Routine victory today from the team to take us to 4-0 in the group. Game script allowed every player to get their fair share of minutes and it was a good team effort. Eldridge Webster slotted into the SF for the first time today and led the team in scoring at 22 points. Vincent Polk also put together a perfect game, shooting 7-7 from the field and 2-2 from 3, adding in 8 rebounds and 3 assists. We completely dominated the boards in what was an overall great win.

Next week we have Guatemala, which should be a pretty straight forward game for us. They are currently 1-3 in the group, with 2 of those losses being forfeit losses, so I am not even sure at the moment if we will be playing or not. Either way lets get that 5-0!

Go USA!

Not much to say about this game, just a complete domination from the team today. I would go in to depth but a triple digit victory sort of speaks for itself

Next week we have our final match of the group, where we will be going up against the other remaining undefeated team in Chile. This will by far be our toughest match up to date, as whoever wins will finish the group in first place. They have a strong group of bigs that top their roster, followed by a few solid looking guards. We are excited for our first real challenge of the season, and are determined to get the win and finish atop our group!

Go USA!

Very convincing win for the squad against a quality opponent! Defense was lockdown tonight holding them to 51 points on 24% shooting. The big men were completely dominate, and shut down Chile's attempt at the reverse patient. Offense didn't play quite as well as I would have liked, but it got the job done. Practice this week will definitely be offensive oriented and I am confident we can put together a better showing on that side of the floor next game.

That concludes the first group of play for this season, and we finish at the top in 1st place. Our next group has not yet been decided so we do not know who we play next week. Whoever it is better be ready for a battle!

Go USA!

Decent game out of the squad today, although definitely could have been better. The team came out firing on all cylinders in the first half, taking a 27 point lead at half. The 3rd quarter was pretty even, but the 4th quarter got a bit ugly with the backups in play. It also did not help that our backup center got injured at the start of the 4th, so our reserve PG played at center the entire 4th quarter. At the end of the day, though, a win is a win and we take those.

Next week we got Mexico, who will be one of the tougher matchups of this second group. They are headed by a very strong 92k center Olivio Barcala, and behind him a 54k center Nicasio Munguia. They are then rounded out with a nice set of guards around the 20k range in terms of salary. It will be a tough matchup but we will prepare this week in practice and come to the game ready to work.

Go USA!
