Ravens' first home game of the season drew a big crowd and they were sent home happy with the win and where entertained with a good team performance. The hone team welcomed back David Maguire and Fu Faapito. The Ravens got off to a flying with three pointers from M. Dida and Darren McGovern. Mateusz Karpinski was the thorn in the side of Killinkere all game with some great inside play. Fu Faapito showed his worth to the Ravens cause this year with some great defence and assist play. Mindi Savicius played excellent fast break basketball all game long.Though it wasn't all plain sailing for the Ravens as the the Killinkere squad rallied in the second quarter to only put three points between the teams at half time. Solid defence and organised offensive play seen the Ravens command the third quarter and went into the final quarter with a comfortable lead.
Two three pointers from McGovern put the game out of sight which meant the Ravens could give the under-age players a run out. In the end the Ravens won comfortably 80-67. The Ravens next game is away to newcomers to the league the Mullingar Devils on Saturday night.
