AAU Season Update
Team Notes from Coach Bill Vincent:
“Schooler 2024’s have been in many close games and have already had two of the games go into overtime. One of the overtime losses came from MN Rise. A week later the Schooler’s reversed the outcome and beat MN Rise by 5 points. One highlight would be a triple-overtime win over United. The Schooler’s are .500 right now with a 4-4 record. This weekend they took losses from MN Fury and MN Heat. They had impressive wins over SW Stars and MN Rise. In the SPTS League, the top 8 teams will compete in a tournament at the end of the summer with bracket play.”
“This group will bring a lot of bodies at you with a lot of different looks as they find their way through an 11-man rotation. With so many pieces to the puzzle it may take longer to gel, but don’t sleep on this team come July if they find the right chemistry”
