Conclusion

I have attempted to give a capsule report of each game played in this event.  The statistics came from the game scoresheets.  The stats here are not meant to be official records but as an indicator for the games and should be close.  I apologize in advance for any errors or misspelling of names. 

Congratulations to Lexington Traditional Magnet School (LTMS) and Coach Nimbo Hammonds for capturing the championship.  Also congratulations to Charles "Snoop" Johnson capturing the MVP award.  There were excellent teams and players on display this weekend.
