(8)Pine Ridge (2-6) vs (9)Deltona Trinity (0-8)
Pine Ridge stormed to a 24 pt halftime lead and played some great basketball. Trinity switched to a zone in the 2nd half, and combined with some hot shooting on their part cut the lead all the way down to 1 late in the 4th, but Pine Ridge managed to hang on for a 4 pt win to advance.
(2)Oviedo (6-2) vs (7)Freedom (3-5)
Oviedo's came out in a zone press and used it with an effective fast break game to outclass Freedom early and often. Oviedo jumped to a 17 pt halftime lead and coasted to a 20-pt win to advance.
(3)Atlantic (5-3) vs (6)Seminole (4-4)
The first game between these 2 physical squads resulted in a defensive struggle and a 3-pt win for Seminole. Round 2 would be another nailbiter with a different result. The first half featured both teams utilizing the fast break and hitting open shots, and Seminole led by 2 at the half thanks to a 30-foot buzzer beater. The game was 38-38 entering the 4th as the pace noticeably slowed. Atlantic switched to a zone defense which ground the Seminole offense to a halt, going scoreless for 5 crucial minutes of the 4th while Atlantic took an 8 pt lead. Seminole hit a few big 3s down the stretch and Atlantic missed quite a few free throws, but hung on 52-48 to advance.

Today's Action @ LMP
(8)Pine Ridge (3-6) vs (1)DeLand (8-0) 5:30pm-- DeLand handled Pine Ridge easily the first time, but Pine Ridge has played better as of late, and DeLand could be missing some football players. Could be interesting between the western Volusia rivals.
(4)Spruce Creek (4-4) vs (5)Lake Mary Prep (4-4) 6:45pm -- Creek defeated LMP a week or two ago with both teams missing some players. Evenly matched sides.
(2)Oviedo (7-2) vs (3)Atlantic (6-3) 8:00pm -- Atlantic spotted Oviedo an early 10 pt lead but came back and won by 7 when they met, but round 2 should be close and exciting, a great matchup.
