Harlem Ambassadors dazzle crowd<br />

By RICHARD ALEXANDER<br />

Navalog editor<br />

<strong>The</strong> Harlem Ambassadors<br />

delighted about 100<br />

adults and children of all<br />

ages Tuesday night in an<br />

exhibition game against a<br />

<strong>Navy</strong> pickup team at Gym<br />

302 at Naval Station (NAVS-<br />

TA) <strong>Newport</strong>.<br />

<strong>The</strong> evening opened with<br />

a challenge game between<br />

the <strong>Newport</strong> Intramural<br />

All-Stars and the New London,<br />

Conn., Intramural All-<br />

Stars from the U.S. Submarine<br />

Base, Groton.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Connecticut team<br />

won 50-48 and received a<br />

trophy from Morale, Welfare<br />

and Recreation. Afterwards,<br />

patrons could stay to see the<br />

Ambassadors in action.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Ambassadors visited<br />

<strong>Newport</strong> at the invitation of<br />

<strong>US</strong>O New England.<br />

“It was a great night for<br />

fa<strong>mil</strong>ies,” Command Master<br />

Chief Don Ouellette<br />

said. “<strong>The</strong>re was a lot of<br />

exhibition basketball, and<br />

the kids got to get out on<br />

the floor to shoot baskets<br />

with their dads, too.”<br />

After warm-ups by the<br />

<strong>Navy</strong> team, the Ambassadors<br />

came out on the<br />

floor and were introduced<br />

with fanfare. With dazzling<br />

ball handling skills and<br />

monster slam dunks, the<br />

visitors pulled way ahead in<br />

the score. But with a little<br />

scoreboard tampering,<br />

<strong>Navy</strong> tied the score late in<br />

the second half.<br />

and ball-handling. Tiffara<br />

outscored the men, he said.<br />
