Game of the Week –Ninja vs. Ullico (48-45 in OT)
Well, the undefeated Ninja was supposed to breeze to the Finals, but a resurgent Ullico had them on the ropes and actually should have won this game! A late and ill-advised foul with 6 seconds left put L. Hay on the line, and with pressure on, nailed the shots! “I was sort of shell-shocked to see us down early, and struggling to come back,” Hay explained. “But hats off to Ullico for taking us to the absolute limit,” he added.
Legend of the Week –Jeff Ford (HoundDogs)
Ford had a monster game with 31 big points to ease his HoundDogs into the Finals! “You know, this team is star-studded with the likes of Tyson, Rucker, and Tanenbaum, so I am honored to finally get my due!” he explained. “I’m still mad about him not naming me in his quote,” explained the HoundDog head coach John Boneta.
