Final from Brooksville.

Four Polar Bears in double figures: Austin Crawford with 26, Jacob Hamilton with 12, Ryan May with 11, and Scott Fite with 10.

 

Blake Maze leads the Wildcats with 15.

Hamilton adds 8 rebounds and 4 assists.

 

Crawford also had 8 boards. Ryan May led Bracken with 12 boards.

I'll add my thoughts now that I actually can hold a signal. I was sitting right beside RP (thanks for buying the popcorn, quite generous of an 8 year old)

 

Crawford is as good as advertised. Gets to the rim well.

Fite is a raw talent...strong kid and will cause problems for many teams underneath.

Jacob Hamilton does not play like he's a freshman. Once he gets some more confidence...look out.

No Nate Haight & I thought Bracken played pretty well. Crawford was really good & as LCD said, he gets to the rim. That means a lot of free throws & he hit 13-16 tonight. Austin has great instincts & can beat you from outside or off the dribble. Did a nice job on the boards as well.

 

Fellow freshman Jacob Hamilton may have been the story of the night. In his first varsity game, Hamilton goes for 12 points, 8 boards, & 4 assists. Played really well & very un-freshman like.

 

Also liked the work of Fite & May in the paint. They are both undersized, but really get after it on the glass.

Not sure Haight will be back for this weekend's game at St. Patrick. He has a wrist injury that is keeping him out.
