45th Annual Cordova High Christmas tournament.
Semi final game
Inderkum 10-1 vs Oakland Tech 10-3
This game was extremely physical and played a blaring speed. Inderkum comes out swinging by starting the game in a full court trap flying all over the floor jumping out to a 8-0 lead. They controlled the entire first quarter 25-17 Inderkum.
Oakland Tech decided to pick up full court themselves and started to match the speed and intensity of the game being lead by guard #1 Ahmaree-Muhammad. By continuing to Attack the basket and getting to the free throw line, Tech was able to cut the lead to 4 with 6:00 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. However missed free throws hurt them from taking the lead.
Inderkum stayed with the game plan lead by Derrick Claxton and Teand-Indalecio ending the half with the lead 47-36
Inderkum started the 3rd quarter in another gear coming out with a monster dunk by Claxton and even more pressure which was the story for the rest of the game. The size of Inderkum and lack of rebounding for tech started to become an issue. It was multiple technical foul calls and bodies flying everywhere as Inderkum begin to pull away ending the 3rd up 20.
Tech fought the entire way and wouldn’t lay down. Ahmaree continued to attack ending the game with 23 points, helped by Mahlik Smith who chipped in 12. But Inderkum was just to much for them tonight. The size, speed, and conditioning of this team will be a problem for most squads. Teand ended the game with 19 points off the bench and Claxton with 25. I could watch these to play over and over. The effort, teamwork, and coaching on both sides was top notch. Great high school game.
