Monacan boys played so uninspired. Mos def didn't look like the team that won it all last year.
Absolutely right and it has been that way all year. We got out rebounded by 25 boards. Chemistry was never right. Started the season with 3 returning starters. Our starting PG "left the team" mid season. We actually got worse during the season as other teams improved. Every now and again we showed glimmers of what we could have been like when we beat Western branch on the road. Beat Hanover by 20pts in the beginning of the season to then losing to them twice at the end. We blew so many leads this year it was amazing and if we did fall behind we wilted like a dying flower.
No cohesiveness on offense, lose every loose ball, play one on one and jack 3's we never make. Last year we made those 3's.
I understand these are kids but I feel like the effort and intensity wasn't always there. If they just didn't "have it" I wouldn't be so critical but they had talent. On the bright side there is plenty of Bball talent at Monacan so the we should be competitive for a while.
I wish it would have ended differently for Parham bc he is a class act and can play ball. But at least he got one championship which is more than most can say.
