Jan 30th CAJ - 47 ASIJ - 27
CAJ jumped out to a quick 13-3 1st quarter lead and went on to another defensive won game. Again the offense produced seven scorers with everyone diving for loose balls and playing our tough full court press. The boys finished the season undefeated and head into the season ending tournament as the number one seed. Of course the boys know that their record for that tournament starts at 0-0, so they plan to play with the same intensity they have the whole season. Cheer the Knights on one last time as they try to finish the season in style. (Hats off to E.Petersen as he was able to once again join the team for a full game. And other hats off to all the teammates who took up his slack while he was out, especially K.Smoker).
Jan 23rd CAJ - 48 YIS - 24
YIS came out hard but was unable to handle to Knight's pressure. Again their defense determined the game. All the players contributed to a well balanced win with eight players contributing in the scoring column. These boys are looking awful tough as they play together and take no prisoners on defense.
Jan 23rd CAJ - 46 St. Maur - 32
Well, the second game of a double header proved to be a challenge as the Knights had foul trouble with K. Smoker picking up three early fouls. The half time score was 17-14 in CAJ's favor. The boys decided to pick it up in the second half and had a strong third quarter scoring 19 points with their full court pressure. They closed it out in the fourth quarter with their best balanced scoring game of the season. Five players scored six or more points. Even E. Petersen, who has been out with a broken arm, got some action. The team looks forward to having him at full speed in the near future. There is one remaining regular season game before the tournament. Can these boys keep their slate clean? Tune in next week as they finish the regular season against ASIJ.
Jan 18th CAJ - 27 Aoba - 26
Our CAJ A team played a nail-biter down to the wire to escape with a 1 point win thriller. We never seemed to find our rhythm through most of the game to pull away from Aoba. What could have gone wrong, seemed to wrong.....but we scratched and clawed, and hung tough despite experiencing some foul trouble, turnovers, bad bounces, etc. As Joe Paterno (famous college football coach) once said, “An ugly win is still a win.” Well done guys! The A team will need to be more intense in practice this week to be ready for 2 games on Saturday. Scorers: Kyle S: 13, Shawn H: 6 , Luke F: 5, Colin E: 3.
Jan 13th CAJ - 41 Aoba - 23
The A team played its first game of 2010, and its first game without their starting center.....so they came out a little shaky and had trouble finding its rhythm early against a determined Aoba team. But, CAJ turned up the heat in the second quarter to go ahead 21 - 11 at halftime. They kept up the intensity level through the 3rd quarter and were able to cruise to a 41 - 23 victory. It was encouraging to see several players up their game. We’ll need a total team effort to continue our winning ways. Scoring: Kyle S – 18, Joshua T – 7, Kye A – 5, Luke F – 5, Colin E – 4, Shawn H – 2.
Jan 30th CAJ - 24 ASIJ - 30
Leaving it all on the floor, the B team played a close game against ASIJ to finish out their season. The Knight's never gave up, taking ASIJ down to the last minutes of the game and making them earn their victory. Both teams playing a balanced game, the result could have gone either way with a few stops on defense or shots dropping in on offense. Regardless of the score, it felt like a CAJ victory with the intensity and amount of heart the boys put in at the end. It goes without saying that the B team made HUGE improvements throughout the course of the season. The boys have worked really hard and have laid the foundation for continual improvement and good things to come in the future. [noteworthy performances against ASIJ: Brandon N. -16 pts., Benjamin B. - 4 pts., Seth K. and Subaru U. with 2 pts. each]
Jan 23rd CAJ - 17 YIS - 22
In our first close game of the season, the boys played really hard and almost pulled out a victory. It seemed like there was a lid on the rim as our lay ups and shots just wouldn't drop while YIS was able to score hard-earned baskets. The boys put into practice their help-defense and did an excellent job in not allowing YIS to score at will. In the second half we were able to get some offense going and start putting the ball in the hoop. Coming within three points near the end of the game we had some opportunities to bring it even closer, but just couldn't put the ball in the hoop. All in all, a tough loss but great effort by the B team. Scorers for the game were Brandon N. with 9 points, Joshua T. and Ben B. with 3 a piece, and Subaru U. finishing with 2 points.
Jan 23rd CAJ - 40 St. Maur - 19
Playing in our second game of the day, the boys seemed to come alive and take control of the game from the get-go. Getting baskets in transition, running the plays well, while also reading the defense and being able to improvise, the offense flowed naturally allowing multiple players to score. Defensively, the team played as a unit, helping each other out and causing turnovers which resulted in fast-break opportunities. Throughout the course of the day, each player was able to score at least once. Noteworthy performances were Brandon N. (20 pts.), Kaiya W. playing big (6 pts.) and Joshua T. getting in on the action (4 pts.). A very good end to a long day. (last game of the season at ASIJ - 1/30)
Jan 9th CAJ - 31 Aoba - 11
First home game and first win of the season! Despite having two weeks off for Christmas break, the B team guys came back ready to play. Showing what they were capable of in the few practices leading up to this game, the discipline and sense of team basketball was clearly evident in this game. It's hard to single out players as every one of them played very well. A few noteworthy performances were Brandon N. (11 pts.), Subaru U. (10 pts.), Joshua T. (4 pts.) and Danny Y. and Reishi M. both finishing with 2 pts. each. The improvement that each player has made since the beginning of the season is clearly visible and I'm looking forward to seeing how the rest of the season turns out. (next games: YIS and St. Maur doubleheader @ CAJ 1/23)
Dec 12th CAJ - 16 Nishimachi - 39
Great game B team!! Things are starting to come together piece by piece as we begin to play more as team than just as individuals. Similar to the St. Mary's game, the second half was much better than the first. Offensively, things started to flow more and steals came in bunches as our defense picked up. Brandon Nakamura was a nice addition to our team putting up 9 points. Danny finished with 6, and Joshua with 1. All ten players contributed greatly with their hard work on both the defensive and offensive ends. Things are only going to get better from here! (next game: Jan. 9)
Jan 30th CAJ - 12 ASIJ - 32
CAJ battled and battled today, but was not able to pull out a win in its last game of the season. CAJ played it's best all-around game and played great swarming defense, but ASIJ had too many weapons. These guys win and lose as a team, they run the plays and work hard whether down by 2 or 10...I couldn't be more proud as their coach!! It would be great to have a few more games because we keep on improving every game. Practice hard in the off season, and then practice some more to prepare for the next basketball season. Fantastic job team! Scoring: Joseph L - 5, Michael C - 2, Jeremy L - 2, Danile Lee - 2, Steven N - 1.
Jan 23rd CAJ - 13 YIS - 15
Our C team gave YIS all they could handle for 4 full quarters. YIS lead most of the game, but CAJ battled back in the 4th quarter tie at 13-13 with about 90 seconds left. YIS scored a basket to go ahead at that point. CAJ had several chances to tie it up - even in the last few seconds, but the ball didn't bounce our way as we lost 15-13. What an intense game! Keep up the excellent effort! Scoring: Reishi M. 8, Joseph L. 3, Daniel L. 2
Jan 16th CAJ - 5 ASIJ - 50
It was literally a “David versus Goliath” game versus ASIJ. The ASIJ C team was comprised of all 8th graders and our C team is comprised of only 6th graders. ASIJ had height (one guy was about 6 ft. 3/4 inches), size, age and experience but I challenged my guys to do their best and not give up. The score was lopsided. We lost 50 – 5....but there were moments when we outplayed the Goliaths, and I couldn’t have been more proud of our team because they never gave up, ran the plays well, and gave glory to God by their attitudes and actions. Super job guys. Doxa! Scores: Stephen N: 2, Michael C: 2 , Daniel L: 1.
Jan 13th CAJ - 26 Alumni - 15
The C teamers and B teamers were divided into the Blue and White teams for an exciting inter-squad game. Both teams were determined to come away with a victory. It was great to see both teams play with teamwork, hustle, communicate well, and encourage each other to keep plugging away. The game was close for the first three quarters and then the Blue team scored 10 points to White’s 3 in the fourth quarter to win 26 – 15 over the White team. Blue team scoring: Michael C – 14, Steve N – 4, Joseph L – 4, Reishi M – 2, Benjamin B – 2. White team scoring: Subaru U – 6, Danny Y – 6, Yousaku O. – 3. Well done CAJ!
Dec 12th CAJ - 12 Nishimachi - 26
Today was our first game of the season and the first official game ever for some of our players. Our boys hustled on both ends of the court and we were down only by 4 points at halftime. We pulled to within 2 points in the 3rd quarter before the ball bounced Nishi Machi's way several times as they pulled away in the 4th quarter to win 26-12. The boys gave it all they had. Well done C team! I am proud of you. Points: Steven N. 2, Jeremy L. 2, Joseph L. 2, Michael C. 2, David C. 2, Yousaku O. 2.
