Cary, NC – Playoff basketball is coming to Cary on Friday June 24, 2011. The Cary Invasion, 9-0 in their inaugural season, will face a to-be-determined opponent in the first round of the CBL Playoffs at Herb Young Community Center.
Uptempo, Big & Fast
If you haven’t had a chance to go to a game, the Invasion is a big, fast team and plays an uptempo, exciting game.
CBL plays an NBA clock (4 quarters, 48 minutes). Scores routinely crack into three digits.
All the players in the league are high-skill. Many have played in the NCAA or European leagues.
Invasion Rolls Over Fayetteville
On Friday night, the Invasion rolled over the Fayetteville Crossover 112-99 at HYCC. Former NCCU standout Jonathan Moore led all scorers with 27 points and 9 rebounds. Former Clemson guard Chris Poole electrified the crowd with 16 points and 12 assists for the Invasion. Six players scored in double figures for Cary.
