The basketball girls faced hall one today in the quarter finals. The winner of this game will advance to the semi finals. Unfortunately for hall seven, the girls lost to hall one after an intensive match played this evening.
The match started neck to neck as both halls defended very well. As such, the score was 3-4 with hall one leading by only a point. As both teams were unable to score, a first time out was called to restrategize. However, due to anxiety, hall seven players started making wrong passes which put hall one players at an advantage. As such, hall one players managed to pull away and ended with a score of 3-8 in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, hall one players managed to further the lead with a score of 5-14. However, despite the lead in the first half, hall seven players did not give up and pressed on in the game. Many good passes were made and our hall players defended very well. Despite it all, lady luck didn't seem to be on our side as many attempted shots failed to get into the basket. However with Taijie assisting the girls team, the players managed to fight back strongly and ended up with a score of 11-18 in the third quarter.
Even at the very last quarter when hall seven was behind by 9 points, the girls team never gave up. They were determined to fight back. 5 minutes before the end of the game, hall seven girls managed to catch up with a score of 15-18. Their attacks and defences were brilliant and accurate and this started to put pressure on hall one players. However, a time out was soon called by hall one and with their own restrategizing, they managed to extend the lead further and ended the game with a score of 15-21.
Despite losing in the quarter finals, the determination and perseverance of hall seven basketball girls is commendable. It was definitely a good game played!
