The Simnasho Red Devils
team this month played in the
State Games of Oregon, Jun
ior Olympics Basketball Tour
nament.. The Red Devils were the
champions in the boys 13 and
under division.
By winning their division the
team qualified to play in the
2005 Junior Olympics, to be
held at Colorado Springs, Colo
rado. The division tournament this
month was held at the Tualatin
Recreation Center, on July 10
11. The Simnasho Red Devils
and Mustangs have been hav
ing a great season the last couple
of years, not winning them all
but placing in the top four in
the age level and some older
divisions, like this tournament.
Our first game was against
Portland Urban Sports. We won
very easily with a score of 66
to 27. Being we had back to

back games, I rested all our start
ers most of the fourth quarter,
to be ready to play our next
game.
We almost gave it away our
second game, against Oregon
City. We surprised them by jump
ing out to a big lead.
They were a good team,
never giving up. Our players
slacked off, like they won the
game already. They got their
game together with a full-court
press, very effectively.
They made a 24 to 4 point
run on us, bringing the score
within 4 points.
We had to call a couple of
time-outs, made some substitu
tions, finding a combination, to
get our game back on track.
The team underestimated their
opponent, which is a mistake,
made by many teams. We
played hard, defeating them 67
to 54, moving us into the semi's
of the tournament.
In the semi's we played well
against the Salem Tigers, defeat
ing them easily with a score of
51 to 26, putting us in the
Championship, waiting for our
next opponent, which happened
to be Oregon City again.
I told the team to prepare for
their press, not underestimating
them, to play and leave no doubt,
so as to qualify for Colorado

by all contributing to the cham

City 76-59 to win the gold
medal.
I'd like to thank all the par
ents for allowing the kids to play.
It's getting tough all over, as
many parents end up on the
unemployment line.
So we do appreciate the sup
port given to the youth pro
grams. The teams do fund-raisers
but still need help at times. God
bless the companies, businesses
and organizations for their sup
port, giving the young athletes a
chance to participate, keeping
them off the streets.
