The match(copy righted from wee xuan's post)
RI 70-67 CHS
A few months ago, on the 11th of February, 4.30pm at Catholic High School, our C division lost to CHS by a extremely large margin of 20-30 points.
Was history about to repeat itself? Were we going to suffer the same fate? Before the match, our friends and classmates all believed that we would lose to Cat high, and some of us ourselves were unconfident, and a loss would be inevitable.
However, this time, it's not our loss.
We started off ferociously, not giving them any open shots with our disciplined and tight defense, and we lead 12-0 for the first quarter, before they got some lucky shots and a few free throws, though we ended first quarter with a 12 point lead of 22-10.
Maybe it's because of complacency of fatigue, the second and third quarter was a disaster, we let loose many open shots and they outscored us, 14-17 and 12-18 respectively in the second and third quarter. We let up on defense, we made many mispasses and instead of finishing it ourselves we always passed out that led to almost ten turnovers. Fourth quarter, as coach only played a few number of players, the players were getting lethargic and fortunately because of our early first quarter lead it went into overtime.
In overtime, we fought our hearts out. Even though we still made numerous mistakes, we still managed to outscore them by three points, and thus ending the game with the slim three point lead.
It was a good job, done by all the players, even those who didn't play. We played our hearts out, cheered our hearts out, and finally won. We won because we never gave up, and today's match pushed our boundaries. Had we made less mistakes, the scoreline would have been larger and more impressive. Good job to all the players playing out there today, especially yao zhong, who scored 11 points in the short time he played and not making any turnovers. Kudos to Daniel too for his game high 21 points, and Chng for his good post plays and milking.
We promised, we dreamed, we believe and fought, and now we have won. As I said before, past matches does not matter. We lost by about 33 points last time, and now everything is different. We promise to not get complacent and continue to do our best in every match, playing the matches as though it were our last. To the players, well done, have a rest and recover from any injuries you may have sustained, and let's get ready for St Andrews on Friday.
