The group faced their first major test of the season against Maroochydore on the weekend. Maroochydore were the State Classics winners two years ago so it was always going to be tough. It was a bit disappointing to see us come out so intimidated in the first quarter, and we quickly found ourselves down 17-3, and it wasn't pretty. A few stern words, a bit of soul searching, and some adherence to our game plan saw us dig deep and peg the lead back in the second quarter. Special mention to G2 who hussled and finished a few lay-ups off in an awesome second quarter, at half time we had a 1 point lead. A significant turn around.
We battled on in the second half with every one of the 9 players contributing, and this is most important. Reginald went down with an injury with two minutes to go, but all was not lost. We cranked up the "d", had two really great timeouts, stuck to our plan and got the win.
Lesson to be learned - YOU CAN BEAT ANYONE, ANYTIME - WE ALL HAVE ARMS AND LEGS AND A BRAIN - never give up. Player of the Week: Definitely Gabby Edwards this week!
