Bucks Boys Win 10U B Bracket Title

The Green Hornets Bucks basketball team of Jack Peery, Sam Gillespie, Owen Inglesby, Aiden Pearson, Cole Hoffmaster, CJ Callaway, Alexei Vilcu, Brady Benz, Johnny Kiddney and Gabriel Pollock won the boys basketball third/fourth-grade postseason “B” bracket championship.

“I am very proud of the boys and the effort they gave,” said Chris Callaway, who coached the team with Craig Gillespie. “They have played tough basketball all season long. With the exception of one or two games, every game we played was a two-point win or loss, so the boys were used to playing tight games. It was no different in the final as they pulled it out in the last 20 seconds. They worked hard and had a lot of fun in practice with some epic games of knockout.”

Perhaps the team’s most cherished accomplishment was the collection of nicknames they earned throughout the season: “Jumping Jack” Peery, “Cole Trickle” Hoffmaster, CJ “Big Country” Callaway, Johnny “McBuckets” Kiddney, Alexei “The Russian Rocket” Vilcu, “Brady Bunch” Benz, “Sam I Am” Gillespie, “Owen Me Money” Inglesby, Aiden “Perry the Platypus” Pearson and Gabriel “The Gabenator” Pollock.
