Clash of the TITANS...and RED PANDAS

With tension building between these two new-look Prescott teams leading up to last week’s showdown, even sharing the school yard and court for training was becoming edgy.

And as promised, the game was a close contest, with scores levelling several times throughout.

The Red Pandas line-up still has Farid out with injury, but with the introduction of Savannah in only her second game, the Red Pandas are now almost worthy of the Dragon Scroll...Savannah won plenty of rebounds, set up some quick transitions and scored 4 points.

Seth and Jonah equal top scored for the Red Pandas, with further points contributions from Tanner and Zukiah - who was an absolute workhorse, with a hand in plenty of turn-over’s and attacks.

Alanna and Scout also played pivotal roles for the Red Pandas but in the end, the Titans walked away triumphant, winning by two baskets.

Marilla, for the Titans, top scored for the game with 16 of their 24 points. And for much of the game she seemed unstoppable, until Simon managed to slow her down with some close defence.

Mia played the hardest and fastest I have ever seen, relishing the All-Prescott contest. Maddison, Anthony and William were the other Titan scorers, and Aiden and Nicholas worked hard to stifle the Red Pandas’ offense.

A great exhibition played (and coached) with gusto and enthusiasm making for an awesome spectacle.
