VVR scored the first 100-point game of the tournament with a 100-59 win over the Eagles on Friday before topping the Amelia’s Ward Jets 104-89 on Saturday for the second 100-point game of the tournament.

Daniel Lee had 23 points in the win over the Jets, while Orlando Glasgow dropped 22 points as well.  Harold Adams chipped in with 17 points in the game.
