Here are highlights from the action between Koinonia Academy and the Academy of Urban Leadership at the 2016 Raritan Bay Summer League in South Amboy.

In the nightcap of the Friday quadrupleheader at the 2016 Raritan Bay Summer League run at the South Amboy Middle-High School, the Academy of Urban Leadership from Perth Amboy took on Koinonia Academy of Plainfield. In a game where both teams struggled offensively, the Jaguars used full court pressure to produce steals for layups to jump out to a 12-2 lead with six minutes left in the half.

Koinonia Academy would battle back though as the Seraphs scored 7 of the last 11 points of the first half, and then scored 11 of the first 15 points of the second half to pull within four at 24-20 with just under a minute to play. However, AUL would prevail though by scoring on a putback with 36 seconds to play, and then connected on a three from the left corner with 15.6 seconds remaining to wrap up the hard fought, 29-20 victory.
