St. X was down most of game by double-digits with Ballard hot shooting, but St. X came to life in the 4th quarter to get their first lead and close out the game.

Fun, fast paced game. Ballard’s PG was money the first 3 quarters and then cooled down in the 4th. The Tigers kept it close it early but every time they had a chance to take the lead it felt like they would turn it over and Ballard would extend the lead. 4th quarter was fun and the Tigers were able to put consecutive stops together and then convert those stops into points. 
 

I didn’t know what to expect out of Ballard based of their record but they’re better than their record would indicate. They’re not high level Ballard but they’re definitely good enough to put a run together and win the region…pretty much like every 7th region team.
