Lahh Woods discusses the vision of Front Court Masters as The AC 66er's Play
On August 17, 2024, the Brooklyn Bridge beat the Atlantic City 66ers in a rout. The 66ers looked a little nervous. Brooklyn jumped on them from the start and went on to win the tournament in the 60-plus age group.
The 66ers redeemed themselves in the consolation game on Sunday, winning by more than 40 points and the game was stopped with 2 minutes left.
