Gabriel starts and is #24 in red


update - game is 17-17 early in 2nd qtr
Gabriel is a strong 6-6 or 6-7 with a body that looks like Elijah Childs - but he plays more on the perimeter like a big guard
He just hit a 3-pointer and looked very comfortable taking it...

Veritas is missing their top scorer, so they might struggle against the team they are playing. They have some big kids and are a pretty good team.

Veritas takes a 27-23 halftime lead
lot of missed shots...
Gabriel is very athletic - he has no difficulty guarding the 6-10 guy & shutting him down
his FT shots looked good
his name on the overlay was spelled "Stefan"

Gabriel plays point guard when Molinar goes out...\he now has 11 pts midway thru 3rd qtr

[tornado]

Gabriel has done a good job much of the night guarding 6-11 Ole Miss recruit Rodney Howard
Veritas wins 58-54 over Legacy - Gabriel has 15 pts in the 4th qtr,, but I do not know his final totals - he also had a few assists but played the guard position

Memphis East loses 59-58 on a wild 3-pt buzzer beater

Actually, Veritas primary point guard is Ismael Cruz, who did not play tonight. Stephan Gabriel played most of the game as the point guard and looked good. He made a lot of nice passes, though they didn't always lead to baskets. He has a nice outside shot, and looked good at the FT line. I think he had 15 points and several rebounds, and was very effective defending the other team's 6'11" post player who is committed to Ole Miss. And other than a very short breather in the first quarter, I think he played every minute the rest of the way after coming back in.
Veritas wins 58-54.
