Here is a recap of the games in play…

The number 9 seeded Weathermen upset the top seeded Team Daniels by a score of 54-43. The Weathermen play outstanding defense of leader scorer Corey Ryser, who still scored 24 points in the lost. Team Daniels never found their shooting stroke and suffered without Luke Brewer. Chris Dijak dropped in 24 point in the win and The weathermen are looking to their final four game on Thursday.

The Globetrotters continued their assault against 2 Wood. The Globetrotters used 20 points from David Ray and 16 from Sal Amrose to dispose of 2 Wood team 58-28. The globetrotters will play The Weathermen for a berth in the Final game on Thursday night. The Globetrotters won their regular season game against the same team 2 weeks ago.

The 3^rd seed Iverson’s Hoyas held their ground and beat Let’s Get It by a score of 51-41. Let’s Get It struggled from the floor and never found their long-range game. Iverson’s Hoyas look to be rolling on all cylinders at the right time.

The second seeded Peter North Stars came through with another mercy rule on the Fudge Brownies squad. Peter North now seems the team to most likely capture the intramural championship from the recreational division, however you never know what can happen in the tournament. They will take on Iverson’s Hoyas in the final four!

Here is a recap of the games in play…

The second round proved to be lots of fun! The number 1-4 seeds all got upset by lower seeds.

The Young Gunz who were the number one seed in the tournament were upset by The Dominators, who are looking to advance to the championship game for the second straight year. The final score was the Dominators 65, and the Young Gunz 51. The Young Gunz lost their 3 point and shooting touch throughout the entire game and couldn’t knock down any baskets while The Dominators used big games from Chace Howland, Corey Wade, and Nick Motta to seal their final four appearance, for the second straight season.

In a tight game the Muffin Tops lost their game against Gametime by a score of 58 to 57. Mike Hinkley paced GameTime with 18 points. The Muffin Tops got great play from Shaun Connolly and Andrew Rajunas, but couldn’t shut down the big men for GameTime. GameTime has a final four appearance against The Dominators on Thursday!

In the game of the night The Pillows knocked off 3 seeded Da Runners by a score of 68 to 62. The Pillows had a lead throughout the game and looked like they were in complete control until about 3 minutes left in regulation.  That is when Da Runners went on a 10-0 run to tie the game at 62 apiece.  Mike Bixby hit two HUGE three’s to tie the game, but his team ran out of steam and couldn’t score for the rest of the night. The Pillows seem to have all the right pieces to make another title run this year.

In another upset The Real Dominators used stellar play from Scott Bascom to get past the second seeded Jagaloons. The Jagaloons, who had three technical fouls called on them, couldn’t seem to find an answer on the offensive end. They let their emotions get the better of them and the technical fouls proved to be the difference. The Real Dominators scored 12 points of the technical’s and cruised to a 56-40 victory.

The Trojans advanced by default over the Playa’s because of their seed.

The Willies seem to be on the right track again as they won their game against the Bad News Bears despite Lecia Dipietro 25 points.  Ashley Spingler, Corey Cuddihy, and Monica-Sabina Bharrocha all scored in double figures for The Willies.

The Fighting Irish had it easy as the BearShots never showed up to their game. The fighting Irish will now take on the Free Agent Force in the second round.

In the game of the first round the Blockers blew a gig first half lead against Dy-Nasty. Dy-nasty came back with a charge in the second half, but couldn’t get the win.

The Men’s Recreational Intramural Basketball Tournament got under way this past Sunday with 1^st round action on April 26^th, 2009

Here is a recap of the games in play…

The #1 seeded Team Daniels have no problems with Peter Nincompoop! They won by a score of 84 to 60. Corey Ryser continues to put up huge numbers for the number one seeded team, however in the win the team lost a huge part when Lucas Brewer went down with a sprained ankle. Brewer’s status is doubtful for the rest of the tournament.

The 9^th seeded Weathermen topped the Cream team by a scored of 48-40. The Weathermen used big games from Matt Edgerly and Chris Dijak to propel them into the elite eight! The Weathermen will play team Daniels for a final four spot!

As in every tournament we will get the upset and the 12^th seeded 2 Wood or Not 2 Wood provided one! The 2 Wood team knocked off the Shooters by a score of 66 to 49. Brandon Cook and Josh Carajanes lead the Cinderella team in victory.

The 4 seed Globetrotters avoided upset and knocked of the Patrick Chewings in easy fashion. The Globetrotters appear to be the most balanced team in the tournament and get points from all different people each night. The Patrick Chewings will not be able to defend their championship from last year. Craig Tobias lead the team with 19 points in a losing effort.

Iverson’s Hoyas appear to be on their way to another run at a championship titie. They handled their first round foe team Rooney rather easily by a score 52-34. Team Rooney couldn’t find their shooting touch and struggled all night shooting the basketball. Iverson’s Hoyas were lead by Nick Brown and Matt Shea.

The 6^th seeded Let’s Get It squad crushed the Cameron Crazies by a score of 64-33. Let’s Get It is a very balanced team and had 4 players in double digit scoring. Yunior Gonzalez scored 20 points in the win and his team will be taking on iverson’s Hoyas which looks to be a great game.

The Fudge Brownies pick up an upset win over the Wamps. Nathan Miller lead the way with 29 points  and the Wamps couldn’t find a way to slow him down. The Wamps played without their Point guard Mike Fraser due to a Sprain Ankle.

The 2^nd seeded Peter North Stars continued their undefeated season winning their game 60-44 over The Good, The Bad, and The Fugly. The Peter North Stars have a great blance of guard play as well as big men in the middle to hit the glass and rebound really well. They should be a favorite to advance far in this tournament!

Here is a recap of the games in play…

The #1 seed Young Gunz had all they could handle with the 16^th seeded Dirt Merchants. The Young Gunz used 17 three-pointers to hold off a short-handed Dirt Merchants team that was lead by Matty McGlaughin and Jim Torney. McGlaughlin dropped in 43 points and Torney scored 37 to pace the Dirt Merchants, but the firepower of the Young Gunz proved to be too much. Stace Garrick scored 38 and helped his team to a 102-86 win!!

The #9 seeded Dominators pull out a win in overtime against the 8^th seeded M.I.B. The final score was 54-53. Nick Motta lead his team to the victory with 27 points, while Christian Messersmitz scored 23 in the defeat. The Dominators look for a showdown with the top-seeded Young Gunz.

The 5^th seeded Gametime team held off the 12^th seeded Bwater Boats and Bros team. Gametime looks to have a great shot at advancing far in this tournament with the play of their defense and the size of their big-men under the basket.

In an offensive battle the 4^th seeded Muffin Tops held on to defeat Team Q-Tip. The Muffin Tops used great play from Andrew Rajora, and Brian Wilson to knock off the feisty play of Team Q-Tip! The Muffin Tops look to have all they can handle when they battle GameTime in the elite eight!

In a Chippy and hotly contested game the 3 seeded Da Runners held onto knock off 14^th seeded Mass Martime Academy!  Sam Johnson and Sebastian Patino had big games as Mass Martime couldn’t seem to find enough range for a big three. Da Runners look like they have all the pieces in place to make a run for the title this year!

In a blowout the 6^th seeded Pillows crushed the 11^th seeded Un-Competitive team by a score of 68-38. The Pillows used 4 players in double figures to dominate throughout the entire game. Roland Millien, Keenan Kelly, Julian Walters, and Jesse Teixeira look to have their team on the right track to claiming back to back Intramural championship titles!

The Real Dominators lived up to the hype and crushed the Goats by a mercy rule. The final score of 71 to 41. Six players scored for the Real Dominators and they seem to be on a role at exactly the right time!

The second seeded Jagaloons team handled the 15^th seeded Spring St. Hooligans easily. The Jagaloons have lost their second leader scorer Issac Perry and he is not expected back for the reminder of the tournament. They have a pivotal match-up on Monday against the Real Dominators.
