OBL 13U Division, Manoa gym
New venue for the league just for a few dates, which is good since Manoa is just a short drive away for most of our team and a shorter trek for our families in Pearl City and Ewa. The guys played strong halfcourt offense, showing more patience and precision than they did on Saturday. The big plus for us was Kapaa returning to the court.
He's far from 100% with the injured ankle, but he played on guts and heart and was huge factor on the press and on the boards against a tall Kalakaua team. Our overall defense keeps getting better, especially our fullcourt pressure.
Colin had a superb game defensively, scoring on a big transition play in the second half. We led all the way, but we almost gave it away at the end with some sloppy decisions. But overall the effort was excellent and we're getting smarter as a team in 13U.
Ryan is starting to look like his old self again since returning from his ankle injury. Big difference for us in the backcourt with his heady, savvy decision-making.
Today's lineup: Walter Berthold, Josh Roberts, Thomas Baptiste, Ryan Higashionna, Colin Ramos, Kapaa Nishimura, Joshua de Jesus, Felcris Jay Corpuz Ahadain.
Mark A. Berthold, Tanner Takahashi, Arlene Higashionna, Ray-Marlyn Ramos, Lehua Nishimura, Roy Moraga.
WE LUB THIS GAME!
