big royal daddy

Not really, untill the 4th qtr. Both teams missed close in shots, turned the ball over, missed free throws and generally tried to see who could give it away first. Even with all the bad plays of the Royals, the only thing that kept Franklin Co. from losing was their rebounding. If they hadn't grabbed some of the offensive boards they did, Mason should have still won the game by 1, 2 or 3 points tops. Coach O'Hearn credited his defense in keeping the game as close as it was. All in all a good defensive matchup by both teams.

Really! Turning point in the game was when Mason Co. fouled Hicks and Hicks was called for a T for mouthing off. Hicks missed the front end FT, Middleton missed both technical FT's and then Mason Co. couldn't score on the possession. Also they missed 4 layup type shots within the last minute or so.

Mason Co. gave up 17 offensive rebounds.

I could think of a few other words than disgusting, but I won't violate the rules!
