Shannon Celtics defeat D Law to improve to 4-1

Rather than accept a forfeit win, the Shannon Celtics were classy and worked with D Law’s schedule. The Celtics were short with just 6 players – Shaun, Cisco, Jared, Derek, Joe, and Cream.

D Law played much better than their winless record indicated. D Law kept the first half close with tight man to man defense and an organized, perimeter passing offense which lead to some easy buckets.

The Shannon figured out the man to man defense in the second half and Jared hit some big shots as the Shannon extended their lead to 13 points.
D Law made a furious comeback with tenacious defense and quite honestly, they got away with a plethora of fouls which were not called. With 1 minute left D Law had narrowed the lead to two.

The Shannon however maintained their composure, alternated between their 2-3 zone defense and man to man before shutting out D Law for the final minute of the game to secure the win!
The Shannon Celtics improved to a record of 4-1 proving that they can get hit and keep moving forward!
