Game 2: Team Force edges out a sputtering Elkton Blazers, 43-35


Team Force bounces back from an opening day loss to edge out a sputtering Elkton Blazers, 43-35.

The Force led by top-scoring Ferdinand Mendoza (17 pts.) and diminutive DJern Bacal (14 pts.) played heads-up basketball by fishing crucial fouls against the Blazers' top gun, Jim Reynolds. The first half was a tight contest until Mendoza and Bacal waxed hot in the second half to lead Team Force to victory.

Defense was another key factor for Team Force, which forced the Blazers to numerous turn-overs. In the battle of the board, Team Force outgunned the Blazers, 11-3 to control the ballgame in the second half.

The Blazers attempted a comeback behind Jim Reynolds and Sonny "The Assassin" Dela Torre, both contributing 9 points a piece until Reynolds fould out in the closing minutes of the the game.

The win put team Force in a 6-way tie with 1-1 score card. After quotient ratings kicked in, the Force is 4th in division rackings and 9th over-all. The Blazers 2nd loss in a row puts them at the bottom of both division and over-all rankings.

my kudos to the sports committee for a great job!

Naka Tayo C. Manoy Jr sabi...Fan ako ng Blazzers at alam ko na dumidilim muna bago dumating ang bagyo...ang mga talo ng Blazers at mga komento ng bayan ay madilim pero na-aamoy ko na, na sa darating na mga laro ng Blazers laban sa GK, TFC, Dragon ay babagyo na at uulan ng puntos laban sa mga kalaban ng Blazers...sori na lang sa mga natitirang kalaban at sa darating na kalaban sa playoffs hanggang finals at pati sa one-day contest...N.K.C. Manoy, Jr ng San Carlos City Dumagiti

hay nakuuuuu!!!!!
kailan kaya magiging complete yun lineup ng blazer.
I like GK but this Sat, I might go with Elkton.
I heard 2 gunners from GK will be out while Elkton players will be coming for a vengeance .

That's gonna be a pretty good upset.

MONDAY's headline.........

ELKTON won against GK!!!!!

Goodluck, Sonny the "Maasim" !!

To Naka Tayo C. Manoy Jr. dahil kay Bay A. Gra

sabi mo:
"alam ko na dumidilim muna bago dumating ang bagyo...ang mga talo ng Blazers at mga komento ng bayan ay madilim pero na-aamoy ko na"

ang sagot ko sa iyo, kaibigan:
