CoLA come from behind for U18 Men’s National Cup win
CoLA overturned a double digit deficit to win the U18 Men’s National Cup 67-62 over Charnwood on Saturday afternoon at the NBPC in Manchester.
Charnwood edged each of the first three quarters to slowly build their advantage before coming unstuck following a 22-11 fourth, erasing their hard work and slipping to a heart-breaking defeat.
The Midlanders looked to be in control of proceedings, keeping their Southern opponents at bay for most of the contest, but the floodgates were opened late thanks to some key baskets from MVP Khyle Capanzana, who finished with 18 points, four rebounds, two assists and three steals, including seven points in the fourth.
Isaac Fiagbe added 15 points, six rebounds and six assists, while Daniel Banjoko added 15 of his own.
Charnwood will no doubt be left ruing this one for some time to come, surrendering their winning position with just 2:41 left on the clock.
Aaron Longworth led Charwnood with 17, while Tristan Curran had 13.
