Winter Series Recap And What To Expect For Final Session

So now that Session 3 is in the books, what must we expect for session 4 the last in final session of Winter Series. Will we be able to catch another glimpse of West Coast Elite or FBC Youngunz, only time will tell what will happen in the next few weeks. Can YKS Lady Bulldogs go for a 3 peat, or will Team Takeover regain dominance like once before in that 8th grade division. There has been some surprises thus far in each division, there were a total of 110 teams in Session 3 which actually came close to Session 2 total. In the 8th grade division it was 3 championship brackets, there was a championship for (Pools A-D), (Pools E-H), and (Pools I - J). YKS won the (A-D) bracket championship, K-Low Elite won brackets (E-H) championship and Black Widow won brackets (I - J) championship. Lets talk about the top 10 list for teams in the 8th grade division. Will Ryan Carter be back for Session 4 to help Exodus (NYC) win another chip like they did in Session 1. Look out for Team Thrill (DC) who played in there first Session of the season. They left the gym with some good wins going 3 - 1 in Session 3. New Heights moved one step closer in Session 3 only losing to YKS in the Finals. Will Nepa Elite finally get its first championship in Winter Series, they came close in Session 1 but haven't been back to the finals since then. Team Curry stock has risen despite there 4 - 3 record in Winter Series according to CBS Ranking. Elevate Elite Future took a little dip but still are keeping themselves admissible.

 

On the 7th grade side of things, as how it stands right now. Southern Starz seem to be the team to beat in this division. They're 14 - 0 and are looking too add a few more wins to that total and going for a clean sweep and a full undefeated season at Winter Series. They have the size and back-court to get it done. Did we see the last of West Coast Elite for 22 - 23 Winter Series or will they make another special guest appearance. If not we would love to see them again so they can match up with the Starz. Because WCE is definitely talented enough to do so. Team Durant has gain some ground, moving up in CBS Rankings. Their only lost came against Starz in Session 3. Its been a team effort in the last few Sessions, let's see if Blu Jackson can rally the troops for the last in final Session. Exodus NY moved up a couple of notches, they had some good wins in Session 3 going 3 - 1 an losing to the Starz in the Quarter finals. Palisades Elite is still keep themselves relevant, they only have a total of three combine loss since Session 1 which makes them 8 - 4 at this point keeping them in the middle of the pack. Sports City Angels only played in one Session where we got a quick glimpse of them in that came in Session 2. New Jersey Raptors are hanging tough with a 7 - 5 record. Since going 1 - 3 in Session 1, the Raptors have a 6 - 2 combine record between Sessions 2 & 3. Team Takeover comes in with a 4 - 4 record, the talent is there but they have been coming up short in games that they were suppose to win. Not quite sure which New Jersey Gemz team will show up, that is far as player wise with their roster of kids which some split time between Team Sharp. D - Town Dogs has few solid skilled kids on their roster as well.


Team Future kids are definitely the future, this 6th grade team has the ability to play in the 7th grade division. They only played in Session 2 in which they went undefeated, they were awarded the championship from a forfeit. Southern Starz are 6 - 2 at this point, they didn't participate in Session 1. They finished 2 - 2 in Session 2 and in Session 3 they won every game including the championship. West Coast Elite is 3rd in CBS Ranking, only coming to Session 2 and winning all their games by double digits. Their only lost was by forfeit in the championship. Fairfax Stars finally took there first L, they had been undefeated thru out all Sessions of Winter Series. Exodus NY, YKS, Bustleton Bengals, Team Durant, and Riverside are all on the borderline of around or better at 500. Top Notch and Fairfax Stars has dominate the 5th grade division all season long thus far. Top Notch has won 2 championships out of the 3. Stars has 1 chip to hang their hats on. But with a new team entering in this division (Maybe) it might shake some thinks up, that team is Kentucky Premier. They played up in Session 3 in won 1 game, the 3 games they lost while playing up was a combine total of 4 points so that should let you know a little something about this team.

Manheim, PA - Session 2 of the 22-23 Winter Series was by far the best session that Winters Series has ever been, that is talent wise. Going into the 4th year and with over 100 teams flooding the gym in nearly over 1,000 spectators, it looked as though things were going to get off to a good start. There was barely any room to walk down the sideline, for some games there was standing room only. It seem to me like every program director reached out to one another and said that they would be coming to Session 2. Kenny Kalina from Jr All Star Report must have gotten the inside scoop or he was just a fly on the wall absorbing all the info of what was coming to Spooky Nook for the 2nd Session. 

 

With 2 Sessions down and 2 more to go, I think that the word is now out about how great Winter Series has been so far this year, even though a few good teams that are usually there have been missing so far this year like NJ Rise, Team Thrill, Lady Huskies, Queen City, WPA Bruins, and the NJ Sparks. The 3rd Session will be very important, that will give every team that has participated in the event a quick summary of how good there team will be heading into the spring and summer. Speaking of summer, we all were waiting for things to heat up. Especially in the 8th grade division, Lady YKS came out on top beating Team Takeover (45) - (37). Late in the 1st quarter YKS went on a 12- 2 run and Takeover couldn't make up enough ground to catch up. The closes they got was within 6, and Micah Ojo led the way for YKS. Micah has shown why she deserves some talk about mentioning her name in the 2027 class. Her around the perimeter play is excellent, and now she has add a 10 to 12 foot shot to her game. The Spain sisters have grown a few inches, helping them to see over much larger defenders. I still can't tell them apart, although both of them have been consistent scoring when they need to and not turning the ball over in big games. Some suggest that YKS path to the Chip wasn't as hard as Takeovers. But by the end of the afternoon YKS was hoisting the session 2 A - D Championship over there head. 

 

In the E - H 8th grade Championship Lady Choz pulled out a nail-biter (44) - (43) against a tough K - Low Elite. The game was close thru out the 1st and 2nd half, but it came down to a late foul by K - Low. Zoe Wassserlauf passing skills were on displayed in this game, she threaded the needle a few times setting up teammate Anastasia Bonfante who kept knocking down 3 balls continuously as the game went on. K - Low kept it close with lefty Lilly Brown who was playing like a man on a mission. HBA Spartans knock off CPE in the Pool I Chip (35) - (31). Spartans avenged it's only lost which was to CPE, that lost was from Saturday when CPE beat HBA (30) - (24). There were three 8th grade Division Championships this Series session 2 because of the amount of teams.

 

Southern Starz GA won another 7th grade Division Championship, making them undefeated at 9-0 thus far combined with the first session. They have been anchor by Loriel Murray who has been a double-double monster in every single game. Murray interior work has been exceptional in both Winter Series session. Her lateral movement and good food work allows her to get back on defense if there is a blown play. We sure would've like to seen the Starz match up against West Coast Elite who also had a bunch of talent on their roster. But due to scheduling issue, West Coast Elite had to forfeit the Championship game in which declared Starz the winners. In the other 7th grade bracket Champions E - G Team PA beat D -Town Dogs (55) - (52). Kayanah Taylor is still playing at a high level right now. Finishing around the basket seems to be her forte now. Impress me a few times putting the ball on the floor and going coast to coast. Taylor is still growing, but will have to add a little more to her game like a mid-range shot.  D -Town Dogs had a few players that should make someone watchlist.


The Future 6th grade team might have been one of those teams that I definitely think could've challenged a 7th grade team for a Championship for sure. Unfortunately we didn't get to see what we all thought was going to be a good one against West Coast Elite. Like the rest of the program, they to had to catch a flight back to the west coast. But speaking for myself I got to watch The Future in they are a complete team if you ask me. They ran there stuff if it was inside or outside they got the job done. I only seen one of there games in that wasn't even close at all. Ella Duvall was one of the many bright spots for this young Future team along with Journey Washington, Kinsley Scaringe, and Harper Scaringo. For the other 6th grade Championship in the E - F Division Bustleton Bengals beat Gauchos (39 - (33).

 

 In the 5th Grade Division Fairfax Stars won what they say was rightfully there's. They beat K - Low Elite (27) - (16). Stars feel is though in there eye's that they won two Championships. In session one they lost in the Championship to Top Notch, but the Stars say due to some unprecedented chain of events that happen they should be awarded last sessions Trophy and Tee Shirts. In the other 5th grade Championship Riverside Hawks defeated Glen Arms Gladiators (36) - (5).

Wednesday, November 30, 2022


Manheim,PA - Last week kicked off the 1st Session of 22-23 Winter Series Tournament, there where 90 teams all under one roof to jump start this amazing event. There where a few shoe circuit teams that came out to rep them. Going into the gym I really didn't know what to expect from the players since the summer time wrapped up in July or mid August. Some kids had been training, in some had been recovering from the long summer session. 

 

The gym was chilling but with so much talent in the gym we all knew that thing's would eventually heat up. By the second day as expected thing's finally did, within the 8th Grade Division when Exodus (NY) took home the chip and sweeping threw the top A-D Division while going undefeated. They use their size to smothered teams which had a few rattle. Exodus when on too beat NEPA (43) - (56) they where led by Ryan Carter. In the E-H Division Championship Mid Atlantic Magic beat Team Pennsylvania (36) - (29) Magic we're Hayley Kolk, Team PA was led by Isabella Super. The 7th Grade Division A-D champs Southern Starz Georgia knock off Exodus (NY). I seen part of this team this past summer in Kentucky, they were under a different organization then but seems to me they loaded up and is looking to make some noise this winter and summer. Loriel Murray led the way for the Starz. In the B Division E-H chip was won by Team Outcast who beat Castle (NY) 41-40. 6th grade A-D Division Championship Fairfax Starz beat New Jersey Raptors (34) - (21). York Thunder knock off Glen Arms Gladiators (52) - (31) in the E-F B Division Championship. 5th Grade Division only had one division champ, which turn out to be Top Notch who beat Fairfax Starz (31) - (27).

DIARY OF A FEMALE BALLER: KENNEDY BROUGHTON 2028 (NEW HEIGHTS) ENTRY #1 

KENNEDY & FAMILY

Hello Basketball World, My Name is Kenndey Broughton From Egg Harbor, NJ. Gthing BasketballBall, Will Be Following Me For The Next Couple of Weeks. This Is The First Diary He Has Done Since The Country Shut Down For The Pandemic, So Buckle Up.


Monday: It was about 7 o’clock in the morning in the first thing that I did was find out what I was wearing to school. Then I brush my teeth and got in the shower. While in the shower I was thinking about how bad I played at prime East events and how to move on from that mistake. Next, I got dressed did my hair and walk to the bus with my dad and my puppy nova. I got to school and ate breakfast in the café then I went to the first academic and I watched endgame, but I did not watch it all because I had to go to band. Then I came back to class and started social studies and social studies we did a brain pop on Zeus and her the gods goddesses. During that class I have random patches pop up with my hand and they started to it really badly so I went to the nurse, and they said that I might be having an allergic reaction to something. They called my mom and told me to go in the bathroom to check if I had any hives on my body. There was nothing on me, so I iced my hand and I put anti-itch on it. Next, I went to specials and played basketball and football. My team and I won both games. Gym was over and I went to lunch and ate my friend's cucumbers because school lunch is so nasty. Third academic I watched back to the future, and I did not like it at all, so I went to my other teacher's classroom and helped her out with packing up her class. School was over and I got home and got dressed to go to AC for a workout. During the workout I did lifting mountain climber's jumpers and then the last thing that I did was layups. On my way home got in the shower and went to sleep.


Tuesday: I woke up and started my normal routine. Then I put bug spray on and walked to the bus. I got to school and met up with my favorite group of friends I walked back to my pod and started the first academic. We went downstairs and did our Greek Olympics for the first academic and tutorial next I went to specials which was steam the teacher graded my project and I got a 47 out of 50. Then we watched a movie steam was over and it was time for lunch I ate my goldfish and play with my best friend Jazlynn. Now it would be third academic lessons we have Greek Olympics we stayed in our hall Raul Ella watched a movie and ate snacks. School is over and I got home and got ready for practice in North Jersey. My team and I mostly worked on please jumpers and layups. Practice was over but my coach trained me and his daughter Scarlet for 30 more minutes. That was over and I ate at McDonald’s for dinner and drove back home I got home really late took my sweaty clothes off and went to sleep.


Wednesday: I woke up really excited because I was going to the NBA draft tomorrow. I started my morning routine with brushing my teeth and then finished it off with healing my hair I walk to the bus because it was 8:03 in the morning and my bus comes around 8:13 or 8:15. I got to school and the first thing that I did in the first class was watch a movie and then cleaned up the class tutorial I finished watching a movie then the second academic I watched the Lorax then specials I went to gym and played pinball. Gym was over and I went to lunch and played around with my friends like I said I hate school lunch, so I did not eat anything. Math we finished back to the future two.

My mom was getting her hair done so my aunt pick me up we went back to my grandmom‘s and ate dinner. My mom was finally done with her hair so when she came, we stayed there for another hour. Then we left I got home wrap my hair and then I fell asleep.

Thursday: I woke up brushed my teeth washed my face went downstairs and made me some chocolate chip pancakes and a strawberry banana blueberry smoothie. Then I pulled out my clothes because I was going to the NBA draft. Once I finished eating I got in the shower got dressed wrapped my hair up did a couple TikToks outside and then we left to go to the draft. I got there and then I waited for a couple of the teammates to get there once they arrived I walked on the red carpet took pictures and one of the staff gave me and the rest of the team hats and then we walk into this room and met the boys that going to be drafted and we walked out with them and took pictures then the draft started so we got food and we sat in our seats and my favorite player got first pick his name is Paolo. We left on the 17th pick once we got home, I wrapped my hair and went to sleep.


Saturday: I woke up brush my teeth wash my face made sure I had everything for this tournament in Hershey then I got dressed. My dad went to go do something for his job. Then my dad got back and we packed a suitcases in the car I know we went to Chick-fil-A got gas and then headed to Hershey. We got to Hershey I got dressed in the bathroom and then I played my first game and we lost to the Raptors by 10 I could’ve did better, I didn’t score that much and I didn’t play that good of defense. I talked to my dad about my game and then I got a slushy’s went to my hotel room brushed my teeth because my teeth were dyed blue so I washed my face did my hair again went back to the game and played our second game we won, and I did a way better job on defense and offense didn’t score that much again but I played awesome. We finished early so half of the team went swimming in the coach's hotel and then we had pizza brownies and we hung out in our teammates room for a couple hours. Then we went back to the parents and my dad went to go get pizza then we got to the room I put my pajamas on and went straight to sleep.


Sunday: I woke up around 9 o’clock brushed my teeth washed my face went downstairs in the hotel and ate Froot Loops waffles and drank some water. Then I got back upstairs and pulled out my stuff for my game got in the shower washed my hair got dressed did my hair and then we went out to go get lunch because my game was at 1 o’clock and it was around 11 or 12 when we went to go eat.

Coach K made us do a team TikTok and then we left to go back to the gym and versed a team that was not so good, but we played terrible even though we won. I did way better on defense out of all the games that I played so far, I made the other team turnover a couple of times I scored a couple of times, and I had a lot of assists. The game was over I got another slushy and then it started pouring so my dad ran to go get the car and we waited for him to pull up. As he pulled up, we ran as fast as we could to get in the car.

Manheim, PA - This Year's Winter Series was very intriguing, games were played in two different states which made things get a lot more intense and a lot more complicated, to the degree of when some players were suiting up for 3 different teams on two different age groups just too get that extra advantage which is sometime needed when competing in Winter Series. All in just 2 sessions there were some ups and downs and highs and lows in each division to the point as to where some teams even thought about separating or they did separate. This is always expected when playing in the Series, point blank period. There was high level competition all in one building and on various courts. Winter Series had teams from 8 different states thru out the 4 total sessions, to name a few DC, NJ, NY, MA, VA, FL, OH, etc. In Session 1 8th Grade Division the Philadelphia Belles reign supreme in the A Division winning against a tough scrappy North Carolina team in Queen City in Chip. That Belles team was loaded, they had a huge size advantage at all 5 positions on the floor. In Session 2 Belles came up short to Team Takeover who wasn't present in Session 1, once Team Takeover step back into the Winter Series scene, they went on to win basically 3 Championships. Two by wins and one by alone disqualification, nevertheless coach James of Takeover put the full court press on anyone that he even thought was going to be a challenge when entering Winter Series 2022. In the B Division of the 8th Brackets, there were multiple winners and losers. Session 1 winner (Philly Fire) Session 2 (YKS) Session 3 (YKS & A2D) Session 4 (New Jersey Sparks)


It seemed as though in the 7th Grade A Division that was once dominated by the Bulldogs, finally came to a halt in Session 4. Team Takeover stop them in their tracks to where is though everyone thought for certain that it would be a clear sweep for YKS in adding to an already stack trophy case. YKS beat some good teams in each different Winter Series SessionWPA Bruins, Team Durant, Takeover, just to name a few. The Spain sisters are the little engine that makes the Bulldogs run, everyone knows by now that Micah Ojo is the big dog on the yard though. with all her good traits, the writing is on the wall. She will be a Allstar some day and that is the reason why YKS was able to hoist 3 straights Winter Series trophies over their heads until Session 4 came around when a hot Team Takeover was looking to avenge their loss from Session 3 Semifinals. They were well prepared this time around; Takeover was led by Neviah Roberson the long athletic wing who seem to give the Bulldogs fits around the perimeter. YKS kept it close then Takeover put their foot on the gas late in the 2nd quarter. B Division was won by Glen Arms 3 times in a row, Glen Arms came out of the B Division and went into the A Division for Session 4 were they lost to Takeover in the Semifinals.


6th Grade A Division was dominated by none other than Ohio Xpress, they played lights out thru out Winer Series. Their only hiccup came was when they played a well balance Team Durant in Session 2 for the Chip. Team Durant only appeared in one session; I just can't image how things might have turned out if they would've at least appeared in two more, put we will just never know. But that's how players play when it's time to show up they are there, speaking of Janiyah Hargrove and Taylor Stanfield who were the Kobe and Shaq for Xpress putting smaller teams in a bind and basically wearing them down in the end witch ultimately led to them to winning 3 overall in 2 back-to-back. We had multiple Champions for the B Division.

PENNSYLVANIA - Winter Series Recap - This Winter Series KP rolled out the red carpet for the Player's, Coaches and Media Outlet's. There was torrential downpours for both Session's 2 & 3 on these particular days, but that didn't stop the show. Session 1 I didn't attend, so I knew that I had a lot of catching up to do by missing a whole Session. With major Evaluators in Media In the Building the kids came out to play (Like The Classic Warriors Saying). Like Session 2 I knew that Championship weekend would be in full effect, you could see the look that some player's had in there eye's that they were ready to play ball. For some program's this was there first time out since early March 2020 right around the time when Covid -19 cripple the whole country.



With all of the heat that has been In the gym this Winter Series I still can't understand why KP is still deciding to call this event Winter Series. I guess that is a question that we will have to ask him In the near future. Rolling Into gym I really didn't know what to expect, I just anticipated that all of the games would live up to the hype. Since there was some 87 teams 13 shy of 100 some as far South as Charlotte, North Carolina and some far East as Massachusetts. In Session 3 their where 80 teams on a five court platform. In the Winter Series 8th Grade Division NJ Sparks took home two out of three ChampionshipsTeam Takeover ran through the competition in Session 1 taking home the chip back to the DMV beating Elevate Elite 56 - 48, In Session 2 Gold Division the NJ Sparks and the Pauldo Twinz were able to come through with a pair of trophies especially when it counted. Coach Chez provided the Wonder Twinz with a few key pieces. They beat Elevate Elite 59 - 55 in a back and forth game, also in Championship weekend the Sparks took a early lead over a talented Team Takeover group in never look back winning 59 - 51 in the Final of the Finals.
