The Linden Technical Institute (LTI) defeated Wisburg Secondary 51 – 15 to keep their unbeaten record intact while Mackenzie High School outclassed New Silvercity Secondary 53 – 22 to secure their first win, when the 2012 Victory Valley Royals School’s Basketball Championships continued on Friday last.
Playing at the Mackenzie Sports Club Hard Court, Wisburg were no match for LTI who though playing without their star, Linden Fraser, were still able to comfortably walk away with the win.
However, their display in the game was undesirable and it was reflected in the scores. At half time, LTI led their opponents by 12 points but the scoreboard only read 17 – 5.
Fraser is the team’s leading scorer and tournament’s leading defensive player and the junior national power forward presence was certainly missed with LTI shooting terribly from the floor.
Akeem Primo led all scorers with 15 points, while Stanley McIntosh and Joel Webster each netted 11 points.
For Wisburg Secondary, both Gavin Gasper and Akeem Rivers shot in six points to be their side’s top scorers.
Meanwhile, in the second game of the planned double header, Parish Cadogan continues to impress as the National High Jump record holder poured in a game high 19 points to lead MHS to an impressive win in their first match of the tournament.
Isaiah Alphonso was MHS’ next prime scorer with 14 points as they handed New Silvercity their second loss in as many matches.
Marlon Alexander and Raydon Wilson scored eight points apiece for New Silvercity who will now play Linden Foundation Secondary in the opening game tomorrow at 14 hours 30.
In Game two MHS will hunt their second win of the tournament when they battle Wisburg Secondary.
