Hoopers proved that they
were more hungrier for a title even if it was just the
Mid Season finals title. They used the final two
quarters of their exciting encounter against arch-rivals
Innercity Avalanche to win 87-83. Omar Bell
followed up his earlier Hoopla performance with a gutsy
25 points, hitting 4 out of six 3 pointers to help guide his
team to victory. He was aptly supported by Ryan 'Tim"
Harrison with a season best performance of 15 points and
10 boards, while captain Andrae Morgan contributed
15 of his own.
Avalanche played well despite the loss, but gave up just
a few easy baskets down the stretch. Turnovers proved
also to be their achilles heel, nonetheless, Adolph
Erskine continued his consistent scoring streak with
a game high 36 points, Cleon Morgan and O'Neil
Clarke added eighteen and twelve points
respectively. Clarke was a beast on the defensive end
with 3 block shots.
