True to Form, League Champions

Associated Press - CNN Newsline

It was only a make up game, postponed from earlier in the league. But it was a game that would determine overall first place and league champions. It was a game where the underdog was not going to go away easy and in fact put up an admirable fight for the first six minutes of the first quarter. It was a game were dominance of the boards and defensive tactics would prove to be the unraveling of one team and victory for the other. Composure and player skills would be key ingredients, and the Tazers took command of both. The first six minutes left little to the imagination as A-train took the opening tip-off, scored a direct three point shot and continued to push under the basket. With repetitive substitutions and another three point shot, A-train was not going down without a fight. But the Tazers did not back down and with two key three point shots by Nick Schindler and Mitchell Johnson, the Tazers were back in the game. And it was only 5:35 into the first quarter.

Key man to man defense from Travis Devashrayee, Alex Proctor and Brayden Monsen on the front line left A-train flustered. Post play by Dayon Goodman, Jaren Jones and Josh Hogan could not be stopped. Enoch Lotuleulei joined the team after a successful football season just in time to add to the Tazers tough defensive line. His drives up the lane were unstoppable by A-train. After a come from behind first quarter, including some nail biting on the bench, the Tazers took the lead, retained their composure and began to penetrate. A-train could not match the experience of the Tazers and when it was all said and done, the Tazers kept their form. Undefeated championship form, that is, and a 51 to 25 victory. (Coach's note: Thanks to Kelsey for joining us on the bench in this important game and cheering the team on. We appreciated her 'high-fives' and most of all her smile.)
