The Crates Lake Country Boats U14 Major Bantam Boys started their season recently with a 2-1 showing in Markham. Game 1 was a closely contested 30-36 loss, in which both teams led at different times but never by more than 8 points. Game 2 rewarded unselfish play and disciplined offense with an impressive 47-23 win. A late evening Game 3 started slowly, with the Lakers being outscored 17-0 before their first basket. Down 36-19 at half, the boys dug deep, stayed positive and played non-stop pressure defense, chipping away at the deficit and pulling ahead by one point with a score of 48-47 with two minutes left. In thrilling fashion and making several clutch free throws, the Lakers won 52-48, underscoring the philosophy that a "never quit" attitude, team work and defense wins games!
