This time there was no need for any late game heroics, as the 7th grade won easily 42-29 Thursday night to improve to (2-1).
The game wasn't as close as the score would indicate as the boys had control of the game even before the tip.
Jonathan hit two technical free throws because the other team did not have an official scorebook, a new CYO rule this season.
After hitting the two free throws, Jonathan took the ball off the tip and scored a lay-up to quickly make it 4-0.
Barely two minutes into the game, it was 8-0 thanks to two Jason Lei lay-ups.
It was a good shooting night for Jonathan who has been a little rusty from the outside for his standards. He hit two 3 pointers and another outside shot and had a game high 18 points. He was also a perfect 6-for-6 from the free throw line.
Allen also had the biggest game he's had offensively and scored 5 points.
Their opponent played a decent game but was nowhere near the caliber of teams the 7th grade faced in games one and two. After the first few minutes, it was pretty much expected the boys would come out on top and they played that way.
They weren't as dialed in and really didn't give it their max effort for portions of the second half because they knew what the end result would be.
It's good they can win comfortable without giving it their all but it's also a little dangerous to fall into traps like that, because bad habits can develop and could become hard to break.
