The spring edition of Lindenwood’s Intramural Basketball season continued Tuesday night over at the new Evans Commons courts. Several different teams competed against one another within one of two divisions. Divisions are split into a competitive league and a recreational. The games brought in quite the crowd including the players’ friends. Fans showed support by cheering with unique chants and homemade signs. A couple of the games on this particular night had the crowd on the edge of their seats as one of the competitive league’s games was won on a last second shot, and a recreational league game had to be decided in overtime.
1. J-Roc and the Rockpile take on Ultimate Alliance on center court at Evans Commons.
2. Alex Rice, member of the Wolfpack, warms up by shooting some pre-game free throws. “We
have a tough team to go against tonight, so I’m getting in an earlier warm-up,” Rice said.
4. Looney Tunes warm-up with a few shooting drills in the
background. Captain of the Ninjas goes over some last minute
details about the rosters with the referees.
5. Players from the competitive league game take a break as the ball is out of play momentarily.
6. Point guard breaks the pressure and goes in for a shot to break the tie
game.
7. Fans of the Ninjas have formed their cheering
section. They look on as their team competes and
tries to mount a comeback.

a quick timeout. They try to come up with a strategy to get back into
this game.
