PROSPECTS pulled off a come-from-behind win against It Takes Five, 64-60, to claim the championships in the men’s basketball tournament in the 2007 Northern Marianas College Intramurals last Saturday at the NMC Gym.
It Takes Five controlled the winner-take-all finals match from the start until the fourth quarter, before Prospects made their move in the last three minutes of the game to steal the lead and top the tournament.
Kevin Aldan paced Prospects with 22 points.
Ronnel Gamboa led It Takes Five with 14 markers.
Prospects and It Takes Five advanced to the finals after beating Last Minute and Kelvin’s Disciples in the semifinals, respectively, last Friday.
Aside from the men’s basketball tournament, the 2007 NMC Intramurals also featured a co-ed volleyball tournament.
Final Chapter topped the co-ed volleyball tournament drilling a straight set win over Cultural Mix in the finals, 25-15, 27-25.
The volleyball finals match was also played last Saturday.
Final Chapter downed the Bump Warriors in the semifinals last Friday to gain a finals berth. Cultural Mix thwarted Samari in the second semis match to complete the finals cast.
