Now the girls JH games that go to OT at 8-8 are a different story. Kind of like the story of slow torture!

We have lately been averaging 40-50 points per game (pretty darn good for 8th grade girls), but we really were struggling this fall. Had 32 minute game where we went into overtime at 11-11. Ended up winning 21-15 after a 5-minute OT. Hard to say why we found it so hard to play the game for the first 32 minutes, but those games are awful to be around for all participants.
However, in this case, the overtime was probably the best thing of all because it was the first time it looked slightly like basketball.
