ankle injury blake palmer cold and darryl stevenson ankle turn at less than full strength the tigers were per forming under their potential according to coach tim huleatt having just five players we had to run a lax defence because we didnt want to run into foul trouble said huleatt the tigers who led 3820 at the half were still able to dom inate the boards said huleatt which resulted in many inside baskets for his team we were a taller team so we could beat them in close and we had worked on passing and inside shooting at practice ear lier in the week and it seemed to pay off added huleatt however the coach said the tigers would have to play an improved game if they hoped to beat brock hs in the lossa semi final which was to have been played yesterday hopeful cur injured players will be able to play up to form well need to play much better than we did against port perry if we hope to beat brock i lv rv sjfwkoote siife
