He was MVP of the game. Edward recorded a double-double by scoring 23 points and getting 14 rebounds. He also added 7 assists in 33 minutes; quite an impressive performance considering it's only Edward's first season in pro basketball. TV 1862 Langen (13-13) is placed fifth in South-West group.
The Regular Season already ended.

#3. Experienced Michael Lay (5'11''-G-84, graduated '06, currently in Australia) was not able to help Southwest Slammers in their game against Suns (1-3) in the Australian State League (second division). Despite his very good performance on Friday night Lay was the top scorer with 26 points. He also added 4 rebounds in 33 minutes.
