Rain, rain go away.....
This weekend, many of us braved the flash floods, the ridiculous drivers (rain just gave them an excuse for their usual stupidity) and multiple traffic spinouts on the wet, slushy freeways to see it all go down at the Aim High/Kenny Smith Christmas B-Ball Tourney at the Sports Center in Anaheim.
Man...don't we love our kids?
Since many of our 10U and 11U players were out SICK this time and couldn’t play in their divisions this weekend (could folks PLEASE quit coughin’ and blowin’ germs our way, so we can stay well, please???), it was up to our 9U CAVS to represent the younger spectrum of things.
Congrats go out to CAVS 9U for finishing as Second Place Champions this weekend!!
It was a nail-biter (as nail-biting as a 9-year old basketball game can possibly be, realistically, without most of us thinking….gosh, they are SO little and cute!!) on Saturday, December 17th, when CAVS 9U faced off with the Corona Lakers. 9U started off with mistakes and trailed 5-12 at the end of the first quarter. Then, the heavens opened and 9U showed some heart during the second half, earning them a VERY CLOSE victory of 15-14. Way to fight, CAVS 9U!!
Later Saturday afternoon, 9U would meet up with WCA and would suffer a loss 30-12. However, that did not break their spirits. On Sunday, 9U handed it all back to The Coves Finest, earning a victory of 21-15.
However, the effort still placed CAVS 9U in second place, because of Saturday’s loss. Hey…whatever…we’ll take it! It was still a win. 9U enjoyed taking their winner photos with Kenny Smith, himself, in front of their large team trophy.
We are proud of our 9U Champions!!! Go CAVS 9U!!!!
