THE FINALS : GAME 3
Last night saw the end of a disappointing series, but not a disappointing season. It’s hard to say we had a great season by the way it ended, but looking back over the course of the season we had a great season. If you count the regular season and the playoffs, our record is 29-12. In the game last night it was more of the same, we jumped out to a big lead, we held them to 2 points in the second quarter (that’s right 2 points) carrying a 28-17 lead at halftime. In the second half we controlled most of the game and just like game 1 we didn’t do the little things to help us win. I’ve always heard that if you want to win you have to defend, rebound and make free throws, you have to do all three. We lost the game 61-59 and we were 6-14 from the free throw line. Our coach has been preaching to us you have to do the little things, and last night in a 59-59 game with 17sec left we give up an uncontested layup with 3sec to go to lose the championship. They swept us, I don’t even know what to say more, I’m sick. Even though our team left the floor, I knew Charleroi was celebrating and cutting our nets down. I want to thank the fans for being supportive, team mates, coaching staff and the front office for a great season and looking forward to next year.
