Team Blendos (1-0) looks to face Tennessee Orange (1-0) in a highly anticipated match this Sunday at 5 pm

Both teams are atop the commissioners rankings.

Although Grey ended up winning this game by 29 points..it was a much closer game then they would like to believe in the first half.

Stevie Melendez led the way for Grey with 33 points. Jared Conklin (20 pts) & Jordan Shaul (18 pts) also finished in double figures.

Sand will be the youngest team to compete as some players are fresh off of a JV and/or Varisty season @ Margaretville CS.

Coach Richards & brother Scott add some much needed experience and interior presence.

It is great to see the development of players from season to season and we take pride in providing an opportunity for high school athletes to get a valuable & rewarding experience being involved in the men's leagues.
