The Basketball College did an exceptional job in Tucson, Arizona at the Marana Classic. Both teams finished up with a record of 3 wins and 1 loss. Both teams recorded 1 win and 1 loss on the first day. Both teams lost close games, with one team losing at the buzzer by one point because of some bad footwork and the other team losing by three points in a game they were up by 7 points with 4 minutes to go in the 4th quarter. The three wins each team had though were pretty outstanding with an average winning margin of about 25 points.
Standouts and highlights from this tournament include: Claudio Campos hitting 6 three pointers in one game, Emanuel Golong acting as the one man Swat Team, Michael Dow dunking and posterizing the opposition, Withchiel scoring 31 points in a game, and Nathan So coming in to his own.
These 6 wins and 2 losses brings the combined Basketball College Tour record to 9 wins and 5 losses, which is a pretty good showing for our 1st Tour, especially compared to the other 2 Australian teams who have a combined record 5 wins and 9 losses.
The boys will now compete in the Oak Park Tournament in California which starts today.
