Spring 15 - Thursday Men's Recreational

Last night's games brought the spring regular season to a close with Dempsey and Ryan's Team separating themselves from the pack.

In game 1 we saw Ryan's team jump out to a massive 20 point 1st half lead only to see The Donkey's battle back to get it within 4 under the 5 minute mark in the 2nd half. However, superior post play and free throws allowed Ryan's team to seal the deal for a 65-52 win.

In Game 2 we saw The Spurs use some sharp shooting early and often to blow open the game with Eddie Jones. Final score: 86-52

Our final game was a possible championship preview: Demsey vs. Nailed It. After Nailed It ran out to an early advantage, Demsey used defense and fast breaks to pull away for a 59-45 win.

Going into the playoffs, the favorite is Dempsey sitting at 6-0 with Ryan's Team and Nailed It right there with them at 5-1 and 4-1 respectively.

The playoff bracket has narrowed itself down from 5 to 2 after semifinal action on Thursday night.

In Game 1, the top seeded Dempsey squad took down the Bucks by a final score of 60-37.
The Bucks were able to keep within striking distance through most of the first half, but too much depth by Dempsey proved to be too much to handle.

In game 2, Dempsey took the court again and didn't seem to miss a beat by defeating The Spurs 64-44. The same formula of sharp shooting and relentless fast breaks propelled Dempsey into the finals.

Game 3 was tight throughout but The underdog Donkeys were able to keep it together long enough to hold off Nailed It. This highly aggressive game saw a ton of fouls by both teams, which eventually proved to be Nailed It's downfall.

Next week we will have a finals matchup between the favored Demsey Squad and the upset driven Donkeys. .
