Tigers basketball wins two in a row

As the season winds down for the varsity Tigers it is a case of “too little, too late”. They got too far behind to have time to catch up. DS has played much better of late but they find themselves trailing fourth place by three games and only two left. You can do the math. They are 11-7 on the season and 7-7 in district. Left are games with Hays Johnson and NB Canyon and will be completed by the next edition.

Lady Tigers have an easy win

The Lady Tigers basketball team was able to play with less pressure allowing them to have success. This was the case in the 73-21 win over Lehman. Although the Lady Lobos are experiencing a winless season, they were still providing opposition to work against. Coach Batson substituted freely and everyone was able to get quality time and practice. What was encouraging was the players worked the ball much better and were looking for the open player. The more a player practices the correct moves the better they get at it and can perform the same maneuver against better teams. Practice makes perfect. Still left to work on is quality shooting skills for higher percentage accuracy. That won't come without extra gym time doing it correctly.
