Good early practice today. We started early, finished at 5. Got a lot of shooting in, plus on-ball defense, defensive positioning, ballhandling. Good workout for Ryan Higashionna, Javan Montiho, Joshua Roberts and Kali'a Mielke. Finishing up early gave me a chance to get to work early and see Tanielu Afe play for the Farrington JV Governors at Roosevelt. Also saw Micah Visoria and the ohana there (Isaiah plays on the Farrington varsity), as well as Walter Berthold (and dad Mark).
It was a close JV game, Govs won 46-43 as Tani made some clutch free throws down the stretch. The varsity game was intense. Isaiah scored 15 to lead Farrington in a 61-49 win. Another Thunder baller, Mick Colling, led Roosevelt with 18 points. It was a 17-point lead for Farrington before Roosevelt cut the lead to 54-49 with 2 minutes left. Rough Riders also have Brent Quackenbush (reserve forward). Great to see the Thunder excelling at the prep level!
