Boone lead 34-21 at half but failed to meet the intensity of the aggressive Princeton squad and seemed to go dead-legged and lost on a Princeton close-in goal with 3 seconds left. Sydney Moss led Boone with 21 points and 11 rebounds.

This is the Boone I saw earlier in the year...

In the first half of today's game Boone handled the Princeton pressure nearly flawlessly, passed the ball with precision, moved very well on offense, and got easy shots?

 

In the second half they did none of that and looked tired.

 

Pretty typical of HS girls basketball, particularly early in the season...................inconsistent. I've seen all but two of Boone's games and I see a team getting better and better, and I think today's second half letdown will be the big exception to the rule as this season goes on. When they are consistent they are hard to handle.

Sydney is having quite a year so far. She is a nice young lady and I, for one ,look forward to watching her over the next few years.

Sounds like a nightmarish 2nd half. Moss is putting up some nice numbers, I might have to make it a point to see her play a time or two before she graduates.
