13U: H1 Thunder 38, South Coast (Calif.) 25

LAS VEGAS — Strong win at Dula Gym for the Thunder in a bounce-back game after the loss on Friday. We went back to the platoon system in the first half, got strong play from our starters and decent play from our reserves. South Coast is a TALL team from Orange County that can shoot the 3, as Coach Roy and I saw last night in their game against LA Valley.

That preparation helped us. We didn't allow their gunners to get many open looks. Superb defense by our Thunder, and we went strong to the basket against their 6-4 center. Great ball movement. Smart recognition by the guys of mismatches. Our reserves were key to the win, giving our starters quite a bit of rest.

Bomboocha props to our lineup: Kyle Moraga, Tanielu Mosi Afe, Chris Afe, Jared Elwin, Kalai Kuia, Kali'a Mielke, Joshua de Jesus (Josh), Ryan Higashionna, Javan Montiho (Julie Montiho), Felcris Jay Corpuz (Last King), Manoa Kuali‘i-Moe.

Now we're rested as best we can be for our first-round championship-bracket game. We play the Ivy All-Stars (Calif.) at 8:00 pm (Pacific time) at Heinrich YMCA Community Center, gym 2. We win, we go to the semifinals on Sunday.

WE LUB THIS GAAAAAMMME! Boxscore added 1/13/14
