6th grade playoff preview...Practices tomorrow

Where: St. Emydius (699 Jules Ave)
Time:Sunday, 5 p.m.

The 6th grade will enter tomorrow's game as underdogs, the No. 3 seed in their division, going up against the No. 2 seed in their division, Megan Furth.

The last time these two teams met, the 6th grade was on the losing end of a lopsided game. Both of their games at Mission Dolores this season were big losses, their only losses. They have both looked pretty much the same as the team was uninspired and tired. It is doubtful the team will repeat that same mistake.

The things that did them in last game were the turnovers. They need to take care of the ball and not throw the ball away. The 6th grade plays a pretty good half-court defense and create a lot of turnovers. What they do with the ball after they get it is the problem.

Sometimes they race down the court, heads down, and bury themselves in the corner. They will need to be able to fast break effectively and score quickly.

More important than anything else, is they need to be smart with the ball. Limit their turnovers. They will need to bring their best if they want to be playing for the championship. They have the talent, now it's just time to execute.
