That bumps the double points in the relays up more. You can score 18 points in a relay to what used to be 14.

If we could get an upset in the 400-yard freestyle relay, we could have a shot.

That has been a weakness for us for a while, overall team defense. We only score about 54 points a game, so we have to keep games in the high 40s and once in a while in the low 50s. We're just not that good defensively.

We focused our better individuals in the relays to get some points, and that really helped us out. Our relay teams did very well.

A few points here and a few points there and the score could have been 5-4 for Iowa Falls-Alden/Hampton-Dumont.

The easiest way is to score points, but when you don't do that, there are other things you can do. Hustle plays like the tip-in or offensive rebounds on missed free throws, plays like that can make a difference, and they did for us this afternoon.
