The Alligators came out strong in this one leading by 7 after the first couple of minutes.(9-2)  A quick couple of baskets by a few different players & the Good Fellas found themselves in a position they have hardly ever been in, "trailing".  It was short lived!

 

The Alligators called a TO with 12:11 left to go in the 1st half.  Usually after a TO, the team that called it comes back strong(at least, that is the hope!).  All the timeout did was put a fire under the butt of the Goodfellas.  Goodfellas racked up 31 1st half points & held the Alligators to only "2" more points the entire half!  That is team defense!  Speaking of defense, Tymel Jackson had the biggest block of the night where he literally got his palm on the ball slamming it to the gym wall!  You had to be there!  

Leading the way for the Goodfellas was Tymel Jackson with 15 points(all coming from downtown).  He also added 1 assist, 2 steals, 5 boards & a monster rejection!  Following Tymel was point guard Kevin John who added 12 points & a game high 6 assists!  All players on the Goodfellas contributed at least 2 points to their 58 total.  

Bill L. gave all he had for the Alligators penetrating fearlessly & put up 20 points.  Unfortunately, 7 of those points came in the 2nd half when a comeback was just simply out of reach.  Team Captain Mike L. usually has success penetrating/driving but the sound defense of the Good Fellas made it difficult(Mike finished with 4 points).  

Watch out for the Good Fellas!

Final Score:
Good Fellas - 58
Alligators - 34
