Battle of the Hardwood
Woodbury High School
17u semifinals
NC HEAT 48, MN STARS BOROWICZ 41
For the third time this season NC Heat beat MN Stars Borowicz. This was a defensive struggle that broke NCH's way in the second half with a 14-3 run. The atmosphere in this game was intense with many of the top 08s plus the egos involved. This game meant something.
Like the Minnesota State AAU championship NCH took an early lead at 4-0. This time MSB got on the board much faster stopping the scoreless streak at six. MSB pulled in front at 14-13 on a transition lay up by Cassie Rochel. Another transition lay up by Brittany Chambers put MSB up 16-13, for their biggest margin. NCH finished the half with a 7-4 run to tie the contest at 20. Annie Berner scored on a reverse lay up to tie the game.
Another slow start by MSB put NCH up 24-20. MSB's drought was only f
our possessions however and they scraped and scrapped back into the contest with a lay up by Theairra Taylor to make the score 31-30. Then MSB's offense hit a road block with a 2/15 sequence---a 13.3 pp100. Eight of those possessions ended in turnovers. NCH made use of six points off second chancers as they stretched their lead out to 45-33. An 8-3 run by MSB, with two 3s by Taylor cut the margin down at the end to 48-41.
MSB had a few players missing. The biggest was Amber Dvorak at 6-7. they also had Tyisha Smith and Danielle Mangen missing (both sub 5-5). Sarah Hintz of Woodbury was on the bench in street clothes. She will be returning to the court in about three weeks.
Earlier in the day I caught the end of the NC Heat vs Minne Southern Magic quarterfinals. When I came in NCH led 50-40. Then Tayler Hill took over. NCH won the game 66-48. NCH had eight straight scoring possessions with Hill scoring eight straight points and 10 total in the 16-8 run.
