Jurong West Sports Hall, Friday, January 23, 2015 — A 33-point outing for Darren Garcia (#11) sparked Juying Secondary to a 55–24 victory over Chestnut Drive Secondary in the first round of the West Zone B Division Basketball Championship.

The victory is Juying’s second; they had previously defeated Zhenghua Secondary 50–47. Chestnut Drive have lost their third straight game.

Teammate Fabian Lim (#12) had a solid effort in the contest as well, contributing several steals and adding 14 points.

Juying utilized a full-court defensive press right from the jump ball, stifling attempts by Chestnut Drive. However, early foul trouble was the storyline for Juying’s opening quarter, as they tallied several reach-in fouls during their attempts to deny passes.

Garcia (#11) and Lim (#12) led Juying’s offence from the second quarter, as they combined for all 17 of Juying’s points in the quarter.

Juying’s defensive efforts paid off and fast break attempts defined their gameplay throughout all four quarters, leading them to the 55–24 victory.

Juying will next play Pioneer Secondary while Chestnut Drive will face Nan Hua High on Thursday, January 29. Both games will be played at 12.30 p.m. at Jurong West Sports Hall.
