The Spokane Rockets wanted to send a message to the rest of the Spokane AAU league and they did in a big way in handling a very tough Chargers team 45-31.
The Rockets jumped on the Chargers from the opening tip with Jace Parbon scoring a quick 6pts to start the game. They held a 20-8 halftime lead, and never let the Charger claw back into this one.
The Rockets won this game for two reasons - they played great team defense, holding the ultra-quick, high-scoring Chargers well below their season average; and they took care of the basketball - only turning the ball over 8 times (and not a single one from any of the kids off the bench!!).
Statement made - now its time to finish the job in the playoffs!!
Player of the Game: Eckahelo Simpson - 13 pts, 19 reb, 5 asst
Spokane Rockets v. Chargers
