7th Grade Black-Oakland Rebels Tournament-April 2-3

YBA 43 Team Select 41
Our 1st travel tournament game of the season started a little slow. Team Select got the early lead and we had to fight the whole game to try and get the lead. With 15 seconds left in the game Marcus Ante drilled a 3 point shot to tie the game and force overtime. With 7 seconds left in the game down 1 JB dribbled up the court and passed to Jr who gave it right back to JB for the Game Winner as time ran out! It was our only lead of the ball game.

YBA 37 vs Oakland Rebels 43
Playing our second game the boys came out and played great defense with 4 seconds left in the half, Sean Boyle stole the ball to give YBA a 1 point half time lead. The second half the Rebels pressed and got a small lead that they were able to beat us. Short handed the boys fought and competed.

YBA 58 vs. D1 Allstars 69
We played pretty evenly most of the game until Big Mike went down with an injury. Under sized but not without a fight YBA kept playing strong! Wes "the Beast" had some strong moves and Sean Boyle drilled some deep threes to keep us within striking distance. In the end we lost but fought with they guys we had as several of our steady players were out with injuries.

Overall Proud of the way we competed in Oakland this weekend.
