Da FAM Club boys finished in 2nd once again this time in the CT Select Basketball tourney in Waterbury,CT at River Baldwin Gymnasium. Da FAM Club started off the tourney with hopes of just competing but ended up knocking off New Haven Heat in a a which came down to strong presence on da Boards and a Lil thing called 3-2 zone defense...In a game filled with back and forth lead changes ,none was no bigger than when Da Heat held the ball for a minute which put the clock to 1minute as we sat back and waited for them to make their move in our 3-2 zone trap...As 1minute approached Da Heat went to make their move and a trap and still occured as we took the ball the length of the floor for a layup with under a minute to go.Then a Time out was called and We fell back again and received another steal which gave us the final lead change of the game as We "So called Upset"the New Haven Heat. Then in Game 2 we played against a high power Philly USA TEAM which had a "Dwayne Wade" Shooting Guard who dazzled da Tourney with Wade like moves.But the return of Luke Mattarazi to the lineup with the combo guard Ronnie Underwood,Brandon,Jordan Neal and Alex Conaway along with our inside presence from Jerrod Jefferson,Big K.C and Luis on da boards we competed for the whole 32 minutes giving us a chance to fight to the end.As the end neared Da FAM Club unity seemed to get stronger as everyone contributed down the line especially da young one Brandon as he hit da Floater to send us to overtime at the buzzard over the outstretched hands of the 6foot plus forwads they had..But in Overtime Luke took over hitting Big 3 after Big 3 as we went back and forth to the end then with less than 15seconds left Jerrod jefferson finished with a power move which sealed the 3 point victory. But in the Championship game we fell apart and egoes kicked in as We fell to CT Select(Waterbury and Hartford) which featured some of the top 8th/9th grade players in the Country,Josh(Waterbury),Anthony Jernigan(Hartford) and Big Baby Yelling(Hartford)6'4" who just cleaned the boards and floor with all the loose balls and rebounds..Da FAM Club played well but I beleive they forgot what got them there and will learn from the Game for the future.
