[Van Hagar]

Broughton actually got hurt on the opening tip, couldn't really jump like he normally could afterwards. Hopefully its not a break, because he did play the full 32 minutes after he got hurt. Couldn't have been more disappointed in the overall effort from North, just didn't seem to have any juice for a big district rival game, other than point guard Adam Sizemore. The Jags desperately miss Brian Gray, the one guy that can take scoring pressure off Broughton, and defensively you have to account for. Clay played a smart, efficient game, did a great job early of getting the ball deep to Gabbard and Rogers, then Sexton, Sams and Curry (who is a very impressive freshman, great basketball IQ) controlled things in the second half after North took a brief lead. North at full health might, MIGHT, be able to sneak out a district title at Clay, but it sure won't be easy.
