IPSHA Basketball – Round 3 Saturday 2 November

Team of the Week: IPSHA Pymble 6

On Saturday 2 November, Pymble 6 played against Roseville College. Coach Zane was impressed by both Madeline Dreverman (Year 5) and Mia Farthing’s (Year 5) defence, with both players applying a lot of pressure and forcing turn-overs. Tessie Guan (Year 5) wins the award for best triple-threat again! Tessie’s ball protection on offence, her pivoting and ripping of the ball, keeping the defence guessing and finding great passes up and down the court set the stage for success.

Katie Shen (Year 5) had a great game attacking to the basket, she was joined by Aryana Naderi (Year 5) and Madeline Dreverman (Year 5) helping her extend Pymble’s lead. In the third quarter, the highlight of the game came from some high-effort offensive rebounding by Caroline Liu (Year 5), who then found Audrey Chen (Year 5) with a great shot, swishing a deep two-pointer from well outside the key. In summary this was an incredible game with clear continued improvement over the last three weeks really paying off.

Congratulations Pymble 6 on another great weekend of IPSHA basketball.
