WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 21, 2009 NEWS-LEADER / FERNANDINA BEACH, FLORIDA Hornets prevail, topple Pirates 68-61 BETH JONES News-Leader
The Pirates hadn’t lost to a county foe in more than 25 straight games. That reign came to an end Friday night in Yulee. The Hornets beat the Pirates 68-61, a first for the new Yulee High School. “I give Coach (Don) Burton and Yulee a ton of credit,” said Matt Schreiber, head boys basketball coach at Fernandina Beach High School. “They were obviously very prepared and ready for that game. It looks like they’ve worked real hard and bought into what he wants them to do. You could tell from the start it was a game that was important to them and they were going to do everything possible (to win). Our effort was there, but maybe in some earlier games, things have come to us a little too easy.” The Pirates struggled from the perimeter, making just three of 30 three-pointers. “We were 10 percent where we’ve been shooting 35 percent from,” Schreiber said. “I think a lot of those shots were either rushed or forced. We needed to be willing to make an extra pass and it just didn’t seem like we wanted to do that.” Yulee led 10-9 after a quarter and 33-22 at halftime. Both teams put 16 points on the scoreboard in the third quarter and FBHS outscored Yulee 23-19 in the fourth. “Every time we might be getting right back into it, they would just make an incredible shot or some type of play that would stop our momen- PHOTOS BY BETH JONES/NEWS-LEADER tum,” Schreiber said. “It was a tough Patrick Garvin, left, led the Pirates with 24 points Friday when they visited the Yulee Hornets.
