Junior: Royals Compete at the D'Youville Invitational

Seeking some competition from the GTA area, the JF Ross Royals competed in the D'Youville (Brampton) junior boys tournament this past weekend.

The Royals were matched up with Henry Carr (#1 junior boys team in the GTA) and Lincoln Alexander of Mississauga in their 3-team pool.

JFR got off to a nice start, handling Lincoln Alexander 52-28 in their opening game; Mo Hussien had 9 to lead a balanced Ross attack.

In their second outing, the Crusaders of Henry Carr were too much for Ross as they cruised to a 91-43 win.  Vlad Vamanu had 11 for the Royals.

The second-place finish in the pool advanced Ross to a "final four" grouping with the other second place finishers; unfortunately, they came up on the short end against Brampton St. Augustine (score/details unavailable from source).

Greg Schwann was selected as Ross' team MVP for the tournament.
