Round 1 & 2

Weekend Prevue: September 24, 2009


The final game in Round One of the Western Basketball Association's Female Basketball League at the Mobay Cricket Club Multipurpose Court will be this Friday at 6:30pm, where the two bottom-of-the-table teams, Mobay Pacers and Naldi Lady Knights will meet each other for the first time.

The game is an uninspiring one on paper; but the team that wins will secure the third sport. Both teams have showed much improvement as the season progressed but are still winless and will hope that they can secure a victory.

Pacers will be depending on Christine Brown and Jody-Ann Grant in possibly their best game of the season last week, pushing the highly rated Lady Avalanche to the limit. While last year's league MVP Shadian Hemmings, Alicia Dawkins and Tione Gowe combined should create several headaches for the Pacers' defence.

In what is undoubtedly the game of the round, the mighty Unique Ballers will go up against second-placed Innercity Lady Avalanche in what should be a cracking contest as second-round action gets underway in the at 8pm, the Trelawny-based Unique Ballers are yet to drop a game in 2009 and, therefore, are the team to beat.

Another clinical performance in round 1 saw the Ballers stave off Lady Avalanche by 22 points, with Tracy-Ann Kelly in sparkling form with 23 points.

For the Lady Avalanche, the 'double-double queen' Ladonna Lamonth and Suzzette Virgo will have to continue their good form from the last two weekends if they should have a chance to upset the champions.

In Men's action on Saturday, league leaders City Knights will be hoping to maintain their unbeaten form when they try to ward off formidable challenge from the Bay City Lions at 5pm.
