Final score 112 - 14 ... in a tournament!
Working an elite 8th grade boys holiday tournament this weekend with teams from all up and down the west coast. Yesterday, my first game had a team from Seattle beat a team from L.A. 112-14! In fact, if they hadn't held the ball at the end, they would have won by 100.
After the game, a parent from the losing team walked by and said loudly, "We didn't get a call all game. No wonder we lost." I looked at him and said, "OK, tell you what -just to make up for our bad calls, we'll give your team an extra 97 points. OH WAIT - YOU STILL LOSE!!!"
He didn't think it was too funny, but my partner cracked up.
BTW - the second game had a team from Portland beat a team from the Bay Area by almost 50. What a tournament.
