Unlike previous basket ball games when Marlon Pancho of the All Star Basketball team scored several life saving shots, Shaundel Gordon made multiple clear shots throughout the game on 3rd April, 2008. The U.S.C All Star Basketball team played an exciting, unpredictable game against the U.W.I team. Although fans for both teams were fragmented and scarce, those who were present deemed the game as one of the best games the All Star team has ever played. The players of the All Star team played a united, clean game that night. Players such as Angelo George, Akeem Williams, Aaron Hunte and Shaundel Gordon, all skillfully made impressive shots throughout the game. The All Star team through team unity kept the lead even when at nine minutes into the game. The U.W.I team attempted to close the gap on the All Stars lead. Through varied bench manipulations by Coach Clerif Roberts of the All Star Team and unforgettable steals and blocks by several of the players of the U.S.C team, the game ended in favour of the All Star Team 51-49. The game was a much better brand of basketball played by the All Star team compared to the previous game against the Supligent Crusaders. Both teams played well-executed defenses and exacting offenses. There was much intensity and drive in this game, making it unforgettable.
