SATURDAY TWO-FER BIG\n9 STYLE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I continued my tour of the Big 9 with a pair of Saturday games. Both <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

revolved around Rochester based teams. Both Rochester teams fell, one at home, the other on the road. One streak lives on, another streak was stopped. Free throws loomed large in both contests. What didn\u2019t loom large was the senior presence. Only six seniors were rostered on the four teams continuing a trend that Peter, Paul and Mary sang about in \u201cWhere have all the seniors gone?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have three teams left on the menu in the Big 9 now: Austin,\nFaribault and Northfield. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have finished charting sections 1AAAA and 8AAAA (Friday\nwith Moorhead v Stillwater). I now have only six teams left to dissect in AAAA.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ALBERT LEA 42, ROCHESTER\nCENTURY 31<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first meeting in Albert Lea went the Tigers way 64-46. It\nlooked like Century, who is now winless in 16 contests, would finally break the\nice. The Panthers led at half time 18-14, but the Panthers could not stay away\nfrom fouls. AL went to the line 32 times (most of the day) and had over half their\npoints (22) delivered without any defense being played. Taya Jeffrey had an &1\nopportunity for the Tigers which gave them their first lead in the second half\nat 23-21 with 9:48 left. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both AL and Century start three players in single digit\ngrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Century took more shots inside 35 to 17 but was only shot 25.7%\nthere. AL was not scintillating there but was 35.3%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

AL is now 3-13 with two of those wins over the Panthers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RED WING 65, ROCHESTER\nMAYO 59<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#5AAA Red Wing is known for the 3s. On Tuesday they buried\n18. When they beat Mayo earlier in the year 71-39 they delivered eight with\nLindsay Reps getting half. Today RW scored seven, with Reps only getting two. It\nshowed the Spartans that improvements have been made—-to the tune of 26\npoints. Still RW prevailed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mayo was buried early down 20-4 halfway through the first\nhalf. Mayo came back by getting the ball inside in the later part of the first\nhalf and drawing fouls. Five times they were able to squeeze on point off the\nfree throw line (meaning they left five on the table). Once they missed the\nfront end (for seven evaporated points). Still the resurgent Spartans were climbing\nout of the hole down 35-24 at the break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the second half Mayo scored on six straight possessions (with\nan inside emphasis—-Mayo made 17 for the game inside, RW made eight and the Wingers\u2019\nlead was down to single digits at 46-37. During the comeback the Mayo defense\nwas glued to Reps and Kyli Nelson. Both stood in the corners by midcourt. As a result,\nRW was playing three on three basically. Abi Deming was not chased to the\nperimeter as often, and she made the Spartans regret that choice by knocking\ndown several shots. Also, to the rescue for the Wingers was 8th<\/sup> grader\nSydnee Nelson, who, off the bench, had a team high 17 points with three from 3.\nNelson also played the first half of the preliminary game. Mayo cut the lead to\n61-56 with 1:50 remaining. The next minute involved no scoring. Deming broke\nthe spell with a pair of free throws with 51 seconds left. Mayo\u2019s Anna Miller,\nwho led all scorers with on the day with 24 points, hit a 3 with 12.7 seconds\nleft to make it 63-59. RW added a pair of free throws on their next possession.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mayo started the year 0-6. Loss snapped a nine game winning\nstreak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

RW is 14-2. Mayo is 9-6<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TRENCH PLAYER:<\/strong> Yes this usually goes to someone on the winning side and there are good options, but no one can argue with Mayo\u2019s Anna Miller <\/strong>with 24 points, a 114.3 and a 44 in the 31 Club (the best score of the day). She also spearheaded the comeback effort. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
