Game #07 - December 10, 2009
The Gilbert Tigers lost a hard fought game in overtime Thursday
night to the Hamilton Huskies by a score of 58 - 56. The Tigers
again got down 10 - 0 in the beginning of the game and to chip away
to get within 8 points at the end of the first quarter and at the
half.
The Tigers came out after halftime
with some urgency and clawed within 5 points, but a flurry of
baskets at the end of the third quarter gave Hamilton a ten point
lead. The Tigers really dug in the fourth quarter defensively and
the coaching staff saw that the Tigers believed they could win the
game. The Tigers were able to hold the Huskies to four points on no
field goals in the final stanza and had a 1 point lead with about 40
seconds left, but a costly turnover game the Huskies the ball back
where they were fouled and hit 1 out of 2 free throws to tie the
game.
The Tigers again had the ball, tied,
with chance to win the game, but again another turnover gave the
Huskies the chance to go home victorious, but the Tigers defense
came up with a great stop to put the game into overtime. In overtime
the Tigers were able to take a 53 - 50 lead, but the same old story,
turnovers, didn't allow Gilbert to take home the win. The Tigers
were led in scoring by Shawn King's 24 points and Austin James' 16
points. Austin is really starting to come around and helping the
Tigers with scoring. The coaching staff is extremely excited to see
the growth in this year's team and their efforts versus a talented
and athletic Hamilton team.
