Our 7th grade A and B squads came together as one unit and set the tone early against Eastern Hills. We came out locked in and didn’t give up a single bucket for the first 18 minutes. That kind of focus and toughness allowed us to take a 26–2 lead into halftime.

After that, we didn’t let up. From the first whistle to the last, our kids played with energy, discipline, and complete trust in each other. We finished the game 62–8. That’s a total team win.

Kayden Adams, Bobby Butler, and Christopher Williams all stepped up and hit double digits, but honestly, this was about all of our players buying in and doing their job. I’m extremely proud of their effort, and I’m excited about where we’re heading.
