POLL: Casa Grande 70 Maricopa 47

[coachpollins]

Our best defensive game against Maricopa: We followed our defensve principles, footwork, weak side focus,cuts denial without getting beat on dives and backdoor cuts, still must improve on locating first, box out, secure our rebounds and conduct a fundamental pass,then outlet and run our "Cougar Early Offense Break". I grade our execution and attention to detail : C+
