In 2015, the Werribee Devils senior men's basketball team competed in the State Championship division of the Big V competition. It was their third straight season in the top tier, led by coach Mark Hughes. The Devils started well, winning the first two games, but then came a horror 12 game losing streak, consigning this season to the "one to forget" basket.
The Devils won 5 out of 24 games and finished 13th. Below is a week-by-week summary of the season, as well as player and team stats.

In their Round 2 clash,
the Devils came from behind with a big last quarter to snatch the win.
Unfortunately there would be no such result on this day. They trailed by nine
at three quarter time, but McKinnon, assisted with the absence of Devils Cobb
and Harding, made sure of the victory with some good defence, keeping the
Devils to 11 points and squaring the season series at 1-1.

Ringwood had six players in double figures, shot 50% from the field, connected with 11 three-pointers and made 23 free throws.

The season hit a new low against Waverley. Just one
day after losing by 40 out at Ringwood, the Devils came home to face the
Falcons. A 10-29 first quarter set the tone of the match and the Devils were
never going to recover from there. There were many things similar to the
previous match. Waverley had six scorers in double figures, shot at over 50%
(40-76) from the field and made 21 free throws. It was all just too easy.

The Devils were back at
home the next week against the Broncos and were hoping to improve on the 24-point
loss that came from their meeting earlier in the season. Things weren’t looking
promising at half time, with the Devils trailing by 19. However, they managed
to turn things around in the second half, winning the third and fourth quarters
and even though it was still a loss, it wasn’t nearly as bad as it could have
been.

However, it had been so long since they had been in that position, one got the sense that the match wasn’t over until the final buzzer, regardless of the lead. The Eagles mounted a challenge in the final quarter but the Devils held on to record their first win since Round 2.

hold on with a couple of free throws right at the death.

2nd 11-24 (L13)
3rd 29-26 (W3)
4th 28-24 (W4)
A day after their
near-comeback against Hawthorn, the Devils had to travel and back up with a
contest with Waverley. They were off right from the start, scoring 11 points in
each of the first two quarters and the defence was leaking, resulting in a
32-point half time deficit. They flicked the switch to the ‘on’ position in the
second half, scoring 57 points and winning both quarters, but still came away
with a 25 point loss.
Top performers:
* Jordan Hughes (15 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists)
* David Cobb (13 points, 11 rebounds)
* Cameron Hutton (13 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists)

4th 22-24 (L2)
At the forefront of the
Devils minds would have been avoiding a repeat of the 40 point shellacking they
received from the Hawks earlier in the season. Werribee started well, leading
by a point at quarter time. While they lost the next three quarters, the effort
and endeavor was definitely there, they logged their highest score for the
season (93) and were certainly not disgraced by a 16-point defeat.
Top performers:
* Jordan Hughes (28 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists)
* Darcy Harding (22 points, 5 rebounds)
* David Cobb (15 points, 14 rebounds, 4 steals)

4th 23-26 (L3)
The Devils season
came to a close with a home victory against Eltham. Despite losing Darcy
Harding two minutes into the match, Jordan Hughes more than made up for his
absence, firing in 36 points. The Devils led all night and made sure they saw
outgoing coach Mark Hughes off with a win, a positive way to end a
disappointing season. 2nd 15-13 (W2)
3rd 19-15 (W4)
4th 23-26 (L3)
Top performers:
* Jordan Hughes (36 points, 9 rebounds)
