808 Basketball (girls) coach Hinano Higa has asked if our JV and Varsity teams would be willing to scrimmage her teams on Tuesday and/or Friday. I leave this up to the Thunder players. I think it's always good to help other teams, male or female, when we can. 808 is a talented group that works as hard as we do and I have utmost respect for Coach Hinano and her staff and players. But I do know that a few of our guys may have reservations about playing against a girls team, so I am leaving this up to you guys.
FYI, many of 808's players play for Roosevelt, and a few of them have been All-State selections, including their current standout, Keala Quinlan, a 6-foot-1 gunner.
Please respond on this by Sunday so I can give Coach Hinano an answer. 808 travels to mainland tournaments each summer, so she's trying to get them game-ready against taller, more physical teams.
The scrimmage(s) would be held at Roosevelt HS gym.
