The match had an exhilarating end with the London Lions pursuing a massive comeback in the last quarter. The match however ended with a loss to the home side 88-92. The support shown from the students was suburb with numerous shout outs from the commentator inside the venue. The students vocals and dancing in the stands was very entertaining and they even managed to get a video clip of their support tweeted by the London Lions! An e-mail was also received from the organisers of the event thanking Riverside School for their support on the night. Thank you to all those students and staff who were part of the trip and the students’ parents for your continued support.
