Durham City Bulldogs 2 Dominate Montreal Classic!!!

In probably the first recognizable tournament before the OBA begins, The Montreal Classic showcased this past weekend with one of the GTA's own, Durham City Bulldogs 2 winning the Classic handly! The Bulldogs dominated throughout the tourney, defeating all the Quebec teams by 25+ points per game. Dissapointed that the tournament was actually mixed with 96 and 97 teams, Coach Palmer made it a great learning experience for his kids, realizing the importance of bilingualism(French and English)in Canada and its benefits. Although the competition wasn't as strong, the kids still competed and showed that Ontario basketball is still the premier province when it comes to hoops! 6'2 lanky center, Sheldon Fraser and 6'0 forward Jahidi Tate dominated in the paint and were beasts defensively blocking everything in sight anmd averaging about 7 rebounds a game each. The dynamic duo of guard/forwards Trevor Baptiste and Spencer Thomas lead the way offensively for DCB2 averaging about 15 points a game a piece. Along with the steady point guard play of 5'10 Obi Okolie, the Bulldogs blew the competion out of the water and are on there way to a great start in preparation for a strong year ahead! These boys are most definelty going to be a team to reckon with this OBA season.

Thanks coach. The boys had an excellent weekend and they learned alot about themselves and eachother. They played hard this past weekend and are hungry for the competition in Toronto. Special shout outs to the boys for a complete team victory. Our next game is against Whitby Saints on Saturday November 7 at 2:30 at Pickering High School. Should be an interesting game as we will be playing against 2 former Durham City #1 team members.

I believe this is the Whitby Saints #2 team not the #1 team you are playing
