BASKETBALL REPORT
On the 22nd of October, the 1sts from Trinity Grammar Preparatory School competed in a game of Basketball against 1sts from King’s School. Kings and Trinity had faced each other before in Term 1 and came back to challenge each other for one last time. In the previous game, Kings had defeated Trinity so Trinity was hungry for the win. The referee signaled for the game to start, and the players ran to their coaches for a round down of the game plan. Tip off went to King’s but the first points were awarded to Trinity. The game was very spontaneous and thorough as each of the teams could score many times in a row. Both colliding teams were able to hit shots from close range and wouldn’t give up points easily. Trinity’s defensive strategy started to be put in play as they were making sure the ball kept going out of the paint. The Kings team had a lot of good ball movement and were sure to get a basket on their next play after timeout. The intensity of the game and the score at halftime meant it was anyone’s game. The start of the second half went in Trinity’s favor as they had the upper hand of 10 points. With 4 minutes remaining, Trinity was sure they had collected a win. Kings kept their head high and managed to chop down the lead and soon snagged 2 points taking them ahead of the game. The final minutes of the game were slow and long, and the competition level was colossal. Both teams’ defense was like a metal war and any bucket that had been scored was earnt with hard work and terrific teamwork. The last thirty seconds of the game struck like lightning. The game pace changed to feet walking to feet sprinting. The Kings were down 1 point and needed a bucket desperately. Trinity had the ball but had unfortunately lost it. The Kings had then scored the easy layup causing the game to end with their win. The final score was 35 Kings and 34 Trinity.
Congratulations King’s School.
