First Round, Game 4

Lord Byng 59 – 70 St.Patrick’s
Close game at half with LB in front 36-31. At times it looked like Lord Byng was going run away with it but St.Pat’s worked hard and stayed close.

LB came out flat in the 3rd quarter and the feisty St.Pat’s got hot and outscored LB 21 – 1 in the quarter. LB seemed uncomfortable in the small gym  against a very tenacious full court press and never mounted a challenge in the 4th quarter.
