Round up…
Men’s Super League: CPUT vs. Vets
It went down to the wire in this one but CPUT did more than enough to be crowned champions for 2010. The first game loss was a wake up call and the players heeded the call. The Vets must be congratulated for their efforts and for keeping the younger generation honest by fighting to the last game and the last whistle. Final score: CPUT 67 – 60 Vets. Continue reading »

CPUT just had to win this game to take the Ladies 2010 WCBA trophy and they had the team to achieve that goal. They seemed to be heading in the right direction after the first quarter with a 6 point lead. Continue reading »
Game 1 of the ladies final came and went… On one side of the court we had Montana Vikings and on the other the favourites CPUT doing battle in a very exciting game. In the first half of the game, it looked as if an upset was on the cards with the Vikings doing the running and staying in the lead throughout.
In the deciding Game 3 of the series played at UCT, the Vets showed their experience and hunger by knocking out the defending champions Montana Vikings in a game that was all about hustle. After being blown out by 20 points in Game 2, Montana Vikings were expected to make easy work of their opponents to secure a passage to the finals where they would have met CPUT. But sports has a way of showing us that if you have the hunger and the will to win anything is possible and the Vets were not going to lie down and play dead for the defending champions.
So the weekend was jam packed with some local basketball in Cape Town. There was an upset on day one of the playoffs in the Mens division, with the Vets showing Montana Vikings that they still had enough in their tank by beating them in Game 1 on Friday night. You could say that there was a bit of complacency from the defending champs but they rectified it on sunday by taking Game 2. Now it’s on to Game 3 to decide on who will advance to meet the CPUT Cats who defeated Montana Vikings 2nd team. Continue reading »

Prediction: CPUT vs Montana Vikings final
In the ladies division, all eyes will be on the CPUT cats who have been the form team of the season with Future Stars trying to stake a claim in the mix to make it to the final. Prediction: CPUT vs Montana Vikings final Continue reading »
