6th/7th graders clinch a playoff berth
Bryan said to Michaela as she was eating her lunch that she needed to score 20 points. And if that happened, her team would win the game and clinch a playoff spot.
She did one better.
The 6th grader scored a career high 21 points, and absolutely went off in the 3rd quarter, extending a 10 point halftime lead into a 20 point lead at the end of three.
With no fear, she ate up the other team's defense, hitting shot after shot. For good measure she also banked in a 3 pointer.
It was a revenge game for the girls who lost by just a point in the tournament to this same team. A little more than two months later, they won by their most lopsided margin of the year.
So much improvement and in such a short amount of time.
After following the loss, win, loss, win pattern, the girls have put together their first winning streak of the season, two.
Although a little comical that it's only two, the win was enough for them to clinch the fourth and final playoff spot in their division.
Sharon had one of her best games of the year, scoring four quick points in the 1st quarter. In her first year, she's dramatically improved and has done a good job grabbing rebounds.
Emily also scored two points.
Even though she didn't show up on the scoresheet, Jacqueline did a great job diving on some loose balls and collected several rebounds. She's had a strong last two games. So maybe as Jacqueline goes, so does the team.
Now it's onto the playoffs where they'll need to beat a team they've lost to earlier in the season.
It bodes well that the team they beat Friday night, was a team that had beaten them before.
Let's hope the trend continues.
CELEBRITY SIGHTINGS: Former classmate and one time CYO basketball champion Adrianna attended the game. As did Isabella, who regrets not playing basketball this season, but has assured everyone she will sign a contract for next season

4th/5th graders drop final game
The 4th/5th grade girls were on the losing end of a 18-2 defeat in their final game of the season.
It wasn't until the 4th quarter that the girls were able to score, a Justina steal and lay-up.
Like many other games this season, the girls were physically outmatched and were easily out-rebounded on both ends of the court.
Their season was rough, as they wrapped up the year with just a forfeit win. It was expected after losing two of their top scorers in Sofia and Veronica.
But without them, other girls on the team were forced to step up and play bigger roles on the team. Aislinn, Annika, Samantha and Sara all scored for the first time in their careers.

8th grade girls finish the season (7-1)
The 8th grade girls owned the 3rd quarter and outscored their opponent 12-0 in the third frame to wrap up the regular season with a 21-16 victory.
It got a little dicey in the 4th quarter, since the girls didn't score a single point after controlling the third. The other team went on a 7-0 run to close the game, but the cushion the girls built was enough for win number seven of the year.
They wrap up the regular season with their best record in team history at (7-1) and will more than likely finish second in their division.
Jamie had a game high 8 points, hitting two 3 pointers, while Kelly chimed in with 7 points before almost fouling out of the game. Initially it looked like she had five fouls, but there was an error at the table, as she was able to stay in the game, having only committed four fouls.
There were a few quite nifty passes in the game. Fiona set up Lily by the basket for an easy lay-up but couldn't get the shot to fall. But a few minutes later, Rebecca made the almost exact same pass to Lily. This time she didn't miss and she even drew a foul for the and one.
Part of their 12-0 run in the third featured something the girls have really improved on this season, looking up and heaving the ball downcourt in a controlled manner.
Kelly and Jamie were both able to pick up easy buckets as the girls extended their 9-5 halftime lead.
Up next for the girls will be a playoff game against the three seed, which is unknown at this time. They've held victories against everyone in the division except for the first place team, so whoever they play, they will have beaten already once.
But that doesn't equate to a victory.
The girls have done a great job this year, but all that is irrelevant come playoff time, because it's win or go home.
Once again the scoring was pretty distributed as five of the six girls got on the scoresheet.
Fiona scored 3 points, Lily 2 points and Victoria 1 point.
