I would have stayed, but I had to pick up my son at the Village Players.

Thanks Bjim....uhhhh blowout?

Highlands held about a 10-15 point lead throughout the game and pulled away near the end.

This came was never close after the opening tip. Everyone played in the game and most of them scored. Simpson and McGraw were very impressive. Also thought that Luke Stein made a pretty good showing. Definitely think that the style of play will help this team immensely.

I'm guessing Newport came out flat.

Newport was simply overmatched and has too many players with the "all about me" attitude. It showed very clearly they aren't team oriented and their defense was horrendous. Darnell looked pretty good for Newport when he got the ball and he put on a defensive show with atleast 6 clean blocks. As for Highlands the only two that I thought stood out were McGraw and Simpson both played great games. Hopefully Coach Russell can get this team together immediately.

On a side note I thought the Highlands players played with alot of class but I can't say the same for their student section.

Someone can start a new thread with the final score of the game in the title.
