The MTA Lions defense started off strong and led the Hillel Heat 9-0 by the end of the first quarter.
In the second, Hillel’s Benji Marcus hit a three pointer to open the scoring, and the team would score ten more points to make it a reasonable 25-13 halftime score.

Junior Tzvi Zigelstein showed energy off the bench, scoring seven fourth quarter points in an eventual 50-30 victory for the Lions.
Hillel Junior Aaron Kraut led his team with 12 total points, including six in the third quarter.
