CLEAN SWEEP

Season 2005/06 saw the Eagles executing a clean sweep of the BBL Championship (64 points, 2 ahead of the Scottish Rocks ), BBL Trophy (beating Leicester Riders 71-50), BBL Cup (beating London Towers 83-69), and finally completed the "sweep" with a 83-68 over the Scottish Rocks to win the BBL Championship Play Off Final. Eagles player/coach Fab Flournoy was MVP in the final with a double-double of 17 points and rebounds.

In addition, Flournoy picked up the BBL Coach of the Year and former Villanova Wildcat, Andrew Sullivan, was voted BBL Player of the Year. Flournoy, Sullivan and Andrew Bridge were also members of the bronze medal winning England team in the 2006 Commonwealth Games during the 2005/06 season.
