In the MT vs. Brebeuf B we played half-court from the 2nd quarter on alternated 5-on 5-off.

No fast break. no half-court pressure. They are all Gr. 9's and their best player who is good was missing.

We did our best to keep it down.Maybe there should have been two levels the top 8 and the other 8

Sunday February 7th:
Semi-finals:
10:45am - Vaughan vs. Notre Dame (Ajax)

Championship Final at 1:30pm

Wow,100 point game, that's crazy.

A 100 point game is very rare. I've only ever heard of it before in that Texas match.

What strategies did Notre Dame implement to keep the game at less than 60 points? How do the players and coach from Parkdale feel about the game with Mother Teresa? That's the only thing that really matters.

Let's face it - if the players and coach from Parkdale are okay with what happened, there is nothing wrong with the 100 point win, in this case.

Coach,

MT was playing Brebeuf B. Their coach thanked us for stopping the break and playing half-court.

My fellow coach and their coach talked for at least half an hour following the game.

On top of everything every shot we were taking was going in. One of those games, there was no pressure on us and we just relaxed and made shots.

There are plenty of 100 point games every year. Fr. Henry Carr 115-90 over St. Mary's.

Vaughan has had several including 112-47 over a good Dunbarton team.

They are not a great experience for anyone involved but they do happen right here in the GTA.

Coach Clement,

I meant games where the margin is 100.

As I stated and you clarified, if the other team is able to walk away with their dignity and there are no hard feelings from the opposing coach, I don't see a problem with that score.

I think it's unfair that some people were making accusations of 'no mercy' without knowing the details.

Coach Imgrund

i don't get how the semis are made when some teams like pickering b havin't lost

Vaughan beat Pickering B by a good margin.

What a day of basketball! Tiring, exciting and fun. For me, it really showed which teams were prepared after the holiday/exam break. Mental toughness and conditioning really told the tale in those last set of evening games. Thanks for Mr. Kerr for setting up a nice tournament :-)

I would like to comment on the 100 pt games.

As hard as coaches work to beat teams by 10 I think they can become more creative when it comes to preserving the feelings of the players of teams who can be beaten by 100. It's not enough to pull off your press after the half. If everything you put up goes in then stop shooting. One may reply: "Asking my players to stop shooting, or make 10 passes, or stop dribbling, or go to a sagging 2-3 zone is unfair to my players and not real basketball." If winning is the primary motivation of your programme then I agree.

On the other hand, if the primary motivation is to develop caring, thoughtful, respectful young men (this goal is not limited to Catholic education of course) then I fail to see what can be gained by beating the likes of Parkdale by 90? (I felt bad for the Parkdale team...a small 500+ inner city 60% ESL school against a 1000+ perennial powerhouse from the Burbs.) While this may not fit someone's definition of no mercy it's certainly not mercy enough.

I was far from the only coach/parent/spectator there dismayed by these lob-sided results.

I can tell you from the experience of losing to Vaughn 111-47 in the finals of their tournament in their gym that my players were not unaffected by such a defeat. I was puzzled by the host coach's decision to continue to pour it on while my bench was in for most of the second half. Perhaps he was caught up in the exciting (hostile) atmosphere of the home crowd hopping with excitement at a 100+ score? Or maybe I am to believe they stood to improve by using my bench as a dummy defense practice squad...who knows. (I must say that the players never taunted, show-boated or otherwise rubbed it in which was nice to see.)

Of course there are those who will continue to hammer weaker teams because "they have work to do" or "this is the real world of basketball" and if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen, but I would like to think that the majority of coaches and players are more interested in the integrity of the game and the developing psyches of the young men we are responsible for.

Thank you Dunbarton. I don't think enough coaches are speaking out against lopsided scores.

To me, it's obvious that some coaches have a different agenda, and, sometimes, it's at the expense of another team. It seems like it's gotten worse this season. As you said, players ARE affected by lopsided scores - how couldn't they be?

I'm still curious as to what strategies Notre Dame used against Parkdale, to keep the margin to at less than 60. I mean, they were obviously the best team in their group that day, but only beat Parkdale by less than 60. Still a big margin, but you can see that the attempt was there.
