Posted on February 18, 2012 by instaimage

The Douglas Boys Basketball team faced a very good Hug High team tonight, they pulled close, even tying the game at one point but in the end it just wasn’t quite enough… Both teams will play Thursday at Lawlor Arena on the UNR Campus in the State Semifinal games… Douglas will play Bishop Gorman (Vegas) at 4:40 PM and Hug will play Green Valley (Vegas) at 8:00 PM. The State 4A Championship will be Friday night @ 8:00 PM. The 1A, 2A and 3A State Championships are also at Lawlor during this upcoming weekend…

Here are some shots from the night…

This one goes in my “… clearly the refs don’t get all the calls “right”…” This was called an offensive foul agains Douglas (note the hand in the upper left corner… I don’t recall that being “legal” )

… and some action shots from the night… Good luck on Thursday Fellas!!

Douglas High Boys Basketball, First Round of Playoffs…

Posted on February 15, 2012 by instaimage

The Douglas Boys hosted McQueen tonight… they came away with a convincing 62-42 win. Coach Thacker made full use of his entire squad swapping out the entire line up towards the end of the game with 5 fresh new players… Douglas heads to Spanish Springs on Friday to meet Reed in the Regional Semifinal.

Here are a few shot from tonight… check out the season’s action at the Douglas High Athletics link on the side.

I was messing around before the game… and it appeared to be during dunk practice… I just got lucky I guess… they were all dunking… so here’s just one… many more at the link for DHS Athletics…

The atmosphere in the Douglas Gym is always great! Their band is top notch, always playing great basketball game music, the students are always amped up and having fun… it’s just a fun place to be during games, it’s the type of environment that you would wish for as a player! Something to be proud of DHS!!

… and of course, some game action! :)

Carson High Girls Basketball… First round of Playoffs…

Posted on February 14, 2012 by instaimage

The Carson High Girls took away a first round win tonight in the NIAA Regional Basketball Tournament… They head to a neutral location (Spanish Springs) on Thursday for their next game against Reed High @ 5:00 PM.

Good Luck Ladies!! Check out the rest of the images from the whole season at the link on the side for Carson High Athletics…

Here’s a few from the night…

CLEARLY the refs don’t see everything…

The first half was… well, I’ll call it strange… Carson looked about three steps slower than typical… it almost seemed like they were trying to get through the first have without exerting too much energy… the second half was a different story altogether… full court press, offensive execution, the baskets fell, the three pointers fell… and they came away with a win!!
