COLTS Basketball Club and Plaisance Guardians U-23 team were crowned champions of the Georgetown Amateur Basketball Association (GABA) Knockout tournament after winning their respective ‘best-of-three’ series.

Colts followed up their 68-59 win against Nets in the first division on Monday with an 86-62 win on Wednesday evening to clinch yet another Division One basketball title.
The Colts’ backcourt was once again pivotal in their success with point guard Shelroy Thomas scoring a game-high 20 points while Stanton Rose netted 15 and Hodayah Stewart 15 in the Nets’ lopsided defeat.

Meanwhile, in the U-23 contest, the Guardians picked up from their 73-59 victory in the first game, to win 65-51 on Wednesday to complete their series whitewash against Pacesetters.

Terrence Daniels presented another sensational display and the club’s ‘big man’ Akeem Crandon also turned some heads with his ball-handling skills.
The GABA knockout tournament wrapped up last evening with the second division championship.
