We went on the road to play Feni Saturday. Feni hasn’t lost at home all season. I’m not sure if it’s true, but I heard that they haven’t lost at home in the last 3 seasons. We played hard and gave ourselves a chance but lost 89-82. To see the box score, CLICK HERE
We play on Wednesday on the road against another good team. It should be fun.
I’ve uploaded a few clips from 3 games early in the season. To see them, either CLICK HERE or go to the Highlights&Profile section and look for the Macedonia clips.
Also, here is the footage of the last few minutes of our last game (win again 2nd place team). CLICK HERE
We had another great win this weekend. The fans were great and we won a tough and significant game for us. We are proving that we are capable of beating anybody when we play the right way. We got another great performance from our American center John Chappell. Chapp, or “Chap-Nasty” as I like to call him finished with 18 points, 12 rebounds and 7 blocks in the 75-72 win.

We have a few tough games ahead on the road, but we hope to use this momentum to continue improving.
Saturday was the biggest game of our season and we stepped-up to the challenge and got a great win. We still have 1 game next weekend, but it will not change our fate: we are advancing to the top 6. Now we will play each of the other 5 teams twice (for you mathematicians, that’s 10 more games). If we are able to climb into 4th place between now and mid-April, we will advance further.
The win on Saturday was a great team victory. We played great defense and won as a team. With a healthy roster and a team growing together, we hope to surprise some people.
We played Saturday at home against the 9th place team in the league. Though we controlled a comfortable lead for the entire game, we only won by 3, 82-79. The win keeps us tied for 5th place in the league with 3 games left before the 2nd half of the season starts. To see the box score and recap click HERE.
Sometimes 2 steps forward and 1 step back feels more like 2 steps forward and 5 steps back. We lost last night in the Macedonian Cup which probably felt worse than what it was. We had stretches of bad basketball mostly because of our 21 turnovers. Going into the fourth quarter we were down 6 but ended up losing by 14. And since we only won by 2 at home, they advance.
Now we are ready to start the regular championship games this Saturday. We have 4 more regular season games in this championship before it splits into 2 groups (the top 6 and the bottom 4). Currently we are in 5th need to stay in the top 6!

After a great holiday break of seeing the family and visiting friends, I’m back in Macedonia. We played our first game of the Macedonian Cup last night and won 62-60. It was a great game because we showed character to win a close game against a good team even though we shot the ball poorly. The way the Cup works is that we will now play the same team (Torus) on Wednesday at their place and the point spread determines who advances. Meaning if we win or lose by less than 2, we will advance.
It feels great to be on the court and feel healthy! No problems with the knee. To see the box score click here!
