SAISA Basketball Champions

This year we were the CHAMPIONS!!!!!!! The tournament was an extremely fun event filled with collaboration and joy! The OSC team was undefeated. Throughout the tournament our team played well, making accurate passes and shots. The following picture is from our second game against Lincoln School of Nepal. We won this game 42-12! It was a great start to the tournament.


Throughout the course of the tournament, the team and I developed our skills greatly. My greatest strength as a player was stealing the ball. On the other hand I believe that my greatest weakness was shooting. Though shooting began as a weakness, I feel that throughout the tournament my shooting skills developed greatly. As a team our greatest strength was our defense. We communicated very well and were all aggressive players. We were the tallest team in the tournament, and this further strengthened our defense. The following picture shows our 1-2-2 defense.



Our best game as a team was by far the game we played against Karachi. This was the third game we played in the SAISA tournament. We won this game 35-8. Our defense was really strong on this game and we all played our hardest. The following is a picture of our point guard Kalila and myself running down the court.


The championship game was by far the most exciting moment of the season! We played our rivals from Dhaka. We went in with high hopes however within 5 minutes, we were losing to the 
Tigers 6-0. We struggled and we fought until we took the title. We ended up winning the game 36-12! The following is a picture of the team, moments  before the win!
