pioneers get the w
As the title suggest the Pioneers beat Knox by 23, 86 to 63.
Erik Burdon led all scores with 28 in another fine performance in a well balanced team performance with Tom Daly, Jan Warbout, Matt Sutton and Lukass Blicavss all performing beyond what the box score might suggest. With the import Titus Robinson incredible tough run with the referees continuing significantly restricting his impact. To balance that out Knox import Lester Strong's minutes were also limited in a similar manner but with Warbout nullifying him when on the court.
This win puts the Pioneers at 2 and 2. A fantastic start considering Ben Allen and Brad Hill are yet to join the team and Daly and Warbout's involment has also been limited over the first three games.
Coach Hill will continue to work the boys on the training track this week and integrate Allen and Hill into the lineup for this friday's home game against Canberra at the ice house and the away game against Kilsyth. With a 5 and 2 record after next weekend a real possibility!
Surely Eze must be in consideration for the Sixers next year. Why must me get imports such as Christopherssen and Massigale to play as shooter of the bench. Surely Eze is more than capable of filling this role and is a local!
Let's go Pioneers!
