Chris Scaife ~ Bigfoot Hoops Tournament

by

Chris Scaife made the trip to Houston this past weekend to play in the Bigfoot Hoops Tournament with Hardwood Elite. With three games scheduled for Saturday, this was sure to be a tournament with great competition.

The first game was at 9:00 am against Texas Titans. From the start of the game and the jump of the ball, Chris was ready to play ball. Chris started out with a quick steal and an assist immediately after the jump. Playing core defense and having to step up and play in the post position, Chris pulled down 5 rebounds and three steals. He also added 9 points and 3 assists. Hardwood went on to beat Texas Titans 52-44.

After a 4 hour break, Chris suited up again to face the Tarheels. He quickly grabbed a rebound and added an assist right off of the tip. Chris got in foul trouble late in the first half and had to sit out the last 6 minutes. After putting in 9 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists; early in the second half, Chris took a blow to his eye and was out for the remainder of the game. Hardwood Elite was able to hold on and get a 74-63 victory over the Tarheels.

But that couldn’t stop Chris for long. In game three against an even tougher San Antonio Lightning team, Chris came out again ready to play ball; but so did San Antonio Lightning. Their three point shooters came out running and gunning. But regardless, Hardwood Elite answered back and was able to defeat San Antonio Lightning. Chris put up another 9 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist. Chris’ played a complete game with core defense and strong offense!

In our fourth game, it was win – move on or loose – go home situation. Hardwood Elite would face West, a tough and furious team from Las Vegas. Chris got in foul trouble, but still was able to put in 7 points and get 1 steal. In a tough ball game, West would go on to  defeat Harwood Elite.

Another great performance by Chris and Hardwood Elite… with hard work and dedication, it only gets better from here!! Job well done.
