Bull City Legacy suppress Raleigh Revolt 138-124


March 14, 2015  Durham. N.C.-- The Bull City Legacy and the Raleigh Revolt squared off Saturday afternoon in a very entertaining Tobacco Road Basketball League matchup.  

Raleigh's Charles Gamble (Barton College) was a five-alarm blaze thoughout, helping the Revolt build a 12-point advantage after one quarter.  The Legacy were without several of their post players for the game, meaning the Legacy guards would have to step up in a major way.  

J'Mell Walters (NCCU), Jamario Clayton,  (Univ. Hawaii, Hilo) and Desmond Bunn (Shaw) all had impressive outings for Bull City; allowing the Legacy to tie the score 63-63, heading into halftime.  

Bull City had a 4-point edge after three quarters, but Raleigh's Charles Gamble would try to will the Revolt to a win.  Gamble finished with a game-high 40 points-- while Jared Grady (Delaware St.) chipped in with 23 points-- but that wasn't enough.

J'Mell Walters scored 23 points and dished out 9 assists for the Legacy.    Desmond Bunn poured in 27 points, Jamario Clayton went for 24 points, and Ian Gregory (St. Thomas Univ.) had a team-high 28 points with 10 rebounds and 4 assists; in a 138-124 Bull City Victory.  

With the win Bull City improves to 6-3 on the season, while Raleigh drops to 5-3.  Raleigh will host Charlotte Elite on March, 22nd and Bull City will host arch rival Cary Invasion on March 28th.
