Summer 2021: B 5v5 West League Champs: Free Timelord

8 Orange came so close but could not pull off the Cinderella falling to 1 Free Timelord 69-79
Free Timelord 79 ORANGE 69

Orange has not won all season, Free Timelord has not lost all season.  This should have been a piece of cake right? Not so fast.

Team Orange had the lead with under 7 minutes to go in this contest, a situation nobody else in the league has had all season against the 1 seed this late in a game. As soon as Free Timelord would grab the lead, Team Orange would answer back with baskets of their own. John Kelly and Micah Evans combined for 50 points, including 9 three-pointers.  Oh and the 8 seed only managed to lost by 10 points with only 5 PLAYERS! This team has lost some close games all season, but they truly should heart tonight.

Free Timelord has some work to do after this performance.  They have been near perfect all season, depending on the Sellew brothers to make defensive/offensive players, and their fast paced offense to knock down shots at a high rate.  Michael Griffin was a force down low against the Sellew Brothers, but they did enough to get the W. Eric Sellew was the MVP of this game, but another off night like this could cause them another early exit.

Orange – Big kudos to you for fighting until the end. Sure you may have finished the season with no wins, but you fought each week and showed you still deserved to be in the league.
