Congratulations to both sides on making the final and for the game that was served up too, it was a fantastic contest. However, special congratulations to Los Mikitos who was victorious for the first time in a tournament final to grab the prestigious crown.
FINALS MVP
There were a few candidates with three of the Mikitos' players ending with a double-double, however the importance of the 30 rebounds and 33 points makes Milos Kalajdzic stand out. His contribution on either end was fantastic and he also managed to dish out four assists and block three field goals.
