Venom Girls get 4th place at Pella MAYB tourney

Coach Acie Earl — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 03:53:21 +0000

In typical hot summer fashion ,the Venom Sports Girls did not stay inside and suck up the air all weekend as they braved un conditioned gyms of the tourney and fought hard to lose in the 3rd place game by only 4 points. Playing in a 6th grade tourney with only 3 sixth graders kenya , Gabbi and Amber, an fifth graders Sherry, Emma, and 4th graders Skyler and Dani. Great job girls to compete in 5 games over the weekend. Maybe it was too much fun time as Coach Earl got the girls a suite the night before as Coach Earl’s wife had to watch over 10 people in the room total,WOW . Coach Earl was glad he missed that night!
