First Quarter
Lopsided play and flat play by Tyee allowed Foster to come out to a 18-9 game. Before the game, Tyee's assistant AD told the Tyee team that they shouldnt be scared cause "they would get beaten." This seemed to deflate the Tyee teams feelings and it showed in the first quarter.
Second Quarter
Tyee stayed slow and started to press Foster, however Foster matched Tyee's press and took a 39-17 lead.
Third Quarter
Tyee came out better, but at the end of the 3rd, the referees called out a lopsided amount of fouls against them and allowed Foster to jump to a 60-35 lead.
Fourth Quarter
No help from the refs as they allowed Foster to reach over the back and consistent hand checking that didnt let Tyee get into any rhythm. Adding flat play sealed the loss for Tyee
