Dolphins vs Warlords Tonight!
With the ST. LUCIA BASKETBALL FEDERATION - and LIME - entering the final third of the LIME HOOPS CLASSICS – fans can be certain to get a treat tonight – Dennery Dolphins and VBCC Warlords - square off at the Dennery multipurpose court at 7 pm.
Both teams have enjoyed a perfect winning streak of four game each – up until last week - the two teams enjoyed the top position along with Soufriere Sulphur Stars – however on Saturday - Dennery Dolphins handed Soufriere their first defeat – and in so doing - set the stage for the biggest game of the season to date.
Both teams have put up similar figures – VBCC Warlords have hooped 258 points and Dennery Dolphins 257 – Dennery Dolphins 155 rebounds and VBCC Warlords 151 – VBCC Warlords 14 block shots - Dennery Dolphins 11 –*- a not so welcomed statistic - referred to as turn overs - Dennery Dolphins 97, VBCC Warlords 92 – the field goal percent for VBCC is 38.95 and Dennery 38.14 –*- if the game is to be decided on the line - perhaps this single stat – the free throw percentage - may make the difference – VBCC enjoys a little cushioning there - with 46.24% while Dennery is at 34.94%
These two teams are not without some history – a number of the VBCC players participated for the fire service team - that went down to the Dennery Dolphins last year - in the este for all - invitational tournament – the VBCC coach – Mr. Glen Kala Guiste - was also the coach of the fire service team - and he may find some comfort – knowing that he did defeat Dennery before Dennery took that championship.
But what may make the difference this time – for Dennery it has to be the comfort of home - and they should attempt to bring out the whole family – 'tout fami yo' - on the other hand - in VBCC unbeaten streak - one may conclude that they have been tested much more - not only that they have faced more teams at the top of the table but have also found themselves to be the last men standing - in two very close encounters – in the first instance – VBCC vs Courts Jets – Courts Jets led the game for three plus quarters but was outscored by VBCC 18 – 8 in the fourth to win 64 – 59 – in the second instance VBCC led Southern Warriors for almost all the game - and actually went into the fourth quarter with a 12 point lead - but Southern Warriors stormed back outscoring VBCC by nine points and tying the game with 38 second left – somehow VBCC escaped by the hair of - most of their chins - and won by 3 points.
Tonight all road lead to Dennery as the drama unfolds – there can only by one – LIME HOOPS CLASSICS!
