Rockers destroy Black Sharks

Jul 02, 2013 Sports

 

 

Smythfield Rockers Basketball Club of New Amsterdam continued their excellent showing on the Basketball court when they demolished Fyrish Black Sharks 48-40 to end their round of matches as the only unbeaten team when play in the ongoing Berbice Basketball Association (BBA) First Division, Top Six Mackeson competition, continued on Sunday at the Vryman’s Erven Basket Ball Court in New Amsterdam.
The tournament, which is being sponsored by Beverage giants Ansa McAl Guyana Limited, saw Smythfield Rockers exposing some new players to give them valuable time on court.
However, after a slow start the situation was the same as the Rockers eventually found their range and started to smother the Sharks who were left drifting away at 26-17 at half time. The situation did not change much for the rest of the game as the Rockers moved in for the kill and conquered the tame Black Sharks.
Michael Bowen was in good form as he led the way for the Rockers with a game high 20 points. Linden Joseph and Desi Douglas squeezed in nine points apiece for the Black Sharks.
The competition continues on Sunday when the seasoned New Amsterdam Warriors and the up and coming Canje Knights battle for top honours in a game to qualify for the next phase. (Samuel Whyte)
