MINNESOTA COACHES ALL STAR
3rd PLACE GAME
at St. Thomas
2A 98, 3A 60
The 2A team put their stamp on the championship game with the biggest victory margin, and highest point total in a championship game, since the start of the class system. 2A used the same team based play in putting their stamp on the 2008 series. Balance was a key word for the 2As. Seven players had 8 or more for the champs, while 3A only had 3. The 3 point barrage that sunk the 4As wasn't quite as potent, but the 2As shot .515 for the game compared to the .293 for 3A. The old saying is most definitely true--"If you shoot good, you look good."
Part of the 2A magic was they looked for each other, and didn't mind giving the ball up, hence the good shots. It is important to get the ball to the right people in the right spots and before the defense knows what is happening.
Another factor in the 2A win was the line and 2A made more than 3A attempted (24-14). The foul differential was not that huge (12-15). 2A was just more aggressive in attacking the basket and 3A picked their fouls up that way.
Kassie Robinson gave 3A the only lead they would have all day with a three on the first possession for the bigger schools. 2A heated up on their third possession with four straight scores. Two of them were on second chancers. Alex Montgomery had the hot hand for the 2As with 11 first half points. Brianna Mastey topped her with 12 for the 3As. Montgomery's team was up 44-34 at half.
2A did not have a lot of down time in the second half. They did have scoring runs of four, five and eight as 2A was scoring at will. The 2As had a 16-6 run during that time. The next dramatic question was whether the 2As could also get to the Century. The champs reached the 90 mark with 3:18 to go. With 20 seconds left it looked like they may get the ball back. They did but only for 3 seconds, not enough time to launch an attack.
Last year 2A was fourth in the four team event.
