The Cinderella story continued last night as the Boardwalk Empire took down the reigning champs, the Wolfpack in overtime. Down by nine points at halftime, the Empire never quit. Their ball movement and offensive attack were led by the effort of their forward Matt Zachariades. Playing the low post, he managed to dish the ball on give and go’s all night, running the team from the baseline. This was a total team effort that was not to be stopped. On defense, the Empire managed to frustrate MVP George Vlahos and the Pack, causing them to make turnovers and play very sloppy, especially towards the end of the game. This eventually led to an ejection for Vlahos and then Aris Haritonidis in overtime. Nick Kafkalas was on fire as he led his team with 36 of his team’s points. His passion symbolizes his team’s belief and effort.
