The weekend was fruitful for the South Lafourche Flash 7th grade girls and 8th grade boys teams – each enjoying success in their respective events.
The Lady Flash played in the prestigious Super 60 Tournament in New Orleans, going up against some of the best 7th grade teams from around the United States.
The ladies fell in their first pool play game, but then battled back, winning the last pool play game, then storming past the Mississippi Express by a 40-17 margin in the opening bracket game to punch a spot in the event’s semifinals.
But in the Final 4, the ball didn’t bounce the Flash’s way, and our ladies fell to the Katy Rebels, the event’s eventual champion.
Congrats to the 7th Grade squad on a tremendous showing in a tough venue.
On the 8th grade side, the Flash boys competed in Zachary at the Bronco Ballers Bash.
The guys scored a thrilling opening-game winning, beating the home Broncos by one point – a game which may have been the most hotly competitive contest of the entire event.
In the afternoon game of pool play, the Flash fell to the Hurricanes by a slim margin.
In bracket play, an early start time doomed the guys, as the Buffalo Soldiers used a fast start and swarming defense to score a 35-20 victory to end our team’s weekend.
But the Flash made strides on the weekend and made a great showing in Zachary.
