coming kept lead overall point second stretch
They kept coming back. In one 20 second stretch I think it went from a very comfortable 16 point lead to nine, but overall Peabody couldn't keep up the pace.
control half helped second settled
In the first half, (Watson) started to get out of his game, which is distributing the ball. But he settled down and in the second half he really helped us control the game.
certainly controlled desire energy gas help lack left legs ourselves played straight ten three
We played three straight nights, so we probably didn't have any gas left in our tank. That could be part of it, but we didn't have the legs tonight. Charlestown controlled the boards, and we certainly didn't help ourselves with the turnovers, either. We probably had ten in each half. There was a just a lack of energy and a lack of desire on our part.
grabbing jersey occasion rebounds seen shot time
We shot probably 30 percent. They were tipping in rebounds of their misses, and every time there was a rebound, there was a Charlestown jersey grabbing it. They're athletic, but I've seen us on occasion be just as athletic.
break fast lead poise press second three
We actually used three different presses in the second half. Sometimes the press can backfire and lead to a lot of fast break baskets for the other team, but we managed to keep our poise and control.
