Rec League Roundup: Week 5

Fiddler On The Hoop – 64

(2-2)

I.C. Balls – 48

(0-5)

Fiddler cruised to their second victory in a row, pulling to .500 on the season. A huge scoring output (20+ points) from Fiddler’s Griffin “Margante” Shrader kept everyone’s favorite 20th-century musical-inspired squad up big for the entirety of the contest. A good shooting night from I.C. Balls’ Cora Bern Klug helped to post the teams second highest scoring output this season.

Twisters – 63

(5-0)

Tate Warriors – 39

(2-2)

The Twisters answered big after questions came up regarding their ability to play to their full abilities for an entire game after last weeks lackluster victory, jumping out to a big lead early. Strong, aggressive team defense for the Twisters launched them to huge 36 – 9 lead at halftime. Bryson Runge poured it in, scoring ten points in a row during a stretch in the second half. The Twisters will try to carry this momentum into their final regular season game, against league rival and fellow unbeaten Backfire next week at 6:00 PM.

The Cherubs – 40

(3-2)

Can’t Score Won’t Score – 36

(1-3)

The Cherubs’ Amir Parker had another show out game this week pushing his team past the ferocious Can’t Score Won’t Score squad. “They gave us a run for our money,” said team captain, Drew Orr, “But we prevailed with no problem.” Duncan Forbes and Jake Parker both had good outings, scoring for a team not known for high scoring outputs. CSWS team enforcer Dominic Balestrieri-Fox was absent from the game.

Backfire – 53

(4-0)

B.Y.O.B. – 30

(2-3)

B.Y.O.B. decided it wasn’t time to bring their own ball, getting wiped all over the court by Backfire in an impressive 4th win for the team. Team chemistry seems to be at an all time high for Backfire, leaving a path of destruction through every game they’ve played. Backfire will need team play to be at it’s best next week when taking on R-League’s other undefeated squad, The Twisters.
