AAAAHHH another loss...

So, after another nail-biting finish, we lost again tonight to Transy by a score of 80-78. We were up at one point in the first half by 13 before they edged their way back in and we were up 2 points at halftime (35-37). They took the lead to start the second half and we went back and forth the rest of the way (most of the time us coming back)... until the final minute of the game when I hit a 3 pointer that cut the Transy lead to 1. Then, we fouled them. They hit some free throws, then we drove, got fouled and made a free throw. And they were ahead by 2. We fouled their player with 6 seconds left and she missed both shots and we went the length of the court and didn't get a shot off before the buzzer sounded. Disappointing? YES. Another loss. Every game, I believe we can win. It's just getting more disheartening each game to walk away with another 'L' tagged to our record. 2 of my best friends were at the game and they said we played so good and they thought we were going to definitely win. I said 'thanks' and the 'yeah, i thought we were gonna win too.' but the truth is i'm so tired of losing! 2 points or 30 points doesn't make a difference. A loss is a loss and we have the most of them in our league. I know we're not that team that just rolls over and lets people beat them and we'll fight to the end of every game, but for once, we need to come out on top of a nail-biter. Get some confidence back in ourselves. We know we're a good team. We can take the top teams like Transy and Manchester down to the wire but we can't find what it takes yet or put together a string of offense and defense to seal a victory. I'm praying that Saturday is different. I've played Hiram twice in college and both times won handily. I just hope that Saturday we come in with something to prove. We can't play down to any more teams and we have to bring our 'A' game the rest of the way if we want to change our season. I know we can do it. We just have to believe it. More blogging to come about some lighter subjects with the team and hopefully, they are more fun and get a few comments. =]
