Coogan vs Ferrara

 

Team Coogan

 

Coogan and Alexander went toe-to-toe through three quarters in a tightly contested matchup, but Team Coogan flipped the switch in the 4th, pulling away behind Chase Richard’s 20 points. The TC defense slammed the door late, holding Alexander to just 6 points total.

Coogan contributed  18, while Rutland and Pecue chipped in 10 apiece. Fournet finished with 3 points, the same number of air balls he put up on the night and Scott Sumner added 4 subbing for Team Coogan. 

With the win in hand, Team Coogan now turns its attention to Team Arcement after Christmas break. Arcement’s offense leans heavily on two players to generate every point and that kind of one-dimensional attack doesn’t bode well heading into the matchup. Team Coogan hasn’t played a full game yet with the zebras shutting the clock off at either 38 or 39 minutes and I don’t see this being any different.

Team Brantley

 

If this game taught us anything, it’s that adjustments matter, halftime speeches are powerful, and the gym floor may or may not be haunted.

Team Brantley came out a little… festive. Maybe still mentally shopping for Christmas gifts, the squad fell behind early, digging an 8-point hole against Team Wall. Coach Brantley, after several possessions of “Wait… what are they doing?”, finally realized the opposition was running a triangle-and-two and promptly called timeout—clipboard, hands on hips, full realization mode activated.

The first quarter belonged to Team Wall, but the second quarter absolutely did not. Behind strong play from rookies Towles and Montalbano, Team Brantley flipped the switch, clamping down defensively and holding Team Wall to a stunning five points in the entire quarter. At halftime, Team Brantley had crawled out of the hole and taken a 24–20 lead.

But let’s be clear—that was just the warm-up.

Enter Rusty Secrist.

Whatever was said during that halftime speech cannot be printed here, but it was fiery, passionate, and apparently unlocked something deep within Team Brantley’s collective soul. The third quarter was a full-on avalanche. Team Brantley dropped 31 points and blew the game wide open, taking a commanding 21-point lead.

Rookie Patrick Towles turned into an absolute flamethrower, pouring in 16 points in the third quarter alone. Captain Brantley finally located the bucket and decided to keep it for himself, knocking down three three-pointers like he’d been saving them all season. Myles Buck continued his personal mission to outrun time itself, finishing fast breaks at will.

By the start of the fourth quarter, you could see it—Team Wall’s faces told the story. Frustration. Confusion. Acceptance.

The final quarter featured points traded back and forth, but the outcome was never in doubt. However, the moment of the night came when rookie Nathan Neames broke free on a fast break for what looked like an easy layup. Suddenly—out of nowhere—another damn Gremlin emerged from the gym floor tiles, snatching poor Nathan’s foot mid-stride and sending the layup clanking away. A truly tragic and supernatural moment.

Coach Brantley assured the team the gym would be inspected over Christmas break, presumably by an exorcist.

Team Brantley closed out the game strong, cruising to a 69–48 victory and heading into the break with momentum, confidence, and a healthy fear of rogue gym gremlins.

Happy holidays—and check your footing.

Boyce vs Ringe

 

Team Boyce

 

Team Boyce was outgunned in the extra slippery Legends gym this Sunday by a balanced scoring attack led by rookie Mitch Crain with 14 points and a ton of boards. Our whole team was as cold as it is in this deer stand while I compose our final write up of 2025. The ageless wonder Haggai was our only consistent threat on offense scoring 14 and punted one 40 feet. Deaton showed up with a few minutes left in 2Q but his defense and rebounding weren’t enough to overcome the insurmountable lead Team Ringe built in the first half. Hopefully he scheduled all future spray tan appointments around the basketball schedule. 

Lato looks to rehab his shooting pinky over the break and we are all going to work on our shooting to get ready for the playoffs. Boyce was out for this one but had his assistant clear his calendar and committed to all 2026 game dates.

 

Team Ringe

 

Gage vs Tate

 

Team Gage 

 

Team Tate came out with a clear game plan. Use Ledoux as a decoy so Tate could get his scoring title by week three. 

Fortunately for Team Gage we had a more team mindset and delivered on Team first. Jason Landry gave Team Gage a huge spark hitting two 15’ shots that pushed gage to a 9 point lead with 3 minutes to play. Contributions came from everyone and the effort on the defensive end made the difference. Team Gage will be a tough out for anyone if they can get to the 40 point mark. Tonight was our closest game to 40 and the W says it all. We left atleast 10-15 points at the rim with fatigue and tired legs. If team Gage gets serious about their shape it could be a deep run. Time will tell and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Team Martin

 

Team Pitre

 

In a hard-fought contest, Team Pitre overcame a slow start and a tight third quarter to defeat Team Martin with a final score of 33-26. Team Martin took an early lead, finishing the first quarter up 9-7. However, Team Pitre responded in the second frame, battling back to take a narrow 19-17 lead heading into halftime. The defensive intensity ramped up dramatically in the third quarter, which saw both teams struggling to score, resulting in a 21-21 tie going into the final period. In the fourth quarter, Team Pitre found their offensive rhythm, pulling away thanks to the impressive scoring efforts of Patrick Walker, who finished as the game’s top scorer with 13 points, and Clint Smith, who contributed 11 points. Team Martin’s scoring was primarily shouldered by Jimmy Sandbridge, who led his team with 11 points, but it ultimately wasn’t enough to match Team Pitre’s closing run.
