Game 9

October 13th, 2014              

    Samantha and her teammates won a close battle in their last game against the girls from Brandon Middle School, and they were hoping for another victory in the rematch. Although the Brandon girls are much taller than the Holly girls, they managed to hold their own in today's game. The rebounding numbers surely favored Brandon, but the jump ball numbers were in favor of Holly, as were the number of steals. Sam played a really good game today as well, despite not grabbing as many rebounds as she is used to getting. She wound up scoring 7 points, making 3 steals, causing 5 jump balls, and she also took a charge. In addition to her ball handling and offensive duties, she was also tasked with guarding Brandon's tallest player who was also their primary ball handler. All in all it was a good game for Sam, and a good game for her entire team, as they managed to secure a 36-25 victory even after being tied at 14-14 at halftime.
