“The guys came out war ready and I gave them a motivational talk and they planned to keep the streak together, they got everything running smooth and they closed it out for us,” Team Elite Coach Joylon Wilson told Island Sun Sports of his team that got 24 points on Saturday from Jahdique Winchester after dropping 19 on Friday. “When we enter the finals, we’re going in with the same mindset because our strategy is to be aggressive, stay keen and focused on the defensive end.”
