Tyler's team suffered their first setback of the season
today with a 22-15 loss. It was a very physical game, but we still managed to
get a bunch of good looks at the basket. Unfortunately, we couldn't get too many
of the shots to fall. Tyler did score a basket today, and he took a few free
throws as well. It seemed like every time that Tyler brought the ball up the
court that a player on the other team (number 6) would run him over in an
attempt to steal the ball. Tyler took a few good licks, but managed to stay in
the game.
Overall, our passing wasn't where it needs to be yet. We
missed plenty of opportunities for open layups because we either over-dribbled
the basketball or we made the pass too late. These are things that are easily
correctable, so hopefully next weekend will go better.
One reminder when looking at the pictures - Tyler's
number this season is 2, so keep an eye out for that if you can't figure out
which one he is when looking at them.
