Game Recap: Rams vs Bulls
Result: Wheeler Motor Company Canterbury Rams (89) defeat the Franklin Bulls (66)
For both sides, this would be a massive match. For the Rams, it means the difference between the 2nd seed and the 4th seed. For the visiting Bulls, it was the chance to end the season on a high. An early lead for the Rams in the first quarter would spell the story of the first half as the Bulls tried their best to play catchup. While they took their time to start sinking shots, when they did, they played even with the home side. They’d trade buckets and the home side Rams would carry an 8 point lead into the second quarter. There Walter Brown and Jack Andrew would constantly connect and showcase their brilliance. The Bulls would keep themselves in it, only losing the second quarter by 1, meaning a 9 point lead they’d need to squash.
The Rams would come out of halftime and turn their 9 point lead into 17. The Bulls would call a timeout and try to stop the slide but it yielded no results. The lead ballooned to 20+ and the Bulls were left scrambling. The Rams had built their season on a smothering defence and it showed here again. The Bulls only managed 14 points in the third quarter while the Rams would add 13 onto their 9 point lead. The fourth quarter would be a similar story for the Bulls, as they had no answer to the Rams defence.
