SECONDS BLOW AWAY TORNADOES!

October 10, 2022

THE SECOND GAME OF THE SEASON AND IT WAS WIN NUMBER ONE FOR TROJANS 2 AS THEY BLEW AWAY A STRONG FINISH BY COVENTRY TRONADOES 2 AT HEREWARD COLLEGE TO WIN 66-51.

THE VISITORS WERE LITTLE MORE THAN A BREEZE IN THE OPENING MINUTES AND COULD NOT FIND A WAY TO PENETRATE THEIR HOSTS’ HOOP AS TROJANS MOTORED INTO A 14-1 LEAD.

WHEN THEY DID GET GOING IT WAS LITTLE MORE THAN HUFF WITHOUT THE PUFF AS THE HOME SIDE CASHED IN WITH BABS GURUNG LEADING THE WAY FROM POINT. HE DROPPED IN 14 POINTS AS TROJANS CUT TO A 33-21 HALF -TIME LEAD, BUT THE GAME, DESPITE THE SCORE, WAS ALL ELECTRIC AS BOTH SIDES WENT AT IT 100%.

THE SECOND HALF SAW A SLIGHT FALL FROM GRACE FOR THE HOSTS AND THE GAP REDUCED TO EIGHT BEFORE RAY WU GOT GOING UNDER THE BUCKET AND THE FINAL QUARTER STARTED WITH A TWELVE POINT ADVANTAGE TO TROJANS, AS AUDI GUDLIEKIS (PICTURED) INSPIRED HIS SIDE WITH A STRONG RUNNING GAME

DESPITE TRYING EVERYTHING, TORNADOES COACH JUSTIN HOPKINS COULD NOT STOP THE ROT AND IT BROUGHT A WELL-EARNED VICTORY FOR TROJANS’ COACH BEN LINNETT WITH THE REAL DAMAGE BEING DONE IN THAT FIRST QUARTER.

SCORERS:

GURUNG 20, WU 12, GUDLIEKIS 10, SINGH 7, UBAVICIUS 6, LUMLEY 4, ZEXIAN 3, BARR 2, LINNETT 2.
