Watch out for Treynor in this one. I've seen them play a couple times this year. They pose some difficult match-ups.

I have been impressed by Treynor's Nolan Chapman. & hope to see them vs ICR in the championship.

24-21 Treynor at half time. AP has missed a bunch of wide open shots but Treynor has made enough mistakes to keep it close at half. Ross Cooper had to sit out a bunch of the first half due to foul trouble. AP having a lot of trouble with Treynor's size

A-P had a great look at a 3 to tie it up with less than 5 seconds to go. The kid held the follow through like he thought he had it...but it just missed and Treynor rebounded and sealed the win with a free throw. That was a great game and everything State Basketball should be. A fantastic finish by two great teams.

Back to back just great games. Gotta love the state tournament. Treynor played a great game. They were really aggressive getting the ball to the rim and just dominated the boards. I can't figure out how someone with Ellis's size is so bad at boxing out. A-P kept themselves in it with a terrific press and some hot outside shooting in the second half. In the end though I thought the better team won. Fantastic game.

Great great game. Rebounding and free throws killed AP.
