Tyler's basketball team played their second game of the
year against Swartz Creek, only this time it was an entirely different squad
than the team that they beat by 2 during their meeting in Holly. I'm not sure
Holly could field two squads as even as these. The Bronchos jumped out to an
early 4-0 lead, but they let SC go on a big run after that, and they wound up
trailing 21-14 at halftime. They stormed out of the gate at halftime however,
and led 24-23 after three quarters. By the time the final buzzer sounded, the
boys had managed to earn their fifth victory of the season with a 34-30 victory,
after some clutch free throws put the game away late.
Tyler was disappointed with his playing time today, as he
played the least amount of time that he had played all year (excluding the one
game when he missed practice after being sick the day before). He got about 4
minutes total today, all in the first half. He made some nice dribble drives to
the hoop, but he rushed his shots today and didn't score any points. He did play
good defense however, getting his hands in the passing lanes a couple of times.
