Horns Versus 2-3 Zone

I have an interesting team...small, quick, and aggressive. Our 5s are learning to put the ball on the floor and create. 

Here are some actions they 'developed' yesterday. They had never tried to run 'horns' against zone. The put up 31 points in the second half, which is a lot for 7th-grade girls. 

1 entered to our 5, who faced up and attacked. One time she got directly to the basket but missed the layup. Our 3s shoot okay which forces X3 out. On a couple of possessions 3 cut behind X3 for a pass and basket attack and got fouled. 

We're not great at ball reversal, yet. But 5 is a willing passer and that should set up flare screen action for 1 (off 4), 5 also is developing a decent mid-range shot, and our 2s will be open on the weak side.
