The Basketball Academy played Sigma Sixth Colchester academy at home on the 3/11/2021 the 4th game into the ABL season. Both teams meeting for the first time this season as Mayfield entered the game with a record of 2-1 and Colchester at a 3-0 record, Mayfield looked to hand them their first loss of the season. The first half would see a back and forth battle between the two sides with Mayfield down 1 going into the second half at 35-34 in favour of Sigma sixth. A strong third quarter with good defensive plays would put Mayfield up 62 – 54 with one quarter left to play. Sigma sixth came back in the fourth with 14 seconds left to play, Sigma coming out of a time out nail a 3 pointer to put Mayfield up by 1 point at 82-81. A time out called by Coach Donnie allowed for a possession where sigma was forced to foul, vital free throws in the hands of first year Sam I. would put Mayfield up at 83-81 to seal the game. The second-year players of the academy Derek O. and Jason H. led the charge in the win over Sigma Sixth.
