Brisbane Teams shine at Champion Schools

Schools from all over Queensland participated in the Champion Basketball School Queensland Tournament over the weekend at Logan. Teams that participate in the Brisbane Basketball Competitions did particularly well, with John Paul College Girls who play in the GBL being crowned Champions and Brisbane Boys College & St James College finishing 3rd & 4th respectively.

John Paul College girls managed to remain undefeated throughout the entire tournament, with their weekly match-ups against the best south players in the QBL playing against them in the GBL competition at BBI. Whilst their roster ranges from Year 12 students to Year 8 & 9 students the girls didn an unbelievable job to defeat Mountain Creek High in the final winning 69-47. The girls will now travel to Melbourne for the Australian National Schools Championships in December good luck girls!!!

Brisbane Boys College and St James College came oh so close to their pursuit of the Championship. In the first semi-final St James only narrowly went down to a very well drilled Nudgee College team which featured Brisbane Capitals U18 Gold player Seamus O'Sullivan, 64-75.

In the second semi-final Brisbane Boys College were unable to repeat their 20 point thumping of TSS from a few weeks earlier going down 61-93.

In the Bronze medal play-off the BBC boys were after a medal and to make amends for their semi-final loss, just having too much discipline down the stretch as they defeated St James 90-68. Congratulations to both teams!
