a total of nine teams of boys and
girls ages 8 to 16. Many of the
games were "cliff hangers," decided
in the final seconds by a single
field goal or free throw.
The Major League, consisting of
four teams of boys and girls aged 12
to 16, played a 16 game schedule and

Binni Shackelford, and Jerry Hooper
for an overall score of 539 points.
The third place Hulks, coached by C.
Sanchez, actually amassed the most
overall team points with 575, and
also hosted the highest scorer in
the league, with Kenneth Dixon hit-
ting 139 field goals and 24 free
throws for 302 individual points.
Jamie Scarborough, Runar Einarsson,
Kevin Jennings, Bill McLard, Jeff
Twitchell, Steve Demott, and Christ-
ine Allen all contributed to the

151 points, assisted by Scott White
with 109, and Robert Berg, Darryl
Brown, Alan Scarborogh, David Sears,

tributing to the team's overall tot-
al of 422 points scored.

teams of boys and girls aged 8
through 11 years, also played a 16
