Intramural basketball ends
By DeSean Lawson
Fayetteville State University students didn't have to travel
to Charlotte to see a great basketball game.
The intramurals basketball regular season came to an end
March 21 with team Lights Out defeating team Bailer Block
ing 60-35 to secure the 8th and final playolf spot.
The season began with 16 teams participating in intramu
rals basketball this semester
The FSU students and faculty members played their hearts
out throughout the regular season and were very eager to
showcase dieir talents in this year's playoffs. Many of the FSU
students who participated in intramurals basketball this season
showed everyone that there are good basketball players here
at FSU that are not on the FSU basketball team.
There were a lot of great teams in intramurals basketball
this semester, but one team that stood out was team Young &
Old. Team Young & Old stood out not just because of their
outstanding record but because they are one of the rare teams
that consist of young and old players. The unique and talent
ed team was led by big man Julian Capel and guard Devin
Thompson. Even though this dynamic duo led the team, their
success counted on their speedy guard, a very skillful slashing
small forward and a solid bench. So it is no surprise that they
made it into the playoffs.
The top eight teams in intramurals basketball to make it to
the playoffs were teams Young & Old, Dream Chaser, Unex
pected, Flight Team Takeover, 2ez, HDMD,Untamable, and
Lights Out. In this year's playoffs, there were two divisions.
Teams in the white division included: No. 1 seed team Dream
Chaser, No. 2 seed team Unexpected, No. 3 seed team 2ez
and No. 4 seed team Flight Team Takeover. Teams in the blue
division were: No. 1 seed team Young & Old, No. 2 seed team
HDMD, No. 3 seed Untamable and No. 4 seed team Lights
Out.
In this years playoffs, the No. 1 seed from the white divi
sion, team Dream Chaser, faced the No. 4 seed from the blue
division, team Lights out. The No. 2 seed from the white di
vision, team Unexpected, went against the No. 3 seed from
the blue division, team Untamable on March 22 in the Capel
Arena.
In the other first round bracket the no. I seed from the blue
division, team Young & Old faced the No. 4 seed from the
white division, team Flight Team Takeover. The No. 2 seed
from the blue division, team HDMD, faced off against the No.
3 seed from the white division team 2ez on March 22 in the
Capel Arena. Final playoffs were March 26. For information
