The Truth 10u is a phenomenal group of young, talented players who simply compete on every possession. Jason Crowe Jr. led The Truth every game and was one of the more impressive players we saw all weekend. The kid is simply talented and exciting to watch. His teammate and All-Tourney member, Brandon Granger, was also very impressive. Granger was on fire in the championship game against #19 YouBall. Overall, this division is shaping up very nicely for SoCal. It will be exciting to watch these teams grow over the next few years. |

Pretty amazing to see four teams already formed in the 2nd Grade division. A couple years back, it was rare to see more than 4 teams competing in the 2nd Grade division after January. Congrats to OGP HQ on their championship win! |
