Reading 60 Owen J. Roberts 39

The Red Knights improved to 10-0 with a workmanlike win tonight against the Wildcats of Owen J. Roberts. Here are my thoughts on the game:
  1. We really played flat for long periods of time tonight but I was very happy to see the defense play solid basketball. We didn't give up many layups and the numerous three pointers we allowed them to shoot were like an outlet pass for our fast break.
  2. Tonight pointed out once again how much better and more comfortable Jermaine Jackson is on offense when he gets the ball on the lower block. Also, when teams converge on defense it also opens open jumpers for our guards.
  3. Again tonight great balanced scoring. This I feel like is what sets us apart from other teams we don't rely on one or two players. We have about five or six guys who can go for 15-20 a night.
  4. It was good to see us get a win tonight convincingly when we clearly didn't have a ton of energy and weren't running our offense that well.
  5. Marcus Dawkins played about 10 minutes tonight and was OK but not as good as last night. I think it is easy to see though that is shot is the corner 3. He will continue to improve and really is an X factor for this team to get to that next level.
