SHIELD WIN FOR FIRSTS!
April 25, 2017
DESPITE HAVING FIVE OF THEIR USUAL PLAYERS MISSING, TROJANS 1 HUNG ON TO LIFT THE CHAMPIONSHIP SHIELD FOLLOWING THEIR 64-90 REVERSAL BY ARDEN GRIFFINS.
TREVOR ROBINSON HAD TO CALL UPON MATT BERRY AND AARON MURRAY TO HELP OUT AS GRIFFINS STRENGTHENED THEIR TEAM FROM THE FIRST LEG, AND ALL WENT WELL FOR THE HOME SIDE AS THEY DEFENDED THEIR MASSIVE 99-63 FIRST LEG ADVANTAGE.
GRIFFINS SCORED 12 IN THE LAST MINUTE TO MAKE IT LOOK CLOSER THAN IT WAS BUT AT LEAST IT GAVE THE TIE AN EXCITING FINISH.
