And we'll keep on fightin', til the end...

Jack's team played in the championship game last night. And wow, what a game! The boys on both teams played hard and fast from the first minute. The score stayed neck and neck through most of regulation. At the final buzzer, we watched our opponents celebrate their win by 2 points. But wait... the refs add .4 seconds back on the clock, and give our guys possession. Nick passes in to Yaseen, and Y hits a 2-pointer at the buzzer to tie it up and force the game into overtime!















After double overtime, with about 5 seconds left, our opponents took possession of the ball and set up for a three-point shot to tie up the score again. Jack ran in and blocked the shot with one hand, with the other raised in victory! League Champs!
