CVBL: Brooklyn 109, Orlando 101
Brooklyn beat Orlando today in a 109-101 game that was close the whole way. For much of the game, it looked like Orlando would be able to pull off the win, thanks in large part to an outstanding performance by Archie. But the tide finally turned in the end, with Brooklyn star Owens leading his team to victory.
"Definitely a great game," said Brooklyn coach Bob after the game. "The fans got their money's worth out of it, and both teams put up a good fight. We're just glad that we were able to finish strong and get the W. Owens was a big part of that, and I don't think we'd have won without his efforts."
Brooklyn was led by Owens (29 points, 6 boards, 6 assists, a steal, 2 blocks), Jeanlouis (18 points, 18 boards, 2 assists, a block), Hargrove (14 points, 11 boards, 2 assists, 2 blocks). Orlando was led by Archie (6 points, 2 steals), Small (12 points, 13 boards, 1 assists, a steal), Mack (17 points, 2 steals).
