UOG Basketball Teams Sweep On Saturday In The GMCBL
Both University of Guam Teams in the Guam Men's College Basketball League won their
games on Saturday in the UOG Calvo Field House.
The UOG Varsity Team beat Harvest Baptist Bible College 85-55 in a game that UOG broke open in the 2nd part of the first half. UOG lead 18-16 with 10 minutes left in the first half but pushed out to a 52-30 lead at half-time. The Tritons kept the pressure in the 2nd half as well, but their offense slowed a bit from the 100 point pace they had enjoyed the first two games of the GMCBL season.
UOG was led by Dezdin Fikes with 22 points and 13 rebounds followed by Ryan Nanguata with 19 points and 6 rebounds. Jeffrey Hadley led Harvest Baptist with 16 points.
In the 2nd game of the afternoon, the UOG Men's Basketball Club Team came out and played a solid game for 40 minutes, never letting Guam Community College back into the game after taking a 37-28 lead at half-time. The Club Tritons kept building the lead in the 2nd half to win by a 80-54 margin.
The UOG Club team was led by Correy Abraham with 15 points and Jason Seid who scored 14. Brandon Lee Aritos scored 12 as the only other Club Triton in double figures. Brando Duenas scored 22 for GCC, and Raymond Tolentino added 18.
The UOG Varsity team is now 3-0 in the GMCBL while the other three teams are all 1-2
at the half-way point of the season. The league plays again next Friday night with
Harvest Baptist playing the UOG Club Team at 6:00 p.m. and GCC battling the UOG Varsity
team at 8:00 p.m. All games are in the UOG Calvo Field House and admission is free.
