A win is a win

A win is a win. That is about all you can say about Harbor Beach's 52-37 win over Bad Axe.

Both teams played extremely sloppy in the first half, as there were as many turnovers as points scored in the first quarter. Most of them were on traveling calls.

Both coaches attributed some of the sloppy play to the interruption of their routine, as it has been many days since the team has practiced. HB coach Marilee Schock said her team had a shootout around early on the day of the game and 15 minutes in, every knew they struggling. They knew it might be a bad game.

For Bad Axe, the team is suffereing from a serious lack of confidence. As coach Bob Breault explaiend these girls are mentally beaten down by years of losing, which has sapped them of any assemblance of confidence. He says it also affects the team's ability to lay it all out there on the line when they need to.

Basically the biggest thing for this team is getting a "W" under their belt and building their confidence from there.

Steve Jias will be attending the Ubly @ EPBP girls game tomorrow and we'll have pics up from it late tonight.
