[0:01] All right, here we are at St. Marty
[0:04] Village High School, ready for the
[0:06] second game of our double header. This
[0:10] time it'll be the girls
[0:13] >> taking on Columbia Heights girls. We
[0:16] just saw the boys game. A very intense
[0:19] game there. We're hoping for another
[0:20] intense one this game as well. Little
[0:25] bit of a different story for the girls
[0:27] versus the boys at the start of this
[0:29] season where the boys are getting off to
[0:32] a rough start. The St. Anthony Village
[0:34] girls are actually off to a very good
[0:36] start um relative to to Columbia
[0:40] Heights. That is overall their record is
[0:42] 4 and3
[0:43] >> and their conference record is 1 and one
[0:46] but Columbia Heights has had a much
[0:48] slower start. Their overall record is 1
[0:50] and3 with a conference record of 0 and2.
[0:54] They lost both their conference games
[0:56] which of course this year.
[0:58] >> And so if you're St. Anthony, you like
[1:00] the looks of that on paper. And that's
[1:04] consistent with uh last year's results.
[1:06] St. Anthony girls ended the season
[1:09] middle of the pack at 16-1 overall, 9-7
[1:14] in the conference. So, winning records,
[1:16] but uh still a fair race behind
[1:21] some of the better teams in that
[1:22] conference like Da Sal and Visitation,
[1:24] but Columbia Heights was way down there
[1:26] last year, 8-19 overall, 1 and4 in that
[1:30] conference.
[1:32] And so
[1:34] that uh they're hoping they can improve
[1:37] from the results of last year with a win
[1:41] tonight
[1:43] and get an early conference win in the
[1:46] season. But St. Anthony might have
[1:48] something to say about that. So here we
[1:50] are with
[1:53] starting lineup out there. We are ready
[1:55] for the jump and we are off.
[2:07] Foul on the first play.
[2:15] >> Oh, Husky number five, Rebecca Nelson.
[2:19] >> So, Rebecca Nelson will go to the line
[2:22] for two. Chance for St. Anthony to put
[2:25] points on the board.
[2:27] And first one is in and out.
[2:41] >> And the second one is in and out. No
[2:43] burgers.
[2:47] Now it's chance.
[2:51] >> Columbia Heights cannot.
[3:07] Uh St. Anthony driving down now. St.
[3:11] Anthony will get the first point on the
[3:13] board.
[3:16] >> Greta Schuman
[3:18] with an and one opportunity.
[3:26] Apologies on the incorrect call earlier.
[3:28] Had to get my bearings straight with the
[3:30] uh the PA at this uh St. Anthony down at
[3:35] that end with the three-point play. It
[3:36] was Greta Schuman.
[3:39] So, good start for St. Anthony. Columbia
[3:42] Heights to respond. There's a foul on
[3:44] that end. It was Sophia Bratton who will
[3:47] go to the line to shoot two in a chance
[3:49] to respond.
[3:53] All in trustee number 13
[4:08] and Brandon will get the first points on
[4:11] the board for Columbia Heights.
[4:15] >> Another free throw attempt here.
[4:22] And it's good. So knocks down both of
[4:25] her free throws.
[4:31] >> St. Anthony. Good ball movement on the
[4:33] fullcourt press. Gets around it easily.
[4:37] The drive inside.
[4:40] There is contact but no call.
[4:43] And Columbia Heights will slow it down
[4:45] and set their offense.
[5:00] trying to drive inside. It gets stolen
[5:04] by Greta Schuman.
[5:08] Layup is no good. They give the
[5:10] offensive board and Schuman with a
[5:12] three. That one is off. Fighting for the
[5:15] rebound. He comes away with it. It's St.
[5:17] Anthony Schuman again deciding to drive
[5:20] inside this time and she'll draw the
[5:22] foul.
[5:24] So
[5:26] already you can see offensive boards
[5:29] being somewhat of an issue for Columbia
[5:32] Heights.
[5:33] >> St. Anthony is the taller team
[5:37] >> and so that's something that Columbia
[5:39] Heights is have to going to have to keep
[5:41] an eye on.
[5:44] But the first free throw is missed
[5:47] there.
[5:58] >> And the second free throw is missed as
[6:00] well. And another offensive board. The
[6:03] pass inside that's blocked. Good
[6:05] defense, but Columbia Heist can't get a
[6:08] rebound. Another missed shot. And
[6:10] another offensive board.
[6:14] There's a three-pointer on the way from
[6:17] Haley Shirroy and it is good.
[6:21] And very early on, Columbia Heights
[6:23] wants to talk it over. And they do have
[6:26] some stuff to talk over. Mainly the fact
[6:28] that they can't pull a board. And
[6:32] I mean, St. Anthony is the taller team,
[6:35] but there are things you can do. I mean,
[6:37] boxing boxing people out so that they
[6:40] can't even get a chance at it,
[6:43] obviously.
[6:47] But yeah, that's that's going to be a
[6:49] problem. I mean, St. Anthony, what
[6:52] should have been one shot and a miss and
[6:54] then coming back on the other end turned
[6:57] into a miss and a rebound and another
[7:01] miss, another rebound until they finally
[7:04] scored. So,
[7:09] Yeah, hopefully there was some
[7:11] discussion about that in the timeout,
[7:13] but Columbia Heights will have a chance
[7:15] to respond here going the other way. St.
[7:18] Anthony will fullcourt press as well.
[7:22] We'll see how Columbia Heights manages
[7:24] that
[7:27] pass ahead. They get through it. Pass
[7:30] inside is deflected out. So, good hands
[7:34] from the St. Anthony defense.
[7:46] >> Drive inside. Floater. No good.
[7:48] Offensive rebound there. Put back in.
[7:53] >> He's okay if I put my right here.
[7:59] >> Now St. Anthony with a chance to
[8:01] respond.
[8:04] gets it stolen and Columbia Heights come
[8:06] the other way. A rejection there on the
[8:09] layup. It was clean.
[8:17] Inside pass and the easy layup in the
[8:20] post is missed. So,
[8:24] couple of missed opportunities for St.
[8:25] Anthony there. Columbia Heights wants to
[8:27] slow the pace down.
[8:35] drive inside
[8:40] and a high arcing shot is no good. But
[8:43] an offensive rebound thrown back up. No.
[8:46] Thrown back up. Nope.
[8:49] So, a lot of misses and offensive boards
[8:52] and not a lot of baskets as
[8:56] St. Anthony converts down in the post.
[8:58] That's Schuman again.
[9:04] and a seal for St. Anthony. And on the
[9:07] other end, it's Haley Seruin. So
[9:11] those have been the two scores for St.
[9:13] Anthony so far. All right, we see
[9:15] another deflection on the Columbia
[9:17] Heights enders
[9:20] number
[9:23] 24
[9:36] and stepped out of bounds. It was tipped
[9:40] on the inbound. So, good defense from
[9:42] St. Anthony.
[9:45] And they'll go on the offensive here.
[9:53] >> Good pass inside and finish for Casey
[9:58] Lasinski. Her first basket of the night.
[10:02] 124 St. Anthony looking good early.
[10:06] There's drive inside. Another layup.
[10:08] This time it is so and Columbia Heights
[10:11] needs a timeout.
[10:14] So, hot start for the St. Anthony
[10:17] offense and defense. I mean, it's been
[10:20] the steals forcing turnovers that have
[10:23] led them to
[10:25] >> their offense, but
[10:28] um
[10:30] yeah, Columbia Heights hasn't had an
[10:32] answer. There's been offensive boards on
[10:34] both sides really, but particularly on
[10:37] St. Anthony. So Columbia Heights I think
[10:39] just needs to
[10:41] focus on ball control and obviously you
[10:45] got to finish the looks that are given
[10:46] to you. You know St. Anony's a bigger
[10:48] team than you, taller than you. Uh but
[10:51] that doesn't mean that you can't work
[10:52] around for the open shot. What it does
[10:54] mean is when you get that open shot,
[10:57] you've got to hit it. So these shots
[10:59] coming down in the post, these second
[11:01] chance buckets or second chance
[11:04] opportunities,
[11:06] uh you got to finish those. I mean, it's
[11:08] just
[11:11] just no way around that. So
[11:16] Columbia Heights now with a chance to
[11:18] respond. Dangerous pass almost picked
[11:21] off, but they'll recover. And a
[11:24] three-point attempt there is way off up
[11:26] off the top of the backboard. And now
[11:29] St. Anthony coming downhill. The drive
[11:32] inside
[11:33] the finish and one. Maya Allen.
[11:41] Great move for Maya Allen who now has a
[11:43] chance for a three-point play.
[11:59] and way off on the free throw, but
[12:05] she does get the two initial points. So,
[12:08] Columbia Heights needs to put something
[12:10] together here. They've been getting
[12:12] around the fullcourt press so far, but
[12:14] it hasn't led to offense. Another chance
[12:18] to drive inside and got the roll.
[12:29] >> Maya Jackson. And then immediately on
[12:32] the other end is Casey Linski.
[12:36] So an immediate response from the St.
[12:39] Anthony team.
[12:44] And now Linski with a chance for a
[12:46] three-point play.
[12:49] See if she can knock her free throw
[12:50] down.
[12:58] And she does. Put one more on the board.
[13:09] >> So a great start here for St. Anthony
[13:12] already. building a double digit lead
[13:21] >> and Columbia Heights hasn't had an
[13:23] answer on the offensive end certainly or
[13:27] defensive as we might see another
[13:30] turnover here. Yeah, on the jump ball
[13:33] it'll go St. Anony's way. So, the St.
[13:35] Anthony defense continues to force
[13:38] turnovers
[13:40] and then convert on their offensive
[13:42] opportunities. So, we'll see what they
[13:45] can do here.
[13:48] Good hands, but it comes right back to
[13:50] Schuman who puts it up and in. Red is
[13:53] Schum.
[14:07] The drive inside is no good. It was good
[14:11] look. Just couldn't knock it down. And
[14:13] now St. Anthony coming the other way.
[14:19] And Schuman too far, but Lasinski's got
[14:22] her covered.
[14:27] And
[14:29] very ugly start for Columbia Heights
[14:31] here. Here's a three-pointer. Well
[14:33] short.
[14:36] And now it's a twoon one on the other
[14:38] side. Wasinski will take it all the way.
[14:40] Gets bumped. No call, but it's followed
[14:43] up by Rebecca Nelson
[14:46] who gets her first points of the night.
[14:51] >> One-on-one. They'll try a three and she
[14:54] knocks it down.
[14:57] Sophia
[14:58] >> Sophia Bratton
[15:00] >> knocking down a three. Much needed three
[15:02] for Columbia Heights.
[15:08] >> Pass inside. Kick back out of Midi.
[15:11] That's no good. The offensive board is
[15:13] there from Lasinski.
[15:16] St. Anthony moving the ball around. Pass
[15:18] inside. It's Linski again. She's
[15:20] covered.
[15:22] Working it back out.
[15:25] drive inside is no good. It was a good
[15:28] look for Nelson. Just couldn't knock it
[15:30] down. And now coming the other way on
[15:33] the drive is just rejected.
[15:41] So good block. Shane Anthony has played
[15:44] good defense.
[15:46] Columbia Heights fast breaks haven't
[15:48] been able to turn into anything
[15:52] >> productive for him.
[15:59] So, let's see what Columbia Heights can
[16:01] come up with here on the baseline. They
[16:03] throw it off Nelson.
[16:17] >> Trying to get it inbounds.
[16:20] They do
[16:22] and it's poked away. So, another
[16:23] turnover for Columbia Heights. This
[16:26] time, Columbia Heights has numbers and
[16:29] Maya Allen will
[16:32] pull it out wisely.
[16:39] Substitution for number 25.
[16:56] Good steal there from Bratton. She's
[16:59] going to take it all the way. Does not
[17:01] get it. Another offensive board miss.
[17:04] Put back up. Finally knocked it down.
[17:11] >> Somaya Connor
[17:13] with the basket. Inside pass. It's
[17:17] Nelson
[17:19] on the response.
[17:22] 2711 1041 to go here in the half.
[17:27] St. Anthony has been in control of this
[17:29] game. Pass inside.
[17:32] No good.
[17:42] Midi is no good. Fight for the rebound.
[17:45] And it's going to be a foul against
[17:47] Nelson. So Columbia Heights will take
[17:50] over.
[17:51] >> Oh, the Huskies number five Nelson.
[17:55] Substitution for the Huskies number 55.
[18:28] working it inside. Back out. Drive
[18:31] inside.
[18:33] No good on the finish, but recovers it.
[18:37] And it'll be a foul. So, it's going to
[18:39] be Somaya Connor who goes to the line
[18:43] for two.
[18:47] >> Is number 25.
[18:54] >> First shot is good.
[19:05] >> That second shot is good as well.
[19:09] So, couple of good shots at the free
[19:11] throw free throw line for Connor.
[19:15] St. Anthony now
[19:19] and it's thrown away.
[19:23] So, Schuman
[19:27] threw that one away. Not a good
[19:29] possession for St. Anthony, but Columbia
[19:32] Heights has some ground to make up.
[19:41] Comes a drive inside. She falls. It's
[19:43] going to be a jump ball.
[19:46] And which way will it go? It'll stay
[19:48] with Columbia Heights. But good hands by
[19:51] St. Anthony defense.
[20:05] They get it in bounds in the lane. Put
[20:08] it up. No good. And it's going St.
[20:10] Anony's way. So,
[20:16] not a bad look inside. Just off the
[20:19] mark. Now St. Anthony with a chance to
[20:21] respond. Good pass inside, but the
[20:24] defense is there. Hit the block. It'll
[20:27] say St. Anony's ball though
[20:36] and turn over there leads to a fast
[20:40] break that is not finished
[20:44] by Somaya Connor. Pass inside.
[20:49] That was Thea
[20:52] Shash Shashtel.
[20:55] Tough last name for me, but gets her
[20:59] first points of the game.
[21:10] >> Couple missed shots from Columbia
[21:12] Heights and Shane Anthony has a chance
[21:14] to go the other way. Good pass inside.
[21:16] It's put up and in for Lomar Exel.
[21:26] 31-13. 8 and 1/2 minutes to go here in
[21:29] the half.
[21:36] Dangerous pass. It's kept in bounds but
[21:40] unable to recover.
[21:43] Schuman now has it and it's picked from
[21:45] behind. Goes back to her. Leinski with a
[21:48] three-pointer.
[21:50] Knocks it down.
[21:52] Great shot from Lasinski and
[21:58] >> Columbia Heights. No way to stop the
[22:00] bloodletting that is occurring. They're
[22:02] down 21 with still 8 minutes to go in
[22:06] the first half.
[22:12] Pass up on the fast break. Finish with
[22:14] the left hand is Theos Chhatel.
[22:19] Another
[22:28] shot goes up in the post and missed up
[22:31] ahead. Could not finish the fast break,
[22:33] but
[22:35] no butt. Just couldn't finish the fast
[22:37] break, you know. Columbia Heights will
[22:40] take it, but it goes the other way.
[22:45] Driving all the way. Cannot finish.
[22:50] Ball comes out
[22:53] >> and the mid-range shot for Maya Allen is
[22:57] there.
[23:14] >> Another jump ball. It'll go to St.
[23:16] Anthony.
[23:24] So for guys
[23:28] >> number 32
[23:32] with
[23:32] >> a 25point lead.
[23:34] >> Number 31
[23:36] >> with 650 left in the first half.
[23:40] >> St. and Anthony obviously sitting very
[23:42] comfortably.
[23:53] There's Schuman. A three is up.
[23:58] Splashed it in.
[24:01] >> So Schuman is having a good game.
[24:14] Bratton trying to work it around.
[24:23] Columbia Heights offense looking for any
[24:25] kind of space.
[24:27] Can't find it, but it'll stay their
[24:30] ball. 8 seconds on the shot clock.
[24:36] Last one. Last one.
[24:54] Another
[24:56] turnover.
[25:06] >> Under six minutes now at the half.
[25:11] >> 28 point lead
[25:15] for St. Anthony.
[25:32] St. Anthony will inbound.
[25:39] Dangerous pass inside to fight for it,
[25:42] but it'll ultimately come out. Now back
[25:45] at the three-point line.
[25:51] and rolled off the knee of Rebecca
[25:54] Nelson. It's a turnover. So, Columbia
[25:56] Heights with a chance to respond.
[26:02] Good pass inside.
[26:09] And Columbia Heights finally gets a
[26:11] basket.
[26:15] And a steal here on the fast break.
[26:18] Bratton
[26:19] who finishes.
[26:23] So a couple backto back good looks for
[26:27] Columbia Heights.
[26:37] Dangerous inside pass. Another steel.
[26:43] >> Bratton a three-pointer and knocks it
[26:46] down.
[26:48] So all of a sudden, Columbia Heights
[26:50] with a spark.
[26:53] >> Four and a half left to go here in the
[26:55] half.
[26:58] And the Columbia Heights offense turning
[27:00] it on a little bit,
[27:07] but a nice response on the other end.
[27:21] Inside pass. A lot of blue jerseys but
[27:26] are going to call foul.
[27:35] >> Foul number three.
[27:40] Another
[27:50] good look from three. That one's long.
[27:53] Offensive rebounds put back up. Still a
[27:55] fight for it. Schuman picks it up and
[27:58] saves it. Down to Nelson. Nelson going
[28:01] the other way.
[28:04] There's Schuman.
[28:08] Nelson will try a three.
[28:11] No good.
[28:19] Bratton with a three-point attempt and
[28:21] knocks another one down. So Sophia
[28:24] Bratton providing a spark for Columbia
[28:27] Heights off.
[28:31] >> Schuman with the baseline floater. She
[28:34] knocks it down.
[28:36] human.
[28:51] >> So St. Anthony will take a timeout.
[28:56] And yeah, I mean, even though a little
[29:00] bit of offense is coming on for Columbia
[29:02] Heights, they've dug themselves such a
[29:04] big hole
[29:06] that, you know, if you're St. Anthony,
[29:09] you're playing downhill for the rest of
[29:11] the game pretty much.
[29:13] >> But look, I mean, anything can happen
[29:16] and the way Sophia Bratton has been
[29:20] shooting the past couple of shot
[29:21] attempts, they've been falling. So, all
[29:24] it takes is a couple big shots to jump
[29:26] start an offense and all of a sudden you
[29:28] start to see a run, your lead dissipates
[29:32] faster than
[29:34] than you would think. Uh, but right now,
[29:36] St. Anthony sitting comfortably with a
[29:39] 22point lead. Their offense has looked
[29:42] really good. But in Columbia Heights,
[29:44] even if their offense takes it into
[29:46] gear, their outside shooting starts to
[29:49] come out, they've still got to play
[29:51] defense. You know, uh they're still
[29:54] lacking on the defensive end, which is
[29:57] allowing St. Anthony to continue to
[30:01] score on them. So, you definitely got to
[30:04] improve on both ends of your Columbia
[30:06] Heights, but at least the spark of
[30:08] offense is something a positive as we
[30:13] are 3 minutes away from the end of the
[30:15] first half.
[30:50] Columbia Heights now to inbound after
[30:52] the timeout.
[30:56] fight for the ball and another turnover.
[30:59] Unless it's going to be a foul.
[31:09] >> Oh, behind there's number four.
[31:15] >> 3 minutes to go. St. Anthony offense now
[31:20] looking to expand on this lead. And
[31:23] that's a good way to do it. Find Rebecca
[31:25] Nelson in the post.
[31:36] Drive inside Sophia Bratton.
[31:41] She's becoming a problem for this St.
[31:42] Anthony defense that's trying to find a
[31:45] way to keep her from shooting outside
[31:48] while also not foul her when she drives
[31:50] inside. But she's got to knock down a
[31:53] couple free throws.
[32:04] And she cannot knock down the first.
[32:21] She can't knock down the second either,
[32:23] but a good offensive board there. Finds
[32:26] Bratton open for a second, but the
[32:29] defense recovers. Good inside pass.
[32:34] Good finish.
[32:36] Tamaya Jackson puts it in
[32:45] >> and a good steal there from Bratton.
[32:51] Floater and another foul. So, she's
[32:53] going back to the line.
[32:58] Struggled from the line. Excuse me.
[33:01] struggled from the line on her last trip
[33:03] there, but will now have a chance to
[33:05] redeem her redeem herself with two free
[33:08] throws.
[33:14] >> Cannot get the first team number 13.
[33:30] and knocks down the second
[33:39] >> dangerous inside pass. That's where St.
[33:42] Anthony has found some turnovers is
[33:43] their dangerous inside pass. But this
[33:45] time it turns into a great look for
[33:48] Rebecca Nelson.
[34:04] And coast to coast, it's Linski who
[34:07] cannot finish at the rim.
[34:10] And
[34:12] what does it call? It's going to stay
[34:14] St. Anony's ball.
[34:30] Inside pass. They kick it back out. It's
[34:32] too high. This will be an over and back.
[34:45] >> Now Columbia Heights will get it on
[34:47] their end.
[34:49] Minute and a half to go.
[34:54] >> See if Columbia Heights can
[34:57] >> break even more into the lead that St.
[34:59] Anthony had built. It was as much as 28
[35:02] at one point.
[35:09] Straight, strike, strike.
[35:14] >> Miss shot inside for Tamaya Jackson.
[35:30] >> Inside pass to Schuman. Another inside
[35:33] pass. Picked back out.
[35:36] >> Schuman beyond the ark.
[35:39] knocks down a three. So, she has shot
[35:41] the ball well from outside.
[35:49] >> Here's Bratton to respond.
[35:52] Cannot
[36:03] >> and it's called a kick ball.
[36:07] I I don't know about that one, but
[36:09] Columbia Heights needs a break and
[36:11] that'll give it to him. And so Bratton
[36:15] now looking inside. Bad pass.
[36:30] >> About 35 seconds here. It's Linski from
[36:34] the corner. cannot get it. It'll stay
[36:38] with St. Anthony though, so they'll get
[36:40] another shot at it. 32 seconds to be
[36:42] exact
[36:44] left in the half.
[36:54] Bad pass. That was a foul that didn't
[36:59] get called. Uh but inside pass and it's
[37:02] turnover. So now Columbia Heist stolen
[37:05] right back for St. Anthony. And now a
[37:07] foul is called the aggressive defense
[37:12] of Naz Rafara.
[37:14] >> There's number four Naz.
[37:19] >> Substitution number 12.
[37:29] >> Oinski to inbound.
[37:50] The midi by Wasinski does not go.
[37:54] Columbia High going the other way. Tries
[37:56] to pass away. Nice picked up by Nelson.
[38:01] Minski could not get it before the
[38:03] buzzer. And so that's going to be our
[38:07] score at halftime.
[38:09] Uh 526
[38:11] >> 226.
[38:16] >> A very different different story than
[38:19] the boys game obviously.
[38:22] um in the boys game if you were able to
[38:26] catch it.
[38:31] Um it was much closer at halftime. It
[38:34] was a four-point game at halftime. Here
[38:38] in the girls game though, it is uh
[38:44] well, it's not four. In fact, uh St.
[38:46] Anthony has double the amount of points
[38:49] that Columbia Heights has here at the
[38:51] half.
[38:53] But Columbia Heights did see some sparks
[38:55] of offense mainly from some outside
[38:58] shooting by Sophia Bratton.
[39:01] And
[39:03] you know it it really comes down to ball
[39:07] control, not turning it over, not
[39:09] allowing St. Anthony to get easy shots
[39:11] on turnovers, and then also figuring out
[39:14] a way to stop scores. If you look at St.
[39:17] Anony's scorers,
[39:19] they've had
[39:22] eight different players score in this
[39:24] game so far. And
[39:28] those eight players have scored multiple
[39:30] times each. So, it's it's been an
[39:33] excellent uh all-around game for for St.
[39:36] Anthony so far, but you never know what
[39:39] it'll h what'll happen. Uh so, we'll go
[39:41] into halftime.
[39:45] Uh with that being your score and uh
[39:47] we'll see what happens when we come
[39:51] back.
[39:57] >> I don't remember how it started.
[40:03] >> Our back and forth,
[40:06] it always came back.
[40:09] >> Thanks,
[40:10] >> Dad.
[40:11] >> You probably don't remember what you
[40:12] told me. That was perfect.
[40:14] >> But I heard every word.
[40:20] >> And we are back here at St. Anthony
[40:24] Village High School, ready for the
[40:25] second half of our girls game.
[40:30] As a reminder, I'm your announcer, Alex
[40:33] Susco. It's always a pleasure to be
[40:35] announcing for you. And it hasn't been a
[40:38] tight game so far, but maybe that can
[40:41] change here in the second half. Columbia
[40:44] Heights has a lot of ground to make up.
[40:47] And um we'll see if they can do it.
[40:50] Sophia Bratton did provide a spark for
[40:53] them. She has the ball right now. Uh did
[40:56] provide an offensive spark, but St.
[40:58] Anthony has been able to counter it.
[41:00] Nobody else on Columbia Heights has
[41:03] really been able to do that.
[41:06] And as I say that, I get humbled.
[41:16] But St. Anthony on the response that is
[41:19] Maya Allen.
[41:26] So the back and forth continues.
[41:32] Bad pass there leads to a turnover. It's
[41:35] twoon one inside pass. Rolls out. So
[41:41] could not complete the fast break.
[41:53] Schuman could not finish. Offensive
[41:56] board is Nelson.
[41:59] She continues what she was doing
[42:02] in the first half, which is good to see.
[42:10] Corner three is short. Might have been
[42:14] touched by the St. Anthony defender.
[42:18] That pass Linski, a great defensive save
[42:23] from Somaya Connor. came in there for
[42:25] the
[42:28] block.
[42:36] Another steel
[42:39] and thrown up this time. No good. Fight
[42:41] for the rebound again.
[42:44] Who's going to come away with it? It's
[42:46] going to be a jump ball. So, we'll see
[42:48] where it goes. It'll go to St. Anthony.
[43:03] Nelson with an easy drive there.
[43:07] Defensive collapse
[43:09] for Columbia Heights. Lead back up to
[43:12] 30.
[43:18] Inside pass
[43:21] and Tamaya Jackson will get bailed out
[43:24] with the foul. She'll get a couple shots
[43:26] at the line.
[43:28] All on the Huskies. Number 22. Grab a
[43:31] shoot.
[43:47] and not hit the first free throw.
[43:54] Highest arcing shot I've ever seen. Uh,
[43:58] it's no good.
[44:02] But, uh, St. Anthony now with a chance
[44:04] to respond. Inside pass as Schuman. She
[44:06] gets hit and will go to the line for
[44:09] two.
[44:14] So, a chance now for Schuman to knock
[44:16] two down at the line.
[44:18] >> Iris,
[44:26] >> she knocks down her first.
[44:51] And the second one is good as well. So
[44:55] Schuman capitalizes at the line.
[45:06] Drive inside. Kick back out beyond the
[45:08] arc.
[45:10] And what is it called? Timeout taken by
[45:13] Columbia Heights.
[45:18] So yeah, look, I mean,
[45:20] you're down 32 points. Obviously,
[45:23] there's still a lot of time in the game,
[45:25] which
[45:27] that may not be good because that just
[45:29] means there's time for the lead to
[45:30] expand also.
[45:33] But,
[45:34] you know, I think there are obvious
[45:36] things that Columbia Heights can improve
[45:38] on even if they're a smaller team or
[45:42] just have less talent on their team,
[45:45] which appears to be somewhat the case.
[45:48] Um, is they can limit the turnovers like
[45:52] don't make bad passes, don't
[45:56] you know, don't beat yourself, I guess,
[45:59] is the idea is like if St. Anthony beats
[46:02] you because they make more shots,
[46:05] they're the more talented team, have
[46:06] better players, whatever. Uh, that's one
[46:09] thing. I mean, lose, but it just makes
[46:12] it all the worse when you're
[46:14] contributing to your own loss by beating
[46:17] yourself with mistakes that you
[46:18] shouldn't be making. And we've seen a
[46:20] couple of those from Columbia Heights
[46:22] tonight. You know, obviously Columbia
[46:25] need to figure out a way to
[46:27] get their shot down, make their shots,
[46:30] but you know, you can't coach that. What
[46:32] you can coach is don't turn the ball
[46:36] over, make the smart play. And so far,
[46:38] we haven't seen that from from Columbia
[46:41] Heights overall.
[46:44] But it's something they can fix. And we
[46:46] did see them break a little bit into the
[46:48] lead. We saw offensive sparks, so we
[46:50] know they're capable of it. you know,
[46:52] they have players who can make shots.
[46:53] So, it just is a matter of how do you
[46:57] put those people in the best position to
[47:00] score
[47:02] um while also limiting what the other
[47:05] team can do on the offensive end.
[47:24] St. Anthony in no hurry here to do much.
[47:30] Nelson
[47:31] into the corner. There's Schuman
[47:35] working it around
[47:37] into the corner. It's Lzinski. She's
[47:39] going to drive baseline. Tried to pass
[47:41] it. Winds up in Schuman's hands.
[47:45] Dangerous pass inside. gets stolen.
[47:57] That's going to be over and back.
[48:02] So, those are the kind of things that I
[48:04] I was kind of just talking about. I was
[48:05] like over and backs where St. Anthony
[48:08] doesn't even touch the ball.
[48:11] You got to not dribble out of control
[48:15] >> as the corner three from Nelson is no
[48:18] good. Linski on the offensive board
[48:20] inside.
[48:22] Finally finished by Hale Haley Chiron.
[48:45] They called for a foul down there in the
[48:47] post. A lot of hands going at the ball
[48:50] when it went into Tamaya Jackson.
[48:55] >> Substitution in the Islanders number 10,
[48:58] Betty Lup.
[49:10] Crosscourt passed and traveled on the
[49:13] pump face.
[49:30] >> Nelson could not get the and one, but
[49:33] will go to the line for two. I mean,
[49:35] it's easy to see watching this game why
[49:38] St. Anthony has gotten off to a good
[49:42] start. Uh, in fact, it makes you wonder
[49:45] if maybe they should even have a better
[49:47] record than they currently do, which is
[49:49] four and three. Uh, they just have many,
[49:53] you know, a lot of players who can score
[49:57] and a lot of offensive weapons. You
[50:00] know, in that first half, you saw
[50:02] scoring from eight different players.
[50:12] And so with that many scoring options,
[50:16] you know,
[50:18] you're a dangerous team.
[50:20] and they've been knocking down their
[50:22] shots tonight,
[50:26] which you know, arguably the the
[50:28] Columbia Heights defense could be better
[50:30] or whatever, but
[50:33] >> I mean, at the end of the day, you have
[50:35] all these weapons. You have people who
[50:36] can shoot threes and all this. So, we've
[50:39] got a good team in in this St. Anthony
[50:42] girls team, and it's not hard to see why
[50:44] they're able to accumulate some wins.
[51:04] tried to beat the shot clock but
[51:09] could not. Columbia Heights players
[51:12] obviously frustrated.
[51:15] They still have to play 13 and a half
[51:17] minutes and they're down 36 points. So,
[51:21] I'd be frustrated, too.
[51:26] >> Schuman, another three-point attempt.
[51:30] >> Like butter drops.
[51:37] >> 39-point lead.
[51:47] St. Anthony coming the other way and
[51:50] it's finished inside by Maya Allen.
[52:07] But the three-point attempt for Columbia
[52:09] Heights is no good.
[52:17] >> Pass inside to Linski down to Nelson.
[52:20] She gets hammered and we'll go to the
[52:22] line.
[52:33] Nelson
[52:35] >> been to the line already this half.
[52:37] Knock down both her free throws. She
[52:39] gets another chance to do that here.
[52:42] And we'll knock down the first
[52:51] number
[52:53] >> lead up to 42 points.
[52:59] rebound.
[53:01] >> And
[53:04] Nelson hits her second free throw.
[53:06] >> Make that 43 points.
[53:15] Bratton trying to create space. Pass
[53:17] inside. Decent look. Cannot get the roll
[53:21] though.
[53:23] >> And a great steal from Bratton.
[53:26] and she'll
[53:28] >> finish at the rim.
[53:32] >> So, good defensive work from Bratton. Of
[53:34] course, offensive work as well.
[53:40] Floater in the post does not go. And now
[53:43] a fight for the rebound. It'll be a jump
[53:45] ball. Let's see who it's with.
[53:53] It'll be St. St. Anony's ball.
[54:08] >> Three-point attempt is off there.
[54:10] Offensive board put up and fouled is
[54:15] Maya Allen. So Maya Allen now will head
[54:17] to the line to see if she can make a
[54:19] few.
[54:21] We check out
[54:38] >> short on the first free throw.
[54:42] >> Substitution number 23.
[54:55] cannot make the second either. But
[54:57] another offensive rebound
[55:00] pass inside and great finish for Shtel.
[55:18] And a good look for Iris Bergen. She has
[55:21] six points on the night for Columbia
[55:23] Heights.
[55:27] Schuman gets trapped. Here's a
[55:29] three-point attempt. That one is off.
[55:32] Nelson, another offensive rebound. She's
[55:34] been doing great at that this game.
[55:36] Another offensive rebound and she'll get
[55:39] called on the travel.
[55:42] But I mean,
[55:44] those are the kind of hustle plays that
[55:46] win games.
[55:52] You know, going after every offensive
[55:54] board,
[55:57] it's important work even when you're up
[56:00] 41. There's a midi and a great shot
[56:04] there for Tamaya Jackson.
[56:06] Jackson
[56:11] >> wide open in the corner is Shel. She
[56:14] misses though. So great look. Just
[56:17] couldn't knock it down. Now coming the
[56:19] other way. Columbia Heights kick out.
[56:22] They want a chance out of three. Not
[56:24] going to be there. They get an offensive
[56:26] board of their own. It's blocked, but
[56:28] it'll stay their ball.
[56:50] drive inside.
[56:52] looking real good for Somaya Kun
[57:00] and a response the other way by Maya
[57:03] Allen will earn her a trip to the line.
[57:08] She struggled from the line her last
[57:10] trip there, but has a chance here to
[57:12] make two more.
[57:23] gets that one to go.
[57:42] >> Second shot, no good.
[58:02] A lot of stuff going on down there
[58:04] results in a jump ball which will stay
[58:07] Columbia Heights ball.
[58:09] >> Substitution
[58:10] for the manager number one Sophia
[58:13] Bradley.
[58:26] in the post. Tamaya Jackson,
[58:30] she's found some success down there.
[58:33] She's got four points this half. Had
[58:35] four points in the first
[58:39] and foul call Maya Allen. So, we'll get
[58:42] some more free throws here.
[58:53] All number 23.
[59:04] >> Maya Allen knocks down the first.
[59:18] knocks down the second as well.
[59:28] Three-point attempt is no good, but they
[59:31] get the offensive board.
[59:34] Another offensive board, but thrown off
[59:38] of her teammate
[59:42] St. Anthony will take over
[60:03] number one, Sophia Brad.
[60:08] We've got a deal at the concession
[60:09] stand. All hot food is now just $1.
[60:14] All hot food at the concession stand is
[60:17] just $1.
[60:20] So Maya Allen back at the line.
[60:24] 916 to go.
[60:33] not get the first.
[60:36] Bratton comes the other way.
[60:40] Thought about a corner three, drives
[60:43] instead.
[60:44] We're get more free throws this time
[60:46] from Nasra Farara.
[60:48] >> Foul on the Huskies number 31.
[61:08] cannot get the first
[61:20] but does get the second for her first
[61:23] point in the game.
[61:29] >> Cannot finish the layup. All
[61:53] right. So, it looks like we got running
[61:55] clock here. The Huskies are up by enough
[61:59] to warrant that. So,
[62:02] Mercy rule in effect.
[62:23] >> Far
[62:24] smothered down the baseline and it gets
[62:27] stolen. And here comes Linski trying to
[62:29] beat everybody and contact there at the
[62:34] end. She'll go to the line.
[62:38] Stopped a layup, but too much contact.
[62:41] She'll get two free throws.
[62:44] >> On the Highlanders number 24.
[62:55] These will be her first points of the
[62:57] half. She knocks down the first one.
[63:08] >> Seven and a half to go here.
[63:11] Knocks down the second one as well.
[63:31] Bratton knocks down a three. That's her
[63:34] first three of the half.
[63:36] She did kind of catch fire from there in
[63:39] the first half.
[63:46] And a bad turnover there for St.
[63:49] Anthony.
[63:56] Bratton taking it up.
[64:02] >> Being guarded by Allen.
[64:05] Crosscourt pass. Another three-point
[64:07] attempt. This one is off. St. Anthony
[64:11] can't rebound and a foul is called.
[64:17] So it'll stay on Columbia Heights end.
[64:20] They'll inbound the ball from the
[64:21] baseline.
[64:27] Some subs will come in for St. Anthony
[64:32] as we
[64:34] get under six minutes to go.
[64:44] A good pass inside. And a good finish
[64:47] from Tamaya Jackson.
[64:52] >> St. Anthony trying to get around the
[64:54] fullcourt press. They do
[64:59] but could not finish the layup.
[65:02] Now Colombia Ice coming downhill. It's
[65:05] Bratton going all the way taking it
[65:07] herself.
[65:17] And a turnover by St. Anthony. St.
[65:21] Anthony kind of letting their guard down
[65:23] here recently
[65:28] with five minutes to go.
[65:31] Some bad turnovers and the
[65:35] offense from Columbia Heights finding
[65:37] the bottom of the net.
[65:42] A miss there.
[65:44] St. Anthony, no need to rush, which
[65:47] they've
[65:48] been doing on their past couple runs,
[65:50] trying to finish in transition when they
[65:54] don't really need to. They can slow it
[65:56] down,
[66:01] but Schuman doesn't. And
[66:05] last touch by Wasinski.
[66:20] Ratton trying to work her way inside.
[66:23] Does deflected out of bounds.
[66:27] Four minutes to go.
[66:38] >> Another deflection.
[66:48] Drive inside. It's kicked out. A good
[66:51] look for Nelson. In and out. No burgers
[66:54] and a block on the baseline.
[67:03] Now a jump ball.
[67:14] 3 minutes and 15 seconds left.
[67:20] >> Here comes Schuman
[67:22] trying to drive inside. Good defense.
[67:27] Good pass inside and one.
[67:31] >> Nelson. So Rebecca Nelson has had a nice
[67:34] game working in the post
[67:37] now has a chance of a three-point play
[67:43] on the night. She has 18 points. Very
[67:46] good night for her. She has a chance to
[67:48] add to that total
[67:51] >> with another free throw.
[67:59] >> And she does knock it down.
[68:02] Hang on. Hang on. Hang on.
[68:22] Bratton brings it up. Going for a three.
[68:26] That one is off. Offensive board is
[68:28] there.
[68:39] St. Anthony coming down the other way. A
[68:42] good open look.
[68:44] for Lomar Axel.
[68:47] She knocks that down.
[68:52] Minute and a half to go. Bratton might
[68:55] as well just heave up a three. Why not?
[69:05] Inside pass poked away.
[69:09] Lot of hands
[69:12] and Nelson could not control it.
[69:36] Shot is off. And now we check in under a
[69:40] minute.
[69:42] Could not finish the layup on the other
[69:44] end.
[69:48] Bratton to go right back. Cannot do.
[69:53] Cannot finish the layup either. Shot is
[69:56] missed. Another shot is missed. Another
[69:59] shot is missed. Another shot is missed.
[70:02] But a foul.
[70:13] Huskies number three.
[70:19] >> So, a couple free throws will come for
[70:21] Angelica Machuka.
[70:26] She'll get the first
[70:40] and she gets the second as well.
[70:44] >> And the game's over. So obviously
[70:49] uh dominating performance by
[70:54] >> uh by the Huskies.
[70:58] >> And
[71:00] that'll do it.
[71:05] St. Anthony. The final score being
