Tonight we came out with the pressure that we were all looking for to come out with a 17-2 lead after the first quarter. Rylan Smith and Karson Chamberlin combined for 12 of those first quarter points. Tonight we knew that if we applied good pressure that we would give them issues. Rylan Smith led the charge tonight from the tip. 

Tonight we had over ten steals, with Rylan leading the way with 4. I was happy with the pressure we put on them because I thought we kept them in front of us and didn't allow much at all down the court. Keeping them in front of us led to a lot of contested shots, in which we only allowed 3 points at the half. All of our guys did a nice job in that area tonight. 

In the second quarter we outscored them 21-1. Markus Lambert and Kamdyn Moon combined for 14 of those points. Tonight we had a lot of different guys scoring, which was nice to see. Some of the guys needed that confidence from tonight, to keep them going and have good head space for the second half of the season. 

In the second half, we let down a little because we weren't applying the pressure. That happens sometimes during games that are a little lopsided, but that was a focus coming out of the half. After that we started scoring often, and I was able to get a bunch of guys off the bench in the game. 

Tomorrow night, we will be playing against the Eisenhower Knights in the Championship. This team is a solid squad, with a lot of confidence coming in with wings against Cambridge Springs and Fort LeBoeuf.
