Home United U18 boys topped their group despite the lost of their final game of round 1. With only nine players presented last night. They were unable to curb Teck Ghee CSC strong-will performace.
Teck Ghee who already out of the tournament managed to pull the strings together last night and upset the group winner with the final score 70-61. They coped well with Home United full court press and exposed their opponent weak defence.
It seems like the Home players were not putting in effort for their last group game. Already secured a group winner place, their plays and defence were sloppy. With the absence of their captain Mitchell and No.7 Xaiver, their fire power was strongly affected.
Home United really need to up the tempo for their next game. In the second round, there are no more weaker teams as most of the weaker team were knocked out of the tournament. Home United will play against last year Champion Min Yi this coming Wed 20 June 2007, 8.30pm at Ang Mo Kio CC.
From Home United's line up and performances, they should considered as "dark horse" for the final. Their first test will be Min Yi. Can they overcome the Champions? We should see.
