Cougars Win Tourney !!!!

Vince Lombardi said "every team gets knocked down. winners get up"

Was he talking about The Pack or the 5th Grade Cougars? No one knows for sure.

The Cougars played Pittsford in game ! Saturday and , to be candid, struggled just to stay in the game. Pittsford dominated the boards and played give and go like the celtics of days of old. The final was 44 to 32 and it could have been worse

Now for the getting up part.

HFL took out some frustration on Penfield in a 44 to 24 win later that afternoon and then treated a visting Buffalo team like NFL teams have been treating the Bills... harshly.  Cougars won by 15

 

next came  a rematch vs Pittsford( in fairness P Ford was short handed as 2 players couldnt play)> The Cougars won 44 to 22.  

in case you want autographs here is the team roster

Justin " The General " Hofmann. He played great D all tourney. The Cougars are better when he is on the floor

 

Kyle " Special K " Lacey: He hustles and he gives 100% ...his improvement is coming every day. Keep an eye on him folks

Matt " Instant Offense" Cardon:  IO  responded to the challenge today> he scored and passed well all day. He is a match up problem

Tyler " silky" selke : He scored first 6 points vs Pford> He makes things happen on the court> His D is also coming big time 

Tyler " trick shot" Lalonde: Tyler played one heckuva game vs Pford....his over the head shot will forever be called " The Shot" by COUGAR faithful

David " The Banks are always open when I play" Oconnell.  David O is a winner. Bottom line

Will " G Force" Gaylord" is making an early campaign for most improved player of 2010> G Force strikes fear in opponents with some strong rebounds

Matt " all world" Worley: all world does a little of everything, he scores, he plays some D, he passes, he may even do some team laundry for all I know> He is always solid

Luke " the big pizza" Putnam: Big Pizza battles and battles and battles> He is relentless. BP scored at least a hoop in all tourney games

Brian " The Glove" Teel: Glove welcomes the challenge of covering the other teams best players...he never complains he just does it. he also hit two nice jumpers today to stave off a Pford rally

Matt " Mr Smooth" Haas:  Mr Smooth makes the game look easy> He scores and he glides across the court. Rarely do the Cougars struggle when Smooth plays well.

Garrett " G Man" Ruff: G man wears the coaches son burden very well and always give 100%. 

 

thank you parents for the support. Congrats to the kids> see you this week
