South Webster 58 a final


... Final Four, State Semifinals ... South Webster, 22-3, vs Cornerstone Christian 20-8 ... Ohio Dominican University ... winner goes to the University of Dayton - to The Show ... CCA's big gun, 6-4 sr. Quinn Kwasniak averaging 37 ppg ... the Jeeps led by 6-8 sr. Eli Roberts averaging 20 ppg ... would they cancel out each other and force the better supporting cast to determine the outcome of this one? or would one of the 2 big guns go off and carry their TEAM to the D7 Championship game vs either Russia or Arlington @ UD ??? ... Cornerstone Christian Academy 66 South Webster 58 a final ...

... Coach Persin's Jeeps may have played their best quarter of the year - regular season or post season - in the opening period of this one ... all 5 Jeep starters got on the board - Hunter Barnard led the pack with 9 pts/Dylan Shupert 7/ Eli Roberts 7/ Owen Mault 2 / Christian White 1 ... 26 points in the 1st frame for South Webster ... the SW defense limited the scoring to their marquee player - CCA's prolific scorer Quinn Kwasniak - 12 pts ... the only other scoring came from 6-5 jr. Darrien Davis 2 pts in the paint and a Hudson Funk transition bucket 2pts ... 16 pts for the Patriots ... South Webster 26 Cornerstone Christian 16 after 1 ... in the post season, one the key WINNING team characteristics is consistency - defensive consistency, offensive consistency - you love having the BIG quarter offensively & you "ain't" sending back points if you get a big qtr BUT to get where you want to be - surviving and advancing - you need consistency... CCA had that - consistency as they put up 16 pts in the opening period, fell behind by 10 points ... 2nd period - the Patriots didn't try to get it all back at once - played solid D turning SW over 3 times to take away Jeep opportunities offensively ... on their offensive end - Kwasnicak established HIS game with 12 points in the 1st ... in the 2nd CCA looked to find some support offensively - enter soph. PG Hudson Funk ... Funk took advantage of the double teams on Kwasniak, found himself open outside the 3 point line - made the Jeeps pay with 3 treys in the period ... Kwasniak added a triple from deep & a patented 12 foot floater in the paint for 2pts/ 17 for the half ... Kolsen Keeper added 2 points on a Kwasniak dime ... CCA another 16 point quarter on top of the first qtr 16 pointer ... Cornerstone CA put on 3/4 court pressure, slowed the SW attack ... nothing drastic, just enough pressure that forced the Jeeps to play deliberate for 3/4 of the court - make the good pass, think about making not only a good pass, but the right pass ... the CCA defense held South Webster to 3 second period fgs - 6pts ... the good spacing, making the extra pass had disappeared while the CCA offense added in more support role players ... South Webster 32 Cornerstone Christian 32 a the half ... the opening 3-4 minutes coming out of the locker room are important minutes in any game ... BOTH teams played well, held serve the first 4 minutes into the 3rd period ... more of the supporting players for CCA got involved as sr. Asiah West got the ball on the blocks for 2pts ... soph Kolsen Keeper added a transition bucket 2pts ... Hudson Funk picked up where he left off - hitting an open 3 pointer from the left corner - good for 3 ... Kwasniak was held in check - relatively speaking - for 4 minutes, before the 6-4 sr. again put up a one handed floater from 12 ft for 2pts ... SW's Dylan Shupert with a 2 pt finish in transition to go with 2 pts on the block ... Owen Mault got one to fall in the paint after having a couple of tough ones roll off the rim ... 2pts ... Roberts with a college 3 pointer to tie the game at 41-41 with 3:51 left in the 3rd ... consistency - the Patriots outscored the Jeeps 9-3 in the closing 3 minutes of the 3rd as Darrien Davis added a bucket around the rim 2pts ... Kwasniak with 3 pt attempt - miss but fouled - 3/3 from the FT line ... Davis inside - fouled- miss/make .. SW's Eli Roberts with a deep 3 - miss/fouled/ 3 for 3 ... Kwasniak with an NBA 3 pointer to end the quarter ... CCA with an 18-12 scoring advantage in the 3rd - separation ... the Jeeps were now the chasers ... Cornerstone Christian 50 South Webster 44 after 3 ... Kwasniak had put up 25 thru 3 ... he missed shots but it seemed that between Funk and Kwasniak - the Patriots were hitting everything they threw up .. 7 threes thru 3 ... 6:02 CCA 52-46 ... a Kwasniak 15 ft floater in the paint ... Roberts a three point attempt/fouled - 2 for 3 from the line ... 3:08 SW had closed to within 2 pts 53-55 ... a Kwasniak triple - 3pts ... the Jeeps with a run in shutting out CCA on 4 straight possessions while putting up points - Hunter Barnard with a 15 fter from the left elbow ... a Barnard offensive board/putback 2pts ... Christian White with 3 pter ... 53-55 timeout Patriots ... still 53-55 ... drive by Kwasniak, double team leaving Darrien Davis open at the rim for 2pts ... CCA 57-53 2:20 on the clock ... Kwasniak deep trey - 3pts ... Roberts 3 pter for the Jeeps ... 60-56 ... Keeper for CCA in the paint - 2pts ... Brycin McClintic an offensive board - stickback 2pts ... 62-58 CCA with :43 to play ... the Patriots closed it out from the FT line as Hudson went 1/2, Kwasniak 3/4 while the Jeeps failed to add points down the stretch ...
