Thief River Falls – Brian Lowe, Eastern Heart Coach Grand Forex, said that the key to eagle was in the post -season “storm”.
Lower 46-45 in the middle of the second half on Friday against Kelliher-Northe, a team with an average of about 90 points in the game, could have gathered clouds and created a kind of dangerous weather that he was hoping to avoid.
Instead, Al-Nsour-the leadership of their group of talented second year students-has won a victory for 70-56 in the title match in 8A, and won the first trip of the team to the state championship nine years ago.
“We have talked a lot about the storm’s lord,” Louis said. “We opened where we struggled to score or had some times when we gave up some points in a short period of time. We knew that (Kelliher-nathome) was able to put fast points and we just said,” This might happen, and if so, the stormy weather and calm. “
“We have been able to keep calm, maintain our heads and continue to implement our game plan.”
Winning gives the sacred heart a record number 24-6 as it heads to the twin cities of the first category of the country. Kelliher-Northe ends its season on 26-4.
Driven by success from behind the 3-point line, the sacred heart rose 39-34 at the end of the first half. In the last six minutes of the first half, Al -Nisour got 3 throws from Lea Sondby and Lydia Ricky and Ella Arnson. Sundby was two in the range, hitting 3 index with 6:15 to play in half to give the sacred heart progress 21-20 and then another with 49 seconds left to make it 39-32.
In the second half, with a sacred heart 45-38, the Kelliher-Northa crime. Two baskets from Charlie Halstersum and one of Kate Thear and Kelly Pinkley were credited with one point, 46-45.
He had everything that fits with the return of a high -energy proven crime.
“It was a big storm that we had in this game,” Louis said.
But the holy heart took over. Lixi Lawrence hit the short bird to tie it in 48 with 9:40 to play, followed by 3 Fenley Horkin Index. Next, Lawrence 2 from 4 of the free throw line went on consecutive trips to the bottom on the ground and hit Arneson and Horkin 3 throws. The stealing of the sacred heart from Sundby set up another indicator of 3- This is from Lydia Riskey with 4:37 to play-which gave the sacred heart progress 63-51.
For more than five minutes-starting from 7: 36-Kelliher-nathome was held without a point. Mustang finally put a basketball with 2:26 left, on the throw of the ball from alli lundin, but it ended with that time.
“We were in an unpleasant trouble and some somewhat brought out of our game. Kevin Waldou, the coach of Kelhr, Kevin Waldou said:“ We were unable to do what we wanted to do in an aggressive manner and our defense was not equal in the second half. ” We knew that they were a good shooting team from 3 points if they got three open-and we left a lot of three open three.
“Get us out of our game.”
For the sacred heart, Lawrence was 24 points, Ricky was 14 points and was Sundby 10. Erntson and Horkin were nine. All five are the second year students.

Among the keys to winning, according to Lawrence, who is 6 feet length, the Eagles’s ability to push the ball was below, as it was drawn in the defense and the opening of the footage around the ocean for the archers of the 3 -point team. She said confidence also helped.
“We were the weak, but we went out and showed them,” she said. “Our trainers had confidence in us and said that we are better than them, and we believed them.”
