Game one of the 4th annual Icebreaker Classic held at Ypsilanti Arbor Preparatory featured the Eagles of Chandler Park Academy and the Rams of Flat Rock High. Both teams opened up the game not being able to score on easy baskets, primarily due to the aggressive defense they both displayed.
Chandler Park’s poweroutlet came from Shatira Gaines, who crashed the boards and worked hard on offense, resulting in an old fashion three finish, and 10 points and 6 rebounds for herself in the first half. However Flat Rock was not waving the white flag and giving up. They went on a 12-4 run, including a nice three point shot from senior guard Paige Nemith. At halftime, the score was tied 21-21.
After the half the Eagles picked up where they left off. They went on a 10-0 run and looked more determined than ever. Flat Rock once again found themselves playing catch-up. The Rams fought hard on both ends of the court but never could get over the hump. The quickness and athleticism of Chandler Park was just a little too much for them. After an impressive run from the Rams, Chandler Park held on to claim the game.
Leading scorers for the night: Chandler Park: Gaines 12, Walker 11, Farrell 8, Williams 7; Flat Rock: Nemith 20, Vey 6, Cerroni 5
