CAREY — With his team trailing Carey by 11 points in the second quarter, Buckeye Central girls basketball coach Greg Moore knew exactly what adjustments to make. Moore switched the Bucks’ defense from a 1-3-1 zone to a man to man with a press and used pick and rolls and screens on offense to enable leading scorers Jenna Karl and Courtney Pifher to get more open looks.
