Two of those come this weekend – the first of them against league leader Hume City (13-2) at BSC on Saturday night, the second against McKinnon (12-4, third) at Balwyn High School on Sunday afternoon.

Sean Conway’s 42-point night for our Championship Men in their road win against Melbourne University on Saturday night was his Big V career high. Conway also handed out six assists to go with 10 rebounds. He leads the league in scoring averaging 31.8 points a game and is second in rebounding (11.6rpg) and ninth in assists (4apg).

After splitting their two games last weekend (a home win against Geelong United and a road loss at Ballarat), our Youth League Women entered the week with a 13-5 record and in third place behind unbeaten league leader Knox (20-0) and Eltham (14-4). Our Dragons play sixth-placed Whittlesea (9-9) at Mill Park on Saturday night.
