PFOL 7 - Week 3 recap


Indianapolis –

Team 2 improved to 3-0 on the season as they ran all over Team 3 in a 47-39 victory.  Team 2 bolted out to a 10-0 lead and never looked back.  Team 2 was lead by Tamba Samba’s double-double (10 points and 10 rebounds) and Alan Mowrey’s 14 points and 7 rebounds. 

Team 3 was led by Adam Branch’s 14 points and 9 rebounds.  Branch was the only player to shoot over 29% from the field. 

“We are a defensive juggernaut.  We play smash mouth basketball.  I mean, Rob Laycock dove after the ball during the opening tip.  I’ve never seen that happen in my life”, said Alan Mowrey.

Laycock’s stats were adjusted as he was credited with a block shot, but after further review it was determined that he actually blocked a shot attempt by his own player, Alan Mowrey.

Joe English was held scoreless. The effects of over-exposure to the sun during his cruise last week was evident by his play on the court and his sunburnt face.

In the 2nd game, Team 4 got their first victory of the season as they beat Team 1, 65-58.  Team 4 used a balance scoring attack by Glaser, Krol and Trott.  Krol filled up the stat sheet with 16 points, 10 rebounds and  6 assists.  He shot 44% from the field and played excellent defense.  Kyle Krol played like the top tier player that he is known to be.  "He just made everyone around him better, that's what great players do", said teammate Doug Morgan. (Editors note: this over-the-top gushing about Kyle Krol is not in direct response to his tantrum he threw about the harsh comments made about him in Week 2's recap).

Despite dropping to 0-3, Team 1 got solid performances from Greg Smith 26 points and 13 rebounds and Nathan Burger 18 points and 9 rebounds.  Andrew Boehner missed the game with Flu-Like symptoms or what Beohner calls"feeling yucky".

"I don't care about the regular season.  Everyone makes the playoffs, so there is no reason to worry about the regular season.  Playoffs is when the real season starts", said Elzy.

Commissioner Mowrey expressed concerns regarding Elzy's comments.  "That kind of mentality is bad for the league and bad for fans.  Since we don't have any fans yet, I won't worry about it.  But when we do start getting fans, Elzy is going to have to start putting out more of an effort in the regular season for our paying fans".
