Forfeit win for Thunder 13U

Forfeit win for Thunder 13U over 808 West. They didn't have enough players, so they had a 14-year-old guy (#32) suit up. We didn't know this was going on, though, and we played through the game like normal. (Close loss.) We played so sloppy today, but a game is a game and we'll learn from it. Even if it's technically an exhibition and doesn't "count".

It's really interesting how much better we are with Jerry and/or Kalai or Tanielu or Chris there. Having that strong rebounder/defender under the basket makes a huge difference for us. When Jerry arrived late in the game (from his other game), he grabbed a bunch of offensive rebounds immediately. Winning today against a team using an older kid would've been nice. I liked our hustle and grit. No quit in us.

But boy, do we need to clean up some mess. Working on left-handed drills (everything) at every practice! Room to get better as we enter the Aiea 13U Tournament (Wed-Sat).
