Since an opening day defeat to Surrey Scorchers, Sheffield Sharks have gone on a 4 game winning run - the latest being a 86-70 win over Bristol Flyers at the EIS, Sheffield. After a quiet start by the Sharks they killed the second quarter (36-19) and then ket the advantage all the way to the end.

BBL playoff R1 - finely balanced at Sheffield sharks 71-73 Worcester Wolves

It was a game of two halves last night at the EIS, Sheffield for the DBL Sharks Sheffield in their first leg BBL Playoff Quarter Final against Worcester Wolves. The Sharks couldn't buy a basket in the first half and had a very poor shooting record, leaving them fourteen points down at half time 29-43.

After what must have been a stern team talk at half-time from Atiba Lyons, it was Worcester who were calling the timeouts in the second half as the Sharks fought back to leave the game almost even going into the second leg at Worcester tomorrow.

End-to-end thriller between Sheffield Sharks and Newcastle Eagles

The DBL Sharks Sheffield went down to a very narrow 82-84 defeat in the final game of regular season at home Newcastle Eagles whom they'd recently beaten. At half-time another upset was on the card as the Sharks lead 42-37 after being behind early on. The score see-sawed through the rest of the game and came down ultimately to a three-point effort at the death for the Sharks which hit the hoop and left them down on the day but in good shape for the playoffs.

Rashawn Rembert takes an early tumble.
