At least the coach pulled the starters... IN THE SECOND HALF?!?!? :roll:

EARLSBORO, Okla. (AP) - The Hanna High School basketball team can take some consolation: It didn't get shut out.

It did, however, lose 112-2 on Friday night to Earlsboro.

"It was embarrassing to watch," Earlsboro coach Jim Walling told The Oklahoman. "But you can't just tell your kids not to score. I've been coaching 27 years and have never been involved in something like this."

The Wildcats led 42-0 after one quarter and 73-2 at halftime. Walling pulled his starters in the second half, and game officials kept a running clock, stopping it only for free throws.

Each player on Earlsboro's 10-man boys' roster scored. Seven players finished in double figures.
It's your world, I'm just living in it! :pirate:

At least he waited until the second half to pull his starters... :roll: :roll:

Never can be too sure with a 71 point lead...
