The lone team playing this weekend was the 16U boys, participating in the widely-popular Rumble in Philly. After two consecutive runner-up finishes at their past two tournaments, the boys were looking to collar their 3rd championship for the season.......
Playing shorthanded with seven bodies on Saturday due to prior commitments by a few players, they began pool play with a much-deserved win over brawny and athletic SJ Blitz, 54-49. After having a 18-point halftime lead, the boys finished their Saturday with a closer-than-needed victory over Bucks County Sonics, 53-52. After finishing as the 1st seed in their pool, bracketplay began on Sunday with an 8-team single elimination tournament......
Sunday's quarterfinal game was a defensive showcase for the team, as they shutdown Delaware Elite, 54-32. In the semifinals, Coach Savercool and the boys clinched their spot in the championship game by defeating TP Panthers, 65-48. In the championship game versus nationally-recognized Team Final, the 16U boys proved they can play with anyone if they put their minds to it....
After shaking their early timidness which had them in a 12-point deficit, SCS closed in quickly in the latter parts of the second half but fell short in the heated championship game, 71-67. It was a successful weekend for the 16U boys, and though they fell short, it was a great warm-up for July's live period....one in which they could surely meet up with Team Final again at the Summer Classic East in King of Prussia.
