OHATCHEE – Brad Hood liked a lot of what he saw Tuesday night in Pleasant Valley’s 41-37 victory over Ohatchee.
The pace wasn’t necessarily the way Hood traditionally likes to play, but the PV coach liked what he saw out of a new approach to offense, his long-range shooters and even the defense the Raiders played.
And he was getting to share it all with his dad, who was watching his son coach for the first time. It was so much fun, Hood’s dad said he planned to return Friday for the Lady Raiders’ game with Ragland.
“There were a lot of good things out there I saw,” Hood said.
Shooters Gracie Hood and Marlie Wright flourished in the Lady Raiders’ new 5-out dribble drive offense. They parked in the corner and hit five 3-pointers between them. Hood had three of all nine of her points. Wright had two for all her six points.
“(Macey) Roper was not feeling well so I started two shooters,” Brad Hood said. “We’ve worked on this for a while and knew this was an opportunity to do something different. I know Bryant (Ginn, Ohatchee’s coach) is always looking at film and this was something he hasn’t seen before.”
Rylee Haynes led PV with 14 points. Karmyn Sparks had two points and eight rebounds. The Lady Raiders were so controlled in their offensive approach they had several fouls to give down the stretch as the Lady Indians tried to come back.
The Lady Raiders’ man defense held Ohatchee’s two top scorers, Tori Vice and Jorda Crook, to eight and 12 points, respectively. Crook had nine rebounds.
