Happy Birthday #35 to RossTy!

Besides brewing up some trouble on the court, our guy RossTy is a starter for the Trail Point Brewing team off the court, as well.

Originally known as the Bus Stop Kid, he’s graduated to full-time Hoops Hero.

Cheers to you, Brother of the Bridges!

Why the target score of 52?

It’s a Fifty Burger with Cheese

Over the past 16 months, we’ve had a lot of questions (and negative comments) about the decision to move to a target score of 52.

Well, here you go.

-when we played to “full time at 36-minutes”, blowouts (and lack of effort) became the norm in the final quarter

-when we played to “full score through 36-minutes”, Los scored 52 in a win

-the math worked out to 51.6 points per 30-minutes throughout the first season, 52 seemed natural

-we’re trying to grow the League and get more games and players action on the floor

-the ability to get “Veteran Subs” into the new team lineups, more games/rivalries

 

We hope this clears up some of the clouds in the sky.
