Metrowest Basketball Championship

For their first season of Metrowest Travel Basketball our youngest lady hoopers in Seekonk came away with a tournament championship victory over Northboro 22-14 on March 12, 2023.  The game started slow for Seekonk with Northboro jumping out to an early lead and holding a 10-6 edge at halftime at the Dana Barros center in Stoughton, MA. A huge 3^rd quarter for the Seekonk Warriors paced them to a lead they would never give back, heading into the final frame up 16-12. Nicole Mal exploded for a season high 14 points in the championship game. Defense was this teams calling card all year long and the key to victory came from a collective team defensive effort that was led by Stella Solas who matched up exclusively on the leading scorer for Northboro.  

This season started back in September with preseason practices throughout the fall sports season. There were early signs that these girls were in for a special year when they attended a jamboree in early November and returned from that experience unbeaten. (4-0)  The girls finished the season with 16 wins and 4 losses.  The girls shared the basketball with 6 different players leading the team in scoring over the course of the 20 games played.  All told the 3^rd Grade Lady Warriors had every single player get into the score book this season.

This group is fortunate to have supportive parents with several volunteering to help out over the course of the 6 month long season. We would like to thank Josean Vega, Kevin Firth, Steve Cetenich, T.J. Sorrentine, and Jay Raposo for assisting in various ways with the girls this season. Without a supportive community, specifically the Seekonk Youth Basketball association along with travel basketball coordinator Darren DaLuz, seasons like this are not possible in this town.
