Last night, Coach Duease was inducted into the MS Sports Hall of Fame. It was a great night with lots of longtime friends & former players in attendance. If you have pictures from last night, please post them in the comments.
MRA started hot, but JA was too much in the 2nd half. The Overall championship goes to JA. Erick Dampier, Jr (16 & 13) & Will Bizot (18) showed the future is bright. Kudos to Sam Hailey (11 & 6 asst) & Matthew Latham (7 & 3asst) for leading this team to 33 wins. On to next year.
