BBL Championship
Scottish Phoenix Mitsubishi Rocks  92  (19,43,64)  (Sheckles 24, Berry 22, Perre 13)
Westfield Sharks Sheffield  69  (17,32,53)  (Yanders 16, Reinking 12, Payne 10) 

Scottish Phoenix Mitsubishi Rocks secured their fourth BBL Championship win of the season in impressive style with a 92-69 success at home to a sub-par Westfield Sharks Sheffield on Sunday evening. 

A close first quarter saw Rocks leading 19-17, before an 8-0 second quarter burst, which put them 31-21 to the good. Sharks rallied and seven unanswered points around the half-time break reduced the deficit to five points at 43-38. 

However the Scots - in a display which coach Kevin Wall termed "our best by far this season" - stepped up the defence in the second half and Sharks never
got closer than six points thereafter. 

A four-point play from Ryan Huntley saw the Scottish side lead 68-53 early in the fourth and there was no way back for Sheffield. 

Stephan Sheckles led all scorers with 24 personal points; Robert Yanders added 16 for the visitors whose coach Chris Finch described only as "poor".
