A good team knows how to bounce back, a good team learns from mistakes and makes the right adjustments so that the same mistakes don’t happen in the next game. The Rams had to make adjustments fast as they played the Overlea Falcons just 24 hours after the lost to Poly.
The Rams were determined to win this game because as the playoffs approach, they know that every win counts. The first quarter was back and forth as the two teams were feeling each other out. After a quick pep talk from Coach English the Rams came out firing. Senior Trevor Atlefack provided the Rams with multiple rebounds and tough points in the paint. Dwayne Banks also helped out defensively. Overlea guard Keith Terry couldn’t get past Banks and when pressured, Banks forced Terry to make bad passes that led to turnovers and easy buckets for the Rams.
The Rams then turned to their shooting in the second half and with multiple 3 pointers by Brandon Brice and Sterling Hughes the Rams looked like they were going to pull away. The Rams showed great teamwork and their passing this game was excellent. Antony Granger had another solid game and he stole the show with his powerful dunk after a beautiful pass from Dwayne Banks.
That alley-oop combined with some late game sharp-shooting and great defense propelled the Rams to a bounce back double digit victory against Overlea. The win proves once again that the Rams know how to bounce back and make adjustments. Hopefully this win is the start of a new winning-streak so that the Rams can finish the regular season stronger and more confident than ever heading into the playoffs.
