Boys Basketball vs St. Josephs

Wednesdays game was very intense . Our boys came to the game ready to play hard and bring home another win. The game was fast paced and the crowd was ready to cheer to support their team until the end. At the end of the first quarter the score was West Ridge 17 vs St Joes 19. The boys were working hard but so was St. Joes and the score showed it. At the end of the second quarter the score was West Ridge 38 vs St Joes 32. Coming back to the court after a locker room chat you could see in the boys eyes that they were determined to bring home a win. Their defense picked up and they blocked, stole the ball and ran hard to try and make it to the basket before the other team could reach the other end of the court. After the 3rd quarter the score was West Ridge 52 vs St Joes 41. The boys finished the game out with the score of 68 to 51.

West Ridge hit 10 out of 13 of their free throws at this game
