(KB - 06/02/06) Every single opening game at the Comets Tournament of Champions was a +13 blowout. That's not unusual for pool play. But dang!! It kind of cuts down on the number of talking points, doesn't it?
The Red team won, 67-23, over the Florida Lady Ballers.
The Blue team beat DEBO, 72-53, led by Asia Wilson's 16 points. Former Blue team player Laquita Curry had 17 for DEBO.
The Comets Black team fell to the Tallahassee Essence, 66-47.
And the Comets Red 14U blasted the Central Florida Yellow Jackets, 60-27. The Yellow Jackers are Ocoee's high school varsity team. The Red 14s are a bunch of over-achieving freshmen and eighth graders.
No drama yet.
The Red team takes on the Comets Fusion 15U at 8:30 Saturday morning in what promises to be an unbalanced scrimmage between sister teams.
The Blue team gets their first taste of a national team when Boo Williams shows up at 8:30 on Saturday.
The Essence will play DEBO on Saturday, too.
The Hollywood Eagles are here. They opened with a 70-54 win over the Essence B team. They will take on a bunch of over-achieving freshmen and eighth graders at 11:30 on Saturday.
