PFOL 4 Week 1 Recap

Team 1 - 56
Team 2 - 50

Despite a monster game from Edmound Elzy team 2 couldn't pull out a victory over team 1 on Wednesday afternoon. Elzy scored 38 points and grabbed 9 rebounds but his team failed to come up with the win. Team 1 who played without star John Griffin in the first half used a late game run to seal the victory. Jason Rost scored 18 points and grabbed 6 rebounds for Team 1.

When asked why he didn't play in the first half, Team 1's John Griffin said, "I am going to be the "Closer" for our team this year. Just like in baseball, they bring in the closer in the 9th inning to lock up the game. That is the role I am going to play this year. I might only play about 5 minutes a game".


Team 4 - 50
Team 3 - 46

Team 3 only got 5 points from their star guard Grant Gibson, but still hung around late into the game with the help of 5 straight missed free throws by Team 4 in the final 50 seconds.

Richie Smith scored 15 points including several deep 3 point shots. Vance Catlin chipped in with 12 points and 10 rebounds.

Troy Brokl couldn't help but voice his frustrations in the locker after the game. "If they are going to get every call all year then this season is going to be a joke". The league is determining whether or not Brokl will be fined for his comments towards the officiating.
