Another Tournament

The team has been on quite the losing skid losing 7 out of their last 8.  I am not big into putting too much emphasis into wins...but I also know how frustrating it can be to continually lose and be overshadowed by taller players.

Or, as was the case Friday night...player.  One single player on the other team who scored 3/4 of their team's final points.  

The game was being reffed by the in-our-household infamous ref who called the travel on Zack which led to his being pulled from the game by me.  And...with 45 seconds left in the game...the instance repeated itself as Zack tried to split a double team, was fouled, and was called for travel...by the exact same ref!!! What are the chances?  He nearly lost it again but sat there on the court with his hands up in a "what-in-the-world-game-are-you-watching-ref" kind of gesture.  Even that it too much reaction for my taste - but an improvement over last time.  

They, of course, lost the game but made a heck of a comeback from being down by 13 to only losing by 5.

Zack had only 6 points.

One aspect of Zack's game I think he could really improve on is boxing out.  he should be facing the basket more but instead he faces the player.
