St. Davids Stats and Notes.

Hi Girls;

1- Final Score St. David's 29, Halifax Academy JV Girls 12. On the surface it doesn't look to good but it is the closest game they have had in the conference if I remember their scores correctly. It was 16 to 7 at the end of the 3rd. quarter.

2- Scoring leaders: Jamie Harris 4 points, Ashton Bradley 3 points, Jennifer Harvell 2 points, Lindy Clark 2 points, Kimberly May 1 point.

3- Their scoring leaders: #22 Taylor Dickens 5 points all in the 1st quarter. #30 Kaitlyn Dunston 14 points, 7 in the 4th., #25 Jamie Parks 6 points, 4 in the 4th. #4 and #15 2 points each. We got what we prepared for from our defense we made someone other than #22 beat us. We just did not score enough points to make it competitive in the 4th quarter. #30 Dunston got probably 6 of her points on steals from the trap at the top that resulted in lay ups. Next time we will try to be better prepared for her and their double teams.

4- Shooting percentage: we made 4 out of 26 shots for 15.4%. We have been shooting around 27% and should shoot at least 33% and most of the time 40% would be something we can do.
Individual FG@ leaders were Jamie with 2 out of 5 for 40% and Jennifer with 1 out of 3 for 33%.

5- Foul shooting percentage: a three way tie, Lindy made 2 out of 4 for 50%, Ashton made 1 out of 2 for 50% and Kimberly made 1 out of 2 for 50%.

6- Rebounding was a tie between Ashton and Kaela with 6 each. Jennifer had 3 and Jamie and Kaylee had 2 and Lindy had 1.

7- Ashton lead us in steals with 2 and Lindy had 1.

8- Turnovers: We had 12 turnovers. It seemed like more but when you are playing a slow paced game like we were in turnovers are magnified because each possession becomes more valuable.

9- Their coach said after the game that we played the best defense he had seen all year. That is something to be proud of. We play defense that way against Rocky Mount and Cary and I believe we can win both games. All we need to do is make a few more shots.

10- It is White Uniforms and dress nice for Tuesday vs. Rocky Mount. See you at the gym at 2:30pm. This is a game we can win. we played this same team to 1 points games twice last year and we are a better team now than we were then. We will double #25 Rebecca Brown who had 11 points against us the last game. 9 of those points were in the 4th. We will double #30 Meghan Griffin who had 10 points 6 of them from the foul line. We will keep a close eye on #13 S. Lossau who had 7 points mostly on fast break baskets off steals or run outs. They scored 11 points on the foul line. We scored best from the wings in this game.

11- I love a challenging match and this game has the makings of one. If we play Defense good and work the boards, keep them off the line and make some shots we can get a win against RMA Tuesday and Cary next week. Come ready to play hard like we played today.
