Deccan Medical posts win

HYDERABAD: Deccan Medical College defeated Flying Asteroids 41-27 in the Ghousuddin memorial basketball tournament, organised by CCOB, at the City College grounds here.

It was a good fight back by DMC which was trailing 9-13 in the first quarter.

But by scoring 16 points in the second quarter, in which the rival did not score even a single point, DMC never looked back and eventually wrapped up the match thanks to crucial points by Keertan Reddy and Suraj Reddy.

For the loser, Suraj (nine points) put up a good show.
