If you thought the Forestville women's 31-point victory was impressive, the men's team had to one-up them, winning their game by 55. 

As can be expected from looking at the final scoreline, scoring was an issue for the Rockets, and as a result, their top scorer - Steven Parfitt - registered just 11 points. 

The Eagles had a much easier time with the ball, led by Daniel Johnson who recorded a monster triple-double: 27 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists.
