Xue with Best Ever individual u21 performance
(38481)

A first time triple double was the highlight as the Aussies overcame a CT scare from Belgium. Xue put on 10 assists in the first 18 minutes of the game, finishing with 16 by the end of the game. Belgium led the scoring in the first, and second quarters before the game was tied at 3 quarter time. The game looked over with 10 seconds to go as the Aussies were up 5pts, but Belgium knocked in a quick 3, fouling WTS and sending him to the line. Pressure got to him as he was short on both attempts, giving the visitors an opportunity to stay in the game. Belgium star Vaes was sent to the FT line, taking his moment and sinking both shots. Overtime was a one sided affair, as the Aussies showed their dominance pouring on 18pts in 5 minutes.

Australia makes the final 4

As I said, a CT made this really interesting. Germany had a fantastic looking side in great game shape. And they threw the wooden spoon at us. With their SG going 8-8 FG in the first quarter, the scores were not falling in our favour. Luckily the dominance of a few of our players swung the game, giving us a very tight, but favourable finish.

MVPs

Sooo Close!
(38625)

A shot by Burkinshaw just didnt drop to level scores on the final siren. Looking at the ratings, we certainly put ourselves in the right position to win... but fell short by 2pts. The GDP didnt work in our favour, but it did get them to steer away from an inside offense, and allowed us to play LI without being double GDP'd. Still, no trophies for this tournament, just the home court advantage for next season. Great season with a really, really strong group of players!
