointed with what they witnessed at Memorial's gym as both teams hit shot after shot in a true basketball battle. Memorial had a slim lead after each quarter of play, and then took control of the game late in the 4th quarter. The opposing team hit six three pointers, many of them with a high degree of difficulty, but the Mustangs were strong enough to answer each time.
Coach Hoegh says: "This was a fun, physical game. They hit some really tough shots and so did we. Our posts took control on the offensive boards, and our guards really ran the show nicely at the end."
B Game: The visiting Lynx won the second game of the night, 26-22. The athleticism and will of both teams led to an intense contest. It was the second in three games that the B Team played in a game that went down to the wire.
Coach Hoegh says: "We showed some mental toughness to keep coming back like we did. We just couldn't quite get over the hump to complete the comeback. Basketball is a great game where any one play can make the difference. Everyone was trying their best to make that play, but it never came. If we all believe this can make us better, it will."
