BABC Wins AAU 16u & 15u Super Showcases
The Boston Amateur Basketball Club arrived in Orlando ten days ago and now they are set to leave with three different championships.
A week after claiming the u19 AAU crown, BABC added both the u15 and u16 Super Showcase championships to their collection on Sunday.
The 10th graders began by sweeping pool play against Hoopademix, Indiana Faith, and LBF Stars before receiving a bye in the opening round of bracket play. They knocked off the Charlotte Dragons 61-46 in the second round, EAG Bigers 78-73 in the quarterfinals, and REACH Legends 70-60 in the semifinals. The final was streamed live on ESPN3 and saw a dominating 65-31 effort against fellow Nike program Boo Williams to earn the championship as Brycen Goodine scored a team high 20 points on 8-14 shooting from the floor.

The 9th graders began the week by sweeping pool play as well with wins over Team Showcase from Georgia, Team Winston Blue from North Carolina, and Team X-Factor. They faced the Under Armour sponsored Houston Defenders in the opening round of pool play and came away with a 56-52 win before knocking off Adidas' Team Carroll 58-41 in the quarterfinals. The semis was a 74-69 win over Adidas sponsored Atlanta Celtics while BABC defeated fellow Nike sponsored program Georgia Stars 66-53 in the final. This game was also streamed live on ESPN 3 and Quest Harris led the way with 20 points and 6 assists.
