Team 4 - 46
Team 1 - 45
Team 1 suffered a devasting loss at the hands of Pat Sullivan on an unbelieavable half court shot at the buzzer. With 4.9 seconds left in the game and down by 2 points, Sullivan caught a pass just inside the half court line. He was immediatly double teamed but managed to get the shot off just before time expired and lifted his team to a 46-45 victory. There was some debate wheter or not Sullivan traveled on the play.
"Regardless if he traveled or not, we didn't call it and he made an amazing shot" said Alan Mowrey - "you have to give him credit, if we would have made our free throws, we wouldn't have been in that at situation". Team 1 missed 3 free throws in the last 45 seconds of play to setup the heroic shot. Sullivan ended the game with 15 points. Mowrey scored 21 but saw his team drop to 0-2.
Chris Evans earned player of the week honors by holding All Star guard Richie Smith scoreless. "I guarantee that will never happen again, we will run some plays to get Richie going. If he doesn't score then we won't win many games" said Mowrey.
Team 3 - 36
Team 2 - 31
Team 3 pulled out a 5 point 36-31 victory over Team 2 in a match up that saw an amazing 43 fouls and a combined 14 free throws. Team 3 hit their free throws down the stretch to improve their record to 2-0. The league's leading scorer, Jhared Simpson's scored 13 points and pulled down 10 rebounds for team 3. Edmound Elzy scored 17 points for team 2 but got very little help from the rest of his team. Team 2 is the league's lowest scoring team at 33.5 points per game.
Guard Zach Bonvillian expressed his frustration to the League Commissioner complaining that teams are fouling too much. "Any time you get a free path to the basket, they would foul us instead of giving up a layup". Current league rules do not award free throws to non shooting fouls unless the foul occurs in the last minute of each half. Bonvillin will not be fined for his comments.
