Adult league update - Championship edition



Our friend Patrick Dupree sent this note over about Lights Out claiming its second straight John D. Fuller RAC adult league title...

On Tuesday evening, the John D. Fuller Sr Recreational/Athletic Complex held its Winter Adult League Championship game, and what a game it was. 

The defending champion, team Lights Out, defeated the Carolina Reign 145-143 in quadruple overtime. 

Yes, after the Carolina Reign were down 22 midway through the 3rd quarter, led by Corey Johnson's 32 points, it took Lights Out and all of leading scorer Rodrick Brown's 35 points and 4 overtime periods to win its second championship in a row. 

Out of the 14 teams in the league, the second seeded Lights Out are once again winners of the championship rings given by the league.

"On behalf of the John D. Fuller Sr. RAC we would like to thank all the players and coaches who competed in our winter league," league coordinator Patrick Dupree said.

Reminder: The deadline to register for our summer league is June 12.  For more information, please contact Patrick Dupree at 868-2828. Only the first 20 teams to register will receive a spot. The John D. Fuller Sr RAC is located at 6627 Old Bunce Road in Fayetteville.
 
Lights Outs consists of Coach Myeesha Hockaday, Elliot Williams, Ivan Little, Jamall Turner, Kenny Haywood, Rodrick Brown, Darrell Peele, and, not pictured, Raman Mckethan and Ben Brown.

That Roderick is an unbelieveable athlete with unlimited potential. I have never see someone play the game with his determination and skill level. I wonder why he is not in the NBA.
