Thank You for the support Bernews and readers.
We were the smallest team, slowest team, had the least amount of experance and play the least basketball of all the teams there…
BUT we were the BEST TEAM and played with the biggest hearts.. Finished with a 4-2 record, that is better than the team who finished 4th and the same record as 3rd
