MINNESOTA COACHES ALL STAR GAME
at St. Thomas
3A 71, 1A 53
The 3A all stars stopped 1A 71-53 in the first all star match up at St. Thomas.
Future Gopher Brianna Mastey started the scoring for 3A from a pass from rival Casey Mann of
Rogers. The bigger class never trailed. 1A had a pretty slow beginning with a 1/11 start with five turnovers to begin the game. 1A did start flowing offensively a bit later as they scored four straight times to cut the margin to 14-11. 3A pushed out to 20-13 after a lay up by Kassie Robinson, but 1A battled back with a 12-6 run. 1A cut the margin to 26-25 after a three by Megan Cleveland. That was to be 1A's last basket of the half. Aaryn Booker on the next possession scored on a reverse lay up for 3A. 1A tried the 3ball the next three times down the court. As it was 1A was dry for the last seven chances of the second half. 3A had a four point possession with a &1 chance for Booker. She missed the rebound, but 3A retained the ball and Mann scored on a drive. Mastey finished the half with a lay up to make it 36-25.
There was not too much drama in the second half. A 13-6 run at the start of the half put the game firmly in the bigger schools hands. 3A's biggest lead came at 59-36.
Turnovers were to be a theme for 1A throughout the weekend. The bigger faster, quicker players exposed the ball handling skills of the smallest class. Turnovers lead to transition baskets and 3A had 15 more points off turnovers. 3A also dominated the paint with a 22 point advantage inside. Most of that can be traced to Brianna Mastey with
16 points. She was the only player to crack double digits for either team.
Ashley Walterman of GHEC had a bus load of fans at the game. However she suffered a concussion on Friday night in practice and was limited to only two minutes of action. Her fans chanted for her appearance later in the game, but as a precaution she remained on the sidelines.
Also both games used the shot clock. Each team had 30 second violations, mainly because they were unaware of the time.
