Quotes

"Good win last night for the last game of the session against a team with pretty good athletic ability and there was about ten of them. I thought we showed a lot of good ball movement and cuts. I also think we did a better job of making it harder for their guards to get their big man the ball in the second half." - CJP guard James Lawrence

"We won despite playing without a sense of urgency in the first half and likely should have won this one easily but we won. And finished the season with a winning record and here is to defending our 2010 Spring Championship come early April!" - CJP forward Daniel Sondreal

Game Notes

CJP center Josh Lawrence missed the game for unknown reasons. Team CJP is now 30-12 all-time with one league championship through six seasons of play in Division 4 of Lawrence Parks and Rec Men's City Basketball League.

Quotes

"We worked the ball inside really well, and got a lot of open looks on the post. Charles, Lane, and Josh worked really hard down low. Our defense was great, both halves we played really solid defense. Late in the game we had to foul, and they didn't make free throws. The zone defense we went to in the second half really helped us come back. Jim and Lane hit a couple big three's, and we pressured them really well at the end of the game. It was a great win for us." - CJP guard Brett Goedeke

"Between Lane's post work in the first half, three balls in the second half, and coaching decision to switch to the zone that sparked our second half run, he gets the game ball tonight." - CJP forward Jim Hammen

Game Notes

Guard James Lawrence missed his third game of the season for reasons unknown. Center Charles Morris fouled out of his first career game while playing for CJP.
