BIS in the semi-finals for the Basketball Nations Cup.

 Today the BIS Eagles played two GREAT games in the 2014 Nations Cup Basketball Tournament. First the Eagles beat School of Nations in an exciting high scoring game. On the second game BIS was in the lead in the first quarter and the scored was tied at the half-time mark. On the third quarter Sta. Terezinha opened a lead which ultimately gave them the win at the end of the game.

   All BIS players played very well tonight and team put on an extraordinary effort in both games. The highlights were the trio Lucca, Goro and Wilko who scored the majority of the points for the Eagles with excellent moves down low and many assists to each other. Linus did a great job getting offensive rebounds and scoring inside the paint. Makwembo, Rafael, Salvador and Saturnino also did a super job in playing tough defense and helping on the offense. The whole team was in sync and it was FUN to watch! Way to go Eagles!!! 

  Now the Eagles finished second in their group and will move on to the semi-finals which will be tomorrow (9/20/14)  at 4pm at Escola das Nações (School of Nations). All players should arrive 30 minutes early. 

 Special thanks to all who came to cheer for our team today. It was AWESOME!!! Two more games tomorrow... Go Eagles!!!
