Moon sets new CEBL record for most points in single game as Stingers beat Bandits

Xavier Moon set the new CEBL Record for most points in a single game by scoring 39 to propel the Edmonton Stingers past the Fraser Valley Bandits 91-77 in CEBL action on Tuesday.

The reigning two-time CEBL MVP added six rebounds and four assists for league-leaders Edmonton. Moon also scored the last five points of the game with a three-pointer and an Elam Ending lay-up to cap off an impressive performance.

Brandon Gilbeck led Fraser Valley with 20 points, two more than Shaquille Keith. The Bandits, who remained fifth in the eight-team league despite the loss, are now in a three-game losing streak.

Edmonton (10-1) and Fraser Valley (5-5) will meet again on Wednesday and Friday, these times at the Expo Centre in Edmonton. Those games will be the last two the Stingers are going to play in the regular-season. Before that, they'll host the Saskatchewan Rattlers on Monday.

Wigginton scores Elam Ending 3-pointer for Honey Badgers

Lindell Wigginton scored an Elam Ending three-pointer to give the Hamilton Honey Badgers an 80-78 win over the Guelph Nighthawks in CEBL action on Tuesday.

Cody John had 24 points from the bench to lead Hamilton, with only himself and Wigginton, who had 20, scoring in the double-digits zone for the winning side. Ahmed Hill led Guelph with 24, one more than Cat Barber.

But the Nighthawks were far from beat. They were two points away from claiming their third win of the season as Barber was fouled when scoring a layup and added the free-throw point to tie the game at 78.

The only problem for Guelph's pretensions is that Wigginton had more in store. The MVP contender scored his fifth three-pointer of the evening as Hamilton reached the 80-point target.

Hamilton (9-3), second in the standings, will stay on the road when they face the Niagara River Lions next at the Meridian Centre on Tuesday. Guelph (2-8), who sits seventh in the eight-team league, will also visit the River Lions in their next game on Friday.
