The Yellow team played three quarters of solid defense and offense before they got complacent and allowed SLAP back into the game. They started off the first quarter with strong offensive play from John Lewis, Thomas Morgan, and Michael Hagerty. They moved the ball well around the perimeter and were able to hold a side in two meter. The defense was anchored by Jack Buelter, Joe Kabance, and Jake Chisholm. They played a crash defense most of the game, which allowed very few shots from two meter. The Yellow team ended the first quarter up 2-1.
In the second and third quarters the yellow team continued to play a strong defense. They continued to crash hard from the point and flats limiting the SLAP team to a few shots on goal. The offense continued to be productive with some off the ball picks and drives, but the majority of goals came from the counterattack. The boys played with intensity and had many opportunities to score on counters, but some poor decision making and lack of vision in the pool limited them a couple of goals.
In the fourth quarter the yellow team made some mental errors, crashing off the wing and not getting back early to defense, which allowed SLAP to rally to a one goal deficit. The yellow team also played sloppy while up 6 on 5 passing to guys under pressure, but they were still able to come out on top. The players of the game were Joe Kabance and Jack Buelter for defensive effort. The team has some work to do on 6 on 5, but played a solid offense and defense in three out of the four quarters.
