St. X 62-54. Final.

St. X Josh Lindsay was player of the game.

 

Happy with the fight WC put up. Could’ve easily rolled over when down 14-16 points. They continued to battle and made a great showing against a phenomenal team. 
 

Another tough game against Grayson Co. coming up. Like seeing them tested early by top teams. 

 

X was the better team and won the game like most expected. But I have to say I was impressed with the way Warren Central started the game and continued to fight. Their defense gave the Tigers a good bit of trouble in this one. X, however, had more horses and better playmakers all-around. 

St. X's Bryce Johnson had a rough night shooting. 1-7 on field goals and 0-5 from three.

I drove out and could not find a parking spot so went back home. sounds like I missed a good one.

I found a spot on the East side of the school which is a longer walk from the parking lots in front which wasn't a fun walk in moderate rain.

Defense is definitely what is going to carry Warren Central a lot in games where they might be punching above their weight.  Their win over Germantown (MS) owed to that entirely.  

I felt that the end of the first quarter was a harbinger.  Central appeared to be holding for the last shot, but shot a bit too early.  X knocked down a three to cut it to two after one, but that seemed to get them into a rhythm.  They came out blazing in the second, and decisively won the quarter.  Really was all they needed for the win. But I was very happy with Central's fight.  This could have easily gone on to be a 25 point victory or so once X got going.  Central kept up the pressure, and realistically this game was a 12-15 point decision that got ever so slightly better looking at the end.
