Octane Infinity 57, HGI 48

Winning season, fellas!  Adam came out to support the team, and we unveiled our new uniforms to a great win!  I’m not washing mine until we lose again (but don’t worry, I will -  from Lisa), so let’s go 7-0 for Fall season #2 and make me the stinky man.

The better team won last night, and we had a nice even game from everyone.  Once again Chris and David carried the rebounding load with 24 total boards.  David was more active on his shooting, taking 11 shots and keeping his temper under control as he said he would.  Mike focused on his 2-point shooting and ended up with a FANTASTIC 50%!!!!  He still managed to hoist up 12 3’s and made five of them.  John was Mr. Free Throw, hitting six of seven for 86%.  The game’s highlight was Marcus getting his free throw attempts with no time on the clock, and actually hitting the backboard!  HGI made a little come back at the end of the game, but we had it well in hand and it was a good end for our most successful season ever.  Way to go Octane!

Octane Infinity 49, Corbett Fish House 55

The Octane Infinity had a chance to redeem themselves against Corbett Fish House last Monday, October 6, 2008 at The Courts in Beaverton, OR. In their previous matchup, Corbett Fish House decisively defeated the Octane Infinity by 18 points.

The Octane Infinity gave a solid effort, working hard on defense which resulted in nine team steals. The score was close throughout the game and was eventually determined at the free throw line.

“They were pretty patient, passed the ball around to the open guy and then swished their open 3’s,” said Edwin Tanedo. “We were close throughout the game and Mike admitted that they locked down on him and there wasn’t much he could do shooting-wise.”

Chris Turman led the team with 14 points, eight rebounds, and three steals. Mike R. contributed 11 points while Tanedo chipped in nine points.

“We have a chance next week to end our season on the winning end, so I’m looking forward to next Monday,” added Tanedo. “And we did some good things tonight, definitely a lot better than the last time we played them!”

The Octane Infinity were without guard Adam Crane and forward John Le.
