Final score: Lancers-63 Monarchs-55
It was a packed night at Santa Clara University. Every seat taken all the way to the top. The game was pretty close, neck and neck through the 3rd. Saint Francis began to pull away in the 4th though after switching to zone defense. Hitting threes, getting steals and offensive rebounds. It was a fun game.
I headed down to the packed Rage Cage at the half. The game itself was very fun. Each side had the student section, but it seemed as if the stadium was about 70% SFHS fans. Behind each backboard were the school bands. SFHS covered the entire corner with all brown band members, while Mitty had about 10-15 people in their little corner.
There was an intense band battle as well, after Mitty played one of our songs a few intermissions after we played the same song. Lancer fans were booing. At the next intermission, the entire band stood up and played the same song AGAIN, but with so much more intensity. Everyone felt bad for Mitty. It was really fun. Chanting and screaming with the band.
Anyway, it was a good game. Mitty prolonged the game within the final minute trying to foul when they were down by 16.
