…as Kwakwani Untouchables and University of Guyana Trojans remain undefeated

It was a points fiesta at on Saturday at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall as spectators witnessed over 200 points scored in the Guyana Basketball Federation’s One Guyana Basketball Premier League.

The opening game of the night saw the Royals, undefeated in their first pair of games, battling Black Caimans, who were still searching for their first win. From the jump ball, the Royals created huge separation between themselves and the Caimans with the first-quarter scoreline reading 44-10.

The Royals’ dominance did not stop in the second quarter, as they managed to put up 22 points to the Caimans’ four, resulting in a score of 66-14.
With the margin of difference already 52 points, it was a forgone conclusion that the Royals would secure the win, as the Caimans’ frozen offence showed little signs of warming up.

The Royals headed back to their hometown all smiles as they became the first team to record an astonishing 102-point win over the hapless Black Caimans.
