Re: Boy's 2013 QCIBT
Leftover info from the QCIBT from today's UL:
TWO take-aways from the Queen City Invitational Basketball Tournament:
1. Central junior guard Brett Hanson has emerged as an offensive weapon for head coach Doc Wheeler's squad. As evidenced by his career-high 38 points against a talented Trinity team in a 66-55 win, teams across the state are going to pay the price if they try to play man-to-man defense against him.
"We played man against him and just couldn't find a way to stop him that night," said Trinity coach Dave Keefe. "He's got a first quick step, a nice soft shot and has very good awareness. The kid played outstanding, and we have to find a way to contain him the next time we play them."
2. Trinity junior forward Wenyen Gabriel is still not 100 percent coming off a broken ankle.
"From the basketball shape level he needs to be in, he's still two weeks away," said Keefe. "Now for any high school player coming off the type of injury he had, it's quite normal to favor it. When he jumps and comes down, we can still see he puts 70 percent of his weight on his good ankle and 30 percent on the other. The doctors, trainers and my coaches have all told him his ankle has fully healed, but he's still battling it psychologically. He's not fully trusting it yet. Once he gets there, and he will at some point this season, he'll definitely return as a stronger and better player."
