St Louis couldn't quite run down Tulsa NOAH Tuesday |
When I saw the tournament brackets, I circled a possible Wednesday night Class 5A gold ball championship game between the two top seeds, Tulsa NOAH and Nashville. Well, after two fantastic semifinal games, I'll get the game I anticipated. But the road to Wednesday's round was not easy.
After jumping out to a 21-10 advantage over the St Louis Blue Knights, Tulsa saw its lead shrink to 1 (31-30) near the end of the third quarter. A late flurry gave NOAH the win, but it was certainly hard fought. And Nashville trailed OKC Storm North 30-19 before one of NCHBC's best players, Caleb Hollander, seemingly converted every opportunity he got in the paint during the second half. This performance was especially impressive because he played the entire second half with three (eventually four) fouls.

Wednesday's gold ball round finale should be a great one!
