Smyrn wins 65-49. Without Bloodsworth they lose this game...he picked up his 3rd foul early in the 3rd, went to the bench & Smyrna only led 43-41 after 3 quarters after turning the ball over 4 possessions straight. He comes back in the 4th & immediate took control protecting the ball, assists & a few buckets. Anybody watching the game should have been able to see how much of a difference-maker he was tonight. Garnett came off the bench to finish w/ 20 & once again him & Veasley owned the paint. Corbin was a problem...I think he finished w/ 28 but Smyrna played straight denial defense on him all second half.
Another bad/off shooting night for Matthews but probably had about 13-15. He has been getting a lot of help here lately so Smyrna can win without him scoring 20+ depending on how he is being defended.What did Matthews do J?
My first time seeing Woodbridge all year & I have to agree that they definitely play hard & have a lot of heart. They are just undersized & could use another scorer other than Corbin. They kind of remind me of Sussex Tech just not quite as much talent.this is now an even more interesting/significant matchup tonight being as though these two could see each other again next week in the 2nd round...of course Woodbridge is the underdog but them boys play hard and have heart...
