ST. ANNE'S 43, OLG 20

The St. Bede's Tournament ended on an emphatic note with a decisive 43-20 loss to St. Anne's of Union City. The victors were the faster, more experienced team and simply had too many weapons for OLG at this point of the season. However, after a lackluster 1st half that saw OLG trail 24-10, the boys responded with an effective 3rd period where they outplayed their opponent and won the quarter 10-8. This gives hope that as the season progresses and OLG gains more experience, they will be able to compete with one of the Mission Valley powers. Hekili led all OLG scorers with 7 points before fouling out early in the 4th period. Despite the loss, OLG had a very successful tournament experience, placing 6th out of 16 teams, finishing with a 3-2 record, recording two buzzer-beater wins, and gaining valuable experience by playing the maximum five games. The future looks bright for the 2009-10 season!

SCORING TOTALS:

Hekili J - 7
Wayne R. - 4
Chris P. - 3
Connor G. - 2
Brandon J. - 2
Tyler L. - 2
