Spring 2011: C League Champs: Wu-Tang
Wu Takes Title in Overtime Thriller
Steamboats 59 Wu Tang 68
This was about as good of a final as you could get. The Steamboats had team chemistry and great defense, but were horribly undersized. The Wu had the flamboyance, but were prone to streaks. All was on display for the final as the Wu took a one point lead into the half. Leng Teng continued his dominant season, sometimes rising over two defenders to drop in a jumper. Unfortunately, Martin Yuan couldn\'t find an opening against a tough Wu defense. On the other side, Adam Speakman dropped in 11 free throws. The majority of those came as the result of strong work on the offensive boards. Keith Murray played another solid game for the Wu ending the season with two very strong games. This game wasn\'t decided in regulation, as Leng Teng buried two free throws with eight seconds left to send the game into OT. In the extra period, the Wu came out blazing and quickly opened up a seven point lead. At that point, the Boats seemingly ran out of gas. The win capped a solid run for the fifth seeded Wu, which included victories over the #1 and #2 seeds from the regular season.
