Kinder London Towers
completed the list of qualifiers for the quarter-finals of the National
Cup after a 98-84 success over Milton Keynes Lions at Bletchey.
The visitors started
well leading 10-2, but Andrew Alleyne netted eight of a 10-0 run to put
Lions in front.
In the third another
good run by the Lions, 12-3 this time, saw them pull the Towers back after
the visitors led 51-64.
Again in the last,
the hosts tried to come from behind with eight in a row, but Towers hit
10 of the game’s last 12 points, mainly from the foul line, to secure the
win.
In-form Chad Wilkerson
led all scorers with 28, whilst recent signing Freddie Cole top scored
for the Lions with 23
