Regular Season Round 18: Taipans - Crocodiles 85-81
Date: February 3, 2012
The game between closely ranked teams ended with 5th ranked Townsville Crocodiles' (11-8) road loss to fourth ranked Cairns Taipans (11-9) 81-85. The hosts took control from the first minutes by winning the initial quarter 22-15. But Townsville Crocodiles won second period 23-20. However it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. The game was decided in the last minutes when Cairns Taipans won last quarter 25-22. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 21 assists comparing to just 5 passes made by Townsville Crocodiles' players. It was a good game for American point guard Jamar Wilson (185-84, college: Albany, agency: Pro One Sports) who led his team to a victory with 18 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. The other American import guard Andrew Warren (195-87, college: Bradley, agency: Interperformances) contributed with 24 points for the winners. Four Cairns Taipans players scored in double figures. American point guard Edward Gill (184-78, college: Weber St., agency: Priority Sports) replied with 17 points and the former international center Luke Schenscher (216-82, college: Georgia Tech, agency: Priority Sports) added 16 points in the effort for Townsville Crocodiles. Cairns Taipans maintains fourth position with 11-9 record. Townsville Crocodiles at the other side dropped to the third place with eight games lost. Cairns Taipans will play against league's second-placed Perth Wildcats at home in the next round and it may be the game of the week. Townsville Crocodiles will play against Adelaide 36ers in Findon and hope to get back on the winning track.
