The fifth-grade Genies completed their grueling Junior High league schedule with a fourth place finish in the Wham Post Season Tournament. After finishing in the upper tier of the nine-team junior high league, the Genies were placed in the Gold Bracket for the post-season tournament where they had a first-round match-up with the very talented Highland eighth graders. Highland's age, size and skill proved too much for the Genies as they cruised to a 42-20 win. In the second round the Genies had a rematch with the Mercury team that had beaten them by four just two weeks earlier. The results were similar this time around in a closely contested 26-21 Mercury win. The Genies are now ready to resume play against girls their own age and will begin this year's U11 tournament season this Friday, March 7 at 7:00 p.m. against the Phoenix Phenoms in the Thunder Tip-Off at Thunderbird High School.
