Coaches Comments:
Both the A and B boys teams played well this weekend in Cordova. The B Boys team went 1-1, avenging a previous loss to Cordova, while the A boys went 2-0.
The B boys won a close game Friday, making a free throw at the end of the game to break a tie. They ran out of gas on Saturday, after overcoming an 11 point deficit to eventually take the lead. They couldn’t hold on, however.
The A boys won both Friday and Saturday night by double digits. The boys played well, extending their record against Cordova to 4-0 this year.
Highlights:
For the B boys, Justin Barnes played well. Justin hit a free throw at the end of the game Friday to give Valdez the win. Justice Reed played his best game of the season on Saturday.
For the A boys, Josh Baczuk, Dennis Mott, Allen Watson, and Landen Case played really well. Dennis was a force inside, while Josh, Allen, and Landen all had really good offensive games.
As a whole, we played really good defense on Saturday, holding Cordova to 15 pts.
