CKaTT's Major Bantam
participated in their 1st sanctioned tournament in Barrie,
Ontario this past weekend and churned out a Bronze medal with a
total TEAM effort. They were denied at a chance to
play for a Gold medal with a loss to the Mississauga Monarchs by
8 seconds and a 1 point differential. Coach Glenn mentioned, "It was
TEAM basketball from the beginning to the end. It was what
Basketball is about and what it should be about. No superstars,
a consistent sharing of the ball." The Team went through
Barrie, Nepean, and Cornwall.
Even Sloan Campbell the site
convener mentioned, "You have some NICE guards." With
two guards
suffering with a bout of the flu, one player being ejected, cut
lips and bruised knees the bench had to be activated in most of
the games. Also of note are seven of this year's 12 man roster are all
new to Rep basketball. Assistant Coach Graydon said, "We are so
deep in the bench, we can put anyone in and it doesn't effect
our game flow." Assistant Coach Romy also mentioned, "We were
able to run some plays, watch the offence come together and have
everyone participate in team basketball."
