Welcome to SWVA!!

All the credit in the world to Gate for their furious rally there at the end. They have a very good team. MHS had a very similar game against Graham last year and went on to cut the nets down. Adversity will make you stronger. Go Dogs!!
 
Thought this was a very good game. Both teams shot the ball really well and played a heck of a game on both sides of the ball. GC made 3-4 really poor passes in a row with about 3-5 mins left in the 4th that led to the 12-0 run by MHS. No rally would have been needed if they stay sharp with the ball....GC was in the game the whole night and had the lead several times. There was 16 lead changes and 8 times the ballgame was tied.

Best of luck to the Dogs! Would love to see a rematch between the Dogs and the Devils. This was maybe one of the best games I've seen all year.
