      Elm Creek 56. TC1 51

         In a close struggle TC1 took a 10 point lead with about 9 minutes to go.  Elm Creek stepped up the defensive pressure and caught up, with the score tied and TC1 in possession came the play of the game.  as The center for TC1 was looking over the court standing dribbling behind him, the EC defender gambled jumped superman style to the side reached around and tipped the ball free, he jumped to his feet grabbed the ball, and with 3 defenders close on his heals did a layup- and was fouled,  he made the and one free throw, and EC made the free throws to win by 5.
     Great game.

In an upset Plymouth upset #2 Shingle Creek 53-50
Trailing by 10 with 2 minutes to go SC employed a hack a Shaquille strategy  fouling away from the ball sending  a free thrower to the line, who missed, using that strategy they closed to within 1 with 10 seconds to go, then the play of the game, when the strategy back fired. Plymouth was passing the ball in on the right side, a Shingle Creek  player was intentionally fouling a Plymouth player on the left side, the foul was called just as SC intercepted the ball on the right. Plymouth made the two free throws with one second to go.  great game.
