The Saskatchewan Rattlers swept their home-and-home tilt against the Hamilton Honey Badgers with a low-scoring Saturday evening victory in the steel city. Due to troubles at the official scorer's table late in the game, it's difficult to determine exactly what the final score was, but it can be safely said that the Rattlers won by 15±2 points. Again, the league is having some ongoing hiccups with stats, so we have to be patient. The Rattlers didn't get much from their big guns like Marlon Johnson and Tavrion Dawson, but instead relied on help from their bench. Big Chad Posthumus (pronounced like "posthumous") had a solid presence on this evening; a domineering dunk in the third quarter made clear that he's still got a lot to contribute in his living years. The Rattlers offensive displays did not, however, do much to mute the home crowd, which was paltry and verged on silence even when the Honey Badgers were up. The win is the Rattlers third in a row, a streak that started with their May 11 road victory over Guelph. For once, it seems, Ontario has been very good for Saskatchewan.
