YORK Vikings Basketball Club's Under-13s have started their season with two wins and a defeat.
Can Evirgen, who moved to North Yorkshire from Turkey three months ago, made an impressive debut, scoring 12 points in the opening 46-19 victory over Leeds Tigers.
Captain Adam Carling and Orrin Smith each scored eight points.
York came down to earth when they were sunk 65-12 by Sheffield Sharks but bounced back to beat Hatfield Harriers 35-24 with Karl Sleightholme (12), Evirgen (10) and Carling (4) the main points scorers.
York's next double header is against Barnsley and Leeds at Barnsley on Saturday.
Vikings' U15 and U16 sides both recorded victories over Whickham at the weekend.
