ROUND ONE SUMMARY
The first round saw the first EBBL match up of the national tournament and the game did not disappoint as Stinkilemons edged out London Lemurs in a thriller ending 97-95. The division two clash between Vector BC and Lusitania Brasil All Stars saw Vector BC win by a margin of 14 to book his place in the second round whereas Derby County also beat me by a score of 103-83 to go through. Other games that were entertaining and threw up a bit of a surprise were 189th seed, Steelers United, beating a good division II side in Bulviniai Blynai whilst JA Miami knocked out 10th seed, Triximos Tricks.
The second round will see yet another EBBL match up, this time between last seasons champions, Tide of Fire host Bethnal Green Erks. Another EBBL side who has been drawn against a tough opponent is Club Deportivo San Andreas who will travel to II.2 side, Whetstone Wizards. There are also some match ups between division II sides such as Bc Wild Hawks taking on The Admirals, Baro Kiaules going head to head with JR Knights, Bc Giants playing against SuperHands and Kapsukas hosting Wigan Carpenters.
Teams are as follows:
EBBL (15/16)
II.1 (13/16)
II.2 (15/16)
II.3 (16/16)
II.4 (15/16)
Good luck to all teams on Thursday.
