WHITE BEAR LAKE bears 60,
MOUNDS VIEW mustangs 52
In a Suburban East match up WBL overcame a sluggish start to beat MV 60-52. Both teams combined for 9 traveling calls....in the first half. WBL built a 17 point second half lead before MV cut it to six with two minutes left.
If you look at the pp100 for both teams you will see that neither was exactly on fire. However MV started the contest with two straight scores to lead 4-0. WBL also scored early and MV led 6-4 after four combined possessions. After that it got mighty cold mighty fast, mighty long. MV scored twice in 14 possessions, 9 due to turnovers. WBL struggled on the offensive end too with a 2/13 possession. The half wasn't over with droughts. WBL suffered through a 7 spot, yet MV topped that with 12. MV's last lead came at 16-14. On WBL's next possession they tied it on Stacy Dally's drive. Three minutes later Tanya Dickey made two free throws for an 18-16 advantage. The game broke open on the last two possessions of the half as Julia Dysthe connected on two treys. That pushed the margin to 24-16 for the home team. The first half was an exercise in offensive futility. WBL's pp1oo was 63.2 while MV was an anemic 42.1. Too illustrate the sloppy nature of play, there were 9 traveling calls (6 MV, 3 WBL). I don't expect that many traveling calls by AAAA teams in late January.
Dysthe hit her first shot in the second half, once again a three. WBL continued to put space between themeselves and MV. Hanna Iaizzo carried the baton after Dysthe. Iaizzo had the next 6 points for WBL. She ended up with 16 second half points as she delivered in the paint. MV again fell into the drought hole with a 10 possession empty string. By that time WBL led 40-27. WBL suddenly found the key to unlock the basket starting at the 8:30 mark. The Bears were 6/7 during that stretch and enjoyed their largest lead at 50-33 with 6 minutes left. WBL led 55-42 with three minutes left when they made a wave subsititution. MV took advantage of the new line up with Megan Lauck made it interesting by scoring 7 straight points, the last a trey from the right wing to make it 55-49 with 2:15 left. The time out and return of the starters stopped MV's momentum as WBL outscored the Mustangs 5-3 the rest of the way. The sloppy nature of play showed up even late as WBL had three turnovers (yes one was a travel) in the last six possessions. MV looked for the 3 ball and that option was done.
