Loyola College starts in style

Loyola, which led 27-14 after the first quarter, built up huge lead by the second quarter and was never tested. Vels University, which came in as a replacement on the first day, was well-served by its Sudanese student Ayuel but it was not enough. 

By the last quarter, Loyola turned to practice from outside the D for three pointers and got plenty of them. Vicky, Manikandan and Bala were on target as the champion won by 65 points. In another lopsided contest MCC whipped MLR Institute, Hyderabad 103-61. 

League Scores: Loyola 108 (Vicky 16, Manikandan 13, Bala 12) bt Vels University 43 (Ayuel leek 15, Vijay 10); MCC 103 (Daniel Sagayaraj 15, Karthi 17) bt MLR Institute, Hyderabad 61 (Basant Kumar 12, Hevish veema 23); JIT Sriperumbudur bt GTN College 93-63.
