South Lakes Seahawks had their first home game since their loss to rival

Herndon, and the Seahawks were not going to start the season off with two

straight home losses.  Ryan Scott led

South

Lakes

with 25 points and 4 steals, and Chris Holmes had 8 points, 7 assists, and 9

rebounds, which proved to be too much for the visiting Fairfax Rebels. 

           

The game started off slowly, with Keith Wagner scoring the first five

points for the Seahawks.  Ryan Scott

had four points, and the first quarter ended with the Seahawks up 21-15.

           

The second quarter was a quarter full of may three point shots attempted,

and a very ugly start.  The Seahawks

then strung together a 3 pointer by Carlos Guice and a 15-foot jump shot by Ryan

Scott, which forced the Rebels to use a time out. 

The second quarter ended with the score 33-25 in favor of the Seahawks.

           

The third quarter proved to be one of the scariest moments for Seahawks

fans this season, as Ryan Scott got a steal and raced down court to attempt a

dunk.  Scott missed the dunk, but was

fouled, and hit the ground very hard.  The

crowd went silent for the minute he was down, but he was able to stand up under

his own power.  Dennis Lee hit both

free throws for the injured Scott.  The

third quarter ended with the Seahawks leading 54-38.

           

  Aaron Bowls scored five of

his nine points in the first quarter.  Ryan

Scott re-entered the game after getting fouled hard in the third quarter, and

scored two points to give him a team high 25 points. 

The starters were all taken out with about three minutes left in the

game, and the Seahawks got the victory, 72-47.
