That was a dominant performance from Ballard. They had it all going today inside, outside, and transition. On their third straight trip to State, they look to be a team on a mission this year.

Pella vs SBL
Who you got, and why?

 

[sarcastico]

I was totally going to pick Pella against SBL. Not going to pick them today though. Ballard is just so loaded on offense and have an incredibly balanced attack. I think they take it in what should be a fun game today.

I agree with you sarcastico. I underestimated Ballard, and think they likely win this. Pella likes to get up and down so it should be a fun affair compared to the SBL slow down game.
I thought with the players that returned for Assumption, they were situated well to win it. Credit and hats off to Ballard.

Great game from Pella. Ballard was never able to get comfortable, especially with both bigs dealing with foul trouble. Pella hit the big shots down the stretch that Ballard didn't.
