The Orange Serpents moved to 2-0 with a 32-20 win over the Green Team this afternoon.
We jumped out to an early lead that dwindled down to 2 points midway through the third quarter. However, once our big three - Xavier, Austin, and Liam - entered the game together with 4 minutes left in the third quarter, we quickly regained control of the game and cruised to an easy victory.
The unquestionable highlight of the game was when Xavier and Austin ran "screen low", a simple inbounds play we learned in practice this week, to perfection. Xavier scored an easy bucket off of Austin's screen and Liam's good pass. I think I'm going to teach the play to the whole team this week so that we can set up our other players with easy shots under the basket, particularly those that normally don't get to shoot.
