Lake Travis left a puddle inside the Snake Pit when they made it rain from downtown, splashing 12-16 from deep in a 65-57 win over San Marcos on Tuesday.
The Cavaliers hit shots whether a hand was in their faces or falling down from the right corner. The marksmanship of the visitors gave them a 21-point advantage in the 3-point department, outshooting San Marcos (8-10, 6-7 disrict) 12-5 from deep. To put it in perspective, Lake Travis (14-6, 9-4) hit seven 3s in the first half while only making six two-point field goals, giving them the 35-24 advantage at half.
“I mean they hit a lot of shots. They shot the ball pretty well. We had opportunities, but just the little things, man — blocking out. You know, it’s just, things that we have to figure out and get better at and eventually they’ll get it,” head coach Steven Pinchback said. “I remind myself that they’re young, but eventually they’re gonna figure it out. Hats off to coach (Cavaliers head coach) Clint (Baty), he does a good job over there.”
