Team Flight advanced to the Nike All-Hong Kong Youth Basketball League finals by routing favourites Team Force in the second leg of their semifinal clash at Southorn Stadium, Wan Chai.
Having lost the opener 67-74, Flight - led by the Jing Ying tournament's most valuable player So Yi-chun - ran out 93-63 winners on Wednesday to book their place in the boys' under-19 finals by a massive 23-point margin.
They will take on Team Air Hawk, which eliminated Team Air Max in the other semifinal, in the two-leg championship clash at the stadium this weekend. Air Hawk lost Wednesday's game 67-69, but went through on aggregate, having defeated Air Max 92-80 in the first game.
Flight captain So said his team's high field-goal percentage in the first quarter was crucial to their victory.
'We were really aggressive and focused throughout the game and everyone played really hard,' said the 19-year-old forward.
'We played very good defence and showed great team spirit. We also got a lot of rebounds which helped us to dominate the game.'
Force failed to adjust to their opponents' pressing game and committed many turnovers. Flight led 58-37 at half-time.
