Week 7 Results

Anzivino vs Bonaventura
47-24
A bit of a shock to start week 7 off with powerhouse team Bonaventura picking up just their 2nd loss of the season. Will Bordes led the way once again outscoring team Bonaventura on his own with 26 points. This isn't the first time he's strapped team Anzivino to his back and carried them to a win. A possible dark horse candidate for MVP. However the big headline of the game was the no show of star Derek Caruso. If he prioritizes his Zoomba classes over basketball again coach Boaventura could get pretty angry with him.

Strauss vs Cianci
52-25
Team Cianci wasn't able to keep the same energy going after last weeks win and fell to team Strauss. Fordham did the majority of the early scoring for team Strauss and the rest of the team was able to keep the train moving. Team Strauss kept a 10-15 lead for Strauss for the majority of the game, but as team Cianci without a sub began to tire, team Strauss started scoring at will. Unlike most of the other teams in this league, everyone scores a decent amount for team Strauss rather than a one man show.

Mcnamara vs Dzwonek
34-25
It's amazing, it seems like team Dzwonek gets worse by the week. Gotta put this one on the main man Stevie D who considers himself a star, but only scored 4. He's a spray and prey type player only launching the 3 ball and it just wasn't falling today. Mcnamara somehow is 3-4 and has finally got their first win without Castro. This was a classic bottom of the standings battle, a very low scoring affair and Curtis was the only player to break double digits with 15 points. Many people like to joke that team Mcnamara are the worst in the league, but with each win they are slowly gaining more and more respect.

Jarboe vs Kelly
55-53
One of the scrappiest games of the season gave us one of our closer finishes of the season. Two teams each missing one of their stars with Sammy and Brendan injured. Jarboe began on a 12-0 run with the three's raining early, but Kelly was able to keep it close for most of the first half. Similar to the Strauss-Cianci game, team Jarboe began slowing down with no subs and Kelly started making runs. The final 8 minutes we're incredibly hectic with three's being traded back and forth. Chandler scored a career high 25 points, but it was freshman Wes Garriboto who put the game on ice with a clutch field goal. If it wasn't for Josh Booth this game may have gotten out of hand. He was gobbling up boards and gained team Kelly an extra few possessions in both halves.

teDuits vs Donaruma
54-33
A great team effort by team teDuits who didn't need the twins to ball out. They had 5 players score over 7 points and also played some impressive defense. Team Donaruma now has 6 losses and is now destined to be a bottom seed for playoffs. It seems like the Evan injury has really hurt this team and the word on the street is Alex Bushnell's been going through a shooting slump and really struggling from behind the arc. After a tough week, no one needed this win more than Jared Phelps who was as hot as a cup of coffee.
