Surging Mutants a Threat to Division

SUNDAY, JAN. 28 -- Last Sunday, the surging New Mutants capped off a 3-game win streak by defeating the always deadly Charliewang Express in a 42-39 defensive slugfest.


In this exciting divisional battle, there were a combined 16 steals for the game!  The game was tied at the half (22 to 22).  Khaleek was the voice of the New Mutants, directing his players on where to set up, when to shoot, when to trap etc.  He led his team with 5 assists, 12 rebounds & 3 blocks.   William K. led the Mutants with 12 points (2 three pointers)  Ira added 10 points (2 three pointers as well).

All eyes were on Billy Dowd for the Wang Express as he continually executed, drove to basket, hit jumpers, you name it.  He led all scorers with 23 points (4 from behind the arch). 

Mutants were up 3 with 14 seconds to go, Dowd had a wide open look off an offensive rebound, put it up & it smacked the back of the rim & came out.  Close but no cigar as the New Mutants improve to 5 and 3 & hand Charliewang Express (5-2) their 2nd loss of the season!

Final Score:
New Mutants - 42
Charlie Wang - 39
