Upward Basketball 2018 - Week #6

Silas - Game #6 - 8:30
Maybe Silas was flying for his introduction (above).
No peeking.
Silas was shooting some far shots (near the blue line), which I didn't think was necessary (especially when he could have gotten closer).  Then, Stacee said they worked on shooting at this location at their practice during the week.
I only got to watch the game until half time.  Silas ended up with 8 baskets.

Phoebe - Game #8 - 9:30
Illness had our team of 7 down to a team of 4 this week.
We started off well the first period and we were up 15-10 at halftime.
Phoebe made 1 of her 2 free throws.
I think we played our most complete game of the season.  We passed well and set screens, which we haven't really done all season.  However, we missed many easy shots and the other team played their best game of the year.  We lost 29 to 30.  It was a frustrating loss.  Phoebe played well and had 9 points.

Sarah - Game #8 - 2:30
We had a 4 hour break between Sarah and Phoebe's games so we went home.  I was able to do some painting and listen to a KSU victory.
We had all of our girls except 1.  She has missed the last 2 weekends due to illness.
We have been stressing rebounding for a few weeks.  Looks like we still need to work on blocking out.
Sarah was dribbling with her head up.  This allowed her to find some open teammates in the lane for some easy baskets.  Good job Sarah.
Sarah played against some of her friends from school, Hannah and Savannah.  When Sarah wasn't handling the ball, she was doing a good job of setting screens.
We worked on our in bounds play this week at practice.  The team did ok at running it.
We were up 12 to 7 at half and weren't playing very well.
Sarah played hard the entire game.  She was supposed to sit out the last period, but she had to fill in  for a girl on our team that was not feeling well the last period.
We had few point lead going into the last period.  We scored a few baskets and won 26 to 21.  Sarah had 14 points.
