Officer and a Gentleman Davison hit 12 threes

EDB were on fire early on scoring 5 threes with Davison and Officer doing the damage to lead 21- 8 after 8 minutes but as we ran the ran the bench Rockets hit back and closed the gap to 9 at the break as we went for a cup of tea instead of defending. Officer and Davison hit threes again for EDB and the lead was 20 after 6 minutes of the second period as they found our 3-2 defence tough to crack and we were able again to rotate players but Rockets hit back with 4 points from Baker and by the half the gap was down to 9 after a 13 – 2 run when this time someone mentioned free pies and it was the fastest I saw the defence move to get there before pie eating champion slimmer of the year Chris Wylie . Keirl tormented Harvey under the boards to close the gap to 2 after 2 minutes but Davison and Officer returned and hit 3 threes and at the end of the period the gap was again 9 points with Graver and Bolton scoring inside as well. Rockets defence was frustrating EDB in the final period with Kelsey at point being difficult to beat and the gap was cut to 7 by Rowell. Davison again unleashed 2 threes to again frustrate all the hard work of Rockets in defence while Bolton lost the ball in offence and while chasing back dived realising the video was playing and on landing broke his wrist gaining a 5.9 from the judges. The last minute saw Rockets finish strong with Keirl and Kelsey scoring to close the gap to 12 but Officer and Davison did the damage earlier in the final period.
Scorers – EDB- Davison 24, Officer 22, OAP 2,Luke 2,Graver 7,Bolton 2, Invisible man 2.
