Geelong Cats 50 lost to Waverley 59

Top Scorers: A. Garcey 13, L. Varley 11, R. Herbert 10

Under 14 Boys Victorian Junior Championship

Geelong Cats 57 def. Diamond Valley 54

Top Scorers: J. O’Leary 18, B. Biggs 15

Coach’s Comment: “A very scrappy game in which Diamond Valley jumped us at the start and gave us a lesson in how to play basketball for the first three quarters. To the boys credit, they toughed it out and won ugly despite playing nowhere near their best.”
