WE TALKED TO THEM EARLIER THIS WEEK ABOUT THIS LINEUP.

NICE INSIDE AND CAN'T GET IT TO GO.

NO CALL BY THE OFFICIAL.

WHAT THE PLAYERS PLAY.

OFFENSIVE FOUL TO THE OTHER SIDE.

GREAT NO CALL BY THE OFFICIALS.

BECAUSE OF THE HIGH-STAKES HERE IN THIS GAME IF YOU ALLOW THEM TO PLAY LIKE THAT I THINK WE HAVE A SMOOTHER GAME AS THE GAME STARTS PROGRESS.

NICE JOB BY DERRICK IRONS ON THAT BLOCK.

BY THE WAY, THE FOUL WAS ON JAYDEN ELLIS FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

THAT WAS HIS FIRST.

BLUE JACKETS TRYING TO DRAW FIRST BLOOD HERE IN MACON.

BATTLE FOR THE REBOUND.

HOW ABOUT THAT.

AGAIN IT IS DeSHAWN DAVIS AND DERRICK IRONS.

HERE'S WHAT I SAY ABOUT DERRICK IRONS.

HE IS THE ENFORCER.

HE PLAYS BASKETBALL, FOOTBALL AND SOCCER.

HE IS INTIMIDATING ON THE TEAM.

HE'S NOT BACKING DOWN FROM ANYONE IN THIS CONTEST.

THE END OF THE GAME ALREADY TWO JUMP BALLS.

THAT IS HOW THIS GAME IS GOING TO BE PLAYED.

REJECTED BY DAVIS.

HERE COME THE JACKETS.

JOYNER.

18 POINTS ON THE SEASON FOR HIM.

FOUL ON THE REBOUND AND WE ARE GOING THE OTHER WAY.

I LIKE THE TEMPO OF THE GAME.

I LOVE THE TEMPO OF THE GAME ACTUALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT COMING OUT IN ANY KIND OF TENTATIVE WAY.

PLAYERS ARE PLAYING.

THEY ARE SHOOTING THE SHOTS.

THERE BEING AGGRESSIVE.

THIS IS THE KIND OF GAME WE WANT.

THIS IS THE KIND OF GAME WE NEED.

THAT FOUL IS ON DAVIS.

ZY SMART IS NOW IN AS WELL AS NUMBER 5, STEPHON FOX.

THERE IT IS.

ON THE OTHER SIDE, THAT IS JOYNER STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS.

HERE'S THAT BASKET.

NOT ONLY IS WEST THE LEAD ON THE BASKETBALL COURT, IS A QUARTERBACK, TOO.

HE HAS LEADERSHIP IN HIS BLOOD.

HE HAS THE BALL THEY'RE LOOKING INSIDE.

ALMOST HAD AN ASSIST BUT COULD NOT THAT --GET THAT TO GO.

FOUL ON THE SHOT.

OFFENSIVE ACTION THERE FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

THE BLOCK SCREEN.

NOW, THAT WAS A FOUL.

THE FOUL IS ON ZY SMART, HIS FIRST, JUST OFF THE BENCH, SO MJ QUARTERMAN, THE SENIOR, AT THE LINE SHOOTING TWO.

SEASON, 17.

ALLSTATE.

ANOTHER FOOTBALL PLAYER HERE FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

ALLSTATE FIRST-TEAM DEFENSIVE BACK AT McINTOSH ACADEMY.

I THINK THAT IS A STRENGTH, ESPECIALLY AT THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL, ALLOWING KIDS TO BE MULTISPORT PLAYERS.

WE SAW THAT LAST NIGHT.

THEY HAD NOT LOST A GAME WITH THEIR FOOTBALL TEAM.

THEY VERSE PLAYING FOOTBALL AND BASKETBALL IS A BIG-TIME PLUS.

4-0 LEAD NOW FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

NOW BACK OUT TO SMART FOR THREE.

ZY SMART.

THE SENIOR TRANSFER.

THE THING ABOUT SMART, HE WAS EARLY IN THE SEASON FOR 30 POINTS.

YOU CAN'T GIVE HIM ANY KIND OF OPEN OPPORTUNITIES TO KNOCK DOWN THE LONG THREE-POINTER.

IT IS BATTLE.

ONE-ON-ONE OVER HERE.

GREAT DEFENSE.

SHOT CLOCK UNDER FIVE.

AIRBALL.

BODIES HITTING THE FLOOR HERE AS IT IS GETTING A LITTLE CHIPPY BETWEEN THE TWO NUMBER FOUR S. JAYDEN ELLIS FOR McINTOSH AND JERMONTAE BROWN.

THESE GUYS HAVE BEEN CHIPPING AT EACH OTHER.

FIRST MEETING BACK IN JANUARY AND HERE THEY ARE AND MERCH.

SMART.

HIGH SCORE OFF THE BENCH, 11 POINTS PER GAME, AND HE HAS THE BALL AGAIN.

BROWN INSIDE.

AND, FOUL ON THE PLAY.

THIS WILL BE ON IRONS, NUMBER 23.

YES, GOT TO MOVE YOUR FEET IN THE THING ABOUT PLAYING DEFENSE ON THE BASELINE, IT'S OKAY DEFENSIVELY TO STEP OUT OF BOUNDS.

A LOT OF PLAYERS WANT TO TOW THE BASELINE BUT THE DEFENDER HAS THE RIGHT TO STEP OUT OF BOUNDS.

HE COMES OUT OF THE GAME, NUMBER 11, FORTUNE HICKS IS IN FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY.

FOUR -THREE-GAME, OPENING MINUTES OF THIS CLASS A DIVISION TWO MATCHUP.

BROWN LOST THE BALL.

TO WEST.

WEST WITH THE SHOT BOUNCES AWAY.

TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN.

JERMONTAE BROWN, NOW TO SMART.

MOST EVERYTHING ON THAT, REBOUND BY BATTLE BRINGS IT UP QUICKLY.

LONG THREE-POINT ATTEMPT, IN AND OUT.

WE TALKED ABOUT THE TRACK MEET.

WE ARE GOING UP AND DOWN THE COURT AND AGAIN, THEY ARE PLAYING COMFORTABLE BASKETBALL.

PEOPLE KNOW THE SHORT SHOT MAY NOT BE GOING IN BUT I LIKE THE TEMPO OF THE GAME.

JOYNER INTO THE HANDS OF SMART AND SAVANNAH HAS ITS FIRST PRE-POINTER OF THE GAME.

5-4.

BOTH TEAMS AGGRESSIVE.

BATTLE ON THE DRIVE, FOUL BEFORE THE SHOT.

TIME-OUT ON THE FLOOR HERE WITH 3:31 TO GO HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

ZY SMART, INSTANT OFFENSE HERE OFF THE BENCH.

FIVE POINTS FOR HIM, AND THE BLUE JACKETS OUT IN FRONT.

LIVE-ACTION HERE ON GPB.

COACH BROWN HAS 11 SENIORS.

HE LOVES HIS TEAM.

THE THING HE HAS TALKED ABOUT AS THEY HAVE ALLOWED HIM TO COACH THEM HIS WAY AND NOW THEY'RE HERE, GOT A CHANCE TO CUT DOWN [ INAUDIBLE ] AND HE'S A GREAT COACH.

FANTASTIC JOB.

A LOT OF SENIORS HAVE BEEN AROUND HIM FOR A LONG TIME.

GREAT CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN COACH AND PLAYERS, AND SOMETIMES THESE YOUNG MEN NEED THAT.

LONG THREE BALL BY ELLIS IS OFF THE MARK.

UNTIL THAT.

JOYNER SAYS HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW.

WE TALKED ABOUT HIM AGAIN.

REGIONS PLAYER OF THE YEAR.

LOVES TO SCORE IN TRANSITION.

SEVEN STRAIGHT POINTS NOW SCORED BY SAVANNA, DOUBLE PUMP THERE BY BATTLE.

THIS IS JOYNER AGAIN.

WHY NOT?

A LITTLE HEAT CHECK BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS A GREAT SHOT.

YES, BECAUSE HE STAYED IN RHYTHM.

GREAT STEAL THERE KNOCKED AWAY, JERMONTAE BROWN, AND HE WILL RESET HERE.

AGAIN WE TALK ABOUT THESE THINGS ARE COMPETITIVE BECAUSE THEY ARE COMPETITIVE COACHES OF TOLD HIM PLAY AT A HIGH TEMPO.

PLAY YOUR GAME.

THE DRIVE INSIDE.

JUMP BALL, ANOTHER ONE THAT WILL STAY WITH SAVANNA.

AND I WILL SAY THIS TO YOU, LARRY.

IF YOU WANT TO LOOK ON PAPER, IT IS THE THREE-POINT SHOT AND STRENGTH OF THESE SQUADS?

NO, AT THE SAME TIME IT IS THE SHOT THEY HAVE TO TAKE BECAUSE IT IS THE RHYTHM SHOT IN THE FLOW OF THE GAME.

THE GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME ROMON ANDERSON.

A LOT OF OFFENSE HERE COMING IN FROM THE RESERVES FOR THIS BLUE JACKETS TEAM.

McINTOSH ACADEMY TRYING TO FIND SOMETHING.

IT HAPPENS ON A COUPLE OF FREE THROWS.

BATTLE MISSES.

BATTLE ON THE GROUND BEFORE THE SHOT.

THEY MAY GET ANDERSON.

YES, ON ANDERSON.

THAT WAS CLOSE.

HE ALMOST WAS OVER THE BACK.

NEO WEST, NUMBER 1.

NOW TO BATTLE.

HICKS FOR THREE.

THE SHOTS ARE LOOKING GOOD.

THEY'RE NOT BAD SHOTS.

BOTH TEAMS.

FOX WITH THE REBOUND THERE.

THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD ON THIS LEAD.

SMART.

BATTLE FOR THE REBOUND IN THE HANDS OF WEST.

WEST GOING ALL THE WAY AND HE PUTS IT HOME.

HE IS TOUGH AND BASKETBALL.

HE IS TOUGH IN FOOTBALL BUT THAT TOUGHNESS GAVE HIM THE CONFIDENCE TO GET TO THE RIM.

THAT STEPPED ALMOST FIVE-MINUTE SCORING DROUGHT FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY.

AN HOUR SOUTH OF SAVANNAH.

STEAL BY CRAIG BATTLE UP AHEAD.

FOR ELLIS.

NO, REJECTED BY JOYNER.

BODIES ON THE FLOOR AND IT IS A JUMP BALL AND IT WILL STAY WITH McINTOSH ACADEMY.

HOW ABOUT THIS FAST-BREAK EFFORT HERE BY WEST, JUST OUT RUNNING THE DEFENSE.

WE TALKED HIM BEING THE FLOOR GENERAL OF THE FOOTBALL PLAYER, THE BASKETBALL PLAYER.

IT IS THE LEADERSHIP AND THAT TOUGHNESS PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY, YOU KNOW, IT IS SPARKING HIS TEAM TO PLAY WITH A LOT OF TENACITY.

JERMONTAE BROWN COMING OUT.

LAQUADRE HAYNES IS IN FOR SAVANNA.

ALSO, RICE IS IN FIRST SAVANNA.

CHECK THAT.

IT IS ANDERSON, JOYNER, SMART, AND CENTER ICE IN THE GAME FOR SAVANNA.

MEKHI JACKSON HAS CHECKED IN NOW FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY, FORTUNE HICKS, NUMBER 11.

BATTLE, NEO WEST IN THE GAME NOW FOR McINTOSH.

YOU HEARD ME TALK ABOUT THIS QUITE A BIT AND YOU WOULD SAY OKAY, BETWEEN BOTH SQUADS THEY ARE 0-8 FROM THE FREE POINT LINE.

THE WAY TO LOOK AT IT IS IT IS AN OFFENSIVE REBOUND OPPORTUNITY FOR EVERYONE ELSE ON THE COURT.

ALMOST LIKE A PASS.

IF YOU MISSED IT, REBOUND.

IF YOU MAKE IT 2 TO 3-POINT SHOT.

HICKS MAKES ONE OF 2 TO TIE THE GAME HERE AT 7-7.

CLASS A DIVISION TWO CHAMPIONSHIPS.

CHANCE HENDRICKS, NUMBER 2.

SAVANNA, THERE ARE NINE POINTS, SEVEN COMING OFF THE BENCH.

THIS IS FOR THE HIGH LOW.

SHONE RUTH IS BACK IN THE GAME.

JAYDEN ELLIS WITH THE REBOUND.

HICKS.

ALICE UP AND OFF THE GLASS AND IN.

JAYDEN ELLIS, THE SENIOR, GETS BACK ON THE BOARD.

THE THING ABOUT THAT PLAY, THE WIND SET THAT UP.

EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE ONE FOR 12 FROM THE FREE -- THREE-POINT LINE, IT SETS THE TEAM UP FOR A THREE-POINTER.

THAT WILL BE THE SECOND FOUL.

ON MAKI JOYNER.

HE COMES OUT OF THE GAME QUICKLY, ZY SMART GOING BACK IN TO REPLACE THEM.

NOW, TO HICKS.

BACK TO WEST.

10 ON THE SHOT CLOCK.

QUARTERMAN INSIDE.

BIG-TIME ATHLETIC PLAY FROM DAVIS OFFENSIVELY.

QUARTERMAN FOR THREE.

REBOUND TO BROWN.

BLUE JACKETS TOO THEN AFTER THE WHISTLE.

CONTINUATION?

YEAH.

FOUL IS ON JAYDEN ELLIS.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT.

THERE IS A BLOCK HERE BY DAVIS.

FIRST THREE STEPS IN TRANSITION HE GOT DOWN THE COURT QUICK, RECEIVED IT ON THE FLOOR AND FINISHED AT HIS HEIGHT.

GOOD PLAYERS MAKE PLAYS BACK TO BACK IN EVERY BASKETBALL GAME DEFENSIVELY AND OFFENSIVELY.

YOU REPORT YOUR BIG MAN FOR RUNNING THE FLOOR, RIGHT?

GETTING ALL THE WAY DOWN VERY QUICKLY.

HENDRIX ON THE THREE.

WEST NOW TO ELLIS.

DAVIS AVERAGES 14 REBOUNDS PER GAME FOR SAVANNA PULLS OUT THAT SHOT.

SMART FOR THREE.

THIS IS EVERYTHING.

REBOUND CHASED DOWN BY HENDRIX IN THE HANDS OF SMART.

WALK AWAY.

DEFENSE HERE BY THE BUCCANEERS.

YOU CAN FEEL THE ENERGY FROM THE CROWD.

ONE, A FOUL.

THE OTHER ONE CELEBRATING THE BLOCK.

CRAIG BATTLE, NICE SHOT.

THE BALL IS OUT OF BOUNDS.

IT WILL STAY WITH SHABANA.

SHONE RUTH HOLDING THE SIDE OF HIS FACE ON THE SIDE OF THE COURT.

HE MUST'VE GOT POKED IN THE EYE, THE FACE?

GREAT TEMPO OF THE GAME, THOUGH.

11-11.

YES, IT'S A REALLY GOOD BASKETBALL GAME.

AGAIN, THE FOURTH MEETING BETWEEN THESE TWO TEAMS, IF YOU ARE JUST JOINING US.

TRAVEL THERE.

JERMONTAE BROWN A LITTLE BIT OUT OF CONTROL.

YEAH.

FOURTH TURNOVER OF THE GAME FOR SAVANNA.

JAYDEN ELLIS WITH THE DRIBBLE.

FOR THREE.

AND, THE ANSWER BY JERMONTAE BROWN AS WE GO BACK AND FORTH HERE.

THAT IS WHAT I SAY ABOUT RHYTHM.

YOU DON'T TAKE AWAY THE RHYTHM FROM THESE YOUNG MEN.

LET THEM PLAY.

THE THREE, THE JUMPSHOT, EVENTUALLY THAT RHYTHM WILL COME.

NUMBER 5 GETTING THAT THREE FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY.

DRAKE WITH THE SHOT.

IT GOES UP AND AGAIN.

WOW, NICE SHOT.

LOOKED LIKE A TURNOVER.

YES.

BUCCANEERS BACK UP BY THREE.

NEARING THE HALFWAY POINT HERE IN THE SECOND QUARTER.!.

THAT IS A THREE-BALL.

INSIDE THE REBOUND, KNOCKED AWAY.

NEO WEST, THREE ON ONE.

GETS IT TO DRAKE, CAN'T QUITE HANDLE IT.

THE OPPOSITE THING PLAYERS CAN'T QUITE DO, TRADE OFF THE REBOUND.

THE YOUNG DEFENSIVE GUYS GOT THEIR HANDS ON IT TO RETURN IT.

BALL GOING BACK TO SAVANNA.

16-13, McINTOSH ACADEMY BACK ON TOP.

ROOF TO SMART.

THAT IS GOOD BASKETBALL.

THAT IS GOOD BASKETBALL.

SMART GETTING IT OUT.

DAVIS, AND HE IS FOULED, AND WE WILL HAVE A STOPPAGE ON THE FLOOR.

IT WILL BE DeSHAWN DAVIS SHOOTING FREE THROWS WHEN WE COME BACK.

3:37, WITH A THREE-POINT LEAD FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

BACK HERE IN MACON.

THE THREE-POINT SHOT OPENS UP OPENPLAY AND IT IS JUST BY THE PASSED.

EACH COACH, THEY ARE TELLING THEIR OFFENSIVE GUYS, THAT SHOT, THAT'S A PASS TO YOU, YOU MAKE IT.

THAT'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.

THAT IS A THREE-POINT LEAD.

IT'S A WIN-WIN OFFENSIVELY AND IT DOES NOT TAKE EITHER TEAM AWAY FROM THE RHYTHM.

THE FOUL IS ON MJ QUARTERMAN FOR 12.

THAT IS HIS FIRST.

THAT WILL SEND DeSHAWN DAVIS TO THE LINE.

THE 6'8" CENTER AVERAGES A DOUBLE DOUBLE 10 POINTS, 14 REBOUNDS PER GAME.

ALSO FOUR BLOCKS PER GAME.

THIS IS HIS FOURTH YEAR PLAYING ATHLETIC SPORTS.

HE WAS INTRODUCED AS A YOUNG MAN COMING UP SO NOT JUST BASKETBALL BUT THE WAY HE'S BEEN PLAYING SO HE IS YOUNG.

HIS BODY HAS GOT TO DEVELOP BUT I LIKE THE WAY HE'S PLAYING THIS AFTERNOON.

A LOT OF RAW TALENT.

STILL A THREE-POINT GAME.

BUCCANEERS ON TOP.

ALICE OFF TO HICKS NOW RUNNING THE POINTS.

MATCHUP.

TO THE HANDS OF BATTLE.

KNOCKED AWAY INTO THE HANDS OF QUARTER --QUARTERMAN.

THE REBOUND BROUGHT DOWN BY CHANCE HENDRIX FOR SAVANNA.

THERE IS A FOUL ON THE REBOUND.

THAT'S GOING TO BE ON DAVIS.

THAT IS THE FIRST BAD THREE-POINT ATTEMPT THAT IS HAPPENED DURING THIS FIRST HALF.

IT WAS A ONE PASS AND SHOOT.

IT WASN'T A RHYTHM SHOT SO INSTEAD OF BEING IN A POSITION FOR OFFENSE REBOUND ONE WAS OUT OF SYNC.

DAVIS, THAT IS HIS SECOND FOUL SO HE COMES OUT.

STAR LINEBACKER BY THE WAY FOR THE SAVANNA BLUE JACKETS FOOTBALL TEAM.

DRAKE CAN'T GET THAT TO GO.

REBOUND TO SAVANNA.

OFF AND RUNNING.

BROWN, NO, DRAKE, THE REBOUND.

INTO THE HANDS OF BATTLE.

STILL A THREE-POINT GAME.

SO THEN IT IS A THREE ZONE.

YES.

HICKS AVERAGES SEVEN POINTS A GAME.

MUCH-NEEDED BASKET THERE FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

FIVE-POINT LEAD NOW, THEIR BIGGEST OF THE GAME.

BROWN AGAIN.

HIGH ON THE JUMPER.

NO.

HICKS TIPS.

DOLLARS FOR THREE.

YES.

AND, THAT WAS A RHYTHM SHOT.

THAT IS A SHOT YOU WANT YOUR TOP PLAYERS TO TAKE.

ELLIS, 13 POINTS PER GAME.

THEY CALL HIM THE GO TO GUY.

THEY GET HIM THE BASKET IN TRANSITION.

GOOD BALANCE, GOOD FOLLOW-THROUGH.

MICE, GOOD-LOOKING SHOT.

DID NOT RUSH, SQUARED HIS SHOULDERS IN TRANSITION AND SAVANNA WITH AN EIGHT-POINT LEAD.

WE TALKED ABOUT SAVANNA'S SHOOTING, HOW THEY REALLY STRUGGLED THERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER, ONLY TWO OF 13 SHOOTING.

SINCE THEN THEY'VE BEEN OUTSTANDING.

5 OF 12 IN THIS QUARTER, INCLUDING 2 FOR 4 FROM TWO-POINT RANGE.

GREAT PLAY.

FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

BECAUSE, IT WAS A RHYTHM SHOT.

HE PRACTICED THAT EACH AND EVERY DAY.

TRANSITION THREE, RHYTHM SHOT.

McINTOSH ACADEMY NOW WITH THIS LARGEST LEAD, 21-13.

OFFENSIVE FOUL ON THE OTHER END.

STEPHON FOX CALLED FOR HIS FIRST FOUL.

THINGS BEGINNING TO GET OUT OF CONTROL FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

INSIDE FOR BATTLE.

SLIPS, BLOCKED BY FOX OUT OF BOUNDS.

STAY HERE WITH McINTOSH.

SEE HOW THE INTENSITY HAS TAKEN IT UP TO ANOTHER LEVEL.

GUYS ARE PLAYING VERY HARD ON THE OFFICIALS ARE LETTING THEM PLAY.

EMOTIONS HERE, TEAMS THAT KNOW EACH OTHER SO WELL.

LONG AND DOWN TO BATTLE.

CRAIG BATTLE, 6'3" SENIOR.

NEO WEST BACK IN THE GAME, THE 5'10" JUNIOR.

WE TALK ABOUT ALL THE ASSIST.

BACK TO MAN ON MAN.

THAT IS BETTER.

HICKS, NOW THE HANDOFF TO BATTLE.

FALLS OFF THE WAY.

INSTEAD THEY GET IT RIGHT BACK INTO THE HANDS OF ELLIS.

SPIN MOVE.

RUNNER.

SHORT.

FOULED BY HICKS ON THE OTHER END.

JUST THE THIRD FOUL OF THE QUARTER FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY.

YOU WATCH THAT WHAT IT TELLS ME IS BOTH TEAMS ARE NOT SLOWING DOWN FOR NOTHING.

IT IS NOT ABOUT TIME TO SCORE.

THEY HAVE BEEN IN ATTACK MODE FROM BEGINNING TO END.

BOTH TEAMS ARE DEEP.

WE'VE SEEN RESERVES COME IN AND MAKE AN IMPACT.

FIRST POINTS OF THE GAME FOR SAVANNA.

JAELYN BREAK COMES OFTEN HAS A THREE.

HERE IS RUTH FOR THREE.

LOCKED AWAY FROM QUARTERMAN OUT OF BOUNDS.

IT WILL STAY FOR SAVANNA.

AGAIN IT WAS NOT A RHYTHM SHOT.

IT WAS A PULL-UP.

OFFENSE IS NOT IN POSITION FOR THE REBOUND.

NOT THE KIND OF PLAY BLUE JACKETS ONE GOING INTO HALFTIME.

ANOTHER OFFENSIVE FOUL.

JOYNER CALLED FOR THE HOOK, AND THAT IS HIS THIRD FOUL.

THINK ABOUT THIS.

THINK ABOUT THE 16, 17-YEAR-OLD MAN.

THE LAST TIME THEY PLAYED THEY END UP WINNING THE GAME.

NOW, THERE DOWN BY EIGHT GOING INTO HALFTIME.

THEY MAY BE GETTING A LITTLE ANTSY STARTING TO GO ONE-ON-ONE FOR SURE.

JOYNER COMES OUT FOR THE FINAL SECONDS.

OFFENSIVE TALLY OTHER WAY.

NEO WEST WITH THE CHARGE.

IT IS HIS FIRST FOUL.

SUBSTITUTION COMING NOW.

ON THE SECOND BETWEEN THE SHOT CLOCK AND GAME CLOCK.

THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO GO FOR ONE AND GET THE BEST SCORING OPPORTUNITY.

JERMONTAE BROWN, NUMBER 3 BACK INTO THE GAME.

POSSESSION.

THE CONFIDENT POSSESSION.

WAS A LOOK NOW FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY.

FINAL SECONDS, CLASS A DIVISION 2 CHAMPIONSHIP HERE IN MACON.

BROWN, SMART, FIVE ON THE SHOT CLOCK.

BACK TO BROWN.

TO HARD OFF THE GLASS.

UP AND IN.

THAT IS WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT, OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS.

WHEN THE BALL IS MOVED, OFFENSE IS SMOOTH.

GOOD TIP IN THERE FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

THAT IS THE WAY IT ENDS, 21-15.

SAVANNA HAS THE LAST WORD, DOWN BY SIX AND THEY NEEDED THAT BASKET IN A BIG WAY.

OUR COACHES INTERVIEW PRESENTED BY BREDA PEST MANAGEMENT, OFFICIAL SPONSOR OF HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL.

LET'S GO TO JON NELSON.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I'M HERE WITH COACH MARQUICE JONES.

I KNOW THAT SECOND BASKET REALLY GOT ON YOU.

YEAH, THE SHOT CLOCK GOING DOWN WE TALKED ABOUT THAT BEFORE.

THE END OF THE SHOT CLOCK WE'VE GOT TO SECURE THE REBOUND.

WE CAN'T ALLOW THEM TO SCORE.

ON OFFENSIVE HAD A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT GUYS CONTRIBUTE, SIX DIFFERENT SCORES FOR YOU IN THE FIRST HALF AND AGAIN WHERE YOU KNOW YOUR OPPONENT AND KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE LIKE THIS.

YES, SIR.

I TOLD YOU BEFORE WITH OUR TEAM ANYBODY CAN SCORE.

AS LONG AS WE PLAY TOGETHER, STAY TOGETHER WE WILL COME OUT WITH A WIN.

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

McINTOSH ACADEMY IS UP BY SIX.

HALFTIME COMING UP RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER RIGHT HERE ON THE GREAT GPB.

STICK AND STAY.

WILL COME TO THE HALFTIME SHOW.

WE ARE LIVE FROM MACON COLISEUM.

WE ARE AT THE HALF OF THE SINGLE DIVISION TWO MATCH BETWEEN McINTOSH ACADEMY AND SAVANNA.

TO MY RIGHT IS McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY PRINCIPAL TODD WILLIS, THANKS SO MUCH FOR JOINING ME AND TO MY LEFT IS SAVANNA PRINCIPAL STACY POTTINGER.

WE WILL START WITH YOU.

THE SCORE IS IN YOUR FAVOR RIGHT NOW.

WHAT YOU SEE ON THE FIRST HALF?

TWO TEAMS THAT ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH EACH OTHER.

THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME WE HAVE PLAYED IN BOTH TEAMS ARE PLAYING GREAT DEFENSE.

THIS IS GOING TO COME DOWN TO THE END IN AN ABSOLUTE BARN-BURMA OF A CONTEST.

THIS IS OUR FOURTH TIME HAVING A MATCHUP THIS YEAR AND EACH TIME IT HAS COME DOWN TO THE FINAL FEW SECONDS SO WE ARE EXPECTING TO SEE THAT AGAIN TODAY.

YOUR TEAM IS WON 11 TITLES.

THE LAST WAS IN 1998.

WHAT WOULD IT MEAN TO YOU IN THE COMMUNITY TO BRING THIS TROPHY BACK HIM?

IT WOULD MEAN THE WORLD TO ME IN THE CITY TO BRING THIS TROPHY BACK HOME.

WE BROUGHT MULTIPLE FAN BUSES OUT TODAY.

THE COMMUNITY IS OUT.

WE ARE JUST HONORED TO BE HERE TO PLAY IN THE SAND REPRESENT OUR COMMUNITY.

FOR THE BUCCANEERS, TOTAL OPPOSITE.

THIS WILL BE YOUR FIRST STATE TITLE.

WHAT WOULD IT MEAN TO THE SEA OF RED OUT HERE?

IT WOULD BE AN INCREDIBLE A COMPLIMENT.

McA HAS NOT WON A STATE TITLE AND TO BRING THIS HOME WOULD BE BIG FOR THE SCHOOL, THE COMMUNITY, EVERYBODY INVOLVED AND IF YOU NOTICE APPEAR IN THE SEA OF RED, McINTOSH COUNTY IS JUST ABOUT EMPTY TODAY.

THEY ARE ALL HERE.

YES THEY ARE, AND UNDER SECOND YOUR HEAD COACH MARQUICE JONES.

WHAT DOES HE MEAN TO THE TEAM?

NO, EVERYTHING.

HIS LEADERSHIP --HE IS A GREAT COACH, A GREAT TEACHER, A GREAT MAN AND HE RAISES YOUNG MAN IN A WAY THAT THEY PLAY GOOD BASKETBALL --GREAT BASKETBALL, BUT ALSO HE TEACHES THEM ABOUT LIFE AND HE MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE.

WE KNOW YOUR BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM IS GREAT.

TELL ME WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON AT YOUR SCHOOL?

WE ARE VERY HONORED WE JUST MADE THE GOVERNOR'S AP ON A LIST AS WELL AS A LITERACY AWARD AND INCREASING OUR SCORES ACROSS ALL SUBJECT AREAS, SO WE ARE VERY PROUD IN THAT AS WELL AS OUR ATHLETES BEING RAISED SO THAT THEY ARE RAISED TO GO TO COLLEGE, NOT JUST TO PLAY IN HIGH SCHOOL, BUT THE PLAY BEYOND OR COMPETE ACADEMICALLY BE ON.

TODD, SAME QUESTION FOR YOU.

WHAT IS GOING ON AT YOUR SCHOOL ACADEMICALLY AND ATHLETICALLY?

WE ARE A SCHOOL ON THE RISE.

WE ARE ASCENDANT.

AS WE GET THE RIGHT PEOPLE IN PLACE.

WE TRY TO PUT GREAT PEOPLE IN FRONT OF GREAT KIDS TO SUCCEED BOTH IN THE CLASSROOM AND ON THE COURT AND FIELD.

LIKE MISS.

POTTINGER SAID, YOU KNOW, IT IS STUDENT-ATHLETE AND THEY ARE BEING PREPARED FOR THE NEXT LEVEL AS WE PUT KIDS IN COLLEGE, THE MILITARY, THE WORKFORCE AT A HIGH LEVEL.

TEAMS ARE ABOUT TO TAKE THE COURT, START WARMING UP.

WHAT ADJUSTMENTS DO YOU WANT TO SEE OUT OF YOUR TEAM IN THE SECOND HALF?

I THINK THEY NEED TO GET OUT OF THEIR HEAD AND THEY JUST NEED TO PLAY.

THEY NEED TO HAVE FUN AND THEY NEED TO PLAN I THINK THEY WILL BE ALL RIGHT.

QUICK ADVICE FOR THE BUCCANEERS?

JUST KEEP PLAYING HARD AND GO AT IT AND AS LONG AS WE ARE ONE POINT AHEAD AT THE END IT'S ALL GOOD.

THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE AND TAKING THE TIME PERIOD FOR YOU WATCHING, STICK AROUND.

AFTER THE HALF WE WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE MISSED AND WHAT IS TO COME HERE.

IT IS BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP TIME ON GPB.

WHEN SHE ENTERED HIGH SCHOOL KJ ALREADY HAD EIGHT OFFERS.

SHE IS JUST AN ANIMAL OUT THERE.

SHE JUST TURNS INTO THIS VICIOUS ANIMAL, ESPECIALLY WHEN SHE GETS MAD.

ARE YOU THE BEST PLAYER ON THE TEAM?

YES.

WHEN IT'S TIME TO PLAY I FEEL LIKE THE BALL SHOULD BE IN MY HANDS.

HALFTIME HERE IN MACON, McINTOSH ACADEMY CUP, 21-15 HERE AT HALFTIME.

LET'S GET BACK WITH JON NELSON, OUR COACHES INTERVIEW PRESENTED BY BREDA PEST MANAGEMENT.

I SHOWED YOU THE HALFTIME SHEET.

WHAT STUCK OUT IN YOUR MIND?

FOULS.

BUT WE STILL HAD ABOUT THE SAME AMOUNT OF SHOT ATTEMPTS.

WE'VE JUST GOT TO WEATHER THE STORM RIGHT HERE.

I THINK WE WILL BE ALL RIGHT IF WE COME OUT AND PLAY HARD IN THE SECOND AND THIRD QUARTER.

I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE LOOKING AT MAKI JOYNER BEEN HELD TO FIVE POINTS THERE.

HE WILL WEATHER THAT STORM, HE WILL BE ALL RIGHT.

WE ARE NOT WORRIED.

LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT 16.

APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.

AS ALWAYS, ARE INTERVIEW IS BROUGHT TO US BY BREDA PEST MANAGEMENT.

BOTH TEAMS SHOOTING UNDER 30% HERE IN THE FIRST HALF.

WHAT CHANGES DO YOU WANT TO SEE HERE IN THE SECOND HALF?

I DON'T THINK BOTH TEAMS ARE GREAT SHOOTING TEAMS.

THEY ARE GOOD SHOOTING TEAMS.

I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO SETTLE DOWN HERE MORE IN THE SECOND HALF AND YOU'LL SEE A BETTER BASKETBALL GAME BUT THEY'VE GOT TO STAY AGGRESSIVE.

IF THE SHOT IS THERE, TAKE IT.

GO GET THE OFFENSIVE REBOUND BUT THEN DEFEND, COME DOWN ON THE TURNOVERS AND CONTINUE TO BE IN ATTACK MODE AND I SAY THIS IN THE RIGHT WAY, HAVE FUN.

DON'T PUT PRESSURE ON YOURSELF.

NO ONE NEEDS TO BE A HERO.

HAVE FUN AND WE WILL HAVE A GOOD GAME IN THE SECOND HALF.

WE'VE ALREADY SEEN TWO AGAIN, A LOT OF THE SCORING OFF THE BENCH FOR BOTH TEAMS.

IN FACT, FOR SAVANNA, 9 OF THEIR 15 POINTS COMING OFF THE BENCH.

ONLY SIX POINTS FOR THEIR STARTERS.

JOYNER, BROWN, AND DAVIS WITH JUST ONE FIELD GOAL EACH AS THEIR STARTING THE SECOND HALF YOUR DOWN BY SIX.

THIS CLASS A DIVISION TWO CHAMPIONSHIP, McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY WITH THE LEAD.

WHEN I TALK ABOUT FUN I MEAN COMPETITIVE FUN.

YOU WANT TO COMPETE.

GOOD, CLEAN COMPETITION.

WHEEL ACTION.

THE SCREEN COMING.

NICE REJECTION BY HENDRIX.

THE SCREEN WAS THERE BUT IT WAS NOT SET.

THE ATHLETIC ABILITY THERE FROM HENDRICKS.

IRONS AT THE REBOUND.

INTO THE HANDS OF ALICE ON THE DRIVE.

HE IS FOULED AND THAT IS ON DAVIS.

THAT WILL BE HIS THIRD, AND IT IS TWO SHOTS.

THINK ABOUT WHAT I'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT SINCE THE FIRST HALF ABOUT SHOOTING A THREE, SHOOTING A THREE.

JUST BECAUSE IT IS A SHOT, YOU'VE GOT TO LOOK AT THE SHOOTING PERCENTAGE.

YOU DON'T HALF TO CONTEST.

STAY ON THE GROUND.

DAVIS, HIS THIRD FOUL.

HE WILL COME OUT.

A PART OF THE BLUE JACKETS.

THEY NEED HIM ON THE FLOOR TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

YES, STEPHON FOX REPLACING HIM.

ALICE GETS ONE MORE.

HE MAKES 1 OF 2.

BACK TO A SEVEN-POINT LEAD NOW FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY, FORMERLY KNOWN AS DARIEN HIGH SCHOOL IN THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP HERE.

GREAT BALL MOVEMENT.

BROWN FOULED ON THE SHOT ATTEMPT.

I APPLAUD THAT TO COACH BROWN.

I'M SURE HE COMMUNICATED WE DON'T NEED TO [ INAUDIBLE ] SHOT, MAKE MOVE.

ONCE THE DEFENSE SHIFTS, PENETRATE AND NOW YOU GOT BROWN AT THE FREE THROW LINE.

JAYDEN ELLIS CALLED FOR HIS THIRD FOUL AND THAT BRINGS ECHO EIGHT.

MISS.

ON THE FIRST.

SAVANNA HAS YET TO HAD A FREE THROW HERE IN THE GAME.

0 FOR 4.

McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY COMING BACK THE OTHER WAY.

IT HITS.

THEY CALL HIM MR. CONFIDENCE AND THAT IS THE WAY HE PLAYS.

GOOD ZIP IN FRONT ACROSS THE TOP OF THE DEFENSE.

LONG THREE, BALL KNOCKED AWAY THERE BY ELLIS.

WILL STAY WITH THE BLUE JACKETS.

WE TALKED ABOUT THESE TWO TEAMS MEETING FOR THE FOURTH TIME AND BACK IN JANUARY 7th.

McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY WON THAT ONE.

SAVANNA WON TWO OTHER GAMES IN FEBRUARY AT SAVANNAH HIGH SCHOOL.

FOURTH GAME NOW TRYING TO TAKE HOME THE TITLE.

HENDRICKS WITH THE DRIVE.

NO, THAT IS IRONS ON THE REBOUND.

SLOPPY PASS THERE ON THE BREAK.

NEO WEST TRYING TO CORRAL IT.

IT GOES THE WAY OF JERMONTAE BROWN.

YOU'VE GOT TO WANT THE BASKETBALL DEFENSIVELY.

THE LOOSE BALL IS VERY IMPORTANT.

THAT LAST OFFENSIVE POSSESSION FOR SAVANNA WAS VERY QUESTIONABLE BECAUSE THERE WAS A LOT OF BALL MOVEMENT.

ISOLATION, BASKETBALL.

WHEN THEY MOVED TO MAKE THE DEFENSE SHIFT YOU'VE GOT A BETTER BASKET, BETTER SHOT.

QUARTERMAN CALLED FOR HIS SECOND FOUL.

ZY SMART CAN'T GET THAT TO GO.

REBOUND FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

HIGH OFF THE GLASS AND IT WON'T GO.

GETS THE REBOUND BACK STOLEN AWAY BY ZY SMART.

KNOCKED AWAY, PICKED UP BY FOX.

AND, THE BLUE JACKETS CAPITALIZE.

OFF THE FOOT.

COACH SMITH ALWAYS USED TO SAY THIS.

BE QUICK BUT DON'T HURL IT.

QUICK BASKETBALL GETS YOU IN TROUBLE.

HELTER-SKELTER BASKETBALL MY FATHER USED TO CALL IT.

SOMETIMES YOU GOT TO SLOW DOWN, LET THE BALL MAKE THE PASSED, BE FASTER THAN THE DRIBBLE.

JERMONTAE BROWN THERE ON THE TURNOVER, BOUNCING OFF HIS FOOT.

NEO WEST, NUMBER 1 FOR THE BUCCANEERS, WORKING ON SMART.

IT'S GOOD.

DOUBLE DIGIT LEAD NOW FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

MENTAL TOUGHNESS.

THE FOUL ON THE OTHER END.

THAT IS BATTLE BEING CALLED FOR TO REACH IN.

MR. LEADER ON THE COURT.

CRAIG BATTLE, HIS FIRST FOUL WILL SEND JERMONTAE BROWN TO THE LINE WITH TWO MORE FREE THROWS.

AND THAT ONE, HE GETS TO GO.

TRYING TO GENERATE SOME SCORES OFF THEIR DEFENSE, THE BLUE JACKETS.

VERY IMPRESSED WITH HOW McINTOSH ACADEMY IS PLAYING THIS AFTERNOON.

M, GETS THAT ONE TO ROLL IN.

McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY PLAYED BACK DOWN TO NINE.

ELLIS GIVES OFF TO WEST IN THE BACKCOURT.

THERE IS THE WHEEL ACTION.

SCREEN COMING.

WEST INSIDE.

QUARTERMAN UP IN.

GOOD PATIENCE OFFENSIVELY FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

WAS TRYING TO GET THAT TO QUARTERMAN AS HE WAS FALLING DOWN.

HIS ATTEMPT RONCO.

TO JOIN OUR, OFF TO THE RACES.

COACH BROWN ONCE A SHOOTING FOUL.

I DON'T THINK HE'S GOING TO GET IT.

THEY ARE CALLING THE FOUL ON BATTLE.

THAT IS HIS SECOND.

THEY WILL GET A SHOOTING FOUL, SO MAKI JOYNER GOING TO THE LINE TO SHOOT TWO.

SECOND FOUL ON BATTLE.

HE'S GOT TO STEP UP.

TWO POINTS, TWO FOULS, TWO REBOUNDS.

WHEN YOU REACH PLAYER OF THE YEAR A LOT IS EXPECTED OF HIM.

YOU ARE RIGHT.

HE IS A LEADER IN THIS TEAM, KEEP WHITE -- KEITH PART OF THIS TEAM.

NEED MORE OUT OF HIM THAN THAT.

DeSHAWN DAVIS COMES BACK INTO THE GAME.

IT DEPENDS ON WHAT TYPE OF DEFENSE IS RUN HERE.

IF THIS IS A 2-3 ZONE.

IF YOU PROTECT THEM INSIDE THE PAINT YOU HAVE A 2-3 ZONE.

BACK TO A NINE-POINT GAME.

STAY WITH THE MAN TO MAN.

BATTLE FINDS THE SAME TO THE BASKET AND END.

NO MATTER ON DEFENSE THERE IS A LOT OF COACHES CALLED.

YOU CAN PLAY AT THE ANGLE.

YOU CAN'T PLAY ON THE WING.

JOYNER UP AND FOULED.

I HATE TO SAY IT LIKE THIS IS A COACH MYSELF.

I HATE WHEN PLAYERS CLOSE OUT OF THE ANGLE ON THE WING BECAUSE YOU AUTOMATICALLY OPEN UP THE GAME FOR THE PENETRATION.

CLOSEOUT FLAT, MAKE SURE THE DEFENSE STAYS IN FRONT OF YOU AND FORCE A PERIMETER SHOT.

THIRD FOUL ON NUMBER 23, OF THE 12.

JOYNER ROLLS IN ANOTHER, SO SAVANNA NOT GETTING ANYTHING GOING FROM THE FIELD BUT STAYING IN THE GAME AT THE FREE THROW LINE.

MENTIONED EARLIER SECOND CHAMPIONSHIP GAME OF THE DAY.

WE HAVE FOUR TITLE TILTS LEFT.

25A CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES, GIRLS AND BOYS.

SECOND ONE SHORT.

THIS IS WHEN YOU CAN'T BE A HERO DEFENSIVELY IF YOU ARE JOYNER.

HE MISSED THE FREE THROW.

PRESSURE CONTAINMENT TO STAY IN FRONT OF THE OFFENSE.

BATTLE FOR THREE.

OH, JUST SHORT.

GREAT REBOUND BROUGHT DOWN BY HENDRICKS.

FANTASTIC REBOUND AND THIS IS WHERE YOU ARE UNDER CONTROL.

DON'T FORCE IT.

NEO WEST CALLING FOR THE FOUL.

AND, WE WILL TAKE A TIME-OUT HERE ON THE COURT.

3:46 TO GO HERE IN THE THIRD QUARTER AND ONE MORE LOOK AT THIS.

NEO WEST GETTING IN THE WAY.

JOYNER TRYING TO GET HIS TEAM BACK TO THE GAME.

WE ARE BACK LIVE HERE IN MACON.

WE TALKED ABOUT THE FOULS GOING TO THE BREAK RIGHT THERE.

A LITTLE BIT OF FOUL TROUBLE FOR BOTH TEAMS.

EACH HAS TWO PLAYERS RIGHT NOW WITH THREE FOULS, SO WE TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.

YOU CAN SEE ELLIS AND IRONS WITH THREE FOULS EACH FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

JOYNER AND DAVIS WITH THREE EACH FOR SAVANNA AND ALL FOUR OF THOSE PLAYERS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THEIR RESPECTIVE TEAMS.

VERY VALUABLE.

McINTOSH, ONE OF THE REASONS WHY THEY ARE UP BY 10 POINTS IN THE SECOND HALF, THEY ARE MAKING MORE FREE THROWS THEN SAVANNA IS ATTEMPTING.

THAT IS NOT A FORMULA FOR SUCCESS IF YOU ARE SAVANNA.

YOU'VE GOT TO GET TO THE FREE THROW LINE AND YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE IT.

BEFORE THE TIME-OUT, THE FIRST OF TWO FREE THROWS AND TO YOUR POINT, SAVANNA GET TO SCORE A FIELD GOAL HERE IN THE SECOND HALF.

THIS IS BIG.

WHEN YOU KEEP THE CLOCK STOPPED IN YOUR TOP PLAYER IS NOW STARTING TO GET SOME RHYTHM FROM THE FREE THROW LINE, A GOOD SIGN FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

POINTS ARE POINTS.

THREE STRAIGHT FIELD GOALS NOW BY JOYNER.

HE HAS FIVE POINTS IN THE HALF OVERALL FOR SAVANNA.,, THEY ARE GOING TO ROLL IT SAVANNA BALL.

WE LOOK AT THE PHYSICALITY OF THE GAME.

RIGHT FOOT WAS OUT OF BOUNDS.

SMART PLAY THERE.

SEE WHAT KIND OF MOVEMENT SAVANNA HOUSE.

PASS, CUT LOOSE.

ZY SMART KNOCKED AWAY.

TOO QUICK OF ACTION TOO EARLY FOR THE OFFENSE.

ELLIS GETS IT TO WESTON THEY WILL RESET.

STILL UP BY EIGHT.

LIKE THE PATIENT'S HERE FROM McINTOSH ACADEMY.

BUCCANEERS HAVE LED ALMOST THE ENTIRE GAME.

INSIDE TO BATTLE.

C, DAVIS COULD NOT DO ANYTHING.

HE COULD NOT CONTEST OR DEFEND.

JOYNER WITH THE REVERSE ON THE OTHER END.

HE HAS COME ALIVE WITH SEVEN POINTS IN THE QUARTER.

AND, THEY WILL GET HENDRICKS ON THE FOUL.

WATCH THIS GREAT PLAY HERE AND JOYNER SO FAST ON THE COURT.

NICE MOVE AND FINISHING WITH HIS LEFT.

I'M SURE HE HEARD HIS COACHES AT HALFTIME.

STEPPED TO THE PLATE.

EIGHT-POINT GAME.

TWO AND 54 LEFT IN THE THIRD.

IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE THE MAN THIS IS THE TIME TO DO IT.

ZY SMART SITTING DOWN FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

BIG-TIME REBOUND.

YOU, SAVANNA, JOYNER.

PASS THE BALL.

PASS IT.

HENDRICKS UP --NO.

REBOUND ON THE GROUND.

I LIKE THE MENTALITY OF JOYNER TRYING TO TAKE OVER ONE ON ONE BUT SOMETIMES IT'S NOT THE FIRST PASSOVER THE SECOND PASS.

IF HE GIVES THE BALL UP, ALLOWS THE DEFENSE TO MOVE.

ONCE HE GETS TO THE WEAK SIDE HE'S ABLE TO CAPITALIZE.

HE'S TRYING TO SCORE TOO EARLY IN THE POSSESSION.

POSSESSION ARROW STAYING WITH SAVANNA.

JERMONTAE BROWN FOR THREE.

SHOT FROM THE STREET, BIG TIME PLAY OFFENSIVELY FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

GREAT PLAY ON US THE OUT OF BOUNDS PLAY.

THE LEAD IS NOW DOWN TO FIVE.

REJECTION BY DAVIS.

LET ME TELL YOU THIS, THAT WAS A BACKDOOR TOUCH SET UP OFFENSIVELY BECAUSE THE BLUE JACKETS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO ATTACK THE BIG MAN DAVIS DOWN LOW.

IT IS HIS FOURTH FOUL AND THAT IS TOUGH.

THE ENFORCER INSIDE DOES SO MUCH.

10 POINTS, 14 REBOUNDS, FOUR BLOCKS PER GAME IS WHAT HE AVERAGES.

YOU GET CAUGHT UP IN THE MOTION OF THE GAME.

YOU WANT TO MAKE A BIG TIME PLAY.

YOU'RE GOING TO GAMBLE FOR THE STEAL BUT WHAT HAPPENS IS IF THE OFFENSE THINKS IT'S A LITTLE BIT SMARTER.

IT'S NOT BEING FAST BUT BEING SMART AND QUICK, NOW DAVIS HAS FOUR FOULS.

THIS IS THE FIRST FREE THROW AND DAVIS GOES OUT.

FOX BACK IN FOR SAVANNA.

2: 02 TO GO HERE IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY LEADING ALMOST THE ENTIRE WAY.

THEY ARE DOWN 9-7 IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

THAT IS BEEN IT.

OTHERWISE IT HAS BEEN ALL BUCCANEERS.

THE PATIENT OFFENSIVELY.

IT IS NOT A RUSH.

HENDRICKS AGAIN.

BACK TO BACK THREES FOR HENDRICKS.

MR. HIGH IQ.

ELLIS IN THE CHALLENGE.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE'VE GOT A BALL GAME.

THEY ARE ATTACKING THE RIM, SHOOTING THREES.

JOYNER MOVING TOO QUICK.

BALL OFF HIS LEG OUT OF BOUNDS.

ONE MORE LOOK HERE AT McINTOSH COUNTY.

IT'S A STRONG PLAY BY ELLIS, THE GO TO GUY.

ELLIS, 13 POINTS PER GAME ON THE SEASON.

NICE DEFENSE BY JOYNER.

TWO ON TWO.

KNOCKED AWAY.

GREAT JOB THERE BY ALSO ONE, WHO KNOCKED THE BALL OUT OF BOUNDS TRYING TO GET IT IN THE HANDS OF FOX.

GOOD STEAL BY JOYNER.

GOOD DEFENSE.

SOMETIMES IN TRANSITION PASS IT UP, TRUST YOUR TEAMMATES.

DON'T TRY TO TAKE IT ONE-ON-ONE ESPECIALLY IF YOU'VE STILL GOT A MINUTE AND CHANGE IN THE THIRD.

FAVORING HIS LEFT HAND.

AND THAT IS HENDRICKS, THEY SAY HE STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS.

ON THE SIDELINE.

THE TURNOVER NOW FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

WATCH NUMBER 1, MAKI JOYNER, KIND OF FAVORING HIS LEFT LEG.

ONE MINUTE TO GO IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY TRYING TO KNOCK OFF THE RIVAL FOR THE SECOND TIME THIS SEASON.

YOU ARE SEEING NOW THE TWO SLASHERS FROM BOTH TEAMS, JOYNER AND BATTLE, WORKING TO IMPOSE THEIR WILL ON THIS TEAM.

THE FOUL IS ON RISK.

THAT IS NOW HIS THIRD FOUL FOR SAVANNA.

YOU'VE GOT A COACHES DECISION.

30 SECONDS TO GO IN THE THIRD, YOUR TOP PLAYER WAS STARTING TO HEAT UP, HAS FOUR FOULS.

MIGHT NOT BE A BAD TIME TO TAKE HIM OUT, GIVE HIM SOME REST.

AND SO THAT YOU ARE GOING INTO THE FOURTH WITH A MORE RESTED PLAYER VERSUS A FATIGUED PLAYER.

CHANCE HENDRICKS, THE THIRD FOUL.

ZY SMART IN THE LINEUP FOR SAVANNA, AND A TIME-OUT FROM McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

AS BATTLE MAKES THE SECOND 1 OF 2 AT THE LINE.

YOU'VE GOT THE MEDIA TIME-OUT COMING UP GOING INTO THE FOURTH QUARTER.

PROBABLY ONE OF THE REASONS IS TO GIVE HIS TEAM A BREAK AND NOT LOSE HIS SIX-POINT LEAD GOING INTO THE FOURTH.

THE SIX-POINT LEAD, THE THREE-POINT BACK -- LEAD IF THEY DO HOLD THE SHOT.

36-30, OUR SCORE.

WHAT DELAY OF GAME COACHING IS STARTED TO OCCUR NOT EVEN IN THE FOURTH YET.

IRONS GOING IN FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

AN AVERAGE OF 22 POINTS PER GAME, THEY HAVE BEEN DOWN FOR MOST OF THIS GAME.

TURNER HAS THREE.

THEY ARE IN POINT POSSESSION FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

SHONE RUTH INITIATING THE OFFENSE.

20 ON THE SHOT CLOCK, STILL HAS TIME.

GETS IT TO BROWN.

CONCISE MARGINS THERE FOR THE FOLLOW.

THAT WAS A GOOD OFFENSIVE REBOUND.

AGAIN, TALK ABOUT IT EARLIER WHEN THE SHOT IS MADE, TAKE IT IN RHYTHM.

THE OFFENSIVE REBOUND IS THERE.

DEFENSIVELY, JOYNER DID NOT GET THE FOUL.

EVEN IF YOUR GUY GETS IT BACK UP, TWO POINTS.

ELLIS, NOW THE BALL.

FIVE SECONDS ON THE CLOCK.

WEST CHECK IN THE CLOCK.

LONG THREE FOR WEST.

OFF THE FRONT.

IRONS.

OH, MY GOODNESS.

WHAT A QUARTER FOR BOTH OF THESE TEAMS.

SAVANNA RALLYING BACK FROM A DOUBLE TO CLOSE WITHIN FOUR.

THE BLUE JACKETS, DID THEY SAVE THEIR BEST THING FOR LAST?

FOURTH QUARTER IS NEXT.

BACK HERE LIFE IS ABOUT TO START THE FOURTH QUARTER, McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY WITH A FOUR-POINT LEAD RIGHT NOW.

WE TALKED ABOUT MAKI JOYNER HAVING SOME ISSUES WITH THE LEFT SIDE OF HIS BACK.

YEAH, I THINK HE TOOK A TUMBLE OR SOMETHING THAT HAS HIM IN PAIN.

HE'S VERY VALUABLE TO THIS TEAM.

SEVEN POINTS IN THE THIRD, NINE POINTS FOR THE GAME BUT HIS PRESENCE ON THE COURT IS VERY MUCH NEEDED.

YOU'VE GOT TO WATCH HIM.

MIGHT WANT TO GIVE HIM SOME REST HERE DOWN THE STRETCH.

STILL IN THE GAME NOW.

NINE-POINT, LEADING SCORER FOR SAVANNA AS THEY CLOSE THE GAP DOWN THE FOURTH HERE TO BEGIN THE FOURTH.

THERE IS THAT WE'LL ACTION AGAIN.

QUARTERMAN WITH THE SPIN MOVE UP AND IN.

MJ QUARTERMAN.

AND, IT FINISHES THE SAME WAY WITH QUARTERMAN WITH A PLAY-UP FOR THE NEXT EASY JUMPSHOT IN THE PAINT.

JOYNER ON THE DRIVE LASTED ON THE WAY UP, STOLEN AWAY.

RUTH.

HE GETS FOULED.

AND THAT WILL BE ON BATTLE.

THE FOURTH QUARTER IS ABOUT HEART AND HUSTLE.

THAT WAS A HUSTLE PLAY.

YES, SO BATTLE HAS THREE FOULS AND NOW RUTH TO THE LINE.

NOW HOW DO THEY RESPOND DEFENSIVELY, TALK ABOUT THE BLUE JACKETS.

BECAUSE THIS NEXT POSSESSION IS VERY IMPORTANT.

NUMBER ONE, YOU HAVE DAVIS.

IT IS DAVIS BACK IN THE GAME?

NO, NOT YET.

BATTLE REBOUNDS WITH 1 OF 2.

BACK TOO QUICK, AND FOULS THAT UP.

DON'T GAMBLE.

CALL THAT FOUL ON RUTH FOR SAVANNA.

THAT IS HIS FIRST.

BALL OUT OF BOUNDS NOW FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

AND, IT IS JUST A FIVE-POINT GAME.

DON'T EXIT YOUR ENERGY TRYING TO PRESS.

PLAY SOLID DEFENSE WHEN THE SHOT CLOCK IS IN YOUR FAVOR.

PLAY SOLID DEFENSE.

BATTLE IS ON AGAIN TO WEST.

JERMONTAE BROWN, JUST A BUNDLE OF ENERGY, NUMBER 3 AND WHITE.

BATTLE ET CETERA THREE.

INSTEAD STOPS FROM 15.

NO, HENDRICKS.

JERMONTAE BROWN WITH THE PUSH GOES IN THE LANE.

NO, THAT WAS TIPPED ON THE WAY OUT BY HICKS.

GOOD SEQUENCE DEFENSIVELY BY THE BUCCANEERS.

HICKS FOR THREE.

SHORT.

BODIES FLYING AND THEY ARE GOING TO FALL --CALL A FOUL ON HENDRICKS.

AND I SAY THIS.

EVERY HIGH SCHOOL PLAYER, YOU DO NOT WANT TO PLAY HERO BASKETBALL RIGHT NOW AND THAT IS WHAT IS HAPPENING TO SAVANNA.

NOW, THEY COMING DOWN SHOOTING ILL-ADVISED SHOTS INSTEAD OF HAVING A GOOD OFFENSE OF POSSESSION.

A BAD SHOT IS LIKE A TURNOVER.

JERMONTAE BROWN COMING OUT.

DeSHAWN DAVIS COMING BACK IN WITH THREE FOULS.

QUARTERMAN, HIS LENGTH AND STRENGTH, HE IS PLAYING A REALLY GOOD GAME.

BACK TO BACK JUMPERS IN THE FOURTH QUARTER HERE.

JOYNER.

HE IS IN PAIN.

BUT, HE IS GOING TO FIGHT THROUGH.

SHOWS HIS TOUGHNESS.

AND, A BASKET ON THE OTHER END.

HICKS FOR THREE.

THE TEMPO IS REALLY GOOD.

FOR McINTOSH.

DEFENDING, SHOOTING THREES, PLAYING SOLID DEFENSE AND SLOWING DOWN THE BLUE JACKETS IN THE HALF COURT.

TIME-OUT ON THE COURT.

12 TURNOVERS NOW FOR SAVANNA.

JOYNER, HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW?

11 POINTS IN THE GAME, BUT SAVANNA STILL TRAILING.

THE PLATFORM IS A VERY DIFFICULT EVENT.

WHEN YOU DIVE OFF THE TOP PLATFORM YOU ARE SAID TO BE GOING 30 MILES AN HOUR AND IT'S LIKE HITTING CONCRETE WHEN YOU HIT SO IT HAS TO BE VERY RESIZE, VERY TIGHT AND VERY STRONG WHEN YOU HIT THE WATER.

MY GYMNASTICS BACKGROUND HAS HELPED A LOT WITH LEARNING HOW TO USE THE PLATFORM TO MY ADVANTAGE.

I GOT TO THE SPORT VERY LATE CONSIDERING HOW LONG EVERYONE ELSE HAS BEEN DOING IT LIKE THE BEST THING ABOUT THE SPORT IS BEING ON TOP OF THE PODIUM AND I KIND OF DID IT A FEW TIMES AND SO IT IS A REALLY GOOD FEELING.

BACK LIVE HERE WE ARE IN THE FOURTH QUARTER NOW.

SAVANNA DOWN BY EIGHT AND ALMOST TOO URGENT.

TOO QUICK.

THIS GAME IS ABOUT PATIENTS OFFENSIVELY, AND DEFENSE OF REBOUNDS.

I THINK BOTH TEAMS, ESPECIALLY SAVANNA, THEY ARE TRYING TO GET IT BACK VERY QUICK.

SLOW DOWN AND TAKE YOUR TIME.

McINTOSH ON THE OTHER HAND HAVE A SOLID GAME TAKING THE TIME OFFENSIVELY.

WHEN THE DEFENSE OPENS UP IT GIVES THEM A CHANCE DOWN LOW.

3 OF 5 SHOOTING HERE IN THE OPENING MINUTES OF THE FOURTH FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

UP AND IN.

EVERY SINGLE TIME, PATIENT BASKETBALL.

BLOCK TO BLOCK SCREEN AND YOU ARE GETTING IT TO YOUR TOP PLAYER IN QUARTERMAN SO HE CAN FINISH WITH AN EASY TWO.

LOCKED OUT OF BOUNDS.

AND WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE BLUE JACKETS, THEY ARE DOING TOO MUCH.

ON THE BLOCK SCREEN FINISHING DOWN LOW, GREAT OFFENSIVE CALL THERE BY COACH JONES AND HIS STAFF.

QUARTERMAN, ONE OF THE PLAYERS WE FOCUSED ON IN THE PREGAME HUB JUST ONE FIELD GOAL IN THE GAME BEFORE THIS QUARTER, THREE HERE IN THIS PERIOD ALREADY.

PASSING AND MOVE, PASSING AND MOVE.

THE BEST THREE PLAYERS OFF AND RUNNING.

ELLIS UP WITH THE ONE-HANDED.

CALLED THE TIME-OUT, COACH.

12-POINT LEAD.

A BAD SHOT IS JUST LIKE A TURNOVER.

DAVIS IS FOULED BY QUARTERMAN.

WATCH THIS AGAIN, JOYNER TRYING TO DO TOO MUCH TO STEAL.

THREE DEFENDERS.

YES, AND THAT HURTS THE CONTENT, THE CHARACTER OF THE TEAM.

WHAT I MEAN BY THAT IS YOU HAVE FIVE GUYS OUT HERE.

GET YOUR TEAMMATES INVOLVED.

MOVE, PASS, CUT, BE EFFECTIVE, BE AGGRESSIVE AND YOU GET THE BALL BACK IN TRANSITION.

ANDERSON OUT OF THE GAME.

HENDRICKS BACK IN.

BROWN BACK IN.

THREE BALL FROM HIM.

REBOUND BY ELLIS TO WEST.

IT IS WHAT IS HAPPENING.

JOYNER IS SHOOTING IT, I'M GOING TO SHE WOULD SO EVERYONE WANTS TO BE THE HERO INSTEAD OF PLAYING TEAM BALL, PLAYING UNIFIED INSTEAD OF INDIVIDUAL BASKETBALL.

GOOD-LOOKING SHOT.

CANNOT GET IT TO GO.

I LIKE THAT NONE OPPOSED TO THE HIGH POST BUT IT JUMPS UP QUARTERMAN THERE.

GOOD DRIVE THEREBY HENDRICKS, KNOCKED TO THE GROUND THERE BY QUARTERMAN AND THAT IS HIS FOURTH FOUL FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

QUARTERMAN AGAIN HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING.

WE TALKED ABOUT FOUR POINTS IN THE GAME AND COMING ALIVE BIG.

WITH THREE BIG BUCKETS HERE IN THE FOURTH QUARTER, HENDRICKS SHOOTING TWO.

GOOD SUBSTITUTION.

MJ QUARTERMAN OUT OF THE GAME.

HE'S HAVING A GOOD AFTERNOON.

LEADING REBOUNDER FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

23, DERRICK IRONS BACK IN THE GAME.

NOW IT IS ABOUT PATIENTS.

McINTOSH, THE BUCCANEERS, IT IS ABOUT PATIENTS TRYING TO FORCE THE TURNOVER.

TRYING TO GET IT INSIDE FOR IRONS.

GREAT CHANGE OF DEFENSE THERE BY COACH BROWN AND HIS STAFF.

INSTEAD OF PLAYING MAN-TO-MAN LET'S TRY THE HALF WAS OWN.

GREAT CHANGE IN PACE DEFENSIVELY.

11th TURNOVER OF THE GAME FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO RUSH.

MOVE THE BALL.

JOYNER FOR A LONG THREE.

THAT IS OFF.

SMART CAN'T GET IT.

BATTLE TO ELLIS AND NO, BUT HE IS FOULED.

THAT FOUL IS ON JOYNER.

THAT IS HIS FOURTH, SO ALREADY WE HAVE GOT DAVIS BACK ON THE BENCH WITH FOUR FOULS AND JOYNER WITH FOUR FOULS.

THAT WAS THE SECRET OF TRYING TO PUT THE TEAM ON YOUR BACK TALKING ABOUT JOYNER NOT IN A NEGATIVE WAY BECAUSE HE MISSED THE THREE INSTEAD OF TRYING TO GET BACK TO THE DEFENSE HE WAS STUCK WITH A MIX --MISSED SHOT.

McINTOSH GETS THE REBOUND, BRINGS UP A FOUL.

TIME-OUT FOR SAVANNA.

3:52.

HE WANTS TO HAVE A CONVERSATION NOW WITH HIS GUYS SO AGAIN, YOU'VE GOT TWO OF YOUR STAR PLAYERS IN FOUL TROUBLE DOWN BY 10.

GOOD PUSH THERE IN THE THIRD QUARTER BUT THIS FOURTH QUARTER BELONGS TO THE BUCCANEERS.

THE PUSH WAS GREAT BECAUSE IT WAS A TEAM PUSHED THE INDIVIDUAL PUSH.

THE BALL WAS MOVING IN THE BLUE JACKETS WERE LOOKING GOOD THEN THEY GOT COCKY TO A POINT.

IT CAME ONE-ON-ONE BASKETBALL.

FAST SHOTS, TURNOVERS, McINTOSH TOOK ADVANTAGE OF IT.

NOW THEY HAVE A 10-POINT LEAD.

JOYNER WITH FOUR FOULS.

HENDRICKS ALSO.

DAVIS WITH FOUR.

PUTTING DAVIS BACK IN THE GAME WITH FOUR FOULS, NUMBER 10.

JERMONTAE BROWN STILL IN THE GAME, MAKI JOYNER STILL IN THE GAME.

HENDRICKS IN THE GAME, AS WELL, NUMBER TWO WITH FOUR FOULS, ALONG WITH ZY SMART.

SECOND FREE THROW NOW FOR ELLIS.

HE HAS BEEN SOLID ALL AFTERNOON LONG.

11-POINT DEFICIT NOW FOR THE BLUE JACKETS UNDER FOUR MINUTES.

JOYNER YES AND THE FOUL.

THAT IS GOOD BASKETBALL.

GREAT BASKETBALL.

SLIP THE SCREEN.

LOOKING TO TAKE AWAY THE WIDE-OPEN JUMP.

THAT IS THE WAY YOU PLAY THE GAME.

LET IT COME TO YOU.

NICE, STRONG FINISH.

FOURTH FOUL ON CRAIG BATTLE FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

14 POINTS NOW ON THE GAME FOR JOYNER.

HE PLAYED SAVANNA IN SCORING.

BALL LOOSE.

HICKS UP.

IRONS RIGHT BACK UP, AND THE FOUL AND MAYBE THE FIFTH ON DAVIS.

IF SO, HE IS OUT.

THAT WAS A 4-6 FOR THE SEASON.

AND HIS LAST NAME FITS HIM VERY WELL WITH THAT PUT BACK WITH A CHANCE FOR AND ONE, THE IRONMAN GET AGAIN.

THAT REPLAY.

IRONS HAS BEEN PRETTY QUIET IN THIS GAME.

CAN'T CONVERT.

BACK TO 10.

UNDER 3:30 TO GO.

HENDRICKS FOR THREE.

YES.

INSIDE OUT BASKETBALL.

THE BALL WAS GOOD.

GOT INTO THE HEART OF THE DEFENSE.

GREAT, SMART MOVE GETS IT TO HIS TEAMMATE FOR THREE.

BROWN, THE STEAL.

AND IN.

A THREE-POINT PLAY.

IT STARTED WITH THE BLESSED --BEST PLAN THE COURT FOR THE BLUE JACKETS.

HE DID NOT GO ONE-ON-ONE.

HE DIDN'T FORCE THE BASKETBALL AND DEFENSIVE LINE I'VE GOT A CHANCE TO GET A STEAL GO TO THE RIM.

NOW IT'S COMING DOWN TO A POSSIBLY FOUR-POINT CAME.

THAT IS HOW A GAME IS SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYED.

TEXTBOOK SEQUENCE.

BLUE JACKETS BEING PATIENT OFFENSIVELY AND WORKING A SMART WAY DEFENSIVELY.

GREAT PLAY.

WHAT AN EFFORT THERE BY BROWN.

DON'T GAMBLE.

STAY IN FRONT.

PRESSURE DEFENSE PAYING OFF HERE IN MACON.

UNDER THREE MINUTES TO GO.

ALSO TO WITH THE BALL.

QUARTERMAN IS FOULED.

TRIES TO FIND FOX.

STOPPAGE IN PLAY ON THE COURT.

WE WILL TAKE A TIME-OUT, AS WELL.

DON'T YOU GO ANYWHERE.

2:47 TO GO.

McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY ON TOP.

SAVANNA ON THE CHASE.

OUR SECOND OF FOUR GAMES HERE IN MACON.

THINGS HAVE REALLY HEATED UP HERE.

IF YOU ARE JUST JOINING US McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY HAS LED MOST OF THE GAME WITH SAVANNA COMING AND BIG.

IT HAS BEEN MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE HERE IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.

IT STARTED OFF WITH LACK OF COMMUNICATION BY THE BLUE JACKETS.

WHEN YOU ARE NOT COMMUNICATING, YOU'RE NOT TALKING TO EACH OTHER.

THAT WAS A SLIP BY QUARTERMAN.

NOW, HE PICKS UP A FOUL ON FOX WHO HEADS TO THE FREE THROW LINE.

SO DEFENSIVELY, LACK OF COMMUNICATION.

YOU SEE WHAT HE HAS DONE IN THE SECOND HALF FOR THE BUCCANEERS.

ALLSTATE OR HAS SOME FOOTBALL OFFERS.

SAVANNA STATE AND ST. PAUL.

ALLSTATE ARE IN FOOTBALL AS A DEFENSIVE BACK.

GREAT ATHLETE, AND OTHER WORDS.

11 POINTS IN THE GAME FOR QUARTERMAN, TRYING TO PUT McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY UP BY SIX.

PATIENTS.

PATIENTS.

IT IS A TWO-POSSESSION GAME.

HENDRICKS WITH THE BALL.

HE HAS FOUR FOULS.

JERMONTAE BROWN TOOK SOME BIG SHOTS.

INSIDE FOR JOYNER.

TIPS THAT OUT OF BOUNDS OFF THE BUCCANEER.

IT WILL STAY HERE.

BLUE JACKETS BALL.

THAT IS THE TYPE OF OFFENSE SAVANNA NEEDS TO PLAY HERE DOWN THE STRETCH.

HENDRICKS IS FOULED.

THAT FOUL IS GOING TO BE, I WANT TO SAY, ON QUARTERMAN?

YEAH.

YEAH, QUARTERMAN FOULING OUT OF THE GAME AT THE 2:25 MARK.

SO, HENDRICKS TO THE LINE SHOOTING TWO.

ELLIS IN THE GAME, IRONS, WEST, BATTLE AND HICKS.

THE SECOND ONE FOR HENDRICKS WAS TOO HARD.

JUST A FOUR-POINT GAME, 2:20 TO GO IN THE FOURTH.

LOT OF TIME.

WHO TAKES CONTROL NOW FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY WITH QUARTERMAN GONE?

FORTUNE HICKS OUT FOR BATTLE, FOR THREE.

SMART WITH THE REBOUND.

INSIDE FOR JOYNER.

FOX UP.

HE IS FOULED DOWN WILL GO TO THE LINE.

THAT IS HOW YOU PLAY THE GAME.

LET THE GAME COME TO THEM.

THE MOVEMENT OF THE BALL FORCES DEFENSE TO BE OUT OF POSITION.

NICE TOUCH.

GOOD REBOUND THERE FOR THE BOX.

ATHLETIC, PLAYING TO HIS STRENGTH.

FOUL ON NUMBER 23, DEREK IRONS FOR McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

JOYNER IS AT THE LINE.

JOYNER IS AT THE LINE BUT FOX WAS THE SHOOTER.

I THINK COACH BROWN WAS TRYING TO PULL ONE OVER AND GOOD JOB BY A COACH JONES' STAFF ACKNOWLEDGING THAT.

LONG CONVERSATION NOW WITH THE REFEREES AND YOU CAN SEE McINTOSH COUNTY TRYING TO HELP HIM OUT.

THERE IS THE REPLAY.

THAT'S THE INITIAL SHOT BY JOYNER AND THERE IS FOX WITH THE OFFENSIVE REBOUND.

HE IS THE ONE THAT WAS FOULED.

SO, THE QUESTION NOW IS COACH BROWN IS SAYING HEY YOU KNOW, YOU CAN GO REVIEW IT AND THEY'VE GOT IT RIGHT NOW.

THEY'RE GOING TO SEND FOX TO THE LINE.

YEAH.

MIGHT BE SOMETHING TO REVIEW DOWN THE LINE.

YEAH.

THERE ARE GIANT VIDEO SCREENS THERE HANGING OVER CENTER COURT.

IS THAT YOU ARE, I CAN DO THIS, DeSHAWN DAVIS.

GOOD JOB, FOX STEPPING UP AND GETTING THE FREE THROW.

IF YOU ARE SAVANNA YOU'VE GOT THREE TIME-OUTS.

TRYING TO SET UP THE PRESS.

BRUCE BACK IN, BROWN OUT FOR SAVANNA.

FULL PRESSURE FROM FOX.

TWO-POINT GAME.

DON'T GAMBLE.

SHOT CLOCK DOWN TO 28.

GOOD JOB.

THE BUCCANEERS BEING PATIENT OFFENSIVELY.

ELLIS, NO, BOUNCES OUT.

SAVANNA, THE REBOUND.

JOYNER AHEAD FOR SMART.

SPIN MOVE AND A JUMP BALL.

POSSESSION ARROW, SAVANNA.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT HERE.

NICE JOB BY IRONS.

HENDRICKS FOR THREE AND THE LEAD FOR SAVANNA.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

THAT IS THE WAY THEY ARE PLAYING THE THREE-POINT SHOOTER.

TIME-OUT, McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

GREAT PLAY BY JOYNER BECAUSE THE DEFENSE HAD TO HONOR HIS PRESENCE INSIDE THE PAINT AND THEY CALL HENDRICKS MR. HIGH IQ, AVERAGES SEVEN POINTS A GAME BUT HIS BIG NAME IS LUXURY BECAUSE HE IS LUXURY WHEN HE SHOOTS THE BASKETBALL.

4 OF 6 FROM OUTSIDE THE YARD TO LEAD SCORES IN THIS GAME AND ALL OF A SUDDEN RIGHT NOW SAVANNA WAS DOWN IN THE SECOND QUARTER BUT THEN SLOWLY WORK THEIR WAY BACK IN THROUGH THE FREE THROW LINE, THREE-POINTERS.

AND, I SAY THIS RESPECTFULLY BUT WHAT JOYNER DID I THINK YOU GOT A LITTLE FATIGUED AND REALIZED HE COULD NOT DO IT ALL.

STARTING TO GET HIS TEAMMATES MORE INVOLVED IN HIS TEAMMATES STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE.

NOW IT'S UP TO THE BUCCANEERS HOW THEY ARE GOING TO RESPOND.

WE TALKED ABOUT FOREMAN OUT OF THE SECOND HALF.

HOW ABOUT HENDRICKS.

NINE POINTS OF THIS QUARTER OF HIS 15 TO HELP BRING THEM BACK.

HE IS A BIG-TIME PLAYER, BIG-TIME SHOOTER.

NOW YOU HAVE A DEFENSIVE STANCE BY THE BLUE JACKETS NOT GAMBLING.

DON'T PUT THEM AT THE FREE THROW LINE.

McINTOSH GOING TO RUN YOUR ACTION.

TAKE A GOOD SHOT, NOT A BAD SHOT.

DON'T NEED A GREAT SHOT, JUST A GOOD ONE.

HICKS WITH THE BALL GIVING IT TO BATTLE.

BATTLE TO DRIVE.

KNOCKED AWAY, STOLEN.

HENDRICKS WITH IT AGAIN.

FOUL ON BATTLE.

AND, I THINK HE IS DONE.

IT IS A SET DEFENSE.

THE DEFENSE WAS SET LOOKING AT YOU.

THAT'S NOT THE TYPE OF FALL YOU NEED DEFENSIVE ACTION.

HE FROZE THE BASKETBALL TEAR IT --TEAM BASKETBALL.

I CAN RESPECT WANTING THE BASKETBALL SO BAD BUT SOMETIMES YOU'VE GOT TO LET THE GAME COME TO YOU.

10 POINTS, SEVEN REBOUNDS.

HENDRICKS AT THE LINE.

HIT THE FIRST.

HE'S GOT A SECOND.

I THINK WE WILL GET A TIME-OUT HERE.

54-51.

WHAT A RUN HERE.

BY THE SAVANNA BLUE JACKETS.

17-3 RUN.

IT WAS 48-37 AFTER ELLIS HIT ONE OF TWO FREE THROWS AND THEN IT IS ALL SAVANNA.

JOYNER WITH THE THREE-POINT PLAY.

BROWN, THE THREE-POINT PLAY COMING OFF THE STEAL THE FAST-BREAK PLAY-UP.

17 POINTS AND NOW THEY'RE UP BY THREE.

KUDOS TO COACH BROWN AND HIS STAFF.

THAT IS THE FIRST THING.

SECOND OF ALL, GREAT TIME-OUT.

IT IS A TIME-OUT TO CONTROL YOUR TEAM, TO COACH THEM NOW.

THEY ARE YOUNG.

THEY ARE CAUGHT UP IN THEIR EMOTIONS AND SOMETIMES YOUR EMOTIONS MAKE YOU PLAY FASTER THAN YOU REALLY NEED TO.

IT'S ABOUT PRESSURE CONTAINMENT.

SECURE THE DEFENSE OF REBOUND AND THAT IS WHAT LOSES HAVE TO DO.

NOW McINTOSH IN THE OTHER HAND, IT'S NOT A RUSH SHOT.

DOWN BY THREE IT'S OKAY.

DON'T FEEL THAT YOU HAVE TO HIT A HOME RUN ON THE FIRST PITCH.

TAKE YOUR TIME.

GET A SINGLE, GET A TWO, GET A DEFENSIVE STOP AND NOW YOU HAVE GOT A BALL GAME.

IMPRESSIVE TURNAROUND.

IN THIS GAME.

RIGHT NOW MAKE HIM WORK TO GET THE BALL IN.

HE IS A PERMANENT BALL HANDLER.

DOUBLE-TEAM WEST SO HE WON'T GET THE BALL.

SMART.

DRAKE IN THE GAME GETS IT TO HICKS.

BUCCANEERS DOWN BY THREE.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP ON THE LINE.

SAVANNA HAS NOT WON ONE SINCE 1998.

ALICE CORRALLING.

BALL TAKEN AWAY ON THE GROUND.

SAVANNA BALL.

THEY CALLED THE TIME-OUT.

TIME-OUT CALLED BY SAVANNA.

HERE IT IS AGAIN.

JOYNER CALLING A TIME-OUT BEFORE THE JUMP BALL.

YES, IF IT WAS A JUMP BALL, IT WOULD'VE BEEN BUCCANEERS' POSSESSION.

GREAT TIME-OUT BY JOYNER TO KEEP POSSESSION OF THE BALL.

30+ SECONDS TO GO IN THE GAME AND IT IS A GAME OF EMOTIONS AND WHAT YOU DON'T WANT HIS TEAMS TO GET SO EMOTIONAL THAT BAD PLAYS START TO HAPPEN, UNNECESSARY FOULS.

RIGHT NOW BE WISE ABOUT THEIR TACTICS HERE TOWARD THE END OF THE GAME.

WE TALKED ABOUT AGAIN PLAYERS MAKING BIG PLAYS AND THE PLAY OF CHANCE, HENDRICKS, AND WHAT HE HAS DONE HERE AND THE BIG THREE-POINTER AND A GOOD NO LOOK.

LET'S GIVE THAT THERE TO RUTH TO PUT THEM ON TOP.

OH YEAH I'VE GOT THE PLAY DEFENSE.

AND HOW ABOUT THE DEFENSE HERE.

THE LAST FIELD GOAL BY McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

THEY'VE GONE ALMOST FIVE MINUTES WITHOUT A FIELD GOAL.

YOU ARE FOCUSING ON THE OFFENSE BY SAVANNA BUT THE LAST TWO DEFENSIVE POSSESSIONS, THEIR TURNOVERS HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY TURNER SO HE IS NOW ON THE DEFENSIVE END AND HAS BEEN VERY EFFECTIVE.

INBOUND KICKED BY HICKS.

PRE-POINT GAME.

DIVISION TWO CHAMPIONSHIP ON THE LINE TRYING TO GET IT TO JOYNER.

FOX TO THE LAYOUT.

THAT IS NOT WHAT WAS INTENDED BUT IT WORKS.

STILL A FIVE-POINT GAME.

WESTON HE IS DOWN TO THE THREE-POINT SHOT.

YOU GET CAUGHT UP IN THE EMOTION OF THE GAME.

IT WAS A BAD SHOT WAS NOT GOING TO MAKE IT BUT YOU GET CAUGHT UP IN THE EMOTIONS AND MAKE AN L-ADVISED FOUL.

WEST IS AT THE FREE THROW LINE.

THAT CHANCE TO CUT IT DOWN TO A TWO-POINT GAME WITH 21 SECONDS TO GO.

HUGE FREE THROWS HERE A CHANCE TO CUT IT DOWN TO A ONE-POSSESSION GAME.

WEST, 5'10" SENIOR WE TALKED ABOUT AGAIN ONE OF THE TOP ASSIST MEN IN THE STATES.

GETS THE SECOND.

THE TIME-OUT I'M SURE COMING UP BY McINTOSH.

TRY TO SET THE FULL-COURT PRESS.

QUARTERMAN IS FOULED OUT.

ONE OF THE LEADERS.

WEST GETS THE REBOUND.

TIME-OUT CALLED.

BY COACH JONES.

STILL A TWO-POSSESSION GAME, 56-52, 18 SECONDS LEFT.

PLAIN TAN WATCHING JOYNER WALK OFF THE COURT.

HE IS TOUGH.

YES, HE IS LIKE YOU KNOW, I MAY NOT BE THE TOP SCORER TODAY BUT I'M GOING TO LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

HE IS DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN.

LEADERSHIP SOMETIMES IS YOU CAN LEAD BY ACTION.

JOYNER STARTED LEADING BY ACTION.

HIS PRESENCE COMMUNICATING A DEFENSE OF PRESENT AND HE IS ENTIRE TEAMMATES START TO FOLLOW HIS LEAD.

THIS IS A DEFENSIVE STANCE FOR McINTOSH.

MOST IMPORTANT THING IS GET THE BALL IN.

THEY'RE GOING TO GO FOR THE FOUL.

THEY'RE GOING TO GO FOR THE STEAL.

TALKING ABOUT THE BUCCANEERS.

YOU STILL HAVE ONE TIME-OUT LEFT.

18 SECONDS TO GO IN THE GAME.

QUARTERMAN IS OUT AND HAD 11 POINTS.

BATTLE IS OUT AND HE HAD 10 POINTS.

ELLIS ON THE COURT WITH 11 POINTS.

HICKS WITH THE DRIVE.

REBOUND.

FOX.

8.4 LEFT.

THEY HAVE TO CELEBRATE IN BLUE JACKET LAND.

FOUL IS ON ELLIS.

THAT IS HIS FOURTH.

FOUR-POINT GAME.

THAT WAS A QUESTION OFFENSIVELY.

WHO DO YOU GO TO.

IT IS A TEAM EFFORT FOR SAVANNA.

TEAM EFFORT.

OUTSTANDING.

STEPHON FOX SHOOTING TWO.

AND, I THINK THAT'S IT.

AND IF I WERE TO SAY DOES ANYONE GIVE THE GAME BALL TO HENDRICKS THE WAY HE IS PLAYED EIGHT SHOTS DOWN THE STRETCH BUT THE WAY JOYNER HAS PERSEVERED, IT'S ALMOST A DOUBLE HEADED MONSTER.

HOW ABOUT FOX WITH SIX POINTS HERE IN THE QUARTER.

WEST FOR THREE.

NO.

AND IT IS ALL OVER.

SAVANNA FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1988, STATE CHAMPIONS.

IT IS FRIDAY NIGHT AND I THINK THEY ARE GOING TO PARTY IN SAVANNA LIKE IT IS 1988.

YES, THE BLOOD, THE SWEAT, THE TEARS.

UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN IN THE LOCKER ROOM, UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN AT THOSE PRACTICES YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHERE THE TEARS COME FROM.

ONE OF THE QUOTES I CAME UP WITH YEARS AGO, THE ROAD THAT YOU TRAVEL DETERMINES THE VALUE OF THE PRIZE IN THE COACH TALKED ABOUT THE 6:00 A.M. PRACTICES.

YOU'VE GOT 11 SENIORS ON THIS TEAM, THE LAST FOUR YEARS THAT IS ALL THEY THOUGHT ABOUT, STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

TONIGHT THIS AFTERNOON THEY CUT DOWN THE NETS.

HENDRICKS IS 17 POINTS EIGHT REBOUNDS JOYNER, 14 POINTS EIGHT REBOUNDS.

THREE STEALS.

AND THEY CLOSE THE GAME ON AND 18-2 RUN.

NO GOALS ALLOWED IN THE FINAL 5:04 TO TAKE THIS FROM A 10-POINT DEFICIT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO A SIX-POINT WIN.

FASHIONABLE WIN THERE BY THE BLUE JACKETS AND THAT IS A MEMORY THESE KIDS WILL TAKE THIS WITH THEM.

THIS IS A LIFE LESSON.

NEVER GIVE UP.

REGARDLESS OF THE OUTCOME HOW YOU THINK IT'S GOING TO END STAY FOCUSED, STAY POSITIVE AND NEVER GIVE UP.

THEY STAYED.

THEY GOT COACHED WELL.

COACH BROWN DID AN EXCELLENT JOB.

THEY KNOW EACH OTHER REALLY WELL RIGHT THERE.

COACH BROWN AND COACH JONES.

THIS IS THE FIRST MATCHUP.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A DYNASTY OR TRILOGY OF THESE GUYS GETTING BACK HERE EACH AND EVERY YEAR IN THE STATE FINALS.

TWO VETERAN TEAMS, A LOT OF SENIORS ON BOTH TEAMS.

A LOT OF SENIORS ON THIS SAVANNA BLUE JACKETS ROSTER THEY BEAT THEIR RIVALS TO THE SOUTH OF THEM THREE TIMES OUT OF FOUR.

LET'S GO DOWN TO JON NELSON AT CENTER COURT.

TIME TO PRESENT YET ANOTHER TROPHY HERE AT THE MACON COLISEUM, ANOTHER SPECIAL MOMENT FOR A GREAT TEAM WITH A LOT OF HISTORY HERE IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

TO DO IT, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION, DR. TIM SCOTT AND OUR FRIENDS FROM BREDA PEST MANAGEMENT.

HEY, LET'S GIVE BOTH THESE TEAMS A GREAT ROUND OF APPLAUSE.

WHAT A GAME.

NOW, ON BEHALF OF THE GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION, WE ARE ASKING BREDA PEST MANAGEMENT TO PRESENT THE CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY TO SAVANNA HIGH SCHOOL STATE CHAMPS.

ONCE AGAIN MARGO, OUR CLASS A DIVISION II STATE CHAMPIONS THE BLUE JACKETS OF SAVANNAH STATE HIGH SCHOOL AND THE CLASS A DIVISION STATE RUNNER-UP BUCCANEERS OF McINTOSH COUNTY ACADEMY.

HERE WE GO, ALL RIGHT.

LET ME ASK YOU THIS.

YOU GET TO JOIN THE HISTORY OF FOLKS LIKE TIM JORDAN WHO IS HERE TODAY, ANOTHER TROPHY GOES INTO THE TROPHY CASE.

WHAT IS IT LIKE HOLDING THAT THING?

IT'S AN UNBELIEVABLE FEELING, MA'AM, SHOUT OUT TO THE 912.

ONE THING I WANT TO SAY BEFORE IT IS ALL SAID AND DONE, SHOUT OUT TO McINTOSH, SHOUT OUT TO THE 912, SHOUT OUT TO SAVANNA.

LISTEN, GUYS, MORE IMPORTANTLY THAN ALL THAT, SHOUT OUT TO THE SAVANNA HIGH VARSITY BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM FOR EVERYTHING THEY EVER CAME TO BE CHAMPIONS NOW.

I AM EXTREMELY INDEBTED AND PROUD OF THESE BOYS WHEN PEOPLE SAID THEY COULDN'T DO IT, WHEN PEOPLE THROUGH THEIR NAME IN THE MUD WE OVERCAME WE CONQUERED.

ADVERSITY HIT AND WE WEATHERED THE STORM AND DID WHAT WE NEEDED TO DO TO BE CHAMPIONS, SO THIS MEANS THESE KIDS CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT IN LIFE.

IT'S BIGGER THAN JUST THIS BASKETBALL GAME.

THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT IN LIFE BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN THROWING PUNCHES AND NOW LOOK AT THEM, THEY ARE CHAMPION SO WHEN YOU ALL TALK ABOUT SAVANNA HIGH, FOR CHAMPION INSIDE THAT, TOO.

MORE FROM MACON COMING UP AFTER THIS.

WHAT A GAME.

SAVANNA'S FIRST AID TITLE SINCE 1988, 12th AND HISTORY AND THIS IS A GAME THAT WILL LOOK VERY DIFFERENT.

3:31 TO GO, 10-POINT LEAD FOR McINTOSH ACADEMY SAVANNA NEVER GAVE UP.

THEY NEVER GAVE UP.

IT WAS ONE SPEED FROM BEGINNING TO THE END.

A FEW POSSESSIONS IN BETWEEN DEFENSIVELY.

JOYNER CALMED DOWN, HIS TEAMMATES CALM DOWN AND SAVANNA CAME OUT WITH A W BUT BOTH COACHES CAME UP WITH A GREAT COACHING PLAN AND A BEAUTIFUL BASKETBALL GAME WE JUST WITNESSED.

JOHN WANTS TO COMMENT.

HE DIDN'T GET ENOUGH CAMERA TIME.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S JUST ROLL THE VIDEO AND MOVE ONTO THE NEXT THING.

OUR TIME IS DONE, I GUESS.

WHAT AN EFFORT TODAY.

WHAT A CLASSIC MATCHUP BETWEEN TWO TEAMS FROM SOUTHEAST GEORGIA, THE BUCCANEERS CONTROLLING FOR THREE AND HALF QUARTERS IN THIS GAME BUT THE BLUE JACKETS, THE HUGE FINISH ON BOTH ENDS OF THE COURT.

ALICE, THERE, BUT IT WAS THIS SHOT BY CHANCE HENDRICKS THAT PUTS THE JACKETS UP AND THEY GO HOME CHAMPIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIS CENTURY.

OUR IN BETWEEN SHOW IS COMING UP NEXT.

LET'S GET YOU CAUGHT UP ON WHAT YOU HAVE MISSED TODAY.

EARLIER TODAY AT 1:00 IT WAS THE GIRLS SINGLE A DIVISION II MATCHUP.

THEY TOOK DOWN WASHINGTON COUNTY FOR THEIR FIRST EVER TITLE IN COMING UP AT 5:00, ACTUALLY JUST IN A FEW MINUTES IT WAS LEAVE THE GIRLS THREE-POINT CONTEST.

AFTER THAT AT 5:30 IT IS THE GIRLS 5A MATCHUP AND AT 7:30, BOYS 5A TURN.

TRI-CITIES VERSUS WOODWARD ACADEMY.

COACH AND PLAYERS STANDING BY SO DO NOT MISS IT.

STICK WITH US.

WE WILL BE RIGHT BACK HERE ON GPB SPORTS.

WELCOME BACK TO COUNTDOWN TO TIP OFF.

WE ARE CELEBRATING WITH THE CHAMPS.

WE HAVE HAD COACH GEORGE BROWN TO OUR RIGHT.

WE HAVE CHANCE HENDRICKS TO MY LEFT.

SAVANNA BEATS McINTOSH COUNTY.

MVP OF THE GAME 17.8 REBOUNDS.

WHAT DOES IT FEEL TO GET YOUR SCHOOL'S FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN A WHILE?

I'M VERY EXCITED.

I'M VERY HAPPY.

WE WORKED HARD FOR FOUR YEARS STRAIGHT TO DO THIS.

WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THE LEADERSHIP YOU AND YOUR TEAMMATES BROUGHT TODAY?

I BROUGHT A LOT OF LEADERSHIP.

I HAD TO COME OUT AND SET THE TONE AND MAKE OUR TEAMWORK.

I HAD A GO AT THEM HARD.

I FELT LIKE I GOT IN THE GAME AND GOT THEM ROLLING.

MY COACH TOLD ME JUST STAY CALM AND SHOOT SHOTS LIKE I WAS IN PRACTICE SO I WAS JUST LETTING IT FLY.

I WAS GOING TO SAY, THAT WAS AN ACCURATE ASSESSMENT?

PRETTY ACCURATE, MAN.

JUST A TESTAMENT I'M SORRY, NUMBER 2, HE'S ACTUALLY BEEN DEALING WITH A LOT.

TORN PATELLA, HE'S ONLY PLAYED TWO YEARS AND NOW HE'S FULLY HEALTHY AND HE GAVE US EVERYTHING HE GOT.

HE SINGLE-HANDEDLY STOLE THE SHOW HE KEPT TELLING US TRUST ME HAVE GOT YOU AND ONE THING ABOUT THE SAVANNA KIDS THAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW WE'VE BEEN TRUSTING THEM ALL YEAR AND THEY TRUSTED ME SO I'M MORE THAN GRATEFUL AND PROUD OF CHANCE BECAUSE BELIEVE IT OR NOT THERE IS A POINT IN TIME WE TALKED ABOUT GIVING THIS UP AND I SAID YOU'RE TOO GOOD OF A PLAYER BUT INJURIES WERE BOTHERING HIM.

MENTALLY HE WAS OUT OF IT BUT HE STAYED THE COURSE.

HE TRUSTED ME, HE WORKED THROUGH THIS WHOLE PROCESS, HE GRANTED SO HARD SO IT'S NO COINCIDENCE GOD PUT HIM ON THE STAGE TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THE LAST GAME OF HIS CAREER PLAYING FOR ME.

I'M GOING TO MISS THESE GUYS A LOT.

30 SECONDS, NO FIELD GOALS ALLOWED IN THE LAST FIVE MINUTES AGAINST McA.

YEAH, I WISH THEY WOULD'VE BEEN PLAYING DEFENSE THE WHOLE GAME.

THEY SCARED ME.

I ALMOST TOLD THEM ALL RIGHT, AFTER WE WALK OUT, I'M JUST GOING TO COVER TIME WHAT YOU GUYS HANDLE IT BUT JUST A TESTAMENT TO HER KIDS LIKE A SAY THEY REALLY WORKED HARD.

GRINDING IT OUT AND DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS AND OBVIOUSLY WE DID A PRETTY GOOD JOB I GUESS BECAUSE WE WON ONE.

SO DEFENSE EQUALS CHAMPIONSHIPS.

YOU HAD A GOOD DEFENSE.

PRETTY SIMPLE.

HANNAH LIKES TO HAVE THESE TROPHIES BE IN THE SAME SENTENCES OF COACH JORDAN WHO IS HERE TODAY.

WELL DONE, GREAT COME BACK.

THE TROPHY IS HEADING BACK.

VERY COOL.

I WANT TO MENTION TO JORDAN, WE ARE TIED NOW.

I'M JUST GLAD TO BE WITH SUCH A PROMINENT LEGEND IN GEORGIA BASKETBALL SO LIKE I SAID, HOPEFULLY I CAN GET ANOTHER ONE SO I CAN ONE UP HIM.

COACH BROWN, CHANCE, CONGRATULATIONS.

WE'RE GOING TO LET YOU GO CELEBRATE WITH YOUR TEAM.

FOR THOSE WATCHING, STICK AROUND.

IT IS THE GIRLS THREE-POINT CONTEST RIGHT HERE ON GPB.

DON'T GO ANYWHERE.
