Hello from the Russ Peterich Tourney

[kiddman32]

Yes, in Santa Rosa, definitely NOT a favorite town of mine unless my Cougs are playing there…. but they ARE. 7pm game vs. Bakersfield North.

Anyway, we are closing in on tipoff for the 4pm game, Analy of Sebastopol vs. Monterey Trail of Elk Grove.

Yes, in Santa Rosa, definitely NOT a favorite town of mine unless my Cougs are playing there…. but they ARE. 7pm game vs. Bakersfield North.

Anyway, we are closing in on tipoff for the 4pm game, Analy of Sebastopol vs. Monterey Trail of Elk Grove.

MT will win by 30

 

[kiddman32]

Monterey Trail is 1-0 after beating Sacramento back on the 18th (foundation game, maybe?) and Analy is 0-2 after losing by 1-2 to Piedmont and Petaluma.

I don’t expect a close game here, MT should be a heavy favorite.

 

[kiddman32]

Early on the scores is tied at 2…. but a steal followed by a MT dunk by Azheil Franklin, and a stop followed by Kentrell Kelly, and it’s 6-2…. Analy with a corner 3…. Kelly scores inside…. 8-5.

 

[kiddman32]
