RADIOACTIVE CHEESEBALLS Take Shape

In the hype leading up to an epic Prescott V Prescott match-up, Prescott-1 (Green) decisively settled on their latest & final Team Name - “Radioactive Cheeseballs” (thanks Seth, creative naming genius…).

Back to last week’s “Epic game”…Prescott Red opened the scoring, & in a very close first period, the lead changed hands some 5 or 6 times, as these fellow Prescotians proved to be quite evenly matched.

Gawar, coming off the bench & changing up the tempo of play, adding 10 individual first half points (towards his game-high 14), also combined with fellow first half scorers; Seth, Peggy-Lee, Akoul & Nate, to forge a small Cheeseball buffer going into the major break.

After the break Prescott Red steadied & rallied under the leadership of senior players, Jonah, Scout, Tanner & Zukiah (Zukiah scoring his own bag of 8 second half points), & were aided by Kaitlyn running hard & Sade & Gem chipping in, particularly on defence, before the Red’s game was hobbled by the Radioactive Cheeseballs cutting off & converting a number of stray passes to extend their lead deeper into the game.

Simon & Farid also played great team-minded games for the Radioactive Cheeseballs, with the whole team gelling well.

Another highlight was seeing Akoul, in a spectacular show of girl power, chipping in for her 8 points.

Thanks Alana for sideline support & thanks scorers; Mrs Robson, Mrs Hatchard & Scarlett & Mr Robson the previous week, & Scarlett for Coaching in the Reds V Cheeseballs game.
