This past weekend in Gatlinburg, we faced some very tough competition. While we didn’t achieve all of the results we were hoping for, our teams continued to improve and gain valuable experience.

Our 8th-grade girls had an outstanding tournament, finishing 2nd out of 13 teams, and our 9th-grade girls also earned a 2nd-place finish. Our boys competed hard against strong opponents and are motivated to get back in the gym and continue developing their game.

The Rocky Top Tournament was a tremendous experience for all of our athletes and provided great opportunities for growth and competition.

To top it off, our 4th-grade team brought home a championship, taking 1st place at the All In Tournament in Tuscaloosa!
