The guys are in the locker room now, which is full of these little free-standing mini-lockers which seem to fall down either on their own, or like dominos in a series. It's kind of a dangerous place to celebrate a win, but the guys are happy to be where they are, and in the medal hunt.

The team came to play, and talent won out. Both teams made some mistakes, but they were balanced, and traded back and forth. Mike Bacon played a nearly full game, logging over 26 minutes of court time on a Whitey / Ian / Mikey / Daniel 7.5 pt lineup, or a G / Ian / Mikey / Daniel 8.0 lineup. Another prominent line was Ian / Fab / Patrice / Daniel.

The Aussies had Baby Batt on the court for a minute and a half. I'm sure the classifiers won't be happy about that, as he needs 'meaningful time on the court,' and 93 seconds with no stats on the board is hardly going to make them reach effective conclusions.

Four of the Boys from Oz played over 23 minutes each, including The Kid (3.5, who played an iron man game) - Patrick Ryan (2.5) - Scott Vitale (1.0) 0 Ryan Scott (0.5). Co-Captain George Hucks (3.0), who is always a crowd favourite, didn't play a minute, and he was joined on the bench by Co-Captain Brett Boylan (2.0) and veteran Grant Boxall (2.5).

It's too noisy over there to get a full report, but I'll be contacting Marco again at 3:15 EST.
