8th Grade Blue-January 29-30

This was a very productive weekend for our 8th grade Dawgs-Blue team. I saw a lot of improvement throughout the tournament. Although our record was 1-2, I believe we did alot of winning in team achievements. During our first game, against the eventual tournament champion Predators, we started out great giving the Predators all they could handle. Max and Tanner lead the team with their offense. While showing great team defense, Amran, Vance and Josh gave us that extra spark. The 50-39 final score does an injustice to how hard boys played from start to finish. The coaches agreed this was clearly our our best game thus far in this young season. In the second game against E.D.H. Gunner showed dominance in the paint. We showed our offensive firepower with Daniel leading the way. The team showed lots of hustle on both,offense and defense which proved to be too much for E.D.H. as we tallied our first victory. Bryce gave us a moral boost with his all around energy. Our third game was against the Hurricanes. It was a tough fight from start to finish. We played them hard but a few turnovers and miscues held us from recording our second victory. I am pleased with what I saw this weekend. There is a tremendous upside for things to come with this team through hard work. GREAT JOB!
