Playoff Opening Round

Going in to this mornings game everyone had a pretty good feeling about the outcome, based on the previous meeting between these two teams. Things went pretty much as expected in regards to the score of the game, but what was unexpected was Drew's performance. He had the game of his life today, going off for 16 (!) points, including two three-point shots. Not only did he set a career high in points, he also grabbed 12 rebounds and made 4 blocks during the course of the game!

While the team won this game, securing a spot in the semi-final round that noon, the bad news for Drew was that he wouldn't be able to make it to that game due to a conflicting playoff game for his '05 Lapeer Storm hockey team. This marked the end of his Springfield Township Parks & Recreation basketball. At least he went out with a bang!
