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!!!
