Won the TO, OReb and FT battle, and created a lot of havoc with our press.
Last game of the season! It was a fun ride with a special group of boys. I'm really going to miss coaching them!
Played 2 this AM. Last game action of the season!

TC Blue lost the final, playing short handed. It was a good run, and a good season for that group. When playing as a full team, they looked better than anyone in this league.
They're going to have a strong 7th grade season!
Blue advances to the TAAC finals w/ a W over OH White 39-26! Finals are Sunday, 3pm at Maumee Valley.
Unfortunately Gold couldn't do the same, falling to OH Green.
Should be a great final! Blue won the season series 2-1.
Micah's 2nd grade season came to an end today. His team went 12-13 against a 3rd/4th grade schedule. I was most proud of his progression in his passing and defensive skills (led team in both steals and assists!). Looking forward to seeing what he can do against kids his own age!
TC 6th also took 2 games at the local NWO tournament this weekend. We played 2 really tough teams and took some lumps. While we didn't get a win, the kids still had some good moments and will keep grinding.
2nd game was a "bench mob" game against the TC 5th grade, W 32-12. It was super fun to get big PT to kids who don't get it consistently. We got 9/10 kids in the scorebook in this one!
TC Gold 6th won 34-11 vs Emmanuel yesterday. Very proud of the boys for competing hard w/o their big man, Zach Altman. 29 OReb and only 6 TOs!
Hudson Egbert 12 pts
Lebbaeus Hunter 8 pts, 11 reb
6/9 kids in the score book!
TC Gold wins 27-23 vs TC Blue in their 2nd matchup. Both teams took care of the ball and played great D tonight. The kids really showed off their skills!
The regular season ends Sat with a Gold vs Emmanuel matchup. Tournament is Mar 7/8!
TC Gold fell to OH White tonight, 20-26 in OT. Isaiah Runk subbed for J Kobold tonight & hit a clutch 3 with 14sec remaining to send it to OT. Ultimately we just had trouble making shots tonight. Only 4 TOs (‼️). But shot 14% from the field.
2 more games, then the tournament!
6th grade TC took on a few elite teams today @ the local NWO tourny- Liberty Benton and Sylv. Wolfpack. No Ws, but our kids played well. Losing can be ok if you're learning from it! We know 6th grade isn't the end of the journey - these kids are aiming for something higher!
The 6th grade Pburg league tourny was this morning. We took a close 26-28 L in the semis to Findlay (who went on to beat AW Blue by 7), and then beat Pburg 44-29 in the consolation game.
The kids played great team basketball. Findlay was undefeated, and we had them on the ropes.
TC Blue played OH Green and won a 40-39 thriller. We had a 13 pt lead before turning the ball over 7 times in the last couple of minutes to make it really interesting. These things are correctable, and we learned some great lessons in a W.
McKibben 11 pts
Yoder 11 pts
Runk 6 pts
TC Gold played OH White again tonight, and took a 31-42 L on 7/16 shooting from 3 by OH. Give credit where it's due - they were lights out. I like our chances in a rematch. We played well and won the TO battle and rebounding battle.

2nd TAAC game
TC Blue L 27-14 vs OH White
Tough day playing short handed vs a good opponent. TC took good care of the ball (11 TOs total), but struggled to find rhythm on offense, shooting 20% to OH's 46%.
Isaiah Runk 5 pts, 2 stl
Isaac King 3 pts
TAAC play today too!
TC Gold W 40-37 vs Emmanuel
We rebounded very well (+12) and shot 38% from 3. -9 in the TO battle. Some things to clean up.
Altman 10 pts, 19 reb (9 Off)
