BMBL kicked off our week 1 games last night at BCI and TISS. 4Life Fitness, Brockville Hyundai, Super Simple Sheets and Lonesome Pine Farms all picked up the coveted week 1 win. While Stonemarx, Captain's Barber Chair, Rideau Realty and Ewyn Weight Loss Studios look to get in the win column next week.
Power Rankings
Brockville Hyundai (+2)
Lockhart puts up an MVP performance helping Hyundai to a comeback win over Rideau Realty. Down 10 at halftime Kloosterman's squad put their foot in the ground in the second half to win by 10. Hyundai will be tested in week 2 vs. Super Simple Sheets.
2. Stonemarx (-1)
After a double OT loss to Lonesome Pine Farms in week 1 Stonemarx drops from 1 to 2. Without former MVP Cody Hache Stonemarx dropped a close one 58-56 but aren't going anywhere in our power rankings. The back to back champs look to reset at full strength next week vs. 4Life Fitness.
4Life Fitness (+1)
Dufort and White have a coming out party dropping 19 and 17 as White finally finds his long awaited partner in crime. Watch out for this duo as they put a lot of pressure on teams with all 3 levels of scoring. 4Life has a tough week 2 match up vs. the back to back champs.
Super Simple Sheets (+2)
No Fawcett=No Fun for Ewyn as Super Simple Sheets crushed them buzzer to buzzer with a final score of 56-23. BMBL rookie Matt Tanton drops a game high 23 points out of Mount Allison University. Fullarton's squad has a good test next week against Hyundai (without captain Rob Fullarton) as we start to determine early season pecking order. SSS only had 5 active roster players week 1 so we will learn more in the coming weeks about how deadly this team can be.
Captain's Barber Chair (-3)
Clemmon's led his team with 13 in a highly competitive game vs. 4Life in week 1. A few bounces in a very close game and it could have gone their way. Expect this squad to bounce back and gel once their young super stars settle into their roles. Highly explosive offence when they play wiith pace.
Lonesome Pine Farms (+2)
This team is proving to have an interesting dynamic as Fortier gets the seasons first double-double (14/11). Tierney drops 18 and 7 with Orbine adding 9 and 8- and with 3 legitimate double-double threats this team has something for sure. LPF looks to pick up a win next week vs. Ewyn and start the year 2-0.
Rideau Realty (-2)
Week 1 was a tale of two halves for Rideau. Running into a strong opponent Rideau played a solid first half and were up 10 points heading into the 3rd quarter. Rideau fell 57-47 and has a similar match up next week against Hyundai with their size.
Ewyn Weight Loss Studios (-1)
Ewyn lost big time and without a true center it could be a long year. Ewyn clashes with Lonesome Pine Farms in week 2 who also doesn't have overly tall bigs. This is a huge opportunity for Ewyn to pick up an early season win.
