Premier A Basketball v Wellington College - Wednesday 22 July
The first interschool of the year saw us playing Wellington College at Arena Manawatu on Wednesday.
Wellington College got off to a good start with some good 3 point shooting from their centre, and the team had to work hard to initially stay in touch. Wellington College's lack of a ball carrier, and some improved defending from the Premier A's, saw PNBHS eventually claim the lead mid-way through the first quarter and by the end of the first quarter we had built a lead of 20 points.
The game continued with PNBHS maintaining the lead and placing lots of pressure on the Wellington ball carriers. This pressure told and we were able to stretch the lead in the fourth quarter eventually winning 100 - 71. A great start to the interschool season.
