24th Bass Pro Tournament of Champions wrapup
By Joboo | January 21, 2008
What a fantastic tournament. We may very well be looking back at 2008 as a high-water mark in years to come. Strong individual performances, every team was impressive at one time or another, & some of the best basketball games the tournament has ever seen. Organizers will have a hard time topping this one.
Tournament MVP
- Erving Walker, Christ the King
The obvious choice & the right one. Dominated play in a number of ways over the 3 days. Came up big when the Royals needed him. This is a kid who is going to be great.
Father John Savage Award
- Ryan Shipman, Monsignor Pace
Edsel Mathews Team Sportsmanship Award
- Helen Cox Cougars
All Tournament Team
- Ray Shipman, Monsignor Pace
- Dominique Long, Waynesville
- Alex Hall, Kickapoo
- Dusty Allen, Kickapoo
- Greg Monroe, Helen Cox
- Ryan Pearson, Christ the King
- Erving Walker, Christ the King
- Demarcus Cousins, LeFlore
- Nick Williams, LeFlore
- Femi John, McCluer North
This must have been a hard group to select. Some players that I feel we are destined to hear from in the future were not selected. But it’s hard to argue with the picks based on performance in the tournament.
That’s it for this year. A big thank you to all the new visitors over the last few days. Hope you saw something you like & will come back again. So long to a great 2008 T of C. Bring on 2009.
