Ouch , was he quadruple teamed ? If so , was his teammates throwing the ball in the wrong basket ? (Jk) Seems weird just 4 points , but the other guys must have played some stellar defense

UNBELIEVABLE

McEachern is a top 10 team and has a 2020 5 star PG (Sharife Cooper) and a top 100 2019 player Isaac Okoro (who signed with Auburn). Okoro is supposed to be known as a really good defensive player. I haven't seen any detailed recaps of the game but I suspect it was a lot of Okoro with just good help defense when needed. I think Watford also had 2 early fouls but can't find where I saw that.

Someone made a good point that Watford may have been exhausted from his effort against IMG the night before while McEachern was rested. Probably had an impact as well.

In high school I think it’s easy to shut down one guy, no matter how good he is. I’m assuming they denied Watford the ball. Can’t score if you never get the ball. I’d like to know how many shots Watford got.

1-7 from the field

Have you seen Watford’s teammates? It’s a bunch of 6’0” tall white kids. Opponent must have taken him out of game.
