Can’t Score Won’t Score – 34
I.C. Balls – 21
Possibly the least anticipated rec league game ever, Can’t Score Won’t Score proved they can win a game of sorts in this match up with the girls. In a shootout (miss shots) Can’t Score made their way into the playoffs with this double digit win.
W$D – 64
Fiddler On The Hoop – 36
Fiddler On The Hoop brought shame to it’s supporting community and fans this past Monday when they laid an egg against a refreshed and revamped W$D team. Even with a 20+ point scoring output for G/F Austin Tholen, Fiddler still looked a step slower and 2 shoe sizes smaller than W$D. With the Return of Juma Burnett and Joe Scott W$D just looked like the more dominant and physical team throughout the game.
The Cherubs – 45
Tate Warriors – 42
“Most intense game of my life,” Drew Orr was heard saying after the game Monday. A neck and neck battle throughout this game was an instant classic. With good games from Luke Milefchik and Drew Orr, The Cherubs were able to pull out again against this young athletic Tate team. Last years champions are out, who will take the crown?
Backfire – 46
BYOB – 32
With star Collin O’Meara out again for the BYOB squad due to recent knee surgery, Backfire was on a roll in this first round game. With good night from Jens “J-Guap” Dancer and Brady “Stockton” Cotton Backfire had another good showing and made another game worth watching. BYOB has a young athletic roster with a lot of basketball potential, watch out for the comeback next year.
Twisters – 35
Can’t Score Won’t Score – 15
If you’re looking for the action the Twisters always bring to the court, I would not recommend watching any film from this game. This game was quoted by fans as “The Sloppiest Game in Rec League History.” With a total 29 turnovers Can’t Score just couldn’t hold on to the ball and Logan LaFauce did not make a single one of his 13 half-court shots. Despite a poor offensive game for the Twisters, they won, yet again. Can anybody stop them from winning it all?
