*** NEW PICTURES ADDED FROM MSA State Tournament ***
The season comes to an end with a 1 point loss to the eventual STATE CHAMPION JFC 98 Green. Congratulations to JFC 98 Green on their season. They played hard and never quit fighting for what they earned but rest assured; we will see them next year for a rematch.
Even with the disappointing loss in the State Championship the accomplishments of the girls is simply amazing this year. At the beginning of the season the team was the merger of kids from 3 different clubs in the Rankin area ranging from 9 to 11 years old; yes 9. Many had never played together and several only against eachother.
Coach Allen Anderson brought the girls together and forged a team unity focused on parents, kids, and coach. The fall built defense and the spring offense. The team won five tournament Championships and two tournament Finalists thus placing in 58% of their 12 tournaments and a streak of 4 straight finals in the spring.
See other accomplishments below and keep your eyes open for new picture postings and Picture of the Week votes to come.
