AAU Championships-Part 2!

The AAU Championships are officially over. Our 16 Red team did fantastic. They won everything the first two days. They then advanced to the Championship Division and ended up placing 9th overall! Our 17 White team played great as well. They ended up getting 3rd place in the Consolation Division. Congratulations to both of these teams on a fantastic season.

We have three more teams still practicing and preparing for their final tournament. Our 14 Red, 15 Red, and 17 Red teams all play next week in Miami for Junior Nationals (Juniors Olympics). We are excited to watch them and see how they finish up in Miami.

We have two teams that just finished play in Orlandp for the AAU Championships.

Our 12 Red team did great, going 2-1 the 1st and 2nd days and making it into the Classic Bracket. Here is a picture of the girls getting excited about the tournament!

Our 13 Red team has also been in Orlando for the tournament. They played well all four days, making it to the finals of the Consolation Bracket.

Congratulations to both teams on a successful year!

Our 16 Red and 17 White teams are headed to Orlando as we speak, to begin play tomorrow at AAUs. We wish them the best of luck, and can't wait to see how they do.
