Pepsi Sonics, after dropping their only game to Pacesetters, steadily improved their record to 4-1 to assume the second spot in ranking behind the unbeaten Pacesetters following their 59-47 win against Ravens that had a terrible offensive meltdown.
Guard, Jason Squires continued his leadership of the Pepsi team with 13 points with Earl O’ Neil scoring 12 points and Trevor Smith 11 points. Pepsi Sonics now sit behind Pacesetters (4-0) and ahead Ravens (3-1), Nets (3-2) and Colts (2-2) in the latest standing.
Ryan Stephney scored 15 points for Ravens while Rodwell Fortune had 10 points. Ravens have been one of the top teams in Georgetown since leading the last League. The loss will set them in an uphill climb to regain the number one status in the City.
Meanwhile in the first game of the night, a Division III contest, TGH Pacesetters defeated Colts 65-55 to remain unbeaten. Rayon Cummings scored 14 points, Joslyn Crawford and Tariq Cave had 11 each while Jude Weekes scored 10 point for Pacesetters. Evans Johnson led all scoring in game with 20 points for Colts.
