Hopkins High School
MYAS STATE TOURNAMENT
19u QUARTERFINALS
NORTHERN LIGHTS 51, NETMASTERS 42
First off I got to this game late. For some reason I thought the game started at 6:40 when it really started at 6:30. I normally don't cover the 19s since most are already spoken for and the ball tends to be not as sharp as the 17s, 16s and so on. They don't practice as much. It is more to keep in shape and to stay in touch with friends. However in this game there were some players younger than the 08 brand--mostly on the Northern Lights.
As it was I got to the game with Netmasters (a team of players from southern Minnesota) leading 19-16. The Northern Lights started to shine after I arrived. They finished the first half with a 7/9 offensive performance on a 14-7 run led by 8 points by Adrianna Ivanovic. It was 30-26 NL at the half.
In the second half Netmasters clawed their way back into the game with a 9-1 run to take a 39-38 lead. Leading the charge for the Netmasters was Abby Kennealy. She scored the first six points in the second half for Netmasters. NL dimmed somewhat at the start of the second half. They had a six possession drought when Netmasters were making their move, and a 1/10 offensive sequence. They snapped out of it with three straight scores after Netmasters took the lead. Ivanovic had two baskets sandwiched around two free throws by Kaitlyn Zimmerman. Netmasters had one more taste of the lead at 41-40. After that NL had an 11-1 run to finish the game. Netmasters had a seven possession drought and finished the game with a 1/11 sequence, the only solitary point coming at the line.
