PIONEERS DEFEAT AIS IN THRILLER!
The "Star FM" Pioneers have
defeated the talented and in form Australian Institute of
Sport by one point at the IceHouse on Friday night.
The game went right down to the wire, AIS star Pat Mills
missing the first of two free throws with just over a second
left in regulation which could have taken the game into
overtime.
After a start to the game Dallas Jeffree totalled 25 points
including some crucial baskets to assist the Pioneers over
the line in front of a large and loud home crowd. But it was
Ryan Blankson who was most dominant for the home side who
totalled 22 points and pulled in many rebounds against his
much bigger AIS opponents. Blankson was awarded with the
game night MVP award.
Bed Dowdell paced the AIS and as expected Pat Mills was a
valuable contributor for the AIS in their first game in a
tough weekend on the road.
The Pioneers are again at home next weekend hosting the
Southern Districts Spartans. Now with a win behind them the
boys will be out for revenge after the demolition last
weekend in Brisbane, get out and Cheer them on!
It will also be welcome back to former Pioneer, Damien
"Moose" Anderson - BE THERE & BE LOUD!
