A new name brought about a superb performance from the Marshall MK Lions at Bletchley against London United.

The Lions were in command from the opening tip as a 12-2 start and some good defensive work created a 19-8 first quarter advantage.

London responded through Tarick Johnson and Marlin Capers in the second period but from 44-23 the Lions hit three consecutive threes – the last from Robert Youngblood – to lead 53-25 at half time.

Although United poured in three threes of their own in the third quarter, nine points from Kevin Griffin enabled the Lions to maintain control at 79-45. With every Lions player on the score sheet it was left to Dru Spinks to hit the final basket for a rampant home team. Tony Windless led all scorers with 29 points, whilst Tarick Johnson again led London United with 16
