DEC.29- ROUND II - ABA NYC 91 CBA NY 103


After a historical game for the NYC Internationalz, winning their inaugural game season opener, being the first ABA team to beat a CBA team and winning against the undefeated NY Albany Patroons, the greatest rivalry in Semi-Professional Basketball... The Battle for the Greater NY is now tied at 1 a piece. After the news spread throughout Albany NY, Head Coach Derrick Rowland and Asst Head Coach Bob Catherwood would leave their doors closed to the press for comments.
The CBA NY Albany Patroons would win game 2, outscoring NYC 103 to 91. The Internationalz were down by half-time 36 to 48; but after the half NYC would hit a spirt in the 3rd quarter, outscoring the Patroons 32 to 19 with a score of 68 to Albany's 67. As the intensity grew, the smell of home cooking filled the air; the amount of favorable calls made by officials in the 4th quarter against NYC would dictate the remainder of the game to the final outcome.
NYCIZ Double Digit Scorers: Marvin McCullough - 23 pts and 8 assists Gordon Malone - 19 pts and 16 rebounds Sean Dantzler - 17 pts and 5 rebounds Alexus Foyle - 13 pts and 6 rebounds
