ROUND ONE SUMMARY
What a fascinating start to the cup! 3 EBBL teams were knocked out in the first round, we saw games going into overtime and we also saw an overhaul of minutes from some teams to try succeed in their league and the cup.
Firstly, a massive congratulations goes out to the 111th seed in England, Fenland Foxes on beating the EBBL side, Club Deportivo San Andres, 96-84. This kind of result illustrates the magic of the cup! The other EBBL teams to depart were Sabre of Valiente who were knocked out by Wrose Warriors seeing the latter prevail by 16 points and The White Tigers whose BuzzerBeater career is coming to an end. Other results saw a strong division II team in Gwent Galacticos being knocked out by Carolina BC who has thrown up more than a few surprises in recent cup history. The Myrmidons defeated Whetstone Wizards by the score of 123-61 as well as Realdemardi and Berinsfield Hornets prevailing in the division II matchups.
The next round hasn't really thrown up any highlight matches but the pick of the games has to be M Dogs of the EBBL travelling to division II team, Streatham Sonics. Other interesting matchups is a division II clash between WTK Trail Blazers and Varnalesos as well as Gauson facing a tough trip OLYMPIACOS 1925.
Good luck to all teams involved next week.
