Baston Jacks - 48
Forecasted Showers – 52
Forecasted Showers ended their season on a winning note and now have some momentum as they head into the playoffs next week. Their 52-48 win over Baston Jacks on Friday was their 3rd win in 4 games and they are one of the hottest teams in the league right now. Despite their recent success, rumors are floating around that there is a fued between Edmound Elzy and Eric Flatt. A source who wished to remain anonymous said he over heard Flatt tell Elzy that he wanted a trade. Flatt said he is “sick of this team and I want out”. A heated verbal exchange then took place behind closed doors. The source said that Flatt was upset because he didn’t get the ball enough. He quotes, “I had Melby on me for 5 straight possessions and I couldn’t get the #@*%ing ball!”
Despite their internal bickering Forecasted Shadows will turn their focus to the reigning PFOL champions, 3-Peat.
Baston Jacks find themselves ending the season on a 3 game losing streak. They hope to regain their mid season form next week as they host the #2 seed Patriot League Bombers.
3-Peat - 59
Patriot League Bombers – 58
Friday’s game between Patriot League Bombers and 3-Peat had the league title on the line. The winner of the game would claim the #1 seed and the PFOL regular season title. The game was close throughout as there were 18 lead changes. Richie Smith gave 3-Peat their final lead on a step back 3 in the corner with 10 seconds left to put his team up 59-58. John Griffin had a look to win the game but the shot clanked off the rim and Stutzman’s flip shot at the buzzer from behind the basket fell short.
3-Peat heads into the playoffs looking for their third Championship in a row. PLB will be heading into the playoffs looking to prove doubters wrong. Of late, many experts are doubting the depth and experience of PLB, calling them very one dimensional.
