LBL Division 2:
Lithuanian Legends 68
- York Vikings (2) 46

Vikings were travelling to Bradford on Sunday in the hope to make it a 3 game winning streak. With a large number of players unavailable, Vikings only had 6 players for the game to face the undefeated Lithuanian Legends.


Vikings really struggled to start with, unable to make any shots. The 3-2 zone employed also did not work, with players unable to close out on the 3 point line and giving up second chance points. Legends as a result went ahead 14-0. A change in the zone to a 2-3 let to some stops and eventually some of the baskets dropped. The home team took the first quarter 19 - 9.

Things improved in the second quarter. The defence by Vikings kept the Legends scoring lower and despite still struggling to make baskets, both teams tied the 2nd quarter 10 - 10, with a half time score of 29 - 19 for Legends.

Scoring increased in the 2nd half, with both teams going on the fast break. However, the team from York managed to outscore the Bradford team 20 - 17 in the third.

This meant that only 7 points were in it for the final quarter. Vikings however did not manage to maintain the level of play and 4 consecutive turnovers meant 8 points for the Lithuanians to increase the lead. The home team continued to hit basket after basket while Vikings struggled. As a result Legends won the final quarter in dominant fashion scoring 22 points against 7.


Game MVP: Jacob Cosquer
