Drew's basketball team played their fourth game of the
season today, squaring off against their game 1 opponent. The game started off
slowly for Drew and his team. Drew was visibly tired after playing in a hockey
game last night, and his teammates couldn't find the bottom of the basket for
most of the first half. Drew seemed to gain energy as the game wore on, and he
and his teammates closed the halftime deficit to 4 points. The second half was
dominated by the Nichols team, as they outscored the STPR team 16-2. Drew easily
had his best game of the season, bringing the ball up the court on multiple
occasions (the primary ball handler was in foul trouble), grabbing a bunch of
rebounds, and scoring a career high 12 points. This is the kind of game I know
he can have!
