Saint John Riptide News Release
The Manchester Millrats had seven players with double figures, and outgunned the Maryland GreenHawks 138-124, winning their second game in a row. The win capped off the team's home schedule for the 2010 season as it prepares travel to Rochester for the season finale on Saturday.
Manchester held single-digit leads at the end of each of the first three quarters until it took control in the fourth. Leading 96-89 at the end of three, the Millrats reeled off 42 points in the final frame to finish off the GreenHawks, who were led by the red hot Scooter Sherrill.
Anthony Anderson led the Millrats' offense with 25 points and 8 assists. Sharpshooter Charles Mason came off the bench to provide 23, including 7 trifectas. Swingmen Dwight Brewington and Julian Allen registered 19 apiece.
Stanley Ocitti and Charles Bronson held down the interior, and both recorded double-doubles. Bronson grabbed 18 points and 12 rebounds, while Ocitti scored 12 and brought down 18 boards. Steve Deluca, who broke the Millrats single game PBL scoring record with 40 points on Saturday night, posted his 3rd straight game in double figures with 10. Sherrill led Maryland with a game-high 33 points and Terrance Mouton dropped in 30.
During the second half, the Millrats brought the home crowd to its feet several times with high flying aerial assaults on the rim. David Cooper threw down a thunderous two handed tip slam off a missed shot, while Allen and Mason each rocked the rim on fast breaks.
The Manchester Millrats would like to sincerely thank all of the fans, sponsors, and vendors for making this season possible!
