GRITTY!!!
That quality has come to define the Pubbers this season to some degree and it held true last Thursday at Eastview gym as the Pubbers hung on until the final buzzer to escape with a victory!
Brooksie put on a show early to the point where one of our opponents muttered to his teammate - "That guy has not missed a shot."
And it was true!
A good team effort once again held off the last minute attempts by our opponents to hit a three and erase our lead but the basketball Gods smiled on us yet again and the last second shot came up short!!
The Pubbers were lifted by a visit from none other than Steve "Goose" Ryan who came to support his old team and watched us claim our sixth victory out of 8 games.
Ryan, looking slim and game ready, dodged all inquiries as to his possible return to the squad and possibly deferring his retirement plans. Rumor has it he is playing elsewhere in a 3 on 3 league, waiting in the wings for a triumphant return to his old team and staying in shape - but the normally loquacious Ryan was mum on that topic, despite the grin that betrayed his hidden, true desire to don the old green vomitous jersey once again and stick some threes!
Perhaps a Championship Victory by the Pubbers will change his mind?? WE shall see!
More to come on that topic ---
