Bizarre STM Tourney score

[dovetail]

I was looking at the box score of the STM/Stanford game. STM did not record one free throw point in the game. They had no free throw attempts in the whole game. How can you play four quarters of defense in a high school game and not commit one shooting foul? I have never noticed anything like this before. Stanford must really play disciplined defense.

I noticed that too. Thought it was impossible.

Part of that probably has to do with St. Mark's too. How many shots did they take? And of those, how many were in the paint?

Nothing against Sanfords defense, i feel it has more to do st marks offense. They really don't try to penetrate, the swing the ball around for a while until the get a wide open shot. Not many of their shots are contested.

Like Sals2011 said, think about the St Marks "offense". They don't put up many shots, so you wouldn't expect them to get to the foul line very often.

they only shot 1 free throw the time they played eachother in the regular season also

but this only happened when they played Sanford

EE is right just looked through their box scores, they had at least 10 foul shot in all but 3 games. Two of them were against sanford and the other was milford.
