Richmond-upon-Thames Coll-ege's basketball academy have qualified for the U18 league play-offs for the first time in four years.

They secured top spot on the table with an easy 100-66 victory at Southampton Trailblazers on Saturday.

Richmond controlled proceedings from the start with Henry Wilkins helping himself to 48 points.

Richmond scorers: Wilkins 43, Othman 23, Charles 13, Walden 11, Szyszka 10.

Some of the gloss of their achievement was taken away by poor performance on Sunday when Richmond were very much second best in their 71-53 home defeat by Omega London.

A lack of proper inside players proved costly and Omega took advantage of their huge advantage under the basket to land many easy scores.

Ahmed Othman's injury in the second half then significantly limited Richmond's ability to penetrate the Omega defence.

Richmond scorers: Adeluola 20, Wilkins 17, Othman 7, Blankvort 4, Prazmo 3, Szyszka 2.
