Game 1/Round 1

Game one of the student/staff basketball competition was won by the staff (as expected). Two point shots were counted as one point and three point shots were counted as two. The students took a 5-1 lead in the first half. The staff had way too many turnovers and couldn't make shots. The tide began to turn in the second half as the staff chipped away at the lead and eventually tied the game at 5-5. At that point, Will grabbed the rebound under the basket and kicked the ball out to Aneesh who drained a three point basket. From there on out, the staff remained in control and finished with a 12-9 victory, outscoring the students 11-4 in the 2nd half. The players on the staff team included Aneesh Sohoni (6 points), Will Hailer (3 points), Eric Short (1 point), Kristin Cronin (1 point), Heath Marso (1 point), and Jason Johnson. There will be more re-matches to come.

The 2nd annual "Bob Groven" tournament has begun. This is the first of two tournaments tha the students take part in.
