This could be the last match of the season and a lot depends on this result. It's the second match Cougars have played today and it will be a real test of stamina and attitude.
The game starts and Horsham score first then carry on to put 9 points on the board. Coach calls a time out to regroup the team. Michael breaks the score with 2 points and draws a foul scoring one more. Hawks are shooting well and the first quarter finishes 21-9 to the Hawks
Q2. For the first time in a while the Cougars defence is being breached. TheHawks look like a well drilled team. This time it looks like Cougars confidencehas dropped but there is still time to pick it up. Q2 ends 44-21 in favour of Hawks.
Q3. Henry and Michael are subbed as they are both on 4 fouls. This quarter is more subdued and Cougars are determined not to let the lead grow. A Hawks player takes a tumble and looks like he's off for the match.Jago gets a finger in the eye and is subbed. It's a physical match!
The quarter ends 62-28 - It's unlike Cougars not to score more points.
Q4. This time it's the opponents who are on top for most of the match, making the baskets count. Cougars make a lot of small mistakes which Hawks capitalise on. The match ends 85-34 in favour of Hawks.
The team put a lot of effort in but the shots didn't go in for us today.
