Weekend Prevue:
Round Fourteen
Two Teams Look to Extend Win Streaks
On Tuesday night Hoopers rushed to
their third straight win in the Western Basketball
Association Lucozade Sport Men's Championships on after
bouncing Railway Tigers 69-57 in the lone game at the
Montego Bay Cricket Club court.
Detroy Jewery assuming the role as the go-to guy
scored a game-high 18 points for Tigers, who got off to
a fast start, but his team still lost the first stanza
22-14 to a revitalized opponent. Anthony Christie
contributed with 13 points, 4 rebounds along with three
assists. Tammy Davis was big on defense with
seven blocks and a 11 points/10 rebounds double-double
performance.
Both
teams played equally well in the second stanza; managed
just twelve points a piece in the second quarter, but
Hoopers put a strangle hold on the game to lead 53-41 at
the end of the third.
 Andrae Morgan leg his squad with 14 points, while
Marlon Comrie for his second straight game scored
in double figures. He made 13 points and grabbed eight
boards. Kemar Dean 10 points rounded out the
scoring.
Action will continue this Saturday with two games.
These games will determine the placement of the four
remaining team
who will contest the all important playoff round.
At 5pm, Railway Tigers (4-7) will face
Innercity Avalanche (8-3) in the curtain raiser with hopes
of brushing off their previous loss to Hoopers on
Tuesday.
Next league leaders Granville Jaguars will hope to
maintain their eight game win streak when they do battle
with the veteran Sav-La-Mar Hawks at 7pm.
Current standings are available
