London Elite finish perfect to claim U14 Boys title
London Elite completed a perfect season, beating Manchester Magic 105-79 to claim the U14 Boys’ title on Sunday at the NBPC in Manchester.
Elite went a perfect 22-0 throughout the regular season before a successful playoff run was capped with a commanding win over Magic.
Trading baskets and evenly matched through the majority of the first half, Elite began to pull away in the second half thanks to the considerable output of MVP Leo Bowman who finished with 34 points and 11 rebounds, alongside Daniel Onuoha who had a game-high 37 points.
The duo helped the Londoners to eclipse the century mark in one of the best offensive performances of the weekend, leaving Manchester to play catch-up.
Magic were paced by 26 points from David Akhidime.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
