Two Out of Three Ain't Bad

After a morning win yesterday, the girls had a disappointing Saturday afternoon River Valley contest, dropping a 28-18 loss to North Reading.

Playing in the River Valley League presents challenges that these young players haven't experienced, and the coaches understand that understanding the game takes time, and we'll look for gradual improvement. Consistency is needed to:
  • Protect the ball
  • See the floor
  • Defend the pick and roll
Today, the girls won the third game of the weekend, in a Middlesex League contest. They played better, but Somerville is behind where the girls are right now. The players attacked the basket better and worked on proper shooting technique to the point that gains are obvious.

All of the players continue to work hard, and the team record stands at 5-2.
