OCBC Arena, Tuesday, January 24, 2017 — Naval Base Secondary (NB) did not panic under pressure and remained undefeated after defeating Punggol Secondary (PS) 48-33 in the North Zone B Division Basketball Championship.

Naval Base improve to a 3-0 win-loss record while Punggol’s first loss saw them drop to a 3-1 record.

Koh Wei Guan (NB #8) scored a team high of 11 points and right behind was teammate Wong Jun Wei (NB #5) with 10.

Shawn Seow (PS #6) led Punggol with 12 points.

Naval base had a comfortable lead for the first two quarters, but Punggol led a furious comeback to tie at 29-29 nearing the end of the third quarter.

Despite that, Naval Base did not lose their composure and handled the situation well. They tightened their defenses and only allowed Punggol to score four points in the fourth to secure their win.

Captain Jovin Chua (NB #12) said, “I am happy with our rebounding because we are bigger sized, hence easier rebounds, and our communication.”
