A GLIMPSE OF WHAT THIS TEAM IS... OR COULD BE?

So Ribault is off and running getting back to its winning ways with their first 2 game winning streak of this season. Not only did they win the game but the victory over Bolles was a district win where the final outcome was Ribault 58 Bolles 47. This game was really a total team effort lead by senior power forward/center and the game MVP:Raynard Felton who scored 22 points tonight and was very aggressive in all facets of the game, but you really have to credit the guards for getting the ball inside and some very impressive interior passing by the bigs. This win was a result of hard nose defense and running the offense by swinging the ball and having patience. This game started off as a pretty close game but eventually Ribault started running away after Bolles basically got tired from the speed of the game and was being harrassed on the defensive end. Furthermore, the key stat of the night is the Trojans were 8-of-9 from the field in the 3rd quarter which is just a product of being efficient and taking high percentage shots. During the game the Trojans penetrated the lane quite often and either had a good finish or just a smooth dish to setup an easy basket. So not only did the efficient offense propel us to a win but also knowing what to do whether its making threes or making layups this was a near perfect game besides some turnovers and bonehead plays.These 2 wins can be the start of something special but it is up to the players to continue to work and play hard. So in the midst of this teams peaking success i will be there every step of the way I am your senior correspondent Randall Moss. My next report will be live from Tallahassee,Florida... I am signing off until next time GO TROJANS!!!

TROJANS EMPOWERED BY A SONIC BOOM

So this is what a win feels like. Been missing this for about a month now thanks to a late game Sonic boom by point guard Keyon Anthony. The Ribault Trojans beat the FAMU baby rattlers 71-69 when was the last time Ribault scored 71 points in a game... Exactly this season has been trying but the team is really starting to click. Furthermore, by slacking on defense Ribault made the game harder than it had to be at the end of the first half the score was 32-19. As all teams do you try to coast to the finish line at one point in the 3rd quarter the Trojans had a 15 point lead but it eventually dwindled down after some key players got into foul trouble and we got lazy on defense. This game was different than any of the others Ribault played together, patient,and as a team. Good things happen when you swing the ball consistently on offense and when you attack on defense. Which we did a fairly good job with in the first half but truthfully this team has alot of work to do and if it will continue to get better the guard play has to step up evn more on offense and especially on defense. You have probably heard this before but truthfully the Trojans go as far as their guard play will lead them. Turnovers are a bit too many and they are silly passes types of lobs and other sloppy passes that are uncalled for you cant be in a rush everything in the game of basketball needs to be done precisely and with meaning. If this team can limit the turnovers and play together these bunch of players will be hard to stop. Their was very good improvements by alot of players one in particular is Keeshaun King who to me had his best overall game knowing when to shoot and take it to the hole but the biggest jump to me was on defense which is mostly effort and just competing on a possession by possession basis . When you think about the scoring it was evenly distributed because of the moving of the ball and just the patience that was exhibited on offense. In essence, when you reflect on the games hero Point Guard Keyon Anthony played a pretty good game besides the foul trouble he s a very high iq player to me he knows when to move the ball, when to shoot, and when to take the ball to the hole. His defense and hustle i compare to only Aaron craft of The Ohio State he is always hustling the fastest and hardest working player on the court. Breakout game?... only time will tell. So as long as this team continues to grow together and play the best they can every night this game will just be the stepping stone for something great. Get ready because HERE WE COME!!! The next victim...i mean opponent on the schedule is the Bolles BULLDOGS start with this game one day at a time. Remember we are a family now lets team together and SHOCK THE WOOORLD!!!
