MOUNDS PARK TOURNAMENT
PROVIDENCE lions 61
ST. AGNES aggies 39
After four days with no out & abouts I started off with the holiday tournaments at Mounds Park with Providence beating St. Agnes 61-39 in the first semifinal. None of the teams in this tournament will not be challenging for conference titles. Most of the teams are AA. But as it is the only tournament in town today I was there.
St. Agnes scored on their first possession and then went into the deep freeze for the next 16 possessions. Providence responded with a 17-0 run. The best Providence offensive sequence came late in the half with four straight scores. Jenna Brady had six points in th
at 8-0 run. St. Agnes had another double digit dry spell with 10 possessions empty. It was 32-12 at half time.
Samantha Zopfi scored the first 7 points in the second half. Providence stretched their lead to 29 points in the middle of the second half. One half of St. Agnes' one two connection, Rayanne Klein, had 15 points in the second half. Providence led 56-30 with 6 minutes left, but only managed five more points the rest of the way. They used the deep bench at that point. One interesting side note---St. Agnes went to bonus at 58.6 seconds left in the game, indicating that both teams were either playing cleanly or the offenses were content taking outside shots, and didn't attack the basket.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
St. Agnes played 2/3 throughout the game. With a thin bench they couldn't afford too many fouls.
Providence played man but used the 1/1/3 or 2/3 zone most of the game. They did use full court pressure.

PROVIDENCE lions 60,
ST. PAUL COMO PARK cougars 50
The Providence Lions roared over the Como Park Cougars 60-50. Providence led at halftime 27-22. They built it up to 35-22, held on when CP cut the margin to 39-35, and then put distance between their guests from St. Paul. Long time Blake and Breck head coach Ray Finley is an assistant at Providence. This game also had a Gopher connection. Dana Joubert Hayes is in her second year as head coach at Como Park ('92) and Jamie Broback is an assistant at Providence ('07).
The game started out with the first three possessions going for scores, two which were long distance. Latita Martin had a long 2 for Como Park and Samantha Zopfi had a three. It was 7-4 and then Providence sent in the next shift at 15:49. That pattern went on all night without any change in the groupings. Providence didn't score on the next 8 possessions. CP had a 8-2 run to take a 12-9 lead. Breanna Burkhalter had four points for the Cougars in the run. Como's last lead came at 16-15 after a rebound basket by Martin. That also was a trademark of this game Como relied quite a bit on second chancers. They scored 10 points via that route in the first half. Providence had 4 second chancers. At half Providence led 27-22.Providence opened the second half with an 8-0 run to lead 35-22, their largest mar
gin of the day. CP went through a six possession drought to start. Add on the last three possessions of the first half and they were 0/9. Como had their own 9-0 run near the 12 minute mark to close to 37-33. Providence also had their own six possession drought at the same time. Providence broke free from the 39-35 mark with another run, this time 9-0. That put them back at a 13 point advantage at 48-35. Yaasmiyn Salahu-Din crashed the offensive boards hard in the second half and had six straight points, all from second chancers. Como added 16 more second chance points in the second half. But Como could never close the gap and Providence took the game from the bigger class Cougars. key: player, points, pp100, floor %
