B Game: Patrick Henry got off to a quick start in the opening game and never looked back. There was a figurative lid on the rim for the first half for the Mustangs, who were playing in their first game. The second half saw some bright spots for Memorial, but it wasn't quite enough in the end.
Coach Hoegh says: "It took awhile for us to show the tenacity that this team possesses, and that was enough for Patrick to get a large lead. I thought the whole team played much better in the second half. Natalia A did a great job on the boards, and Anna H showed some awesome hustle. There are a lot of things we need to improve on for our next game, but I'm confident that this team can do just that."
A Game: The Mustangs fell in their opener to Patrick Henry on Friday. Memorial saw the home team win the battle of turnovers and rebounds, both of which were large factors in the final score. Kylie M. was able to hit a couple of deep shots in the 4th quarter, but the late scores weren't enough to overcome the early lead built by the Panthers.
Coach Hoegh says: "Losing is tough. It can be easy to find blame or point fingers at other factors (like refs, teammates, preparation, etc.), but that's not what this team is going to do. Together, we're going to put in some hard work to fix the things we need to get better. I am looking forward to the next time we can get on the court."
