Sunday  (2-12)

Batesville Deanery Semi-Finals.
St. Louis-1  27     St. Michael’s-2  22
St. Michael’s-1  43     St. Louis-2  33

In a game where point would be hard to come by, St. Louis-1 was able to defeat St. Michael’s-2 27-22 to advance to the deanery finals for the second year in a row.

St. Michael’s-2 was able to control the tempo of the game and were able to keep themselves in the game. St. Louis-2 would take a 2 point lead after the first quarter 11-9 as Anthony Butz hit a jumper at the buzzer. Defense was the story in the a second quarter as both teams would only score 2 points each and St. Louis would lead 13-11 at halftime.

The second half would be a repeat of the first half as neither team could get anything going on the offensive end. This was a good team we beat and they were able to control the tempo of the game, but we were able to grind it out and get the win.

We were glad to get the win and be able to play for the deanery championship next Sunday.
