Got here just in time to see the last few seconds of Central Catholic’s 58-51 win over International…

(It’s getting really hard for this ancient ol’ hoopsdude to make these early games on 2nd and 3rd days).

Now we have Arcata vs. Mills…. I doubt this one’ll be close…. Would have like this game to be at 9:30 instead.

Anyway….
 
Going back to that “old hoopsdude” stuff I mentioned…. Today is my 69th birthday…. What better birthday gift than a day of HS hoops!

This also reminds of when Mom gave me a birthday card, wayyyyy back there in the horse-and-buggy days…. The card said in HUGE letters on the front, “UP YOURS!”

When I opened the card, the explanation: “Today is your birthday! Take that number next to your age, and UP YOURS by one!”

But I digress…
 
Arcata puts this one away with a 14-0 run to start the 2nd half…. It’s now 50-29, 52 seconds left 3rd.
 
2:18 left 3rd, 44-28 Heritage. I’ve seen these guys a few times this year, and they’ve been good enough to lose by only single-digits to good teams.. But they are really putting a game together here.

Happy Birthday You Old Bastard !!

Here's wishing you great hoops
 
There’s something you don’t see too often anymore…. Heritage went to a full-on 4-corners offense. First time, burnt some clock but turned it over, 2nd time, it worked to perfection. 53-41, 36 seconds left.
 
Lincoln putting up a little bit of fight…. 36-21, tho…. Domenico in charge.

BTW, I see a couple guys in sweats on the Lincoln bench, maybe those are the transers and I was misinformed?
 
36-25 San Domenico at the half…. Lincoln clearly hasn’t given up.

So far as the transfers, I probably should have said nothing without full info, and maybe even then.
 
Lincoln definitely has San Domenico off-balance,,, but it’s still 45-33, and San Domenico’s Omar Willaims at the line for 3. Makes 32 of 3…. 47-33.
 
22-15 Archie Williams now, as they’ve hit 3’s in their last two possessions, and Urban just turned it over…. 1:37 left in the half.
 
Urban’s making a run…. A steal and runout, followed by a stop and foul, 2 shots…. 33-31 Archie Willaims, 5:54 left.
 
Urban uses up all theur take fouls, now Williams FT’s…. Makes one, Williams rebound, more FT’s coming…. Both good, 47-38.

Long Urban shot, no…. Willaims rebound…. Guess what? More FT’s coming…. 41 seconds. Both good, 49-38.

Urban nails a 3…. 49-41, time out…. 30.6 left, 49-41.
