Long Beach Breakers News Release
LOS ANGELES, Ca--The Long Beach Breakers down 26 points entering the fourth qarter of last night's game cut the lead to 5 with just over 2 minutes left in the game but could not close the deal. Breakers head coach ,Oden Polynice, said, 'It was a wake up call, I let the players see what happpens, in the third quarter when we fell behind by 26, when they do things their way as opposed to my way. They listened to me in the fourth quarter'. Added Polynice, 'the game was very intense and exciting. We will easily average our goal of 130 points per game but we've obviously got to play better defensively. Practice just became much harder, starting on Monday. We will win on Tuesday!'.
These same two teams match up again on Tuesday night in Los Angeles. The Long Beach Breakers have their home opener next Sunday night, November 18th, at Long Beach City College, at 730pm.
