Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Final

Sharks 15 13 10 6 44

Dynamite 8 12 9 13 42

Having just seen Dynamite claw back from a 20 point deficit to come close to Nova we new it would be a tough game added to the fact we faced them earlier in the season and that proved a tough game also.

From Marko’s tip George got the ball and made a nice pass to Dominic who unfortunately was unable to score. Ross was then fouled and made 1 from 2. With some good offensive work baskets were scored by Marko, Paddy, George and Ross the quarter ended 15-8 in the Sharks favour.

The second quarter belonged to Marko and Ross scoring all of the Sharks 13 points. Some really good defensive work by Xavier, caused Dynamite some real problems and offensive work on the ball by Alex, Paddy, Sam VO and Nathaniel helped the Sharks win this quarter.

New to the team was Jake who after only a few training sessions showed good promise as he held his own when on court causing problems for Leicester. Sam Baines was doing a good job again on rebounding and fighting for the ball and Joel was as fast as usual getting up court.

The third quarter opened with Jake driving to basket but getting fouled on the way, but he could not convert the 2 shots from the line. Alex then had a nice lay up to get him 2 points with Sam VO hitting a 3 pointer then Dominic getting 2 of his own.

Fourth quarter saw Sam B on the score sheet with another 2 from Dominic and the last 2 of the game going to Ross.
