4th grade closes out year with 3 wins in a row, 6th grade clinches playoff spot

It was a nerve-racking night at CYO Serramonte as our 4th and 6th graders took the court.

The 4th graders started the night off with another one point victory, 14-13. At one point, they were up 14-9, but the opposition came back with four unanswered points. And like yesterday, they hung on to win the game by one.

They finish the year on a tear, winning their last three games. Unfortunately, the magic number to make the playoffs in this division was 5, and the 4th graders fell short by a game. Nonetheless, it was a great way to finish the season after a mediocre start. After going (3-5) last season, they wrap up the year (4-4).

6th grade clinches playoff spot

The first half looked like a Mission Dolores game all over again, as the 6th grade was trailing 10-2 at the half.

Perhaps this team plays better under pressure and some urgency, as they held the other team to only two points in the entire second-half. And with good defense comes good offense. The 6th grade turned an 8 point half-time deficit into a 6 point victory, 18-12.

With the win, they have officially clinched a playoff spot and have one more game to go tomorrow to ensure the third seed.

Tomorrow's games and addresses are listed in the previous post.
