A** Kickin


Reading, MA - Origins Unknown used a balanced attack and some sweet twine-tickling by Shu-ter Patel to overwhelm an undermanned Evans team Thursday night 90-67.

It wasn't the prettiest match-up that these storied teams have had over the years. OU was blessed with all six players suited up, while Evans only showed with four players. Evans did have a great shooter to help keep the OU bunch on their toes, but the game was never in question after the tip - Patel made sure of that. With seven threes in the game, Patel was lights out from the perimeter, helping to spread the floor and balance the attack for the rest of the team.

With OU cruising, James "Stretch" Hogan IV had a memorable fast break turn funny when he coiled, then exploded for a dunk...ish attempt. The effort came up just short (maybe six inches), and gave everyone involved a chuckle. This video will give you an idea of what happened... (Click Here)

While OU was getting offensive contributions from everyone, Evans was busy setting a modern-day record for three point attempts. Unfortunately, if that is your strategy and you only have one shooter (and he is getting smothered by Danger Dan Fisher), then your chances ain't good. OU meanwhile, saw Dr. J Greg Robinson's signature baseline scoop shot... Cap'n Mike's screen and pops...plus, Chris "Big" Johnson's pu-pu platter of post moves. Throw in Fisher's mid range game and Hogan's typical production around the rim, and you get a blow out.

OU moves to 3-2 on the season with next week's much-anticipated game against The Crusty Muskets. The Muskets lead the league with a perfect 5-0 record but have had a tough time with OU in the past.
