THE SANTA BARBARA BREAKERS WON THEIR 3RD WCBL GAME WITH A 91-45 THRASHING OF THE LA WRANGLERS. THE BREAKERS SUITED UP 10 PLAYERS AND SUBSTITUTED IN WAVES, CREATING GREAT
TRANSITIONAL SCORES OFF OF SWARMING FULL AND HALF COURT DEFENSE. THE BREAKERS RECORDED 14 STEALS, 8 RESULTING IN FASTBREAK LAYINS. AUSTIN OKOSUN, ONCE AGAIN, LED THE ATTACK WITH 19 POINTS AND 10 REBOUNDS WHILE 5 OTHER BREAKERS NOTCHED DOUBLE DIGIT POINTS: NEWLY SIGNED TIM BILLINGSLEY (NEOSHO CC) 14; TIM TAYLOR 12; ALLAN PURNELL 14; RENO BIGHORN-NBDL PLAYER JORDON BURRIS 12; AND ANTHONY STOVER 11.
THE BREAKERS FRONTLINE HEIGHTH DOMINATED THE BOARDS 49-29 FOR THE GAME WHILE GAINING A 36-25 HALFTIME LEAD. THE DEFENSE DID NOT LET UP IN THE SECOND HALF AS THE BREAKERS OUTSCORED THE WRANGLERS 47-20 IN THE FINAL TWO QUARTERS. ALSO, THE BREAKERS PLAYED VERY UNSELFISH BALL WITH TIM TAYLOR RECORDING 8 ASSISTS; BILLINGSLEY ADDING 5; AND A TEAM HIGH OF 25 FOR THE GAME.
THE BREAKERS ARE NOW 3-0 FOR THE SEASON.
