Pretty sloppy game so far, was hoping he was able to make some 3 point shots. I really like his length.

The poor shooting and turnovers (22) continued for Manual until it was too late, and they lost in the Class 2A state semifinal.
Final score Chicago Dyett 54 Peoria Manual 50 - https://stats.statbroadcast.com/broadcast/?id=585435

Dietrich Richardson 17 points and 14 rebounds for the Rams.

In the State 2A Third Place game, Manual again plays poorly and they lose to Chicago Christ The King HS, 55-44
Manual did get called for a lot of fouls, with two players, including Dietrich Richardson fouling out.
Manual was only 3-20 from 3-pt, Richardson had 12 pts, 8 reb.

Manual was never really out of the game - and after 3 quarters the game was tied 40-40, but Manual
was only 1-13 shooting in the 4th quarter, they just couldn't cut into the lead.
