The Ravens basketball teams continue to soar after their Third Division and Open teams trampled the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) and East/West Fire teams Saturday night at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall as the Georgetown Amateur Basketball Association (GABA) Open and Third Division leagues continued.
It was all Ravens when they outscored GDF 75-65 in Division Three while East/West Fire went down 65-78 in the Open match-up.
Bounty Colts then dismantled the Colours Panthers 68-57 in their Division Three fixture.
Tyrone Hamid and Marlon Haynes were once again a vital part of Ravens arsenal, top scoring with 21 and 16 points respectively, as they asserted their dominance on the GDF opposition. Dellon Davidson assisted with a well deserved 15 points.
Phillip Earle was not intimidated by the Ravens powerful presence on the court netting 19 points for GDF while Jason Khan supported with 11.
Ravens senior players continued where their Third Division counterparts left off when they doused the flames of East/West Fire later that evening.
East/West fire came out blazing as Ravens had some ups-and-downs, but by the second half, Ravens had a commanding lead and it was clear they had the game in the bag.
Ryan Stepheny led the scoring for Ravens with 15 points while Ryan Gullen was right up there with 14.
Wendell Warde and Kester Gomes top scored with 15 and 10 points respectively for the opposition.
Prior to the Ravens onslaught, Colours Panthers were outdone in their Open game.
The high-flying Vivian Aulder seemed to enjoy being above the ring as he dunked it on the Panthers on numerous occasions. He went on to score 11, supporting lead scorer Onica Fraser’s 18 points.
Colts aggressive defence tamed the Panthers, only allowing 14 points from Panthers high scorer Yannick Wade and 10 from Olantunde Griffith.
The Cliff Anderson Sports Hall comes alive again tomorrow night with more Open and Third Division basketball action.
