Deemer's Dream Team advances to the PFOL Finals

Indianapolis - Tuesday's night semifinal game between Abusement Park and Deemer's Dream Team came down to wire. But in the end, Abusement Park failed to come up with the big shots down the stretch while Deemer's Dream hit shots when it counted. Deemer's Dream Team advances to the PFOL finals by hanging on to a 43-42 win.


Down by 1 point with less than a minute left, Jake Vernon found himself with the ball. Without even thinking about his current 0-14 shooting slump in the game, Vernon launched a three point shot over Dave Neff. Much like many of Vernon's previous shots, the ball didn't hit the rim. The only difference with this shot was it went through the rim and hit nothing but net. That shot ended up being the game winning shot.




Abusement Park had a couple of chances to either tie the game or take the lead late in the game. Marcus Hall missed a game tying free throw with 50 seconds left, Alex Montanago air balled a wide open 3-pointer with 18 seconds left, and Dave Neff misses a running layup at the buzzer.





Deemer's Dream will have it's hands full when they face the high powered offense of Brute Force who led the league in team scoring and put up 81 points last week. "43 points? Please, we had 43 at halftime in our last game. They better figure out a way to score more points or else it's gonna get ugly quick", said Jason McGuinness.
