Palmetto Classic
AC Flora vs Hammond

Day 3 at the Palmetto Classic is here and with it we have 6 more games on tap. Game 4 on the day gives us AC Flora vs Hammond. Flora has dropped 2 close ones here by a combined 7 points so they would be looking to get out of here with a win. Hammond got blitzed last night by Blythewood so they would be looking to get right on day 3 and get out of this even with a 2-1 record.
From the start, this looked like a turbocharged game as both teams came out looking to run. The fast pace never let up as the two teams would go up and down on the way to a 34-27 half (AC Flora up). The lead would grow to 50-39 for Flora in the 3rd and they would hold on to the end for the win. Final in this one is 63-53 AC Flora.

Players of note:

AC Flora:

Zach Foulks, 6'2 2018 G ' Slender shooter had 8 early hitting 2 from downtown to help the team to an early lead. (23p/2r)

 

 

 

 

 

 

RJ Mobley, 6'4 2019 G ' Showed out all week long with his athletic ability. The kid has bounce for days and explodes off the floor. More athlete than polished player at this point but as his game grows to match his physical gifts, he will impress. (6p/1r/2a/2 blocks)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hammond:

Lucas Pricket, 6'5 2018 F ' Active forward attacked every time he got the chance. Plus motor and nose for the ball leads to production. (25p/9r/2a/1 block)
