View from the Scorer's Table: April 23rd, 2014

By Kyle DaLuz
Twitter: @Kyle_DaLuz

I recently became an employee at Mass Premier Courts (MPC) in Foxboro and during my brief time there, I’ve witnessed some pretty intense AAU basketball games – along with the occasional blow out. As a scorekeeper, I get to see a lot of the good things that come along with amateur athletics – the competition, effort and hustle, and the desire to advance to win tournaments.

In contrast, I’ve also witnessed a few negative aspects that come along with AAU basketball. Certainly, the good outweighs the bad, but one vivid incident from this past weekend struck me.

I was assigned four games last Saturday afternoon. The first two were close, clean games that came down to the wire – the best kind of games to watch. The third game was not so clean or competitive. An 8^th grade team from Connecticut brought out an extreme negative that I’d never seen in youth basketball before.

This particular team from CT was struggling early from both sides of the floor. They had difficulty shooting and found themselves in a pretty significant hole early on. While trailing by about 20 points to a superior opponent, the two coaches for the CT team began a vicious verbal assault on the two referees, who were doing a pretty decent job from my view point of calling the game fairly and as best they could. Every time the whistle was blown against their team, they’d contest with an “Oh c’mon, sir! Are you serious?” When a call was not made on what they thought was a violation against their opponent, which coincidentally seemed to be every other time down the floor, a “That’s a foul, sir! Call it both ways, sir!” would be hollered from the bench. A few profanities were mixed in as well.

There is a difference in this sort of thing happening once or twice a game versus continuous badgering from tip-off all the way to the final buzzer. After about 10 minutes of constant yapping from the sideline, the head coach was assessed a technical foul and was told to remain seated for the remainder of the contest – which I’d like to point out, was an order that was not followed.

The game became closer in the second half, yet the team from Connecticut could not make up the deficit. The players themselves had no real issues with the flow of play until the second half, in which they followed the example set by their coaches and started to complain to the zebras as well.

With a double-digit lead and under three minutes to play, the coach of the winning team instructed his players to pass the ball around to waste a little clock and look for a good shot in the process. The coach from CT did not take a liking to this, as he hollered over across the scorer’s table, “This isn’t fun coach! This is NOT fun! This is not how basketball should be played!” The other coach did not hear this, but seeing as I was sitting right there in the crossfire, I did.

In the final minutes, the CT team had to play with only four players, because this coach thought it was a logical decision to foul while being down close to 15 points with under a minute to play.

Obviously, they were trying to make a point. One player was thrown out of the game due to an aggressive hit while trying to intentionally foul. The referee that had issued the technical foul earlier on told the coach that someone was going to get hurt if the aggressive play continued, and got a response of, “It’s all your fault, sir! All your fault.”

Nothing else really ensued post-game, but this was something that was so outrageous that I felt should never take place during anytime of competition.

Don’t get me wrong, I follow all four major professional sports and have watched many a sports games in my life. I understand games are intense, and sometimes tempers boil over. There is a difference between being frustrated with a call by an official, and being on someone’s case for the entire duration of a contest.

The good certainly outweighs the bad in all of these tournaments by a long shot, but this is one incident that stuck out in particular as something so ridiculous that I feel should never take place in youth athletics.

MPC Swish Report

Central Mass Shooters (9th) 57
MPC Swish (8th) 55

The MPC Swish suffered its first loss of the season over the weekend during the Mass Premier Courts Home for Easter tournament at the hands of the Central Mass Shooters who lived up to their nickname in this contest by nailing numerous back breaking 3-pointers en route to a one-point victory.

The first half was a game of runs as the Swish jumped out to an early 9-1 cushion, but CM Shooters fought back to take a 13-12 lead, its first of the game. The teams traded runs for the duration of the half, and the Shooters ended on one to take a 32-24 lead into the half.

The Shooters lead was as big as 14 in the second half before the Swish executed a spirited comeback behind some intense defense and timely scoring. After a missed Shooters FT, Ashley Sampson was able to get into the lane for a contested shot that just fell short at the buzzer.

Without leading scorer Anna Shaughnessy due to illness for this Friday early evening tilt, the Swish settled far too many perimeter shots and finished a dreadful 3-19 from behind the arch. Things didn't get too much better from the free throw line as the squad finished 14-25.

The play of Tess Sussman was a bright spot for the Swish. The versatile player finished with 17 points, seven rebounds, two steals and a block. The starting backcourt of Ashley Sampson and Nicole Gallagher also registered strong games. Gallagher nearly double-doubled with 13 points, nine rebounds, three steals and two blocks. Sampson picked up the scoring hole left by Shaughnessy, as the point guard notched 10 points, four steals and three assists.

MPC Swish (8th) 52
Bay State Monarchs (HS) 33

The MPC Swish bounced back from its first loss of the season with a solid win over a physical Bay State Monarchs squad.

The two teams were evenly matched through the first half with Swish holding onto a narrow five-point lead. In the second half, the Swish turned up the intensity and eventually pulled away from the feisty Monarchs 52-33.

Nicole Gallagher led the Swish scoring with 15. After missing the game on Friday with an illness, Anna Shaughnessy returned to chip in with 13 points. Kiera Fernandes added 10 in the victory.

Granite State Rockettes (10th) 55
MPC Swish (8th) 54

In probably the best all-around game I have ever seen the Swish play, their best wasn't good enough to beat the older team from New Hampshire as the Rockettes nailed a 3-pointer with three seconds left to walk away victorious over the locals, 55-54.

In a wire-to-wire back-and-forth game, the Swish took a late two-point lead that was thought to be the difference. However it wasn't meant to be as the Rockettes coach drew up and out of bounds play that saw his best shooter hit a deep three for the win.

In a game where all 10 players contributed in each half, the Swish were again led in the scoring department by Nicole Gallagher's 14. Anna Shaughnessy added 13 points. Tess Sussman turned in a typical stat stuffing performance with 11 points, five boards, three assists and two steals.

With the loss, the Swish dropped to 12-2 on the season. The Swish travel to Westport, Connecticut this upcoming weekend to lock up with some of the best programs in CT/NY at the Blue Chip Preseason Challenge.

8^th Grade Girls

The MPC Swish improved to 11-0 on the season after downing two 10^th grade teams at the Cape Cod Waves tournament last Saturday.

MPC Swish 69

CT Cobras 38

The Swish jumped out to a 12-2 lead and never looked back. Three players reached double digit scoring in the win led by Anna Shaughnessy’s 16 points on efficient 7-11 shooting and also hauled in eight rebounds. Kaylin Reen continued her torrid shooting streak as she tossed in three 3-pointers en route to 11 points. Combo-guard Nicole Gallagher slashed her way to 10 points and added four steals.

MPC Swish 42

VT Pacers 40

Initially not thrilled about having to play an 8^th grade team, the scrappy 10^th grade VT team was unable to outlast the local 8^th grade squad. The Pacers held a 20-16 edge at halftime, but the Swish clamped down in the second half and won a close battle. Again, Anna Shaughnessy led the scoring charge with 12 points and added seven rebounds. Tess Sussman nearly had a double-double with eight points and eight rebounds. Kiera Fernandes contributed with a little bit of everything as she stuffed the stat sheet with six points, five rebounds, two steals and two blocks. As usual, Ashley Sampson steadied the ship from the point guard spot and finished with seven points and three assists.

Bay State Magic Elite 2017

In a very loaded 9^th grade girls division, Bay State Magic Elite is still the team to beat until a team dethrones them. BSME, coached by Jim Wardwell, has captured two consecutive D1 MA state championships and finished third at the Nationals last summer.

BSME plans to attend the best tournaments on the east coast such as Basketball HOF Tip-Off, North East Elite Showcase, Deep South Classic, Commotion by the Ocean, Gym Rat Challenge, Nike US Nationals and Blue Chip Showcase in Philly.

This up-tempo team showcases some of the best players in the state including Jen Worden (Abington), Hayley Wardwell (Cardinal Spellman), Joie Grassi (Plymouth North), Meaghan Raab (Hanover), Haley Blasetti (Hingham 8^th grade), Ally Dillon (Braintree), Vanessa Nichols (Silver Lake), Ashley Cadorette (Dartmouth), and Gordon (Holy Name).

This team has a roster loaded with players that contribute on their varsity team already, but Coach Wardwell cites that the team goal is to have all the players make significant varsity contributions as sophomores.

I plan on following this team closely as they hit some of the best tournaments in the country.

Mass Premier Swish 44

Bay State Jaguars 43

Westfield State College - In a battle between two of New England’s elite teams, the Mass Premier Swish kicked off its spring season with an exciting one-point victory over Bay State Jaguars, 44-43. It was the first game of the season for both teams and the rust was evident.

The teams went into halftime knotted up at 22 and exchanged leads the rest of the way. The Swish held a four-point lead late in the waning seconds of the game before Jags newcomer Lexi Greffen (Portsmouth, RI) buried a 3-pointer to cut the lead to one-point before time expired.

Anna Shaughnessy (North Attleboro) led MPC Swish with a double-double of 12 points and 10 rebounds. Nicole Gallagher (Foxboro) filled up the box score with 11 points, 11 rebounds, three steals and two assists in her first game back with the Swish after playing the previous two seasons up an age level with MT Elite. Kiera Fernandes (Franklin) had a very productive game as she added nine points, seven rebounds and two steals.

Mass Premier Swish 59

CT Spirit 36

Westfield State College – The MPC Swish made quick work of CT Spirit and everyone contributed in their second victory of the afternoon. Tess Sussman (Needham) and Ashley Sampson (Foxboro) led the scoring charge with 10 points apiece. Kiera Fernandes had another solid game with eight points, nine rebounds and two steals.

Mass Premier Swish 40

Albany Falcons B 14

American International College – Needing to win this game to advance to the semi-final, MPC Swish came out inspired and jumped out to a 12-0 lead quickly and never looked back. Nicole Gallagher led a balanced effort with 10 points, five rebounds and three steals.

Mass Premier Swish 75

Springfield Lady Ballers 63

American International College – The Lady Ballers scored off the opening tip, but that would be the only lead the host club would enjoy against MPC Swish.

MPC Swish had four players record double-figure scoring in this shoot-out led by Tess Sussman’s 22 points and 10 rebounds. Anna Shaughnessy tossed in 19 points (8-8 shooting from the field), Nicole Gallagher added 16 and Ashley Sampson 15.

Mass Premier Swish 50

Albany Falcons A 27

Basketball Hall of Fame, Springfield – On the biggest stage, MPC registered its most dominant defensive performance of the weekend when they held the Albany Lady Falcons to just 27 points en route to their first tournament victory of the season.

Tournament Most Valuable Player Nicole Gallagher tossed in 15 points and ripped down seven rebounds to lead the Swish. All-Tournament Team member Kiera Fernandes had some of her finest moments of the weekend during this game and finished with 13 points, seven rebounds and four steals. Floor general Ashley Sampson added eight points and five rebounds in the win.

Points – Nicole Gallagher (Foxboro) 58, Anna Shaughnessy (North Attleboro) 47, Tess Sussman (Needham) 41.
