OMAHA LAKERS VS NORTH TARTAN-CROSBY

In the platinum division it is the Omaha Lakers Going up against the North Tartan-Crosby team. Both teams come out playing really aggressively to start this game out.
North Tartan’s Janae Burich is playing well to start the game out. She is listed as 6’4. She is just banging people around in the low block. She is a big strong woman down there.

North Tartan is trying to get the ball up the court as quickly as they can here. They are just getting the ball out of the basket and then they are gone.

Mercedees Morgan for the Omaha Lakers is playing well here to get this game under way. She has made some good drop step pivots here to beat her defender. She has very good court awareness. She knows where her other teammates are on the court and she also knows where the defenders are as well.

The Omaha Lakers have a 23-17 lead with 5:22 left to go in the first half.
Both teams are still playing hard here in this first half. Both teams are playing aggressively as this first half comes to an end.

At half time the score is the Omaha Lakers 25 and North Tartan-Crosby 27.
Both of these teams are coming out playing really aggressive here in the second half. They both seemed like that have a really motivating half time speech by their coaches.

The Omaha Lakers are picking up full court just to be seen on defense. They are not really playing very aggressively when they pick up full court. They really stick the pressure to North Tartan-Crosby when they cross the half court line.

Both teams are trading baskets here mid way through the second half. It is truly any ones game here. It is going to be interesting to see if anyone can make a run here late in the second half.

North Tartan’s Sara Hendricks is playing well here in this game. She has made some nice passes and she has made some good defensive stops here in this game. North Tartan is still looking to push the ball up the court. That is kind of the thing that I have noticed here in this tournament with the North Tartan teams that I have seen. They all look to get the ball out of the basket on the defensive end and push the thing up the court.

North Tartan has played well here in this game and they have come away with the victory in this game today. The Omaha Lakers did play a good game to watch today but they weren’t able to come up with the shots that they were shooting down the stretch. They did make a run at it late in the fourth quarter but it was a too little too late.

The final of this game was North Tartan 49 and Crosby 34.
