ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI – All Ah Wee provided an upset victory in the first of their best of three Short and Sweet, Back on our Feet Play Off against East, 90-74, on Sunday July 20, 2014 in the Multi Purpose Sports Complex.

All Ah Wee, led by the hot shooting Franklyn Penn Junior’s 18 point night, raced into a 24-13 first quarter lead and never looked back.

By half time and although East raised their game after a sluggish start, All Ah Wee had a 10 point lead at 44-34 and were holding the men from the East defensively, whilst matching them offensively.

The third quarter was all square at 20-20, but during the final period All Ah Wee pulled further ahead to secure the victory and head into Tuesday’s second leg knowing they are just a win away from a place in the Championship game.

Penn Junior added 5 rebounds, 4 steals and 7 assists to his stellar performance, Jevon Serrant 17 points with 12 rebound and both Travis Isaac and Jamal Serrant scored 11 points.

He scored 14 points adding 10 rebounds,  6 steals and 7 assists as his team overcame a five point first quarter deficit to lead by 3 at half time, 30-27.

The third quarter saw Mad Mix regain the lead and enter the 4th quarter up by 4 at 49-45, but then Fearless mounted a furious charge to win the game 69-65 after outscoring their opponents by 8 in the last period.
