What for many players would have been the dunk of the year — if not of their entire career — was for Norfolk State’s Christian Ings a couple weeks ago not even the dunk of the night. When the 6-foot-2 Ings drove right, soared and flushed the ball over Morgan State’s 6-9, 230-pound Daniel Akitoby with about 90 seconds left in the Spartans’ win over the Bears Feb. 24, he was just setting the stage for what was coming next.

Solihull Moors had to battle for the points against 10-man Fleet and it took the home side until five minutes from the end to get the crucial breakthrough. Manny Duku netted twice for the hosts, with a Kwame Thomas penalty evening up the scores plus a second yellow card for Toby Edser on 51 minutes in between. Fleet took to the field with three changes, Mustapha Olagunju back from suspension along with Lewis Page and Aaron Cosgrave. They replaced Anthony Stewart, Josh Passley and Franklin Domi.

The Spitfires took flight with a goal in each half to send the Fleet spinning to defeat in Hampshire in the final league fixture under lights this season. There was just the one starting tweak for the Fleet with Ben Chapman in for Aaron Cosgrave in an otherwise unchanged squad of 18. After a slow start, Fleet could have been in front on 11 minutes from a set-piece.

Fleet were left to rue a mad five minutes at the end of the first-half as Tamworth came from behind to lead 3-1, a lead that was ultimately good enough to take all three points despite a close finish after the returning Haydn Hollis put through his own net. It was one of two own goals of the afternoon after Alex Lankshear had headed past Mark Cousins in the first-half in a game that was initially lit up by a fine George Moncur strike that suggested more to come from the Fleet.

NORFOLK — It was a night of loud moments and big emotional swings for Old Dominion Saturday at Chartway Arena. The Monarchs drove for resounding dunks, got 3-pointers from unexpected sources, and were cheered on by a throng of towel-waving fans doing their best to push them over the top in the final home game of the season. When Sean Durugordon tipped in his own miss to give ODU its first lead, with 4:22 left, it appeared the Monarchs might get there.
