The Halifax Hurricanes clinched the National Basketball League of Canada Championships against the London Lightning Monday night in Halifax, winning 125-117. The nail-biting Game 7 started off well with the Hurricanes up by 11 points at the half. Levingston says the Hurricanes saw an average attendance of about 2,000 people per game, but crowds increased into the playoffs. It's quite a difference over the end of last year's season when the Rainmen forfeited the championship game to the Windsor Express. The exciting fourth quarter had the Hurricanes come back and end up just three points ahead with 1:32 left to go.
