Regular Season Round 1: Belfast Star - B.Gais Neptune 72-75
Date: October 6, 2013
Another exciting game where leader B.Gais Neptune (1-0) edged by three points bottom-ranked Belfast Star (0-1) 75-72. Belfast Star was very close to get their first win. But it seems they have to wait a little bit longer. It was a key game for the top position in the league. B.Gais Neptune forced 20 Belfast Star turnovers and outrebounded them 47-29 including a 38-19 advantage in defensive rebounds. B.Gais Neptune players were unselfish on offense dishing 21 assists. Belfast Star was plagued by 27 personal fouls down the stretch. Worth to mention a great performance of American forward Darren Townes (201-86, college: Hofstra, agency: Blacktop Management) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 24 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks. Guard Gerard Noonan (180-82) contributed with a double-double by scoring 16 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists for the winners. American forward Frank Otis (198-90, college: Weber St.) answered with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 11 rebounds (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) and forward Ferghal Toner (192-83) added 13 points and 5 rebounds in the effort for Belfast Star. Belfast Star's coach Josep Berrocal tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. B.Gais Neptune keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 3 other teams. Newly promoted Belfast Star still closes the standings with one game lost. They share the position with 3 other teams. B.Gais Neptune will play against Moycullen (#8) in Galway in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Belfast Star will play on the road against the league's second-placed DCU Saints in Dublin to get more than just one victory in their record.
