Pacers in two b-ball finals tonight

UNIT TRUST Maloney Pacers have made it into both the First and Second Division finals of the Eastern Community Basketball League.

The Pacers beat Sangre Grande All Stars 74-61 in their First Division semi-final at the Maloney Indoor Sport Complex. Although Pacers’ Miguel Williams and Grande’s Joel Roshford both scored a game-high 16 points, it was Williams’ five blocked shots which  may have changed the face of the final scoreline. Derrick Boxhill added 13 points to the Pacers’ cause, while Grande’s David Langton’s 15 points and seven steals proved futile. A strong showing from the Veterans outfit in the Second Division semi-final helped them to beat Caledonia Clippers 81-62. Veterans’ Barry Stewart scored a game-high 29 points and snatched 13 rebounds, while Derek “Cornbread” James put in 20 points and ripped down  11 rebounds. Clippers’ Kerwin Laress scored a valiant 22 points and William Marques contributed 13 points to the Clippers’ resistance. The finals will be be played tonight  at the same venue.
