Our VYCW had a tough weekend finishing with 2 losses. On Saturday night they were beaten by a strong performing Hume City Broncos, 85 – 65. Brodie Theodore and Chloe Tidswell had great contributions with 14 points and 11 points respectively. The girls than made the trip to Bendigo.

On Saturday night the boys overcame Hawthorn Magic, 75 – 70, making 8 three’s and solid performances from our big men, Cameron Conlon and Justin Petrie who both finished in double figures for both points and rebounds. For the second game of the weekend our youth men travelled down the ring road to face off against the Altona Gators. The game was extremely close and was decided in the 9 seconds thanks to Dylan Dunstan making the winning shot, 78 – 77. Dylan Dunstan finished with 17 points shooting at 58% from the field with 3 boys also scoring double digit points.
