Elementary School Basketball Tournament!
January 23, 2010 at Kids America's Indoor Fitness and Sports Complex.
Kids America
hosted their annual elementary school basketball tournament on January
23, 2010. This tournament was open to boys' teams for grades 4th
to 6th. Kids America had a great day of basketball with 11 teams
participating in two divisions. Teams from Coshocton, Indian
Valley, Meadowbrook, John Glenn, and Buckeye Trail competed in the
tournament.
Meadowbrook took home two of the three
divisional championships by winning both the 5th and 6th Grade
Championship plaques. John Glenn fared well in the tournament as
well by winning the 4th Grade Championship over Buckeye Trail and also
placing second in the 5th Grade division. The local team from
Coshocton placed second in the 6th Grade division.
The exciting
day saw some tight competition and great matchups with Meadowbrook 5th
Grade ending up as the only undefeated team on the day. They came
out of a long day of games and won the Championship by a large
margin. Meadowbrook 6th recovered from an earlier defeat at the
hands of Coshocton 6th to get revenge and beat Coshocton in the
Championship. Buckeye Trail 4th and John Glenn 4th had a great
day of challenges as they played mostly 5th grade teams before meeting
in the championship.
Kids America hosts their elementary
basketball tournament every January at their facility in Coshocton,
OH. For more info on upcoming activities and events, including
our Dodge ball tournament on May 1st, check out our website at
www.kids-america.org or contact Jarred Renner at 740-622-6657 or by
