Comets Black Team Wins in Atlanta | |||
(KB -
04/21/06) While four Comets teams were scrambling to find
the proper spin to describe their showing at the Boo Williams Invitational, the Comets Black team held up their end of the canoe by winning the Peach State Hoops Classic last weekend. The win was the Black team's second in as many weeks and established them as a major contender for AAU honors in Florida. The Black team has made huge strides since we first saw them play in Tallahassee. In that tournament they looked like a discombobulated consolidation of major satellites circling around a single player: Jacky Nikic. They had a team full of accomplished AAU players but no chemistry and little cohesion. They scrambled around the court with only one play: if you get open, take the jumper. They lost a game to Dunedin, something no other Orlando team had ever done. |
