WAXAHACHIE - It was a very slow start for both teams when Ennis traveled up to
play Waxahachie last Tuesday evening. Too much passing the ball back and forth
instead of shooting led to turnovers on both sides. At intermission, Wax-ahachie
led 24-15 and continued to dominate in the second half of play. Ennis showed
good defense around the basket keeping Waxahachie from making several shots,
however, they lacked in ball control and allowed Waxahachie's hard-fighting
defense to outright dribble the ball away from them. After three periods,
Waxahachie had increased their lead to 35-19.
Even though Waxahachie hardly set-up to make shots, they fought harder to get or
keep the ball thereby sliding past Ennis, 46-30.
