Upset City in the Thunderdome

Game 2 of Light Blue's quest for the T shirt was a set back for the Light Blue faithful. Right after the opening tip you could tell that it was going to be a track meet. Mel Chibende came back from his week long vacation to try and lead his squad to the victory. Gray and Blue kept trading baskets for most of the first half. The crowd was waiting for Light Blue to pull away and they never did. Light Blue was coming off a big victory vs Damien's team. Gray was coming off a poor effort vs the Green team. With less then a minute left Richard drove to the hoop and made what looked to be the game tying basket only to get called for traveling. It was Kody Hine's rebounds and put backs that drove the Gray team to their first win of this young season. Light Blue's average age of 24 didn't help as the old dude's ran out of gas near the end of the second half. Look for this game to be a big momentum builder for the gray team. Light Blue has some questions to be answered when it comes to being in shape and playing D. Richard Young had his worst game of his long and bootsy intramural career. His wife was in the house and maybe this threw him off. Next game for Blue is vs the green team and it is two weeks from today.
