"We played a decent first half as we took a 25-12 lead at halftime, but we struggled with their pressure in the second half and were just out of sync," commented Barnesville Assistant Coach Tracy Hinsz.  "Wwe gave them too many easy transition baskets and they mounted a comeback with a late 17-7 run but we were able to hold on."
