LBI, now 6-1, takes over the top spot by virtue of a 118-56 blowout win over Archies (0-7).  The Bethel Bobcats (5-2) drew even and knocked Mt. Abram into second place with an exciting 63-62 last-second victory.  J & G Ballers (2-5) took over the second half and bested Jay (3-3), 84-63.

The Bethel Bobcats came from 6 points down with less than a minute as Sean Caddigan (24 points, 6 threes) canned 2 free throws with seconds on the clock to seal the game.  Mt Abram was plagued with poor foul shooting in the end, missing 5 out of their last 6 shots.  They were ahead most of the game although the margin was never more than 6 points.  Bethel's Wade Osgood added 13 in support of Caddigan.  Mt. Abram got 22 inside points from Matt Newell, Tyler Wentworth added 16 and JT Taylor 11.

J & G Ballers were hot most of the game from deep against Jay, who fell apart in the second half.  Josh Albee (33 points) and Joe Goudreau (25 points) each hit 5 trifectas to put the game out of range.  Jay was led by Levi Armandi with 19 points, Josh Gray had 12 and Eric Gimelli added 10 more.
