St. Benedict vs Briarcrest D2AA Region Championship Report




This was the most physical game I have seen this season.

The headliner for the first quarter was Symone Daniels. She was a beast on the boards. She had 6 rebounds in the first 4:30 of the game helping St. Benedict out rebound Briarcrest 12-5 on the boards. End of first quarter score 13-6 St. Benedict.

Second quarter is when things got out of hand--Bad calls by the refs, players kicking players (oh that was the 1st quarter), bodies flying in the air, bodies hitting the floor, little boys jumping and falling in the stands. I should have kept a count of how many times someone fell, flipped, or was knocked on the floor. And free throws were terrible. Saint Benedict had 8 attempts and only made 1. However, Briacrest still could not capitalize. Briacrest could not buy a basket, missing layups, stick backs and easy shots on the block. End of second quarter 20-12 St. Benedict.

This is the best way I can describe the second half of the game.

TOs. TOs. TOs. FOULS. FOULS. FOULS. UGLY. UGLY. UGLY. LONG. LONG. LONG.

St. Benedict wins 52-40
