He's right! Yesterday (Saturday afternoon), our kids recovered from another slow start and battled a talented UL-M squad nose-to-nose for 38 minutes and 30 seconds. In the last 1:30, the Apps blew a 5 point lead and lost by 1 when senior J.Eaves missed a jumper from his favorite spot on the floor with the clock under 5 seconds and frosh sensation R.Shabazz clanked a heartbreaking, game-winning dunk off the rim at the buzzer. (A soft snowbird was all that was needed. Freshman mistake. Hopefully, a lesson was learned. It would be a miscarriage of justice, however, to saddle Shabazz with the loss. The guy scored 27 points.)
Once again, defense, or lack of same, was the bottom line. The Warhawks outscored the Apps 36 to 20 in the paint!
Final score...UL-M 91- ASU 90.
