Kalani Varsity League
Good battle against one of my favorite people in the world, Spartans D-II coach Richard Miyasaka. His guys hustled and made a run in the final few minutes to make it close. We played well in spurts, but made good and bad decisions that were uncharacteristic, and some of that was due to Maryknoll II's great defensive hustle late in the game.
Radyn iced the win with free throws down the stretch. Kapaa hit some big FTs too. Chase continues to play some of his best basketball in the past few games, so balanced and versatile. Aggressive without being too greedy on offense and defense. His transition game and CONTROL of speed were terrific during a run we had in the first half.
We're 5-1 in Kalani League now, playing good enough to win, but not a dominant team. Yet. We're getting there bit by bit and I hope today's game helps us get smarter in the future. When the humidity and heat are horrible, IQ and teamwork are more important than ever. Tenchi had back-to-back games last night and then came to this game immediately after a practice at school. But he persevered and so did the entire team. Way to hang in there, Thunder.
Lineup: Sierra, Tenchi, Jance, Kapaa, Radyn, Kali'a, Felcris, Chase,
Next: Wednesday, 6:00 pm - H1 Thunder vs. Hawaii Baptist, Le Jardin League.
Wednesday, 7:10 pm - H1 Thunder vs. Hoops4Christ, CAL 13U Gold, Kilauea gym.
I'll be at Le Jardin and hopefully we have enough players since most of our reserves will be busy at other practices or at the CAL 13U game. Coach Bino and Coach Larry will be at the 13U game.
WE LUB THIS GAAAME!!
