Last Second Finish

Scartchy's season came to end yesterday as they faced the previous tournament champions in the championship game. Scartchy's team played well and they where leading most of the game but found themselves down by a point with less then a minute to go. They had several chances to take the lead, but they couldn't hit their free throws. With less then ten seconds to play they had another chance at the line and finally hit the go ahead foul shot. The other team rushed the ball down the court and threw up a wild shot that missed everything. They got the offensive rebound and a pass later the winning shot went in from the free throw line extended as time ran out. The team was crushed, and Scratchy was disappointed as she is arguably the best defensive player but was not on the court on the last play.

The Shamrocks had a great season going 17 - 5 and played much better the second half of the season. They won their division, won the preseason tournament, and took second in the Christmas and post season tournaments.

So it's off to the AAU team for Scratchy. It should be a change for Scratchy where most of the players are about the same size instead of a foot taller.
