Round 3 (Regular Season): Montreal T. hands first loss to KW Titans

There were just three rounds played in Regular Season of BSL and we can clearly see which teams will fight for top positions and which will try to avoid bottom places. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

The most surprising game was a loss of Titans (6-1) in Montreal on Saturday night. Visitors were defeated by Toundra (1-4) 110-103. Montreal T. made 27-of-35 free shots (77.1 percent) during the game. They also forced 19 KW Titans turnovers. Montreal T. looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. 26 personal fouls committed by KW Titans helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. American players dominated the game. It was a good game for guard Jeremy Hayes (193-1997, college: Angelo St.) who led his team to a victory with a double-double by scoring 18 points, 6 rebounds and 11 assists. Swingman Kyle Steward (201-1995, college: UMKC) contributed with 23 points and 6 rebounds for the winners. Guard Antoine Mason (191-1992, college: Auburn, agency: Interperformances) answered with 28 points for KW Titans. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Toundra are looking forward to face Windsor Exp. (#3) at home in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Titans will play against Lake Erie in Jamestown and are hoping to win this game.
