Never let it be said that the Genies are anything less than kind to their guests. On a weekend where Genies players, parents and coaches were busy hosting the 2003 Genies Jamboree!, what may have been lost in the shuffle was the actual playing of the games. And while the team certainly furthered its reputation as having one of the best annual tournaments in the state, the Genies were left empty-handed following a series of lackluster performances on the court, which allowed guests to walk away with all of the tournament trophies. In their first round game with the Phoenix Phenoms, the Genies saw an eleven point halftime lead sliced to one with less than a minute to play before pulling out a 19-16 victory. Then in the second round the Genies 14-point halftime deficit was too much to overcome as they dropped a 30-22 decision to the Arizona Thunder. Finally, in the third place game, the Genies were unable to hold a two-point halftime lead and eventually fell 18-13 to the DFAC Falcons who were playing with four girls from their U12 team. For the tournament the Genies were led in scoring by Maylinn with 20, followed by Shannon (8), Cathryn (7), Tara (5), Cara, Brittany and Kelsey (4 each) and Kelsi (2). Cathryn led the team in rebounding with 13, followed by Maylinn (10), Brittany (9), Kelsey (8), Tara (7), Cara (6) and Shannon and Kelsi (4 each). Also noteworthy, Maylinn was named to the All-Tournament team.
