The Game

     It was five minutes before the start of the championship game; the
most important game of their lives.  1999 Class B State Basketball
Champions, Shelby Tigers.  “That had a nice ring to it,” thought Todd, their
star point guard and leading scorer.  Todd was also the leader in steals,
assists, and rebounds averaging 27.6 points, 4.3 steals, 10.7 assists, and 11.4
rebounds per game.  One of his greatest accomplishments was being voted

end of the first quarter the score was 21-18, in favor of the Tigers.
     “Good quarter,” said coach Zoulek “Keep it up guys.”
     Sweating and gasping for air the team was fired up and ready to kick
some butt.  To start off the second quarter the Cougars drained a trey from
downtown and tied up the game.  Todd quickly pushed the ball up court and
dished it off to Kenny for an easy lay-up.  After that both teams went cold
