Strong defensive effort all over the court in this high noon game. A lot of the guys got there at game time or a bit later because of the commute from Aiea (intermediate tournament).
The offensive chemistry is coming along great against zone defenses. I already like what we've done against man defenses. But it's the defensive chemistry that really shines for this team. This is our quickest, most tenacious 15U team as far as defense goes — when most of our Thunder are present. It's also our strongest with big guys like Chris, Ray and Kali‘a. Chris wasn't there today. Neither was Tani.
But we had enough — 11 strong today — to stay fresh, keep pushing the ball and keep pressing until midway through the second half. Good work.
Kalia sat the second half with a sore back. I held him out as a precaution.
Thunder are now 6-0 in this league.
Lineup: Felcris Jay Corpuz Ahadain, Gabriel Porras, Chase Santos, Josh M DE Jesus, Ryan Higashionna, Sierra Murobayashi, Keanu Pratt, Raydyn Kaleikini, Kali'a Mielke, Kapaa Nishimura, Kanehe Nishimura.
Next: Monday, 5:00 pm - Shooting practice (optional), Makiki Park.
WE LUB THIS GAME!
