PC played really well. They broke the press almost every time. Free Throws is what killed them though. They didnt hit them the whole game and in the end missed 3 front end bonuses. Colby Slone had a great game, he took over.
Hatfield had something like 30 pts. and hit free throws in the end to beat the Hawks.
Conrats Wildcats & Great effort from the Hawks!

Valley didn't press all that much. They started out in a full court man to man, which I don't consider to be a press. They dropped into half court man later, playing a little run-and-jump. They played some 2-2-1, but not very much. They also went to a 1-2-2 for a few possessions. They mostly played half court man and half court 1-2-2.

It is hard for Valley to score against a zone. I think teams are beginning to see this. They took entirely too many threes. They shot 11 in the first quarter, making 2.

I think teams away from here don't know much about Valley, and how to play them, so that is what contributes partly to their success against those teams. The teams around the region have them scouted very well.
