Labette sends Midland College into elimination game today
By Oscar LeRoy
Sports Writer
SALINA, Kan. =97 Labette (Kan.) Community =
College coach=20
Jaime Green said she=92s got a bunch of fighters on her team. And with =
the way the=20
Lady Cardinals have been knocking off top-seeded teams during the NJCAA =
National=20
Tournament, it=92s easy to see why she thinks that.
No. 11 seed = Labette not=20 only delivered a big blow early but the Lady Cardinals out-shot, = out-hustled and=20 out-played No. 3-seed Midland College in a 68-58 victory in a = quarterfinal game=20 Wednesday night at the Bicentennial Center.
=93They played much = better than=20 we did,=94 MC coach Ron Jones said. =93The fact that we only lost by = about five=20 possessions really says a lot to me about how hard we fought. We just = didn=92t=20 play well. (Labette) got too many second chance opportunities, and we = missed too=20 many easy shots and too many layups. It hurts because (the Lady Chaps) = have done=20 a lot of great things this year, but we did not play well enough to beat = a good=20 team.=94
Green said her team is using the underdog role in this = tournament=20 to its advantage.
=93I told our kids that there are a lot more = talented=20 teams here but if we can bring great energy, great focus, control the = boards and=20 play our butts off on defense, we=92re going to put ourselves in a = position to be=20 successful,=94 said the 29-year-old coach, whose team beat No. 6 = Northern=20 Oklahoma-Enid on Tuesday. =93We know we=92re going to have to out-work = better teams=20 in order to get to the top. I wouldn=92t want it any other way. It=92s = sweeter when=20 you have to earn what you get in life.=94
Midland=20 College (31-4) was stunned early when Labette went on a 10-0 run to = begin the=20 game. After that initial onslaught by Labette (33-3), it was hard for = the Lady=20 Chaparrals to recover. As a result the Lady Chaps will have to play a = winner=92s=20 bracket elimination game at 4 p.m. today against No. 10 Monroe (N.Y.) = College=20 and the best MC can finish is fifth place in the = tournament.
Labette,=20 making its first ever appearance at the tournament, advances to = Friday=92s 6 p.m.=20 semifinal game against No. 2 seed Gulf Coast Community College as the = Lady=20 Cardinals look to slay another Goliath in this tourney.
MC=92s = defense,=20 which had been good all year, couldn=92t find an answer against a very = athletic=20 team. Unlike the day before in a 75-62 victory over Shelton State (Ala.) = Community College, the Lady Cardinals penetrated inside the paint and = made=20 layups over the outstretched arms of the Lady Chaps.
=93You = can=92t give up=20 layups,=94 Jones said. =93We gave up a lot of them. And then we = compounded the fact=20 that we missed several layups. That was just too much to=20 overcome.=94
Labette finished the game shooting 48 percent for = the game,=20 including 57 percent in the first half when the Lady Cardinals took a = 35-28=20 advantage at the intermission.
The Lady Chaps not only shot 39.3 = percent=20 but turned the ball over 17 times and got beat on the boards 38-31. = Also, MC=20 could never find a consistent go-to scorer as only Jessi Cowden finished = in=20 double figures with 12 points thanks to four 3-pointers.
Even = after=20 trailing for most of the game, MC twice cut the Cardinal lead to five in = the=20 second half.
But Labette always seemed to answer with one of = their big=20 two scorers =97 Satoria Bell (21 points) or Kellindra Zackery (16=20 points).
MC had a golden opportunity to pull even closer to = Labette with=20 a little more than a minute remaining in the game and the Cardinals = leading=20 61-56. MC forced a turnover with its fullcourt press but a mid-range = jumper by=20 Erika Warren bounced off the front of the rim and into the hands of = Bell, who=20 was then fouled by Warren. Bell made both free throws to extend the lead = to=20 63-56 with 1:04 remaining in the game and essentially end any hopes of a = Lady=20 Chap comeback.
=93I=92ve got a lot of sophomores on this team who = have played=20 a lot of ball before they got to me. They sure make me look good,=94 = Green said.=20 =93I=92ve never had a team that keeps their composure as well as this = team=20 does.=94
MC NOTES: Midland College is now 3-2 in = national=20 quarterfinal games. ...Wednesday=92s meeting with Labette CC was the = first ever=20 meeting between the two schools. ...MC is now 10-5 lifetime against = Kansas=20 schools and 13-5 in five national tournament appearances. ...If MC wins = on=20 Thursday, it will get a day off on Friday before playing for 5th place = at 3 p.m.=20 Saturday. MC has never finished lower than fifth in four previous=20 appearances.
