Game 1
 

Home Up


 

January 12th, 2014              

    The first game of the season for the Michigan Avengers took place on a Sunday afternoon, and while the game didn't go exactly as planned it was a good opportunity for the girls to see what they were going to be up against. This one turned out to be an extremely low scoring affair, dominated by defense on both ends of the court. The Avengers could only manage 10 points over the 40 minutes of game time, while allowing the Mystics to score 16. The girls improved and began to gel together as the game wore on, so it wasn't all a lost cause. Samantha played ok in her time on the court. She did a decent job on defense, as she usually does, but didn't do anything outstanding on offense to make a major impact on the game... though she wasn't the only one with that issue in this game.
