Fall Wolves 2019


 Another season with the Wolves ... but as all the boys except Colton are 9th graders, we'll probably lose some/all to high school teams shortly. So this was a great final season. Wolves were in the division 3 superleague, playing in the Saturday and weeknight leagues, and they won the championship in both! They had an undefeated season in the Saturday league. It was a struggle, as Colton had scheduling conflicts, and there were many injuries that had players out for weeks at a time. Some weeks, Wolves barely had five to play (and one week they played with four!) 


...  the Saturday league stats

Colton missed game 1 and game 4, as they were scheduled at the exact same time as his Showtime team. Sometimes times work out, but the scheduling gods were NOT in our favor this season. 

Wolves vs SLBC (game 2)
Wolves vs Shock (game 3)
Wolves vs Thunder (game 5)

Wolves vs Thunder9 (Playoff 1)
Wolves vs Thunder 10 (Playoff 2)
Wolves vs SLBC (Championship)



and a peek at how the Monday league went ...
Happily Colton didn't miss any of those games
(but I didn't make it to the semi-finals myself)

Showtime for Fall - 8th Grade

Fall season, Coach Sawyer asked if Colton was available to play on Showtime again. Originally, Coach was thinking of one team, with 7th/8th graders, but ended up making a team for both grades. Colton had played with Ace, Lucas and Stephen on the Summer Showtime tournament. He knew Carter from last year's Jags team, and we pulled in Tannic from our Grizzly days. Add in a few other players (Jackson, Matt, Kaden) and it was a new team. Alas, Colton didn't speak up soon enough to get my coveted #5. He was #15 this season. 

The boys had some group clinic times at the high school, but no specific team practices. They played in the Thursday night Superleague, and the Saturday Superleague. And unfortunately, those Saturday games were scheduled at the same time, or back-to-back with Colton's Wolves, so he was late or missing at a few games with both teams. 

Here's a snapshot of the Thursday league (click to enlarge)
