Arlington at Craigmont on February 6, 2009 Report

Ariel Hearn, freshman guard, Arlington














This was a very nice matchup. What stood out was the team work displayed by both teams. There was much ball movement and both took advantage of having decent post players.

Arlington jumped out 6-0 behind several turnovers by Craigmont. Kim Wilson came off the bench and helped spark a run for Craigmont grabbing 3 rebounds and getting 2 points. Katya Lloyd helped Craigmont take over the lead with a 3 making the score 11-8. And Shatingra Jones hit a NBA range 3 at the buzzer to end the first quarter 16-11 Craigmont.

Craigmont struggled on offense to start the second quarter behind a stingy defense by Arlington. Arlington took advantage with Christyn Hopper hiting two 3 pointers and Camille Alberson grabbing 5 rebounds to lead the way taking the lead back. End of 2nd quarter 27-25 Arlington

During the 3rd quarter, freshman Ariel Hearn got hot scoring 8 points in the quarter including 2 threes helping to extend Arlington's lead 41-34.

However, during the 4th, Craigmont put on some defensive pressure causing turnovers and cut the lead down. But it just was not enough. Arlington wins 62-54
