Elizabethtown 51 Anderson County 42
#8
http://www.thenewsenterprise.com/content...ounty-1224

According to the link:
- Elizabethtown outrebounded (had more rebounds than) Anderson, 37-26. Boley and Cleaver combined for 25 (TWENTY-FIVE) by themselves ... one less than Anderson's entire team.

- Elizabethtown shot 44.68 percent from the field (21 of 47), while Anderson shot just 31.37 percent (16 of 51). Anderson took four more shots, but made five fewer.

- Both teams attempted less than 10 free throws each. Elizabethtown was 6-9, Anderson was 1-2. Even if Anderson went 9-for-9 (matching Elizabethtown's attempts), it still loses. Plus, E'town is a zone team which routinely shoots far more free throws than its opponents
-- For one, zone teams are LESS likely to draw fouls than man-to-man checking and pressing teams.
-- For a second, Elizabethtown has depth, which means it's hard to keep its main guns in foul trouble.
-- For a third, Boley and Cleaver go to the rim. Cann and a lot of AC players don't. They stay outside, as witnessed by their 25-PLUS 3-point attempts. AC also hoisted up a ton of 3s even when it had LaRue down double digits. Teams that jack up a bunch of perimeter shots are LESS likely to shoot as many free throws as teams which work it inside, like Boley and Cleaver do for E'town.
- For a fourth, E'town is not a "reach-in" team. It gets steals, but most steals for E'town come from putting players in bad spots and anticipating the next pass. Not from trying to poke the ball away and hope the ref misses the reach-in.
