The zone was less complex than many I have seen in High School. Yes, we got killed on the boards, but at least a few times I watched our guys occupy all three key rebounding spots, left hoop, right hoop and front hoop, and still fail to get the rebound. It tells me that it's more than just boxing out, it's anticipating and moving quickly to the ball. It's also about putting a body on people, and holding or expanding your rebounding "neighborhood" when the ball goes up. I think we had position many times, but got pushed under the basket; which is just about being more physical. The refs really called almost nothing in this game; so the more aggressive team was going to win most of those battles.
