Before this game, Evan Schell received the Sportsmanship Award for his sportsmanlike character while scoring at a 26.25 ppg himself. Commissioner Spalding presented Gage McCracken with the George Gervin Award for 2022 because of a calculation error he made last year as he lead the league in scoring in our spring league last year with a 30.8 average. The commissioner joked before the game that he wanted to have an overtime and he almost got his wish as a player for FC missed a crucial foul shot with one second left and time ran out.
