Note: The original tournament schedule was changed around.
On Friday night the Shore Sharks started off their Virginia Beach trip with a bang. The 14U team started it off with a 40 point triumph over the Virginia JR Prep All-Stars hitting on all cylinders. The full court press and execution on offense overwhelmed their opponent. The HS team picked up right where the younger team left off with a 15 point win over the Cen-Pen Cyclones. The HS team wore down the Cyclones by getting out on the break and great weakside help on defense.
Saturday, the 14U team had a similar showing in the morning game against a much bigger Virginia Wolfpack team. They followed that up with a win against the Maryland Chosen Ones, holding off their late game rally. The HS ran into a very tough Maryland Spurs Elite team, losing to them in the morning. In the afternoon, the HS team lost a heartbreaker, 41-43, against the North Carolina Ocean Potion Suns. The game was in a hostile enviornment and it was one of the most exciting and intense games in program history.
Sunday morning, on short notice, the schedule was changed around and the 14U team was matched up in the final four against the DC Hoyas, who were also 3-0. The game was back and forth with the crowd against us. The game at halftime was tied 17-17, but the Hoyas pulled it out in the end winning by 5. However, the fraternity of Sharks came together with HS team showing up a halftime and supporting the younger kids.
Overall, the weekend was a success and the Sharks had quality bonding time on and off the court. Every player contributed to an awesome weekend of games and fun.
Special thanks to:
Mr. Dzugan for driving the team van back and forth to different locations and Mr. Anderson for keeping the scorebook at every game.
Thank you to everyone involved for putting together a special trip.
