Sheffield Sharks - back with a bang against Plymouth Raiders

Sheffield Sharks were back at the EIS tonight - taking on a Plymouth raiders side who had beaten them 95-66 here less than 8 weeks ago in the 4th game of the season.

A much changed and very rejuvenated Sharks side under assistant coach Ariel Parrucci came straight out of the blocks and were always in front of Plymouth, winning 87-78 in the end.

 Colin Sing was a tough physical presence in front of the raiders, right from the start and completed a fabulous 360 layup near the end of the game.
