IT WAS TNL TAKING ON THE GLORY IN THE 16U CHAMPIONSHIP GAME

In the 16U championship game it was TNL took on the Glory. Both of these teams were able to get the ball up the court. They got the ball out of the basket they were off to the races. In the first quarter both of these teams played both zone and man to man defense.

The Glory played zone defense and that forced TNL to swing the ball around the three point arch. TNL was not scared to shoot the ball.


In a half that was pretty sloppy by TNL with sloppy passes and miss shots they were down at the half by the score of 40-24.


As the third quarter got underway the Glory looked strong. They were able to make that extra pass and they were way more patient when they had the ball.


In the third quarter the TNL players kind of got fed up and got angry with some of the calls that they were getting. They kept their tempers in check and finished the game.


At the end of the third quarter the score was Glory 65 TNL 40.


The Minnesota Glory came to play. They were able to constantly knock down shots and they gained a big lead from the beginning. In a game that had a large scoring deference the Minnesota Glory came away with the 73-51 victory.
