Finished out our very first season at the Big Peach Slam Jam this past weekend in Atlanta, GA! 🍑♿️🏀 We went 1-3 for the tournament, and, as one of our athletes said, “It doesn’t matter if we lost… it matters if we had fun” - and that’s just what we did! We are proud of the way everyone hustled, played with heart, and demonstrated sportsmanship and their love for the game. Way to go, Cruisers! 🩵💛
