11 year 8 students travelled to GSIS on Monday 14th for a friendly game in preparation for the ESF tournament to be held later in the month. It was their first experience of a competitive situation as a year 8 team and they applied themselves well. At the end of a fast paced first quarter the score was 6-6, with GSIS moving ahead in the second quarter 11-7 after scoring a few fast break lay-ups. Island school had a fantastic third quarter and brought the score back level to 17-17 and were only 2 points behind going into the final quarter. After pulling level again and the lead changing from GSIS to Island school,
GSIS scored a huge 3point shot with 1 minute to go and followed it up with another basket to finish winners 30-23. It was a great team performance by the year 8’s and scoring 23 points in their first game was excellent. Sanjay, Isaac, Kabir and Lok Ngai all got points on the board and played very well. Well done to the whole team: Mark, Harry, Connor, Adrian, Lok Ngai, Vito, Justin, Kabir, Chirag, Isaac, Sanjay.
