Final

[No I in TEAM]

Wolverines came out extremely flat but turned up the defensive pressure in the second half to overcome a solid Saint Henry team.

St. Henry might have had one of the worst games I've seen all year. Western Hills went to a 2-3 Zone from the start and rarely came out. St. Henry went 4-21 from 3pters. One of those was a first quarter heave at the buzzer by Lenhof.

 

The Crusaders just couldn't find the bucket and turned the ball over way too much. Things are going to have get better if the Cru is going to beat Conner and go to the regionals.

Kris Toles was impressive again. This kid will really help a school at the next level. Alot of potential in this kid.

Should be a good one.

If Western Hills comes out aggressive, stays within their game plan and doesn't get caught up in all the pushing and shoving Woodford will do, the chances are very good, in my opinion, that they will win.

I hope so.

Combess and Kendell's Defense gave St Henry alot problems. Great job guys.

[NKYBOY1487]

Defense wasn't the problem for St. Henry. Shooting was. I thought Western Hills Defense was horrible. Weak, very weak zone the whole game. St. Henry usually shoots around 35-45 % from 3pt land. they were 1-15 the 1st three quarters. Just a bad shooting night.

When a true shooter doesn't hit, there is usually a reason. Western Hills was in a matchup 2-3 with Combess, #5 on top keeping the shooters a little out of their comfort zone all night. The "terrible defense" by the top men on this zone, Kendell #13 and Combess collected 9 steals in the second half alone resulting in layups. This equated to a "W" for Western Hills and was the difference.

 

St. Henry is a fine team and I would like to compliment them on their behavior and the polite way they behaved. Our coaching staff was very complimentary of the kids. Good luck to them in the post season!
