For a retiree, high school sporting events are a fun, inexpensive source of live entertainment. That said, as a long time Shorecrest supporter, I want my money back. The varsity games were two of the worst played and terribly managed games I've seen all year. I expected the underdogs to play their hardest against their cross-town rivals. Instead, all I saw was what I call "stupid ball"--not something I expect by this point in the season. I didn't even see the fundamentals of team play. Was there even one effective screen for an outside shooter in either game? Hats off to the T-Birds for playing like a team ought to play!
