Conclusion
I have attempted to give a brief recap of all the games 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 for entertainment purposes and not an instrument for ascertaining precise individual records.
Congratulations to the Kentucky X’treme, Kentucky Extreme, and Louisville Sting for winning their respective division championships. There were some excellent games played this weekend and some outstanding individual performances were recorded. Many of these ladies will star for their respective teams this season and several will contend for individual honors recognition this season at the state level.
