His teammates continued their fine defensive play in the second half and he benefited again, especially on some fine passing from Paul Middleton, to run his total to 24 points for the game. Robert Harkes scored four points 'and ,,,Middletoq scored too. Although he was unable to score a basket, Jamie Thompson's fine defensive play contributed a great deal to the victory.
