Max's All Stars defeat Bronx House; improve to 2-2 in the ABC Hoops Junior Basketball League

Yesterday, Max's All Stars won their second ABC Hoops Junior Basketball League game vs Bronx House by a final score of 42-34. Bronx House was late for the game, so ABC Hoops had to run the game clock until they arrived. For each minute the clock ran, Max's All Stars was awarded one point. The game began with only five minutes remaining in the first half and Max's All Stars leading 11-0. Our coaches (Corey Orgias, Patrick James and Troy Whittington) did a good job of keeping the kids loose and prepared during the long wait until the game started. Darryl Ottley, Justin Cardenas, Keone Billey, Keshaun Cameron, Luke Duggan, Malek Graham, Rameik Golden, Ricardo Velez, Savdeep Gill, Sean Eustace and Stewart Talleyrand all played hard and contributed to the win. They showed continued progress for the third consecutive week. Our players really competed, showing increased aggressiveness and toughness. This win keeps the positive momentum going for Max's All Stars as we head into our Memorial Day weekend bye and prepare for the stretch run.

Max's All Stars suffer heartbreaking defeat in ABC Hoops Junior Basketball League; fall to 0-2

Yesterday, Max's All Stars dropped a heartbreaker in the Spring 2016 ABC Hoops Junior Basketball League against Fulton Ballers by a final score of 42-37. It was a major improvement from our first game, but Max's All Stars still fell short due to a combination of turnovers and some questionable officiating down the stretch. Our coaching staff (Corey Orgias, Patrick James and Troy Whittington) and players (Darryl Ottley, Keone Billey, Keshaun Cameron, Malek Graham, Rameik Golden, Ricardo Velez, Sandeep Singh, Savdeep Gill and Stewart Talleyrand) showed tremendous progress.
