MLN Newswire - www.mlntherawfeed.com - Selden, NY.  Miguel "Slim" Milliem had his second consecutive double-double and led the Strong Island Sound to a 120-111 victory over the Quebec City Kebekwa at Suffolk Community College.  Coming off the bench at the start of the second quarter with his team down by three, Milliem ignited the Sound and the crowd with high-flying slams and blocks.  But things did not appear to be going the home team's way at the start of the contest.  The Kebs scored the first 10 points of the game before the Sound got off the board.

 

But, the Sound came back and it was 35-32 after one.   In the second quarter, the Sound outscored the Keb 37-23 and led at half 69-58.

 

QC went on an 11-0 run to start the third and took a 2 point lead.  They were outscoring the Sound 27-9 before the home team found their touch outside and the score was tied at 92 at the end of three.  Milliem, 30 points, 15 rebounds, 9 blocks was all over the court and was instrumental in giving the Sound second opportunities with 9 offensive rebounds.  "Earlier this season, I had toe and wrist injuries that held me back," Milliem said. "Now I'm feeling very comfortable." 

 

Williams scored 17 points, had 8 rebounds and 7 assists for the Sound.
