001def Def [Music] [Applause] sorry that might be working out [Applause] hello hello hello can you hear me hello hello can you hear me hear myself have you yeah I don't I can hear myself I wait do I have myself I don't know can you hear me I got you all right now we're good [Music] all right welcome everybody today's East on match up against poio purple purple Knights purple Knights little technical difficulties but we're we're finally back at it East meow winning 53 with five minutes left in the first quarter Okay so we've seen a good start for the Spartans here today as the knights throw that one away and the East lbto ball hopefully we can build on our win earlier this week at home Jeff undefeated at home so far Steve so we're

002going to try to keep that keep that rolling ball goes from mne to marino marino goes over to Goslin Goslin loses her balance and takes a step out of bounds uh hok will inbound from the far sideline their own end and East Low goes with man-to-man pressure well defended ball goes outside to 14 that's Miss rebound by Jill Stevens Outlet to Marino and Marino slows it down to wait for numbers pook moves into their own man-to-man defense off Kenna's foot coach Gary calls for the timeout thought he got the timeout but the jump ball was called first East Lomo will retain The Possession I think this is the first time all year Steve that we've actually had an a bigger team man for man right it might it might very well be it certainly doesn't

003happen often not very many times is uh Kenna or sabinaa match up when they're taller than the person they with yes correct we have a substitution Caitlyn beak out and Grace blaze in Spartans will pick up their pressure at midcourt looks like number five Perez goes from long distance no good rebounded Again by Jill Stevens we could use a good rebounding night out of Jill tonight that would spell good things for us yeah I bet if Jill puts up 15 rebounds tonight we win yep Spartans operate outside Jill goes from the top of the key there we go Banks it in Bank is open Steve fantastic that's something he somehow has been lacking a little bit this year I think Ken Marino and Jill are the ones that are drained in free so far this

004year fok looks for The Equalizer from Rivera but no good nice rebound by gosin little miscommunication there between Marino and Blaze the ball will go back to hoio to inbound and go the length of the floor with an eight to3 lead we kind of don't want to have those unforced turnovers like that's the second time we've turn the ball away tonight correct he coach Gary saying girls you have to keep your eyes open Rivera tries to get Baseline that looked good unfortunate foul that looked like a good block to me not much more Stevens could do on no on that no that looked pretty good Holio goes to the line Genesis Rivera Two Shots back iron for the first one usual I like to see our girls just keep running running them down you saw

005out of support today of all the fifth and sixth grade girls good to see quite a few yes it's good to see that ball goes into Blaze nice drive by blaz for two well done and a Holio timeout there you goch Furious I love not happy with the defense easta metal girls are pumped up on that good job by grace blaz It To The Hoop yep Marino found her on a good look and then Blaze went right to the basket 104 with 322 left in the first quarter as the Holio purple Knights look to regroup on that timeout you okay so hok will look to inbound after trying to regroup after again the the hok bench was a little bit heated about some poor defense on that last possession it's always good seeing the other

006team upset watch those timeouts are four right Perez operates from the point tries get the ball out of her man she has the ball in her hands a lot oh comes up short on that one tried to go looked like Perez to the shot but nothing doing and so far so good for the Spartans mne looks to bring it up against minimal pressure till the three-point line Reno with a ball fake whistled for the travel ho yoke ball well if they can get someone inbound it with just under three minutes remaining in the first [Music] quarter they move the ball around the perimeter goes outside good block by Emma 21 throws Emma to the ground I think that's a foul that should be yes little WWE style right there and on this one here I

007give the ball I give the ball to Emma and let her drive that certainly has been a an offensive formula for success for the Spartans thus far this season bet I bet you we can get uh Blaha pick up another another quick one quick foul Y and again as you mentioned on a team that doesn't have a ton of size to begin with it would certainly be good to get her in some foul trouble Blaze looks to operate gives the ball back to Marino on the perimeter Marino goes with the skip pass over the top under 10 on the shot clock Marino looks for a clean look did not draw the [Music] iron Perez comes the length of the floor takes it in Nice Shot yeah that looks to me to be hok's realz plans

008a b and c on offense goz she drove earlier on and threw the foul and got the end one and then she just ran in the lane Spartans operating the perimeter mcky looks goes to the post Jill Stevens goes back to Ken Marina there we go Ken a three well done there we go that's what we've been needing this year good ball movement hit that outside shot we can get these girls start hitting a couple of Threes force them to come out a little bit more open up the inside that's a shot clock yep shot clock problem there oh nice look by Saina to hit Jill and stride well done nice pass and nice nice take by Jill Stevens to go in that was terrific transition basketball right there Jill Stevens at the line for

009two one for one Kendall Reed checks in for Emma gosin Kendall Reed with six points the other day that was a good game for her good G real good game strong underneath the boards got a bunch of offensive rebounds nothing but the bottom of the net for Stevens on his second one 15-6 with just over a minute remaining in the first quarter here at East High School Perez looks to operate from the top of the key once again goes through her legs tries to get by Kenna help defense is there good little player y mne will operate the point from the top hands the ball off to Reed who goes outside to Marino looks to blae blaze takes Baseline back to Marino up top to mcky has an open look goes inside to Grace Blaze

010Blaze looks to reset tries to get the skip pass St she's got it Jill stays with it goes over the top take it ohz the basket wow something yeah Holio girls when yeah Head to Head e e e for second quarter action uh 1710 East L Meadow leading Holio just over seven minutes remaining uh in the in the first half Grace Blaze checks in for Ken Marino Maya noes in for Caitlyn beak Perez will operate from the point as she usually does ball is in her hands quite a bit swings back to her over to Guzman Guzman back to Perez Perez takes a step back three no no answer there Grace blazs on the rebound fought for and full y ball Rivera looks to inbound she goes to Perez Perez will take her time give

011instructions from the top of the key goes outside to colie col's fouled there by Maya NES hok will inbound under the basket they'll run what looks to be a modified box or X play here ball is stolen by by Jill Stevens push it up the court Jill all the way take her take her Jill make her play it [Music] yep nice work by Rivera and uh Perez Rivera and K so colie for three off the front iron Maya's pushed but maintains the rebound saw beginning to look a little uh confused nice tape by grace blaz F yep and that looks like a second on Blaha there I think if you can get her and Perez out coach coach has got a decision to make for hok at this point about whether or not you go

012with Blaha with two six minutes so it's a long time to pick up that third one in the first half we'll see what she does GRA blazs with the first Marino in for mne Reed in for Stevens Grace reies herself for the second shot and it's up and in Grace glaz four for four at the line tonight G picked up by noes tries to maintain her defensive perimeter there Rivera looks over to colie collie tries to go inside that's a nice play but no conversion Reed with the rebound noes pushes it up the court noes to gosin gosin looks there back to no Mareno gets a good look too far for her there Blaze operates with the ball up to the high post to Reed follow on Perez y I don't think noes realized how

013much space she had on that shot she looking for the quick swing to Marino coach giving her some instruction take a look at that shot she's one of the better somebody got to move shot clock resets on the foul em gos with a nice shoulder and fake very good and it goes to Reed picks up puts it in starting off right where she did the other day offensive board and puts it in no are such such key points they don't look super flashy but wow they are important they are very important hey you know you can let these girls dribble all you want out in out TI just contain them like soccer just contain them whoa whoa whoa be an elbow from collie there trying to get some space Emma Goslin grabs up rebound pushes

014it up could go the whole way and she does there you go wow she's fouled and not called tough to not get the call there once again we said it over and over again I don't think three girls are all going to get ball all played completely clean defense looks Gman hits the shot jio coach with a quick timeout 212 2114 4 minutes and 45 seconds remaining in the first half e okay coming out of the timeout uh seven-point Advantage for the Spartans 2114 four minutes and 45 seconds left in the second quarter one of the things I'd like to see the Spartans do going forward is definitely boxing out the ball's been bouncing around a little too much on our defensive side for rebounding we should be defin grabbing all those rebounds seems like

015Poo's got a couple Second Chances May operates from the point gets it to marino marino with a clean look catches the rim but just bounces long time out coach Gary calls the timeout before Jill Stevens is tied up that will be East Long Meadow's ball inbounding under the basket e okay both teams break the Huddle and come back it'll be East Long Meadow inbounding uh under their own offensive basket running our form of box yes looking for anything ball goes Goslin out to beak beak with a good bounce pass to mne mne finds Marina on the swing o just barely another Miss on that there you go that's quick ball that's good ball there we go well done yeah nice ball movement terrific shot nice open look shots nice very well done Rivera looks tries

016to straight up good defense by Stevens nicely rebound rebounded by gosin be gives ball to mne mne will slow things down and let eow get in their offensive set they'll play Four across in an up high look there ball goes to Stevens back to mne nicely swung to beak beak takes the ball to the basket back outside to Sabina looks to swing to Stevens at the top she'll leave it for marino marino ball fakes back to Stevens Stevens looks to take Baseline switched hands at the ends nicely done re sh on the shot clock because they hit the rim so they'll have another 35 if they need it mne ball fakes and goes to the basket Outlets to beak beak nothing there goes to mne back to be who gets a good look just short

017jio ball Julio's falling into a two3 zone so if we can turn around and start banging out a couple these trees make them have to come out and play us get a couple of those shots and you could open things up East medow currently enjoying a 10-point Advantage 24-4 3 minutes and 20 seconds left in the first half there you go that's a pick trapped at half court Rivera some Oh I thought she got out of it but nope isto does force the turnover kekney looks to bring the ball to midcourt poo continues to stay in that two3 zone goes to beak ah got a mismatch with Jill Stevens over there I'd be feeding it to Jill Jill's got a lot of front rib from mne rebounded by Rivera I would me I would guess

018she'll take this the whole way herself straight up Jill oh Jill just got a hand on that think we got to look to get the get the ball into the inside Joe's got a good five inches in height on the girl Rivera goes to the line for two she makes the first I would imine this substitution will be read for Stevens trying to protect her from getting another foul before halftime I like that with Reed out there she's an aggressive girl I give her the ball a few times let her body up the other girl Rivera second nothing but the bottom of the net 246 lto presses quickly finds Marino for shot that's a pushed inside she stays right another foul wow allowing some very physical play there without a whistle gets to the basket

019good beak rebounds drive by beak y gets it out to Marino swung to mne back to Marino good look back to beak beak is impeded there thank you there we go that's a foul yep his fouls going all around foul there on Guzman third foul for Holio Marino looks to inbound goes all the way back to beak back to Marino in the corner ball fake gets her a chance to penetrate shot does not get in Reed makes the save Hustle by Reed controlled by Holo that's a foul you don't need that's a Trey young foul right there slow down let the defender run into that's tough hustling to get back and the other girl slows down and uh Grace blaz in for Caitlyn be Kio inbounds just on the East low side of midcourt Rivera

020runs the show as she usually does de outside to 22 Rivera there that's looked like maybe a travel but she no such call don't dribble into the corner finder lot of contact inside collie looks to find Perez nope it'll come this way to Rivera Rivera tries to get to the backel to travel travel indeed you can't step all the way through like that Mayan's in for Sabino mne noes will run the point here waits to see if there's action reverses the ball to Blaze Blaze back to nolles nolles looks on a quick dribble back to osin hands off to Marino oh Marino looks for the interior pass nice nicely deflected put that up there we go Maya with it just off the front could play this down till about the 22nd mark That's go up

021with it there we go nice [Applause] take that's the third for Blaha before the half I'm not sure why coach decided to bring her in yep that was the foul in 21 so she's going to have to gonna have to sit or her she's not going to have a very long afternoon here off the board for one for Reed and just like that Blaha will go out with their third foul before halftime with her and Perez hasn't been much other scoring the knights violation on the free throw shooters so we'll have hok inbounding and going the length of the floor with 51 seconds remaining in the second quarter changing it up here as River brings it up and they spread Perez out to the wing they try to find her for an opening and it

022worked that time they got a good look they didn't have the pressure and they got Perez open for a three credit to the jolio coach for getting her off the point and drawing up a new plan of attack there see what easto does with the last last shot type has not been an area where we've excelled this season look at for Grace blaz you got her in the corner there was no one that rotated over [Music] Reed at the top of the key finds nolles about 10 seconds remaining noes looks by Reed Oh e will have the ball left with three seconds left have the ball with good Hustle by Reed down the offensive glass once [Music] again get it there you go give it to Jill there we go that's well done the jolio

023coach is well out onto the floor she had better be careful because that is far outside of the coach's box far outside of the coach's box that is that's a bad territory yikes I'm not quite sure what her gripe was there was a lot of contact on that play from the three any one of any one of her three players and Jill makes makes it count hits hits the free throw now well they're not going to the line all we want to do is not foul him with no yep and they're able to get Jill out so as to not pick up another foul yeah the only person I really be concerned about here is I would just try to deny five the ball they're doubling her up yeah that's a good Play Let it

024go anywhere else just off the front glass Nice Shot scary okay we go to halftime with East meow enjoying an eight-point lead 27-9 e e e all right we're good yeah okay all right watching the last 10 seconds or so of halftime wind down here after a successful duck toss at halftime Spartans will come out with an eight-point lead 27 to 19 over Holio Jeff what do you what do you think is the what do you think is the winning the winning combination here for the Spartans in the second half the knights are sitting in a two3 zone so they're they want us to shoot the ball so I think if we knock down a couple of Threes it's going to force them to maybe possibly go into a two3 zone or a 3-2 Zone

025but I think a big key is with our girls here if they're going to sit in that two3 zone get the ball to you know Jill Stevens when she's up on top I think if we can get the ball into her she can turn around and drive or kick it out a lot can happen plus you get they're coming out into a manto man so okay well ball goes right to Kenna for three that would have been a nice one to have the play was well drawn up Ken of just missed on the rim and Holio looks immediately to press to the outside surprised the blaha's out to start with three fouls I'm very I guess go for goph for broke who is that gozman from outside yeah oh Rivera sorry 22 right jesis Rivera

026it's a good look 2722 mney looks for some penetration other side gives the ball to emag goosin who gets inside and is foul that one on let's see is that Guzman 14 called it on called it on 14 on that gozman yep Blaha holding her breath on that one knowing that her next foul will be number four for 21 ball goes up top to the top of the key to Emma Goslin Emma gives the ball to Marino who looks to find a way to drive she's cut off there back to gosin Jill Stevens posts inside then puts a screen on for how's that not a foul wow a lot of contact that's a block or something yikes but at the same time I think we have to look Emma's got to like look up you

027have Jill with a mismatch you just feed it into Jill this is what they continued at the end of the first half taking Perez off the point letting Rivera on point and then letting Perez catch and shoot off of that it's good by Kenna oh and Marino there to pick it up right out her Oho takes the ball in ooh there we go traveling Oh that would not have been my guess on that call yikes Rivera looks to inbound against a 221 pressure uh press scenario from East L Meadow ver goes back outside goes back to the middle and Holo breaks the Press there goes outside to Blaha who goes back to collie colie looks to find a seam gets there but can't get it in the Spartans will come down leading 27-22 mney looks

028to operate from the top goes outside to beak beak back to mne keky goes inside to Stevens back outside to beak put that up there go [Music] golin whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa we don't want to get that fall from 95 ft away from the collie is that's another I watch the elbows on number four that is second time I've seen that tonight ball goes up top to Rivera Rivera goes oof throws it out of bounds tried to find Guzman and just a passer going one way pass going the other way or sorry recipient of the pass receiver going one way and pass going the other Spartans will bring it up against no real pressure from the purple Knights Saina gets to the basket looks out [Music] to be got that one

029stuck on her hip ho o ball Grace blazs in for Caitlyn beak they'll go back to what they had H will go back to what they had with Perez bringing the ball up here she looks to colie screen by Guzman colie goes outside to Rivera Rivera look to travel on her way the baset you're going to do it one way you got to call that the other it's the same exact play that a lot of steps Emma does and they don't call it feel like I want to yell call it both ways but yes coach Gary just said the same thing he just said you can said neither of the coaches he said neither of us neither of us can figure out what a foul is tonight so that speaks to a level of inconsistency

030in the calling Rivera for the first one and it's no good once we've been seeing it all year long Steve when a girl's driving in and the other girl's moving her feet you got either got to call blocking or and that's right especially when you get into two girls Rivera is good for the second eows lead cut to four 2723 the ball goes outside to Grace blade is in the corner o stripped as she goes to the basket Perez comes out with it hok scores here I wouldn't be surprised to see oh I was going to Sayo timeout but she misses Blaze clears gives the ball to mne mne sets calls out the play from coach Gary there goes outside to Marino who waits to see if she'll get Stevens is a cutter Mareno just

031lost it saved by Blaze back good job by grace y kind of gets it right back still plenty of time on the shot clock still over 10 [Applause] seconds now the girls have to look to go goes inside the grace Ken Mar with Caitlyn Clark shot yes gets it up and gets the rim so enough to at least avoid a shot clock violation Rivera looks to operate with the point at the top goes outside to colie colie pushes up a three doesn't get there rebounded by Blaha there good job by Canada to jump on that ball not playing with as much intensity as we did the first five minutes of the game y haven't we have yet to score this quarter uh 2719 at halftime and it's 2723 at this point so yeah third quarters

032normally aren't our off that's that's I would think about a timeout here that's your eight point your eight-point lead is now down to two at halftime but coach is going to let them play through it and see if they can figure it out on their own Grace goes to [Music] Marino mney looks to find something inside outside to Stevens no good BLS with rebound out of sees that one mayol Mayan checks in for Sabina mck good job by grace blaz to come over and knock the ball out of bounds gotta watch somebody with the long ball yep Joe Stevens picks up another foul that three for Jill yes Kendall Reed in for Joe [Music] Stevens Perez back on the ball goes one-on-one with Kenna tries to find a SE good help from Mayan off of

033Baja's hands outside and the ball goes out of bounds to East Long noes looks to bring it up well Blaha is frustrated yep could be a good time to go inside yep over and over again see that Reed give the ball to Reed let Reed go right out pick it up there you go good work by Reed nice up and in that's on R goes against Perez on one Perez on that one yep two shots for Kendall Reed makes the first that's what he got to keep doing just keep feeding it into our bigs let him pound them down yep Down Under the boards it's not the flashiest style of basketball but it's going to be very effective tonight I think get in there and Brute Force Reed makes both K Reed's gone to the

034line she's what three for four from the line tonight so I mean it's working with her so just keep feeding it ver looks nice ooh there we go illegal scen against Gman there good job by Maya noes to run right through that one y that's rough when you set a screen you are the one that gets knocked down and you get the foul and you get the foul so good work by Maya yes Reed hustles to get into her position in the offense as Maya definitely got that bulldozer from her mom not her dad oh good job by Grace Blaze more basket for Grace Blaze 3225 Spartans they've turned it on Laha on the far corner back to Perez Perez looks to penetrate can't goes out to Rivera Rivera back rims the three Ray bounded

036it traveling well that one there I'm not going to complain about looked like Emma go gave a little nudge from behind what to the travel yeah starting to even out the calls still owe us another four more but once again I think that gets Baja a little bit upset Emma Emma from the top good look nothing doing tie it up oh [Music] uh some token pressure from long meow here looks like some man-to-man defense here waja goes way up top wow long three hits the iron nothing doing East long metal ball 25 seconds remaining in the third quarter Spartans enjoying a 3225 lead mes brings it up easy comes to the right hand side finds Emma Goslin at the top and finds a dribble Drive penetration there we go nice drive by Emma well done

037Rivera goes outside back to her at the top straight up Baja's open for the look and converts nice shot by Baja 34-27 just under a minute remaining in the third quarter o nicely anticipated by colie she saw it the whole way well defended by nolles no basket there right there that's the same exact call that they've been calling on us pull up and shoot that c Kenna waits to see what she has 35 seconds noes at the top of the key short and it looks like oops Caitlyn beak goes for Mayes Perez looks to run the point 24 seconds remaining in the half she goes outside to Rivera Vero looks at a very deep three from there thinks better of it playing Five out right now trying on the perimeter of what do you call

038that on if you call that on Grace it's call on Caitlyn veek o I'm just not I not sure why you call a perimeter a perimeter hand checking foul but then you have a Collision under the basket there's no call at all well forcer [Music] sub oh we got free throws oh fifth foul three substitutions in for the Spartans voo mne and NES on Marino Blaze and Goselin off for the end of the half lot with one remaining bino inbounds to mne mne to [Applause] [Music] nolles let's run it running the last second play voo comes to put his screen on mne's person tries to get her loose oops B goes outside travel there's time left on the clock there was time left on that clock at least a half a second if not a

039second I would agree certainly enough time to get spot up shooter Emerson Vino the ball for a three that's what I'd be doing put her in the corner with that turn and shoot Catch and Release Catch and Release half a second okay they've got half a second oh or you just tried to bait them and draw the foul that's another good option I go to Caitlyn Reed or Kendall Reed try to free her up for the [Music] shot have it well much to do about nothing no as the third quarter ends the Spartans take a five-point lead 34-29 into the fourth quarter e e so we started that quarter with what 27 we ended up with seven points that quarter yeah and it was actually and it was really I think in I was we

040were for about three and a half minutes we were still at 27 so the third quarter is always are I feel it's always our worst quarter yes we have a tough time some sometimes turning it around there Marina looks to play tight face guarding well done good work by Kenna man that was so well done nice nice bounce pass right up beak right up [Music] beak be takes on three that should be ball then y very good well done let's run it and Marino look the inbound she goes back good look for Goslin O Beautiful play well done nice work Emma Goin for the three put that was a very very good successful inbounds play right there goes outside to Blaha who goes long ball goes back to her she does the ball fake dribble

041Drive collie loses the handle double there he goes outside to Rivera Rivera looks colie again with that push three and Jill Taps it job by hand on it controlled by gosin Goslin brings it up gives the ball to mcky mcky goes to marino marino back to mcky double screen for her chance there o nice interior pass well done good ball movement Kenna goes to Caitlyn beak beak doesn't like the look there brings it back reverse veres the ball Kenna with the skip pass to nice right up with it there we go well done there you go that's all right we'll take it that's number four on Baja yep five called it on Perez Perez I thought Joe got the ball took a step in certainly what it looked like the referees might know how many

042fouls Blaha has too go goes that's got to be a foul again there we go she just over and over I know you don't want to keep calling the fall but I mean eventually you get to teach the girls how to move their feet otherwise it will be a fall that's that's the fourth on Blaha there that's was 21 on the call there but of course in the fourth quarter now you know you roll the dice I don't know what you're saving her for so maybe you continue to go with her two shots for Emma good on the first [Applause] and Goslin good for both from the line you saw Meadow up by double digits now ball goes outside Blaha looks for three back Iron by go to grab but yep one by gosin slow

043things down a bit here no hurry mne goes to the right side dosel looks at what she has Caitlyn beak pushed over be gives it back to Marino Maro by Marino kind of goes to the line that's a good take by Marino number four Evangeline colie with the foul there [Music] Mareno just misses the first now the good news for us Jeff you hope it doesn't come down to this hopefully we maintain this big lead but if it should get tight the fact that holks already got three fouls means that the likelihood that we'll be shooting sooner rather than later in this quarter yeah and they're going to have to start being a little bit more aggressive on it on the press and everything to try to create turnovers which we should go and Pat

044our Mass live stats right Marino good on the second and she is going to be all over Perez for the remainder of the game and they're just going to start jacking up threes from Perez look at that and Rivera there you go gosin wisely lets it run poio coach calls the timeout with 5 minutes and 52 seconds remaining of the game the Spartans enjoy an 11-point lead 40 to 29 what going 40 to 29 with 552 left in the fourth quarter East Meadow looking to get their third win on the season come out of the timeout from the purple Knights look to see a little bit more pressure from the knights coming up yep both teams going with a pretty similar lineup to what we've seen for most of the game theek looks to operate

045against the man-to-man defense here Marina goes outside to Stevens Joe takes it in nice take rebound back up again Blaha gives it up to colie colie to Perez Perez tries to find something finds a seam gets the floater no good ball stays for Holio Kendall Reed in for Jill Stevens see if Reed can keep up her good work through the day colie goes outside to Blaha that's short collie with the rebound Reed good defense there goes to Rivera Rivera up and off the glass 40- 31 at the five minute Mark mcky looks to move from the top dist tributes to Marino who tries to penetrate nothing there Saina and Kenna go back and forth up top Emma cuts and looks for something inside difficult to find any penetration Emma finds a SE there yep and

046W there we go wow that's a terrific take by a terrific player well done em Gos in draws the count contact lays it in for two goes the line once again that's a huge play Maya noes in for Caitlyn beak gosin looks to complete the three-point play Oh violation yeah in a little bit early no worries after a quick after a quick rest um Stevens back in giving Goslin a break here probably getting her a minute or so before the final stretch Rivera looks to operate here screen by colie nice switch try to get Perez loose nothing [Music] doing fall called on Maya no team first in the fourth quarter collie looks to inbound she's got Blaha to the far side front rims that one collie with a nice rebound there takes it right back

047in O looked like good defense by Reed unless she got her with the body no no I don't agree with that she got one there she looked like she was straight up the entire time and typically the girls do you always hear them go straight up they always try to go over with their hands and that's the easy call but I do not agree with that one colie converts the first to cut the lead to 10 points 4232 misses the second rebound Reed good board by Reed and mne will be in no no hurry no hurry utilize that time on the shot clock Marino goes crosscourt to Stevens Stevens to mnei looks to continue on the perimeter out to nolles no rush no rush well done shot clock under 10 now you look to go

048to the basket Stevens draws the contact foul there Joe should be going to the line that's the fifth one that's two shots oh that's about as well as you can do it on that possession the shot clock was under five you maintain it the whole time and you end up drawing the foul to go to get two shots well done I'm not a fan of this two shots either no I like the one and one till you get to the four till you get to the 10 this shooting five right away is good job by it takes a little bit of yeah it takes a little bit you had to have players paying attention to know if it was one in one or two it you know yeah now it's just right somehow no just

049Kenna's marking Perez everywhere she goes yep Can't Get Loose Rea looks to get it to colie colie to Blaha we've seen this a lot where they try to get Blaha on the outside I think Emma might have gotten a hand on that yep she did so it'll stay stay with h yoke Grace blazs in for Maya nolles y Hoke looks to inbound it'll be colie she goes up top to Rivera Rivera tries to find a way to penetrate she can't that's a deep three from Blaha draws the iron but no good help her help her help her out yep time out a timeout by Coach Gary 3 minutes and 21 seconds remaining each meows up 12 4432 e okay folks hope everybody went to the kitchen got a snack used the bathroom we're in for

050the full we're in for the home stretch here for the last 3 minutes and 21 seconds Spartans enjoying a 4432 lead hopefully with some smart possession they'll be able to this one away we just have to keep Baja just keeps launching threes they're doing a good job marking her she that last one was way past Caitlyn Clark territory and like I said and that's the way I'll you know if we can keep the ball out of Perez's hands I'll let somebody else try to beat us well differ I think in the first the first half she was driving they've locked down all those yeah the penetration is not there so that's good spread it all out good screen on what four that was an off that was a foul good yeah no I was going

051to say that looked like a pretty good screen that's a that's a poio foul there yep well done so gosin one of our better free throw shooters goes to the line for two tham converts the [Applause] first Spartans up 13 just over three minutes to [Applause] go and Emma makes both we're going to be hard to beat if we make our free throws yeah especially they keep following Emma or Grace blaz right correct everybody they're sending to the line today he's been making them I would imagine that Perez is going to try to get to the basket K is just shutting her down that's up on it did look like it went off the top but three on the surprised Poo's not uh yeah you have you have to press here cuz there's there's not

052enough time to just stay back hey good for them right I mean we'll take it that's fine poio coach is calling that up out time out by Gary good timeout e must be nice we're back Spartans up 11 with just under two and a half minutes to go their ball under the hoop looking for the nail and the coffin on on these next few possessions 17 seconds remaining on the shot that's not what we wanted to do Noe good that actually really wasn't so bad because leads into and one yeah oh and and that's Baja's five oh oh my gosh I mean the girl's laughing at it because she knows how much she hacked her yikes a jump ball she knew what she she knew it she was heading towards the bench she knew they

053try to find colie Outside nope oh Perez hasn't go off her hand now we just don't want to have a fall just let them operate along the perimeter no problem colie again to push three that's off Holio there smartly lets the ball go out of bounds I think there's a little bit of soccer shielding right there I think she shielded that ball shielded that ball right out all right now this is when I let one of the girls release because they're Mark oh all right P back get it in yep very good oops and just hold it just hold it yep very good we need possession possession just under a minute 40 left here in the game he slow meow up by 11 keep it out keep it out good Sabina goes to the corner

054Jill Stevens for three you know yes welome I get taking the three but the time we have 15 seconds left hold it for another 10 seconds we don't need the uh man Emma is reliable and consistent from that line she got another 10 points cross at the line tonight it's got to be close if not 10 it's got to be [Applause] close see an announcer Jinx that's how it goes those are one of the things that we might not make a difference in this game but later on we've done that before the one thing we don't the West Springfield game we did it you don't we don't need to stop that clock no let him pass it around and try to take a long three that's it y I think you said it earlier on

055the last possession Jeff the Spartans have done a terrific job neutralizing Perez in the second half she was very very dangerous in the first half and she's been almost a non-factor in the second half Ken's been marking her everywhere she goes just man marking her not just no switches or anything like that doing a great job keeping it up so we've got a timeout with a minute 14 remaining uh this this point it's a 12-point Spartan lead I certainly am not interested in jinxing anything but I like the position that the Spartans are in right now with that kind of a the point advantage and the time remaining in the quarter I'm feeling feeling good and we inbound the ball when they start following us who are you gonna go past the wall to I

056think there are a couple of good options uh we see if they can find one of them I go with Emma I would say that's a I would say that's a good choice [Music] 1 2 finally polio comes in to press the ball get the ball to Emma Goslin and not even trying to [Music] [Applause] follow medal will retain possession with a minute and 8 seconds left up he's going to look for help since the Holio coach was consultation with the read their lips I didn't know what he's talking about I didn't see anything I think it's going to stay here what do you think I think it's oh so the official from the other side of the Court could see that one but the official that made the call pulls it back to call

057regardless Spartans up 12 with a minute to go in the game y so just play good strong and smart defense here and you should be in good shape o unlucky for holo that was the play they wanted Marino gets ball looks to fou there so Kenna will be shooting this is going to I really hope that they realize that I mean I understand fouling if you're within if you're within one or two possessions but with 12 yeah there's 12 point there's really not much I don't think that one there was an intentional foul I think she was trying to get the I believe what we may have had there was a time for a replacement I think that that was blaha's Fifth and I think that you get that's another timeout 30 the 30 seconds

058I think or whatever you get to replace replace the player I thought the fou was on Perez though [Music] yeah Kenna Marino at the line for two makes the [Applause] first wisely pulls the Spartans off the line no need for an inadvertent foul underneath there Spartans looking to improve their record to three and five I believe next home game will be against chick be comp here a home on Monday correct Perez at the top it's a lot of time to take there out of bounds ball and again I really don't know that there's a need to foul here if you're h y it's 41 seconds and it's a 14-point game I I think that's a little bit Out Of Reach but what do I know colie with the basket but that still makes it that's

059a it's a 12o game 32 seconds that's they're going to follow us we're going to go to the line that's fine we know that the lcat viewers ask for as much of the Jeff and Steve show as they can get so Holio is going to oblig and they're going to foul and just extend this time that we have together on the air you know what I'm fine with it we put up 50 points it's great we might get to yeah we get to 50 here kind of falls back to want to get the ball in the hands of the if you're not gonna get I 100% get the ball to Emma on that if they're not if they're not following her then get the ball over to the yeah to the guards and yeah get

060the ball over half court all right Spartans break the Huddle for what will hopefully be the last time this evening 32.2 seconds left at the same time I also like this because it's like it's a good time to work on plays CU they're looking steal it you have to work on these things sometimes there going be a closer game you don't want that to happen now go long Grace get the ball back to the [Music] guard foul goes against Rivera I'm gonna say Kenna was trying to drop ra the follow the go to the line I she's trying to pad the mass line I certainly would I would that's what I'd be doing oops goes around and out for Jill on that one I think that's a big difference in the second half of this

061game I think Marino shutting down Perez oh huge huge huge huge under 20 seconds no fouls here can let them have free reain pretty much shot goes up and over nope nope nope I'd let It Go Don't challenge ball eight and a half seconds left and I'm confident saying the Spartans will go to three and0 here at home continue to enjoy the home cooking here in East Long Meadow I like itz gets her first clean look of the half no no foul no [Music] foul think there ref is trying to hold off too long had to call the jump and Marino gets the ball into Goslin gosin holds and that'll wrap it up a 12-point victory for your Spartans 4937 Jeff as always it was a pleasure pleasure Steve have a good one everyone for
