This week’s spotlight game takes us to the second grade division in the back gym at Yeshivat Ben Porat Yosef. Congregation Ahavath Torah vs. Akari Therapeutics Plc. The boys went from zero to full speed in the first seconds of the game. Both squads played tenacious defense, contesting dribble penetration and every shot attempt. Akari Therapeutics Plc got an early boost on a free throw from Coby Shatzkes and two baskets from Zachary Nelson. Congregation Ahavath Torah battled back with two baskets from Natan “the scoring machine” Pearlman, to go along with one a piece from Ephraim Aschkenasy and Yoel Eiselt. At the half, Congregation Ahavath Torah was clinging to three point lead.
The second half was back and forth, but Akari Therapeutics Plc overcame the deficit as Nelson sank three of four shots from the charity stripe sending the game to overtime. As time was winding down in the extra frame, Aschkenasy found Pearlman in the corner, and Pearlman cashed in hitting nothing but net for the win.
The Mitch Gross Basketball League will be taking the next two weeks off. The action resumes February 2-3 at Ma’ayanot High School, Yeshivat Ben Porat Yosef and Yavneh Academy.
