The game-winner for the first game is @ 56:30 and well worth the watch.

Kelly vs Dzwonek
49-46
A fantastic game from start to finish was a perfect way to open up the 2020 rec playoffs and was capped off with an incredible game-winning, bank three by Nate Bushnell to move team Kelly into the quarterfinals. Team Kelly led for most of the game, but team Dzwonek is never out of a game if Stevie is in the game. Stevie D started getting hot from deep, but with 20 seconds left, he was getting face guarded by Sammy Eggiman, so it was left to Tommy Raymond who let a contested three fly from deep and tied the game with 15 seconds left. Coach Kelly drew something up in the timeout and as sloppy as it was, it worked and Nate Bushnell was able to celebrate a huge game-winner. It was a big game for Big Red (Sammy Eggiman) who despite a terrible regular season, put up 10 points in the first half alone. As for Stevie D, Cole Connerty, and of course Sam Smethurst, this is the end of the road for their rec careers which is a sad moment for all and I'll write something up for all the seniors at the end of the playoffs, but I'll quickly say thank you for some great memories.

Cianci vs Donaruma
36-28
The less said about this game the better. In a very sloppy game, team Donaruma didn't have much scoring and fell victim to the sleeping team Cianci who played a much better brand of basketball compared to the regular season thanks to Cory and Vassell showing up. A much lower scoring game compared the first game of the night was only 13-12 and was one of the less interesting games of the season. Dylan Cianci has consistently been a bright star for team Cianci this season, and he played well again tonight to earn his team a game vs team teDuits in the quarter-finals. Again Sadly this is the end of the road for RD, Willy J and Evan Biegel who have all been huge contributors to this year's league and have helped make it such a success.
