Week six intra-divisional week saw Rivier and Chris Auto play a very competitive and close game but it was the totally opposite in the first half. Chris Auto Body started off grabbing the lead with the first basket of the game and held that lead for the entire first half. At the end of the first 20 minutes Chris Auto Body was leading Rivier 42-28 despite a balanced scoring effort from Rivier. To begin the second half Rivier came out and knocked down 2 open 3's to close the lead to 8. Throughout the second half Rivier climbed their way back into the game but was never able to hold on to a lead. When the final buzzer rang Chris Auto Body had won 59-56 due to a mental breakdown on an inbound pass with 4 seconds left by Rivier.
The second game of the night between The Playerz and DWC was again a highly competitive game, neck and neck the entire 40 minutes. Despite 7 3's in the first half by Steve Deluca of The Playerz, they only held the lead 34-30 going into the half. However it was a different story in the second half for The Playerz as they only connected for two 3 pointers, as most of their baskets came from the block and mid range. However DWC could not capitalize on The Playerz poor shooting efforts in the second half as they dropped this contest 72-70.
The third match-up between FPC and Sylbrook R.E was nothing like the first two games. FPC jumped out to an early 23-6 lead within the first 8 minutes of the game and never looked back as they consistently scored in transition and from behind the arc every time down the floor. At the half FPC was up by a score of 48-22. However if you were to look at the second half score SylBrook R.E played FPC even. FPC in the second half gave up 39 points as they only scored 32. However this was not enough for Sylbrook R.E as FPC came out with the win 80-61.
The final contest of the night between The Underdogs and 3E was yet another competitive game in week 6. Strong and smart play from both teams in the first half had the score at 30-29 in favor of 3E at the half. To begin the second half both teams came out with the same drive and competitiveness, which lasted the entire second half as well. However a balanced scoring effort from The Underdogs just wasn't enough to come out with the W. Only one player, Jermaine Harris scored in double digits for The Underdogs with 12, as three players scored in double digits on 3E. The final score was 61-57 in favor of 3E. All teams will be in action against divisional opponents in week 7 of the BST "Gate City Classic".
