2008 Explosion News & Notes
|
2008 Snohomish County Explosion (14-10) - The Snohomish County Explosion had a good season in 2008 winning 14 games and losing 10 games. In May, Snohomish County bolstered their frontcourt with the addition of 2006 IBL All-Star Aleksey Adediran and in June, the Explosion was to be more formidable with the return of 2007 All Stars returning from overseas- Rashaad Powell (28.9 points per game last season), and Justin Murray; however, a first round loss in the playoffs has the Explosion now focusing on a game plan for 2009. Snohomish County will again host the IBL playoffs in 2009. July 20th, 2008: News Release- IBL names 2008 All Stars - Jamal Miller and Donald Watts (third time for Watts- as an IBL All Star)
