Apollo beat Axel for third straight win, 198.92-173.36

Apollo extended their win streak to three games with a hard-fought win over Axel, securing a 198.92-173.36 victory. Apollo nabbed an early 15.10-point lead on Thursday. Axel bounced back to take the lead during the early round of games on Sunday, powered by Lamar Jackson (15.46 points) and Stefon Diggs (14.8). Not to be deterred, Apollo pulled it together later that night, as Travis Kelce (35.5 points) and Drue Tranquill (6.5) put them back in the lead for good.
