MCBL 1st Conference Recap

It's been over a week already since we lost in the division finals. With the annual MDC sportsfest ushering in, the disappointment has faded and we're all feeling much better now.

Though we'd love to have won the championship, the First Conference will not be remembered as a failure. Here is a brief recap of IBM achievements and highlights, both team and individual, during the recently concluded season:

• We topped the division in the following team categories: Scoring (83.1 ppg), Rebounds (43.3 rpg), Assists (14.8 apg), Total FG made (290) and attempted (652), 3FG made (52).
• Herbert led the division in total points scored with 211 while averaging 23.4 per game.
• Jon led the division in total rebounds with 82, while averaging 9.1 per game. Herbert was second in total rebounds with 80.
• I led the league in total assists with 64, while averaging another league-best 7.1 per game.
• Herbert led the division in total FG made (82) and 3FG made (21). He shot a collective 53% from the field while hitting 38% from rainbow country.
• Herbert, Jon and I were named to the All-Division First Team (aka Mythical 5). JP was named to the Second Team.
• Herbert, Jon and I were also part of the All-Defensive Team.
• Jon took the Best Defensive Player award.
• Herbert took overall MVP honors.

Outstanding season for IBMers both collectively as a team and individually as well. We're all looking forward to the Second Conference this September.
