Team Fiji basketball reps Joshua Fox and Filimoni Waqabaca have been named in the Pacific Games Men’s All Star Team in the Solomon Islands.
Fox and Waqabaca played an instrumental role in Fiji’s gold medal win against Guam by 51-47 in the final yesterday.
22-year-old Waqabaca says the players put in a monumental effort to outplay their highly-rated opponents.
“The game plan coming in was just to slow them down. Guam are a great team and they like to run and shoot threes, but we just tried our best to slow them down and trust in each other.”
Meanwhile, national rep Letava Kenny was named in the Pacific Games Women’s All Stars team.
