Conclusion
I have attempted to give a brief recap of each game played in this tournament. I apologize in advance for any misspelled names or errors in stats as I hurriedly transcribed the statistics from the scoresheets. This report is meant to be an overview of the tournament and not an instrument for ascertaining precise individual records.
Congratulations to the N. Lexington YMCA Lady Blaze, Louisville Jaguars, and Bowling Green Blast for capturing their respective division championships.
