Southwood/Manchester JH Splits

The Southwood and Manchester junior high boys basketball teams split a pair of games at Southwood Thursday.

Southwood won the 7th grade game 35-4.

We have not received individual stats from either team.

Manchester won the 8th grade game 44-22

Boys came out very sluggish to start the game. We practice man and zone offense do to not knowing which style of defense we would see. Southwood came out in the zone and we struggled for the first quarter playing even. We then started the 2nd quarter off by getting some steals which got the offense going, we still aren’t executing the offense like we need to. After halftime and showing the boys some other sets along explaining the ball needs to move we took off and opened up the lead which allowed us to get our subs in and play. Boys will be back in action Saturday at the Whitko tourney starting at 9 AM. Record is now 1-2 and 1-0 in the conference.

We will add Southwood whewn received
