A Look Into The Class 7A Final 4: Game 1

The field is set, and we are going to be in for an exciting #Final4 as four powerhouse teams converge in Birmingham, AL.   March 3, 2022 @ 10:30am   #5-Enterprise vs. #6-Spain Park   This will be a battle of styles, with both teams trying to get the other team to step out of their comfort zone. Spain Park is methodical and will run their sets looking to exploit any undisciplined defenders. They will also look to play inside out with the big man Colin, attempting to control the paint. They will throw the kitchen sink at Enterprise with the multiplicity of defensive concepts they play.   Enterprise will look to make it an uptempo game and use their athleticism to impact both ends of the court. They will come in focused on controlling the paint and the boards.   Keys To Victory:   Spain Park: <ol style="direction: ltr; unicode-bidi: embed; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 16.0pt; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;" type="1"> <li style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle; color: #0e101a;" value="1">They will need to turn their defense into offense. </li> <li style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle; color: #0e101a;">They will need to shoot a good percentage from behind the arc. </li> <li style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle; color: #0e101a;">They will need to push the ball in transition when opportunities are there. </li> </ol>   Enterprise: <ol style="direction: ltr; unicode-bidi: embed; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 16.0pt; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;" type="1"> <li style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle; color: #0e101a;" value="1">They will need to control the boards.

There is nothing that can be more rewarding than Colin finishing his senior campaign than finishing #Final4 week with the state championship. If he can lock down the paint and control the boards, he will give Spain Park a chance to capture the title.   <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/10/PH-Zach-Gray-1.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1311037 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/10/PH-Zach-Gray-1-300x300.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="836588" first="Zach" last="Gray"] (6’6/Shooting Guard/2023)   School: Spain Park HS Instagram: Zach.25.Gray Twitter: @ZachGray2225   It is simple when it comes to Zach, and that is efficiency from behind the arc. With Enterprise desiring to be disruptive on defense, Zach will need to knock down the three to soften up the D. If Zach shows up and get it going, it could be a long night for Enterprise.   <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/PH-Quentin-Hayes.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1374147 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/PH-Quentin-Hayes-300x300.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="725160" first="Quentin" last="Hayes"] (6’2/CG/2022)   School: Enterprise HS Instagram: N/A Twitter: @qhayes22   Q will be the most versatile player on the court in this #Final4 match-up. He is a 6’2 combo guard that can get it done at all levels. He is the leader of this crew and will need to keep his squad poise early and in crunch moments. Enterprise will need a huge night from Q on the offensive end.   <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/PH-Tomar-Hobdy.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1376271 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/PH-Tomar-Hobdy-300x300.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="966172" first="Tomar" last="Hobdy"] (5’10/Guard/2022)   School: Enterprise HS Instagram: dis_boy_fye_ Twitter: N/A   Tomar will play a significant role in this game as he will be the key to the pace of the game. Enterprise will have an excellent chance to advance to the championship game if he can control the pace and force the action in favor of his team.   Who do you think will emerge as the 7A State Champion?
