The losing streak hit 8 last night as 6 Ft Over was swept in their opening night triple header by the “Danny Tanners”. A summer playing in the YMCA league prepared 6 Ft Over for the competition of the Aegon league but preparation alone wasn’t enough. In the first game of the post-Hach era 6 Ft Over struggled to score easy buckets and the offense became completely bogged down for long stretches.
Reiners kept his club in Game 1 by dropping 5 long distance bombs. It wasn’t enough though because in the end 6 Ft Over was a 15-12 loser. After revealing his sole offensive weapon Reiners then was locked down completely for the remaining 2 games. The opposition unfortunately realized how easy it was to shut Jeff down by exploiting his stunning lack of quickness.
Justin Hasenmiller and Richard Dengler led all scorers on the night with 12 apiece. Hasenmiller also yanked down 12 rebounds in the Game 2 loss which makes you wonder what his 6 Ft and over teammates were doing on the defensive glass.
Dengler filled in admirably for a banged up Aaron Shupert who managed to injure himself on three separate occasions during the game, breaking the single game record for the most times injured. Shupert did return in Game 3 and sparked a minor comeback. It wasn’t enough as the “Danny Tanners” escaped 17-16 in OT and survived 6 points 5 rebounds and 4 assists by young Richard Dengler.
Dengler cursed himself as he exited the gym last night but unfortunately none of his teammates could make out exactly what he was saying other than it involved some reference to a “m’ effin Troy Eaves”.
Ex 6 Ft Over bench warmer Brock Ryan was in attendance Monday night. He denied rumors that he would resign with the team only adding that he was contemplating retirement from pick-up basketball and he was there only in support of his ex teammates.
