Summer League is set for Michael Sanders Memorial Court at Wilcox Park

BeerCityHoops Summer League has a home

BeerCityHoops is headed to Wilcox Park for Summer League 2021!

After more than a year-long wait due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are happy to announce that the Gr3g League will host its Summer League at Wilcox Park on the newly renovated Michael Sanders Memorial Court after reaching an agreement with the City of Grand Rapids Parks & Rec Department earlier this week.

Starting June 15th, the first Tuesday on the summer calendar, our Summer League will take over the court named after a 2021 BeerCityHoops Hall Of Fame inductee, Michael Sanders. You can find the story here. MLive also did a piece, found here.

If the Stitcher interview is still available, Gr3g had the privilege of talking to Elizabeth Sanders about the project on the podcast we hosted back in September 2017.

Hawks soar to 2021 Championship

Red Hawks leave the Crew behind on way to inaugural Gr3g League title

 

It came down to one final game in the inaugural Gr3g red hawks team photo finalsLeague playoffs on Tuesday night at the Knapp Shack and the Red Hawks Of Force clawed their way to raise the trophy, 55-41, over the Creston Rock Crew.

The Crew got out to a quick 7-0 lead to start the game but found themselves behind 16-13 at the end of the first quarter. The Hawks were able to take a 30-20 advantage at the halftime break and kept their opponents at bay throughout the second half.

 

 

Mr94Feet led the way for the Hawks scoring a game-high 24 points, including 13 in the first nine minutes.

Nines stay atop the standings, City goes fishing

Seeding Round and Elimination Game highlight Week 11

 

It really all had to happen over Spring Break while players, coaches, and League staff were finally getting a chance to escape the pandemic for a few slight moments. Yes, folks, it all came down to who showed up in Week 11.

In Game A, otherwise known as the 7pm game (which normally starts about 7:12p, sigh), the Nines worked their way to a 59-55 win over the Crew to solidify their #1 seed in the Playoffs. With the win, the Route Nines achieved the storied honor of choosing their semi-final opponent. They have the option of facing off against the Crew for a second week in a row, but will have to weigh the return of players for both teams. MJ did his thing.

In Game B (we started at 8p, not bad), the Greens took advantage of an injury-riddled City team. Behind $ilky’s team season-best 43 points, the Green Ligers made a run just after halftime to send the City of Bridges into the 3rd game of the night and a date with possible elimination.

Oh, the terror of playing your last game of the season. That’s the nightmare the Hawks and City had to deal with. After a tough loss to the Greens and an immediate turnaround in a game against the hungry Hawks team looking to notarize the playoff paperwork late in the year. After a stretch of 7 straight losses, the Hawks won big in Week 9 and lost by 1 in the final game of the regular season. But Tuesday night, the Red Hawks of Force were flying a stealth bomber right up and over the defense of the City squad. “Green Light” Bandit led the way in the final 3 quarters, but really put it away in the 2nd. Mr94Feet and Berlin Wall complimented well and fan favorite Big Baby did his thing, driving the gallery into a frenzy.
