1sts
The Cranbrook 1sts where in a loud and intense setting at St Aloysius’ Dalton Hall last Friday night. The 1sts struggled at both end of the floor early in the game. Down by a significant margin at halftime, the Cramnrook 1sts played some solid defence in the second half and steadied the ship. The commitment to compete from the Cranbrook 1sts was unquestionable but eventually their lost 51-71. Cruz Mactavish continues his development with 17 points. Vice-Captain, Noah Doherty scored 8 points; and Hayden Rosen and Oliver Wayne chipped in with 6 points each.

2nds
It was a tough day at the office for the Cranbrook 1sts with St Aloysius slowly building a significant lead then we on a 3-point barrage. The shooting displayed by St Aloysius is extremely rare in 2nds basketball. With the inability to convert on offence and look after the ball, Cranbrook 2nds lost 36-88.

In the Spotlight – 10H
Last game of the day, limited fans in attendance, low on players due to sickness and injury, the 10H played one of the great School basketball games in 10H history. With only five players, the Brookie Ballers took on a ten player Kings roster. The 10H played gritty team basketball. They player together, they played smart and the competed like they were the Boston Celtics in game seven. They amassed an early lead and held off Kings until the last 2 minutes of the game, losing 21-26. Props to Elias Edwards, Riley Hughes, William ‘Marcus’ Smart, Archie Martin and the left-handed dynamo Archer ‘Allan Iverson’ Wong.
