With Chester
Jets not in action until Sunday, Westfield Sharks Sheffield took their
chance and
moved outright top
of the BBL Championship Northern Conference, thanks to this hard fought
91-99 victory over
Derby Storm.
The Sharks had to
withstand some outstanding shooting from Jermaine Brown, who finished the
game with an incredible 44 points, including 5 three pointers in a row.
Sheffield, however,
dealt the killer blow with a 17-2 start to the final period to take an
unassailable 90-76 lead with four minutes remaining. Previously, the game
had been neck and neck, with the Storm leading heading into the final period,
but only by a single point - 74-73.
Peter Scantlebury
led the Sharks' scoring with 27 points.

and Win on the BBL
