Game Report

Thethird day of the tournament, the first game was USA West Coast All Stars (WEST) versus USA California All Stars (CAL).Since both teams are from the US, this was probably a game that both teams wanted to win. Soon after the starting whistle CAL scored their first point.Everyone thought that CAL was going to have possession of the game, but the middle shot made by WEST proved wrong.In the rest of the first quarter both teams continued to score points and ended with CAL’s lead of 3-2. The second quarter WEST scored a point that woke the people there and the game was put back to the starting position.The see-saw game continued and the second quarter ended at 4-5 with still CAL’s lead. The third quarter due to a foul by the CAL’s goalie the flow of the game went to WEST.WEST scored again and finally flipped the game over to 6-5.The third quarter ended with no one knowing who will win the game. The last quarter the balance started to collapse.WEST surged against CAL’s goalie and spread their lead.CAL went on a counter back, but it was too late.They could not stop WEST and the game ended with the sore of 10-6.
