Ingraham boys seal easy win over Tyee, 69-36
Tue, 12/27/2011
The Tyee boy’s basketball team remains winless after they fell to Ingraham, 69-36, Thursday night. Size seemed to play a major factor in the game. Ingraham has seven players over six foot compared to Tyee’s three six footers. Rebounding and getting easy second point baskets was Ingraham’s key to their victory.
Tyee struggled shooting the ball from the outside and didn’t have success driving to the basket with the lane being clogged up by Ingraham’s big men. Tyee shot just 1-14 from three-point range and just 2-8 free throws. Tyee also turned the ball over 25 times, cheating themselves out of potential points. Despite the big win, Ingraham struggled shooting the ball throughout the game going 7-27 from three point range and making just 12 of 23 free throws.
Ingraham center Malik Barnes had a pair of impressive dunks in the first half, and guard Lee Anderson shot the ball well making three three-pointers. Ingraham’s record overall now stands at 3-3, but they still remain winless in conference play. Tyee, still winless, will be on the road Tuesday, Dec. 27 at Tahoma High School.
