And there’s Coach Buckelew. 26 years as the Oilers head coach.
First quarter, watch the hustle by Patrick Bridges to keep the loose ball in bounds. It winds up in the hands of Clay Page who’s right handed layup goes around the rim and in. 6-3 early lead for Pearland.
In the second, more great hustle but this time by the Wildcats. After the Charles Clark steal, watch Nic Anderson fly down the court to block the Page layup attempt.
Then here’s Anderson on the offensive end, working through tight quarters in the paint and still makes the layup. Clear Creek up 24-19 at the half.
Second half, more Anderson, after a block on one end, Anderson breaks free for an easy layup. 2 of his 17 points helped Wildcats lead 30-19.
But the Oilers would storm back. Clark drops Anderson on the crossover and then nails the jumper. He also scored 17 and Pearland wins a tight one, 40-38.
