Octane Infinity 62, Al’s Gators 68

The Octane Infinity played against Al’s Gators last Monday, September 22, 2008, at The Courts in Beaverton, OR. The Octane Infinity exploded early in the first half and built a huge lead over Al’s Gators. But Al’s Gators kept chipping away at the lead and by halftime, they cut the lead down to five. Unfortunately for the Octane Infinity, Chris Turman had to leave the game due to a prior commitment and did not play the second half. Al’s Gators took full advantage and rallied to take the lead with minutes left in the game. In the end, Al’s Gators just passed around to milk the clock as they won, 68-62.

“Close game last night, I blame it on Chris because look at his line! 2/8, 2 rebounds, 1 block? Come on man, you gotta be more selfish!!! Taking only 8 shots, only getting 2 boards? What were you doing?” questioned Edwin Tanedo. “It’s as if you only decided to play one half and then bail out on us. Were you trying to be like Kobe? Show us a lesson?”

Mike R. led the Octane Infinity in scoring with 28 points, hitting eight three-point shots for the night. David Camp contributed 10 points and eight rebounds, and Edwin Tanedo added 10 points.

“I should be back in full selfish greedy-ass form next week,” warned Chris Turman. “Good luck prying the ball out of my hands, fellas!”
