5-3 (4-0)

With our win over Estelline on Friday night, we got our conference record to 4-0 and we are 5-3 overall.  The guys played extremely hard the entire night, and we were able to mix up our defenses a little bit to keep them off-balance.  I was very pleased with our effort on the defensive end of the floor and we got things rolling on the offensive end a little bit to take some pressure off our defense.  It was fun to watch the guys play, as they were making hustle plays, getting on the floor after loose balls, and just really playing loose and playing well together.

What's on tap:
This week we have one game, Friday, at home against Deubrook. The Dolphins are currently 4-2 overall and 3-0 in the conference.  Last year, the Dolphins handed us a 1 point loss on a last second shot.  This year, Deubrook is a very athletic team with good size and good shooters so they are definitely going to present a challenge for us.  We will go over things this week and get our scouting reports out and the gameplan nailed down and be ready for the challenge.  It will be another opportunity for us to play together, play loved, and compete with and for one another.

4th & 5th Tourney:
This weekend, we hosted a 4th and 5th grade boys basketball tournament in Elkton.  We had a total of 16 teams here and had 4 games going on every hour from 9am to 3pm.  It was a very busy, productive, and fun day.  I could not be happier with our guys for the way they stepped up and helped ref, run clock and book, run the concessions, and then especially the help cleaning up.  It was a true success and only because of the volunteers and our guys stepping up to the plate like they did.

PLAY LOVED
