I worked probably the best game I've seen all year last night. The kids were incredible! The gym was full! And neither coach said a word to me all night!
League Championship game - Team A comes out on a tear and takes an early 9-0 lead with a couple of three's. But Team B follows with a barrage of their own three's, roars back and ties it at 20 by halftime.
In the second half, things heat up! Kid for A hits a 3 and gets fouled for the 4 point play. Team B makes a run and goes up by 5. But Team A, not to be be denied, ties the game at 41. 30 seconds left, A's ball when B makes a great steal but steps on the sideline. A inbounds the ball and A23 hits a baseline jumper with 14 seconds left, nothing but net! B's last effort results in a turnover and A wins 43-41! The Magic are the 9-10 year-old PeeWee League Champs!
Most fun I've had all year!
