Cardinals vs. American Falls


American Falls came to visit on Saturday night ~ I wondered if the boys would be nervous after a their first loss two nights before. They seemed to work out the kinks and came out strong against A.F. I really need to do these posts the night of the games, so that I can remember. I think Seth had 4 points in the first half. He didn't get a 3 pointer to go in the first half & was a little stressed, but came out of the half on fire. He got his own offensive rebound & put it back up for 2 - bug Mara's to post the cool video of that on her blog! Bergholm called a play for Seth to shoot a 3 from the corner:





Swish!!!

After the first 3 point shot, they went to him in the corner 2 more times. Yep - 9 points in 3 possessions - It was crazy!!! After the 3rd shot Bergholm had him sit down for the rest of the game - he didn't even play the 4th quarter. That threw the game into the mercy rule - clock doesn't stop. It would have been fun to see how high he could have scored, but in the name of good sportsmanship, I guess it was the right thing to do. Here is the ISJ's article from the game:

Frankos’ 17 helps Cardinals soar past Beavers
Riding 17 points from James Frankos and 15 from Seth Stoor, host Soda Springs defeated American Falls 65-29 on Saturday night.

The Cardinals (6-1) were ahead 21-9 in the first quarter and led the Beavers (3-4) at half-time by 17 (37-20)

“We had a pretty good night,” said Soda Springs head coach Greg Bergholm. “We jumped out to a lead in the first and had our guys looking for the good shot. We also shared the ball very well.”

Mason Shipp led American Falls with 11, but a running clock and the tough Cardinals man-toman defense kept the Beavers bottled up in the second half.

The Cardinals next play at Grace on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.
