Key to the Game:

•Compete for all 4 quarters

So you've finally proven you can go up by double digits, now it's time to prove you can stay up by double digits. Don't compete for the first half of the game then let up, keep your foot on the gas against a team that allows opponents to score 110.4 points on average.
