The DVSS senior boys Dynos basketball team is back on the court, and have already chalked up their first win.
On Monday, December 5 the Dynos headed to Trochu to take on the Blue Jays in the Golden Hills League for their 2011-2012 season opener.
The squad was down two key members from last year’s team due to injuries. This gave younger players a chance to step in and show they can contribute.
Coach Jeff Messom said though the team looked rusty at times with their outside shooting, the Dynos still managed to take a 40 - 9 lead into half time. They were led by the strong play under the basket of Alex Cliche, Brock Boyd, and Michael Cameron, whose size provided a challenge for the smaller and undermanned Trochu Blue Jays.
The second half provided similar problems for the Blue Jays as the Dynos continued to gobble up all the missed rebounds and continue their dominance on the boards and out scored their opponents 48 to 8. In the end the Dynos came away with an 88-17 victory.
This weekend the Dynos are off to their first tournament of the season in Strathmore. League play continues for the team next Wednesday at PCA.
