After an abysmal 11 pt first half it looks like the Birds put together atleast a competetive 2nd half. The Dixie guards seemed to handle the Bird pressure from what I read in the Enquirer. McGraw scoring 1 free throw doesnt help.

 

Any others at the game? Details?

Dixie handled the press. All three guards (Mosier, Shields, and Richardson) played well Kyle Kendall did his share of ball-handling as well. T.J. got untracked offensively... good to see him settling down and gaining confidence.

 

Luke dominated the 4th quarter with 3 dunks, two off of very nifty feeds from his slashing mates. I think Luke also had 5 blocks for the night. His presence inside caused the Bluebirds to miss a lot of layups and putbacks. For example, they produced only 3 points in the first quarter.

 

I expected a much closer game. Dixie is definitely improving.

Wow, the margin of victory really surprises me in this game. Apparently Dixie is improving.

And Highlands is falling!

They have no offensive threat in the post.

Good to see Mace playing well, seems like he's good for a throwdown every game.
