Ravens predict conventional win

Dec 11, 2008 Sports

By Edison Jefford
Perhaps the only hindrance that keeps Courts Pacesetters from undoubtedly claiming the number one club status in Georgetown, Dyna’s Ravens are adamant that their success ratio against them will prevail on Sunday.

Ravens are expected to challenge Pacesetters at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall in the inaugural Accomplished Entertainment Basketball and Miss Accomplished Fashion Show that is scheduled to begin at 7pm.

Despite the inclement weather, which has affected Ravens’ practice, Head Coach Lugard Mohan told Kaieteur Sport yesterday that Ravens have a special game balm that always soothe Pacesetters into defeat.

“My confidence against Pacesetters is like 75 percent to 25. Some teams just have a feel for others and I believe we have that feel for Pacesetters,” Mohan said, adding that his players will perform despite practice woes.

The top Georgetown team was forced to use an outdoor court in Campbellville after they were relocated from the indoor Sports Hall for Carifesta. The outdoor practice levels the playing field between them and Pacesetters.

“Weather is keeping us back and its Christmas so lots of the guys are busy; we are not getting the turnout at practice but I have the confidence that the guys will come prepared to play on Sunday,” Mohan stated
According to Mohan, the lack of practice has not affected the team’s chemistry, which is one of the elements they will depend on in Sunday’s game. He said chemistry has Ravens unbeaten in the current Georgetown League.

The winner of the feature male game will collect $100,000 and a trophy while a Linden combined female team is expected to take on a Georgetown compilation for a $50,000 purse in a supporting encounter.

In addition, the winner of the newly introduced 20/20 competition gets a trophy and a gift voucher. This is in an individual event between three players and the winner must score six three–pointers and two points to win.
