6th Grade Blue-March 19th-20th

6th grade blue played much better as a team in this weekends tournament. We won 2 and lost 1. The first game we started with a full court trap that put us up and we pretty much kept the lead to win by a few. Our guards were passing well and hitting some key outside shots.


The second game we faced a very strong and tall Long Beach team. With our trap we were able to keep the score with in a bucket by the end of the half. We started to play into their game in the second half by trying to out fast break them. We were not able to finish and keep their bigs from scoring and lost by 15. Even though we lost the boys played as good as we have seen to date and feel we could have hung with that team if we slowed it down.

The third game was against the Predators B team and we have never played them. We have been waiting for this match up since the beginning of the season. The boys played their hearts out with great defense and great ball movement. We won by 9 and should have won by more but we managed the clock to make sure we would win. It was a great tournament for the boys with great competition and they did well as a team. Coach Lars and I both feel we are seeing huge improvement in each player and more so as a team.
