It's all about the game!

...2nd Annual Canyon Summer Challenge.

- July, 2007.

5 Venom teams participated in the tournament.  The Venom 12U played up and entered the 9th grade division.  They tied for 5th place with Tucson Heat.  They played really well and it’s a great preview for the year to come.

 

The Venom 13U played and won the 9th grade division.  The 9th grade division was great because we had 2 teams from New Mexico and one team from California.  It’s always fun to play teams you have never played before. 

 

The venom had 2 teams in the High School Girls division.  Both teams did really well.  The teams tied in 7th place out of 9 teams.  The good news is that the games they lost were just by a few points.  Considering most of the players are new from this summer. 

 

The Venom also had a team in the women’s division.  A team formed of ex-college players went undefeated until the championship game where they lost by 6 points to the All-Stars.  With only 5 players, Promise and Tevis from the 13U team helped out.  They both scored 2 points and did really well.

 

Overall, the tournament was a great success.  We 40 teams participated from New Mexico, California and all 4 corners of Arizona.
