The Georgetown Amateur Basketball Association’s (GABA) annual 1st, 2nd and Under-23 divisions knockout tournament continued Wednesday night at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall (CASH) with two games.
In the feature clash, Plaisance Guardians Basketball Club (PGBC), that had won each of their first round matches in all three divisions, suffered their first loss via a narrow 70-69 margin at the hands of Nets in first division action.
The game was physical and keenly contested as the tussle for the lead went back and forth throughout the contest. Trenton Westford (16 points) and Nikolai Smith (11) had game leading performance but Nets’ Ifill Joel (14 points) and Hodiyah Stewart (10) coupled with their team’s fighting spirit, proved too much for Guardians to handle.
Bounty Colts maintained their perfect record in all three divisions after making light work of University of Guyana Trojans 51-41 in a 2nd division game. Errol Olsen topped scored for the winners with 11 points while Trojan’s Jabari Joseph scored the game high 13.
This tournament has come at an opportune time as the association teams will look to fine tune their preparations for the next month’s National Club Championships being dubbed ‘Road to Mecca V’ which would be followed by the Caribbean Basketball Championships (CBC) in Suriname this June.
