In the first game of the play offs here in the Howard Pulley Summer Pro League it is the Howard Pulley Bye the 17 U team going up against El Amin’s Fish House. As this game gets underway both teams are looking to push the ball up the court.


As this game gets underway Chris Taylor who is from who went to Wayzata high school is playing well here to start off the game. El Amin’s Fish House’s Travis Busch has just come down on a fast break and he had a monster slam dunk. He has played well here so far in this game. He has also looked for the open man and he is not afraid to pass the ball off when he feels the need.

Both teams are going at each other hard during the first quarter. There have been a lot of lead changes and ties to start off this game. Both teams are playing well here in the first quarter. Royce White who has verbally committed to play for the University of Minnesota has come down with some good dunks here to start this game off with. Dan Colman who plays at the University of Minnesota has made a couple of fantastic dunks here to start this game out.

At the end of the first quarter the score is Howard Pulley Bye 25 and El Amin’s Fish House 23.
Royce White is playing well here in this game he has come ready to play. After the altercation that he had with the officials he has shown composure so far in this game. He still has some more improvement in his game but he was played well here in this game so far.


The Howard Pulley Bye team has played well here so far they are ahead of this El Amin’s Fish House team. El Amin’s Fish House has only one loss and that came last week in their final regular season league game.

Both teams are going hard after each other here in this second quarter. They are playing hard. Both teams are trading baskets here late in this first half. It has been an exciting half here as both teams are fighting hard.

At half time the score is Howard Pulley Bye 50 and El Amin’s Fish House 42.

As this second half gets under way both teams come out shooting. Rodney Williams has played a nice game here. He has started out this second half with a monster slam dunk. There is a nice size crowd here at this game to start out the play offs.


Luke Olson Patterson is playing well here in this game. He has made some nice moves here he has been able to beat his defender off the dribble and make some shots here in this game. Both teams are playing well here it is a tide game at 61 piece with 4:00 left to go in the third quarter.

At the end of the third quarter which has been close throughout the score of the game is Howard Pulley Bye 72 and El Amin’s Fish House 73.


El Amin’s Fish House has come out on fire in the fourth quarter they have stepped up and been fighting to get this lead and take it to this Howard Pulley Bye team. I think with their first loss last week I think that they took it personally and they don’t want to begin the play offs like they ended the regular season last week with a loss.

El Amin’s Fish House has kind of taken over here in the fourth quarter. They have gotten out and played well here in the second half. Even though both teams played hard in this game El Amin’s Fish House comes way with the victory tonight by the final of 106-85.
